Crux Fermentation Project

I love their barrel aged stouts. You have to go up to service counter to order. Even sitting at the bar with a menu got us basically ignored. We would have ate food but nobody asked and by that time, we decided to eat elsewhere. So I can't comment on food. Tip is reflective of level of service. If there is no table service then say so but don't expect a tip when you've ignored us to see if we need anything else, but usually sitting at the bar helps a little.

Wonderful brewery with a wide variety of great beers and styles on tap, plus special bottle pours like tough love or banshee series (all excellent). Cans and bottles for sale. Great atmosphere, plenty of indoor seating and large outdoor patio seating with a great view of the mountains, plus a fire pit. Taco truck food was just ok, wished I had ordered food from Crux , the pizza cart was closed when visiting. Friendly and knowledgeable bar service, tasters as well. plenty of parking. Trivia night seemed pretty popular. Worth visiting if you like/love beer.

We had a great time at Cruz. Sadly most of the food trucks were closed but the taco truck was so good! We are from Texas and they tasted like home. The atmosphere was very nice. We were there from 4-8 pm and the peak time was 5:30-7. Very family friendly. The food from the brewery was great. I had the pretzel and it was soft and the beer cheese was very tasty.

This would be my favorite place in Bend if they would add a window for drink orders. Such a nice big outdoor area that’s dog friendly, but they’re not allowed inside so I end up getting food at the trucks and leaving when I’d otherwise spend the afternoon there. Doesn’t feel right to leave him tied outside in the heat when they’re busy. Would come here often but until there’s a way to get a drink from outside, I’ll go elsewhere.
