The City of Bend is currently accepting applications for an operator for the Airport restaurant.

The restaurant area is located on the second floor of the terminal building at the Bend Municipal Airport, 63136 Powell Butte Highway. The restaurant area is approximately 2,200 square feet and includes a kitchen area, dining area, and patio space.
The space is available for lease and the terms are negotiable.
The lease includes existing fixtures in support of a commercial kitchen, including but not limited to, a walk-in freezer, oven, stovetop, fryer, sink, hood, and deli station. No furniture is included or provided. New flooring was installed in the dining area in April.
