The and Now: Wilson’s restaurant
Fueling early Spokane downtown crowd was a trio of waffle houses owned by Stuart D. Wilson. He was one of the little remembered downtown businessmen of early Spokane who had a main business, lunch counter restaurants, and dabbled in other avenues, including real estate, a tavern and building supply business. His restaurants were for the budget-minded, with filling meals rarely costing more than 40 cents in the Great Depression.
