On Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives ("From Crepes to Kreplach," aired 2011-03-14), Guy Fieri visited Waddell's Pub & Grille in Spokane, Washington, trying the Rube Waddell Burger, named for the eccentric early-1900s baseball pitcher, from a tap list of more than 50 beers, according to a Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives fan site. The pub also serves a Beer-Braised Lamb Philly Sandwich, loaded nachos, and fish and chips in a sports-bar setting with multiple televisions. Dinersdriveinsdiveslocations.com, updated 2025-07-15, listed an active Facebook page for the pub rather than a closure notice, and described it as a longtime local favorite for game-day crowds and beer enthusiasts in eastern Washington, with no indication the South Regal Street location had closed. The pub's name and its Rube Waddell Burger both nod to the pitcher's turn-of-the-century baseball career, a detail the site said locals enjoy sharing with first-time visitors.
