SANTA YNEZ, CA – The Chumash Casino Resort has unveiled its new third-floor food and beverage experience, The Sports Bar at Chumash. The venue features an expansive wraparound bar with built-in countertop gaming units, marketplace-style food stalls offering a wide variety of food options, 20 TV screens and two state-of-the-art LED walls showing the day’s top games.
“Our tribe is proud to offer this brand-new sports bar experience, which is unlike any other in the Santa Ynez Valley,” said Kenneth Kahn, Tribal Chairman of the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians. “Our food and beverage team set out to create a comfortable, sports-driven atmosphere where guests can watch a game while enjoying great food and drinks with friends. We think this will be the place to watch all popular sporting events.”

The full-service, seated dining and bar experience features six eateries, including Bok Bok’s (chicken), Cali Rolls (sushi), Lucky Buns (burgers and sandwiches) Let’s Noodle (ramen and pho), Lovin’ Tacos and The Sweet Spot (desserts). Behind the bar, there are over 20 beers on draft, including local craft options, domestic and imported, as well as Valley Fog, the tribe’s own hazy blonde ale. Also behind the bar is the tribe’s Chumash Casino Resort house bourbon, part of a partnership with the Woodford Reserve distillery in Kentucky.
The Sports Bar experience is also connected to U Play Sports, Chumash Casino Resort’s free-to-play sports picking challenge that’s available online, which allows guests to pick their favorite teams with chances to win slot free play, while watching the games live on any of the space’s televisions.
