One of the most anticipated beer openings in Bend in recent days/months/years is Boneyard Beer‘s long-awaited pub. Located at 1955 NE Division Street in Bend, the location was formerly a Chinese restaurant as well as a Texas Hold’em poker room and a short-lived taqueria, and was purchased by Boneyard owner Tony Lawrence at the beginning of 2016.

Various permit delays pushed out the expected opening and at the beginning of this year, things got back on track and moved quickly. Naturally the company has been fielding the question over and over again as to when the pub would open.

That question has been answered, and the Boneyard Pub opened up to the public this week! (The public opening follows a series of soft opening practice runs earlier in the week, which we were lucky enough to attend.)

The pub features 16 taps of Boneyard brews, cider, and a full bar. The food menu features food just as you’d expect Boneyard to serve, fusing a variety of flavorful styles with a focus on Asian and Latin American cuisine. We didn’t sample extensively from the menu, but what we had was good (ribs and salmon).

Here’s a first look in pictures of the new Boneyard Pub:
