Breweries First
Our local breweries are an obvious place to start to find the best happy hours in Bend. Here are a few local breweries that offer some solid happy hours.
Deschutes Brewery
For locals in Bend, “Deschutes Brewery” and “local beer” are synonymous terms. The brewery, which has been around since the 1980s, offers discounts and exclusive beers to members of their Pub Club. The yearly membership offers first dibs on specialty beers throughout the year, discounts at the restaurant, and $3 pints on Wednesdays, along with other perks.
