About The Bar Next Door

We’re Kiersten Mayes and Chef John Ernst — the team behind The Central Restaurant & Bar and its neighboring counterpart, The Bar Next Door. When we opened The Central in 2014, our vision was to create a warm, welcoming restaurant where great food and genuine hospitality bring people together. Over the years, The Central has grown into just that — a community-driven space known for its wood-fired cooking, seasonal menus, and a loyal local following.


In 2017, we expanded into the space next door with The Central Bean & Bakery — a cozy café serving breakfast and coffee to our neighborhood. As the needs of our guests evolved, so did the space. 


In 2023, we reimagined it as The Bar Next Door.  Despite the name, The Bar Next Door is a full-service restaurant — not just a bar. The atmosphere is casual and lively, with a menu designed for flexibility and fun. We love the social energy of small plates meant for sharing, but we also offer larger entrées for those craving a more traditional dining experience. Whether you’re joining us for a quick bite, a cocktail with friends, or a full dinner, there’s always something to enjoy.


Rooted in the same spirit of hospitality and care that defines The Central, BND is a place where locals gather, friendships grow, and good food and drink are always at the center of the table.
