Welcome to Patera Temperance Lounge, a hidden gem tucked away at 1507 E Sprague Ave in Spokane, WA. This enchanting cafe is not just about serving drinks; it's about fostering a community where the vibes are as chill as the herbal teas and kava elixirs they offer.

Imagine stepping into a warm and inviting atmosphere, reminiscent of a 90s coffee house like Central Perk from "Friends," but with a modern twist. From the moment you walk in, you're enveloped in a relaxing ambiance accentuated by witchy, herbal decor that sparks intrigue and creativity. With plenty of outdoor seating, it's the perfect spot for a cozy chat with friends or a moment of peace with your favorite book.

The heart of Patera lies in its unique menu offering a range of herbal and kava elixirs that cater to every palate. Indulge in the refreshing Kava Mule or explore the delightful sweetness of the Mango Chai Cider. For those seeking something different, the Hibernation drink promises a comforting experience, while the Earth's Bounty Board ($17.00) is a feast for both eyes and palate with its colorful array of fresh, plant-based offerings. Vegetarians and vegans rejoice, as every dish is crafted with love and care, ensuring that dietary restrictions are honored and every guest feels welcome.

But don't just take our word for it. Customers rave about their experiences at Patera. Sierra Spicer recalls meeting up with friends and enjoying the friendly atmosphere, with nearby Girl Scouts offering sweet treats. Jaime M compares it to a quaint coffee shop filled with warmth, highlighting the vegan Southwest Waffle Casserole that packs a flavor punch with jalapeno cornbread and tofu scramble. Even those who aren't vegan find satisfaction; Joshua Awesome notes how his non-vegan friends fell in love with everything they tried! This is truly a place where everyone can find something to enjoy.

The appreciation for detail at Patera doesn’t stop at its beverages. Customers such as Jodi Bennin have declared the blueberry pancakes with lemon butter to be the best they've ever had. For those needing comfort without dietary concerns, the “Calm and Confident” tea has left a lasting impression. As Emily Landis aptly put it, this is the place to enjoy “the best mocktails/cafe drinks in town,” crafted with natural ingredients that promote healing and rejuvenation.

Patera Temperance Lounge is more than just a cafe; it’s an experience. Whether you’re popping in for a quick drink or looking to unwind for the afternoon, you’ll find yourself in a nurturing space that uplifts both body and spirit. So why not visit, and see for yourself what makes this the new must-visit spot in Spokane? Your taste buds (and heart) will thank you.

I met my 2 besties + the kiddos at Patera Lounge last Sunday morning, here’s how it went: Plenty of off street parking that was very close to the lounge. Girls selling Girl Scout cookies nearby (my friend snagged some for $5). There’s a ton of benches outside the lounge entrance. If you are planning on having a chatty meet up this is a great place to hangout while waiting for your coffee/tea/kava or breakfast! If you go inside, it’s absolutely beautiful. SO much life, color and vibrance. There was a live musician playing soft acoustic music. She had an incredible voice. The inside is a great place to relax and have a moment of tranquility. The tables could not accommodate two laptops so don’t plan on working together unless you take turns at one table. We almost brought our laptops to work but decided to have the full experience instead. I ordered a Lavender Cortado Friend 1 ordered a cranberry orange cheesecake and a lattè Friend 2 ordered a cranberry orange muffin and a Thai Kava, I believe. We all agreed what we ordered was spectacular!

90s hippie coffee shop vibes- Like a miniature Central Perk from Friends. Super welcoming and relaxed with friendly staff, elevated beverages and delicious brunch offerings. All vegan! We had the Southwest Waffle Casserole with jalapeno cornbread waffle, tofu scramble, black beans and cilantro cream sauce.

TRULY MAGICAL!!!! This business has truly captivated their travel vendor booth of wonderful nourishing mocktails into a BEAUTIFUL LOCATION! This is the new spot of Spokane! If you are looking for a place that DOES NOT SERVE ALCOHOL and is a place of healing, rejuvenating mocktails that are all natural and actually taste delicious! They aren’t just fancy drinks with an “over price” they are made seriously with high end ingredients! They make everything in house from their vegan snacks to tarts! They have sweet and savory options for everyone! Their Kava menu was incredible! I had never tried it before and they taught us all about the history and origins and the benefits! If you are looking for a new meeting spot that’s not just a usual coffee house (they even have coffee too!) Highly recommend their kava shots, and their EARTH’S BOUNTY BOARD! It was delicious balance with sweet and savory and in house vegan dips that were tasty and delicious! This place is my new favorite spot! Pa they even host events!!!! Everywhere you look is beautiful! Feels like you’re stepping into somewhere that feels like a homey space but also high end and chic!

We have been here few times and it truly is a great place. From music, to food, to Atmosphere I truly recommend this place to anyone who wants to have best mock-tails/cafe drinks in town and try The owners amazing vegan food. We went for a Valentine’s Day dinner and they were very nice to work with our dietary restrictions. 1,000% recommend.

What an unexpected and delightful experience I had yesterday! While helping out at a winter market, I discovered a brand-new vegan eatery I hadn’t known about. I volunteered for about six hours with a local roller derby club and was thrilled to find that I could enjoy every single treat in their display case. The best part? My non-vegan friends, who were also volunteering, absolutely loved everything they tried. They couldn’t stop raving about the food and even asked me questions about how the cheesecakes were made! Ironically I was the last one to try anything because I'm so used to not ever being able to eat when I'm out :-) The treats were incredible, the food was delicious, and the ambiance of the place was truly unique and memorable. If you’re looking for something a little off the beaten path, I highly recommend visiting the Patera Temperance Lounge. It’s well worth the trip!

The blueberry pancakes with lemon butter are the best pancakes I have had in my entire life. Highly recommend. Beautiful relaxing atmosphere, delicious drinks ( had the Calm and Confident tea), and as someone who is lactose intolerant, I’m so excited that I can eat anything here without worrying!

This place offers a nice, cozy environment to enjoy a light breakfast or lunch. I had their brunch waffle casserole which was pretty good and spicy! Just how I like it. The food isn't super decadent but rather simple and to-the-point. I also had their calm and confident tea which was very nice. The food won't knock your socks off, but it's a nice atmosphere to hang out and take a break in.
