There are few places in Spokane that so effortlessly marry elegance, history, and hospitality as the historic Davenport Hotel. And now, it’s launched a beloved tradition: Afternoon Tea—a refined experience that invites guests to slow down and savor life, just as Louis Davenport once envisioned.
When Louis Davenport opened the hotel in 1914, his goal was clear: to offer a sanctuary of luxury and warmth in the heart of the Pacific Northwest. He believed in thoughtful details, personalized hospitality, and providing a gracious welcome to all who entered. The emergence of Afternoon Tea is a tribute to that legacy.
Served in the elegant Palm Court Grill, Afternoon Tea features an exquisite selection of teas, delicate housemade pastries, scones, and an array of seasonal finger sandwiches—all presented on fine dinnerware. The ambiance is pure magic. From the ornate stained glass ceilings to the soft rustle of linen napkins, every moment feels like a step back in time.
It’s more than just tea—it’s an experience. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, hosting a gathering with friends, or introducing your child to a beloved family tradition, Afternoon Tea at the Davenport is the kind of Spokane memory you’ll talk about for years to come.
Afternoon Tea is available by reservation on select weekends, and spots fill quickly. Come sip, savor, and soak in the atmosphere of one of the most iconic hotels in Washington state.
