It's one of the farther stops on the Bend Ale Trail too but could be a destination for an afternoon. Bevel is all disc golf themed, which we appreciated. Their flights come on discs; their merchandise focuses on the game, and they even have a putting course outside where you can enjoy their beer while you play. This is primarily an outdoor venue, with many picnic tables surrounded by various food trucks making it fun a location for groups as everyone can get their own things. We visited right at opening on a wet and snowy afternoon, so we opted for sitting inside. They have a few tables, the main bar, and restrooms in the front room, plus other rooms with tables behind the bar which can also be rented for events. Their beer was excellent, as their awards show. The bartender was the only one working, but did a great job with service as well as sharing about their beer. If you love disc golf or beer, this is definitely worth the stop!

Having read the reviews I was prepared to order the stuffed croissant French toast. Last minute change of heart- I ordered the Gobbler, a roast turkey sandwich on a croissant with a flavor profile reminiscent of Thanksgiving. The sweetness of the fig jam played well with the poached pear, savory turkey and peppery arugula. Dessert will have to wait until our next visit. The pastry counter at the front of the restaurant displays cinnamon roles, scones, muffins and impressive cakes. There's even a marionberry and white chocolate bread pudding that would make a wonderful brunch choice.

It pains me to say this as I'm a business owner in this industry; I get the stresses that come with the tasks at running a business like this. BUT, they need to make some changes immediately. It was a "comedy" night and the host wasn't just bad at hosting, but obtuse, rude and disrespectful to me, my friend, the music entertainer and the patrons. A hostile and incompetent staff didn't provide any help or follow up. I can't get too into details atm for litigation reasons but like I've said, I've never had any problems in any bars with anyone before or have had such an egregious experience that left me bemused to the point where I felt the need to issue a 1 star experience. You have to really mess up to get a 1 star from me. To the owners: I'll be submitting a formal complaint and seeking financial retribution through the Office of the Oregon Attorney General, a secondary complaint will be filed with the BBB as I won't put up with this dubious behavior from your staff or from anywhere. This behavior is unacceptable, unethical and it ultimately places your patrons and staff at risk of bodily harm or injury. I'm going to get down to the bottom of this civilly, legally and swiftly. Oh and the food; I'm sure it's not bad but full disclosure I didn't have any tonight. BUT HERES MY TAKE: Beer prices were typical. Kids menu was decent but kinda small. The adult food was over priced but what else are you going to eat with no other food options near by. The menu is ok but you'll spend 10 Barrel money; min $17 for a sandwich. If you get a beer too make it $25. If you like tacos you'll spend $16 for x3 shrimp tacos!(Which Im sure are frozen shrimp). Those are typical prices like ten barrel, brother John's, etc. but that's a lot of money for not much of an experience or room to breathe and stretch your legs. I'd rather go to the Cross-Eyed cricket down the road and spend the same amount and have a lot better of a time without feeling claustrophobic, ripped off or threatened. For those first timers; IMO this wasn't built as a restaurant to accommodate an experience for guests. This is a tiny bar and tiny inside sitting area that was made to wrangle people in who are on a tour to make more money off of them. Not provide an experience worth your money. BIG DIFFERENCE. There's basically 8 parking spots I think. So plan on parking on the street. Or across the street. This was built to make beer and then the bar came as an after thought. You could go to Cheba hut on a Monday night or Tuesday night and have a blast with just $25. Again not bad food, just way over priced for the experience. Plenty of other bars/breweries that have an attentive staff who are friendly and have great food/beer options.

We were excited to explore the area and were simply looking at the menu a reasonable distance away from the food truck. While we were waiting, a "Karen" unexpectedly turned around and confronted us about a lit cigarette. We looked around and did not see any posted "No Smoking" signs in the immediate area, so we had no reason to believe we were violating any rules. In many places we've traveled throughout the country, smoking on a public sidewalk is allowed unless it's specifically prohibited. What made the interaction especially disappointing was learning that the woman confronting us was the Manager. Instead of approaching us politely or simply informing us of any local policy, she immediately came across as aggressive and confrontational. We tried to end the conversation several times by asking her to leave us alone, but she continued pursuing the issue and would not let it go. We decided it wasn't worth the drama and walked back to where we had parked. Once at our car, she continued to approach us, making comments on the way to her car, which unfortunately was by ours. Rather than calmly explaining the situation, she seemed more interested in arguing and making sure her opinion was heard. As visitors from out of state experiencing Sunriver for the first time, this was not the welcoming atmosphere we expected. One negative interaction can leave a lasting impression, and, unfortunately, this experience overshadowed what should have been an enjoyable visit. We understand that businesses have policies and that managers have a responsibility to enforce them, but there is a respectful and professional way to communicate with customers and visitors. In our opinion, this situation was handled very poorly. We sincerely hope no one else has a similar experience. A little courtesy and professionalism would have gone a long way.
