Waypoint is a new bar concept distinct from BBC’s landmark downtown Bend brewpub location that promises an elevated experience featuring award winning BBC beers, specialty cocktails and a curated wine list. The purpose built space features a “Northwest Modern” aesthetic with nods to local landmarks and promises an “upscale Bend casual” environment where suit and tie mix with flannel shirts and flip flops. Multiple outdoor fire pits and covered outdoor seating along with a large sliding glass door creates a four season outdoor/indoor feel.
The bar will feature 8 Bend Brewing Company taps including the Waypoint exclusive, Grove Pale, along with a list of a dozen signature cocktails and a hand picked wine list. The 5.8% ABV Grove Pale embodies the spirit of BBC bridging the gap between the history and the future of pale ale utilizing both old school Cascade and new wave Strata hops balanced by a blend of 2-row, Golden Promise, Munich and Caramalts. BBC favorites Tropic Pines IPA, Trade War Export Stout and Ching Ching Sour Ale along with a number of Brewer’s Choice taps will fill out the taplist.
Located at 921 NW Mt. Washington Drive in Bend’s Northwest Crossing neighborhood, Waypoint officially opens Thursday May 20 at 3pm and will be open 7 days a week 3 pm-10 pm. Food is currently available from Sunny’s Carello Italian food cart while the future market hall restaurant spaces are finished being built. Once completed the 13,800 square feet The
Grove market hall will feature Italian from Sunny’s Carello, noodles from ThaiPas, burgers from Left Coast Burger Company, juices from Green Leaf Juice, fresh seafood from Sebastian’s Seafood and Specialty Market, THUMP coffee and Elly’s Ice Cream.
