The Holman Hotel's much anticipated restaurant and bar officially has a grand opening date.

Pacific Standard will be open from 6 to 11 p.m. Wednesday, allowing folks to try its Pacific Northwest-inspired cocktails and bites. The bar will host a family and friends-only evening on Tuesday.

The new bar is the second location for its sister location in Portland at the KEX hotel. It is led by Jeffrey Morgenthaler and Benjamin Amberg. The bar does not accept reservations and has a mix of bar, table and high top table seating.

Pacific Standard's staff hope it will quickly become a Salem favorite. It will offer classic bar food inspired by the bounty of the Pacific Northwest and spins on classic drinks, as seen at its Portland location. The ambience is described to be modern, comfortable and casual.
