Black Diamond Brewery & Distillery is Bringing New Life to Our Historic Freight Train Depot with the East Palestine Community Improvement Corporation

The Village of East Palestine is proud to announce Black Diamond Brewery & Distillery will become our historic and revitalized train depot’s first tenant! With an anticipated opening of Spring 2027, this partnership between the East Palestine Community Improvement Corporation (EPCIC) and Black Diamond marks a major milestone in the depot’s transformation, and reflects out community’s commitment for growth, heritage, and high-quality destinations for the future of East Palestine.
Black Diamond Brewery & Distillery is known across Ohio for their small batch bourbon, craft beers, and Appalachian-inspired spirit, with many locations based on celebrating regional history, revitalizing communities, and creating spaces that are built on local identity. Founded as a historic redevelopment company, Black Diamond has been able to invest in the adaptive reuse of historic properties and has established chef-driven dining concepts that are the cornerstone of their development model.
This East Palestine location will serve as a full-service restaurant centered around elevated tavern cuisine, and showcase Black Diamond’s in-house brewery and distillery products. With drawing this location’s menu from their Circleville and Waverly Taproom offerings, the East Palestine Black Diamond Brewery & Distillery blends the history of our village and hometown pride, while bringing new flavors to the table for residents and visitors alike. We look forward to welcoming this addition to our village and the momentum it will bring our continued efforts of the EPCIC revitalization plans, bringing this refreshed and reimagined transformation to life.
