Release from NB City Administrator – The Urban Redevelopment Agency of North Bend recently awarded a combined Façade Improvement Grant and Redevelopment Assistance Grant totaling $49,930 to Wildflour Public House at 1989 Sherman Avenue in historic downtown. The redevelopment project is forecast to create seven new jobs, a public pub house, and a new cafe/banquet/meeting facility. Tara and John Moore co-own Wildflour, which has operated as a café in North Bend since February 2018. The couple plans to convert its café to a pub and expand into the former Dirty Work space next door. The expansion will provide more seating, a full bar, and room for brewing beer to become North Bend’s first brewery. Wildflour’s façade improvements include a garage door and indoor/outdoor bar with casual seating. The existing cafe awning will be transformed by Industrial Steel & Supply into a backlit metal sign featuring Wildflour’s logo.
