In a move that will certainly make quite a few of you West-Siders pretty happy, there is finally an opening date for the new Nation Kitchen + Bar that we’ve been hearing about for what seems like forever at this point.
The bar/restaurant is looking to bring the delicious magic that they first brought to Pendleton back in 2015 to the West Side early this summer.
The new location will be located in a former Westwood firehouse located at 3002 Junietta Ave, right across from Westwood’s Town Hall Rec center (and conveniently right by Westside Brewing, too). After receiving their final approval from the zoning board of appeals, they say that they will begin demo and construction immediately.
Stay tuned: you know I’ll let you know when there’s more news on this!
