Nightlife in Bend, Oregon
Bend is known for limitless outdoor fun, but there is endless fun to be had indoors when that sublime high desert sun goes down. Whether you want to kick up your dancing shoes, sing karaoke, listen to live music, or enjoy a night cap after a long day on the trails, rivers, or slopes, Bend has something for everyone.
Check out some of these spots to get the party started:
Astro Lounge
This local favorite draws a crowd in the evening due to their large bar, live music on the weekends, and tasty bar bites. We love getting a table on the outdoor patio to enjoy a delicious craft cocktail. They also have a great daily happy hour menu & food is served until closing – perfect if hunger strikes after a few turns on the dance floor.
Velvet
Hip and a tad quirky, this intimate bar serves their hand-crafted cocktails in mason jars! The party starts at 5 and goes into closing time. On a hot summer night, enjoy the refreshing Blue Velvet – blueberry vodka and house-made lemonade.
Seven Restaurant & Nightclub
Every night of the week is a party at Seven. Offering a full lineup of weekly events – Monday & Thursday Night Football, Tuesday open mic and karaoke, Wednesday trivia, guest DJs on the weekends, and more! VIP and bottle service available – perfect for birthdays, bachelor/bachelorette parties, and special occasions.
The Stihl Whiskey Bar
Perfect for a night cap, or a pre-dinner cocktail, this cozy bar specializes in a wide variety of whiskey – over 400! If whiskey isn’t your thing, order a craft cocktail, beer, or wine. They also offer a full menu ranging from ahi nachos, chimichurri shrimp, and their famous pan-seared pork chops.
