BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) – New pubs, Cassity’s and The Commonwealth Pub, have arrived in Bend serving up libations and hearty meals.

Bend, known for its vibrant craft beer scene, has added two new pubs to its growing roster on the west side of town.

Both establishments aim to offer unique experiences for beer enthusiasts and locals alike.

The Commonwealth Pub, opened a couple of weeks ago on century drive. Featuring 13 flat screen TV’s to local, national and world sports from every angle, enjoy a lineup of signature ales, with a British twist.

Co-owner, Dan Larsson explains the vibe of the pub.

“The vibe of the place is British inspired. We have an island bar… to expand it, to have it be the Commonwealth, so you can have Canadian, British, Indian, Australian, Jamaican, and a lot more flexibility with things.”

Just across the street is Cassity’s. It has moved in where Cabin 22, once was.

The pub boasts an outdoor patio with fire pits, perfect for enjoying bend’s crisp evenings.

It launched with the focus being on small-batch beers, and a rotating selection from local and regional breweries. The venue pairs its offerings with a menu of elevated pub fare and pool.

Bendite, Sawyer Demeyer says he’s impressed.

“Our buddy and I had heard about it. We've never been here. We just wanted to check it out, just see what the atmosphere is like. I love it. It's got a really kind of nice wood-theme. It's just this nice little sports bar. I think it's great, right across from Cascade West.”

Both pubs highlight Bend’s continued growth as a destination for craft beer culture.

Residents and visitors can look forward to these new spots becoming neighborhood favorites.
