An investigative report from the Spokane Daily Chronicle revealed that 'soft drink parlors' in Spokane were serving more than just soda.

Spokane, WA, October 18, 2026 —
An investigative report from the Spokane Daily Chronicle reported that “soft drink parlors” in Spokane were serving more than soda. The summary of the report does not identify the establishments or specify what else they served.
Details needed to assess the scope of the finding are not available in the information provided. It does not give the report’s publication date, name its author, describe the evidence gathered or say how many parlors were involved. It also does not explain whether the findings concerned one location or a broader pattern across Spokane.
The summary does not state whether the parlors’ offerings were lawful, whether officials investigated them, or whether any enforcement action followed. It gives no response from parlor operators or public authorities. Without those details, the report’s specific claims and their implications cannot be described further.
The phrase “more than just soda” is the only description provided of what the parlors served. It does not identify any particular beverage or other offering, so naming one would go beyond the available information.
Accordingly, the reported finding is limited but clear: the Spokane Daily Chronicle said that some “soft drink parlors” in Spokane served items beyond soda. The number of businesses, the nature of those items, and any subsequent developments were not provided.
