COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- Watershed Distillery, the producer of top-selling Ohio-made bourbon and gin, is permanently closing its Columbus restaurant and bar after eight years of business.
Watershed Kitchen + Bar at 1145 Chesapeake Ave. will host a final service on Saturday, the distillery announced late last month. The closure decision will allow the distillery to "focus its resources and energy on its core distilling business," the announcement said, with the restaurant being reimagined into a venue where Watershed can host special educational and entertainment events.
"Watershed Kitchen + Bar has been part of the soul of Watershed since 2017, and the people who made it great have poured their hearts into every dish, cocktail and guest experience, we've made together," said Chuy Ostos, chief marketing officer for Marussia Beverages USA, Watershed's parent company.
"We're deeply proud of what this team has built, and it's with sadness that we must close this chapter," Ostos continued. "Our focus now is to grow the distillery and continue to share the Watershed story in new ways that connect people through our spirits and an exciting new approach to using this venue."
The closure announcement boasted the restaurant for "earning national attention and a loyal following in central Ohio," with an "innovative menu, award-winning cocktails, and welcoming atmosphere." The eatery long served as an extension of the Watershed brand, "embodying the same commitment to craft, community, and connection that defines its spirits."

While the restaurant is closing, Watershed said its distillery and on-site bottle shop will remain open and continue operating at regular hours. Through Saturday's closure, Watershed Kitchen + Bar is open 5 to 9 p.m. Thursday, and 4 to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
