Westbend Bar and Venue in Lewisville Opens Under New Ownership

The New Owners:

Cory Coe, a seasoned professional in music, production, and event planning, had always dreamed of owning and running an event venue. His journey to Westbend began in the spring of 2023 when he started talks with the previous owners, The Breathwits, who closed the Tavern in September 2022. He and his wife Alyssa, soon connected with Josh and Whitney Shore, Mandy Barker, Bryan McGee, and Jerry and Susan Chapman, creating a dynamic team. Together, they formed a friendship that would become the foundation of their collaboration. As Coe puts it, “We started as strangers and now we’re like family!” 

 

“We have the same aspirations and goals,” Whitney Shore said, “and we want to pour into the community just as much as the community pours into us.” A few ways they plan to do this is by offering discounts to first responders and providing a family-friendly environment. Westbend celebrated their soft opening on August 12.

 

Music at Westbend: 

The Westbend Bar & Venue aims to become the ultimate destination for music enthusiasts. With a lineup of both local and renowned performers, their pavilion will host live music events almost every night. Additionally, they have plans to construct an outdoor amphitheater in the near future, further enhancing the experience for music lovers.

 

Food and Drink at Westbend: 

Guests can enjoy food from the Graze Grill, Westbend’s onsite restaurant that offers a diverse menu of delicious appetizers, entrees, and desserts, with something to please every palate. From flatbread pizza and buffalo chicken wraps to cheeseburgers and loaded cheese fries, the Graze Grill serves up a variety of classics. Families will appreciate the restaurant’s kid-friendly food options as well. They will serve brunch on Sundays, with a variety of mimosa options. Exciting plans are also in the works, including the addition of an outdoor bar and the installation of TVs on the covered patio. They will serve beer, wine, and seltzer.
