The Best Restaurants in Bend, Oregon
"More than a coffee shop, Jackson’s Corner offers a complete menu of local, humane, and organic foods and coffee. They currently have two store locations, one in the Eastside on NE Cushing Drive which opened in 2014, and the other opened in 2016 on NW Delaware Avenue in the Westside of Bend. Jackson’s Corner is completely transparent and honest, giving you a complete list of the farms they work with so you know where your food is coming from."
"My favorite things about Jackson’s Corner are too numerous to name, but high on the list is the fact that their eastside and westside locations make it easy to get my fix no matter which side of town I’m prowling. Huevos Rancheros at Jackson’s Corner. This is another spot where it behooves you to check the specials board, as their commitment to locally-sourced ingredients can earn you some fresh and tasty dishes."
"For those who need to know exactly what they are eating, Jackson’s Corner has you covered. Their menu is created with local, humane, and organic foods, so you know you are eating the best quality food available. They are completely transparent about the ingredients they use and where they come from, providing a complete list of the farms they work with."
"The Strictly Organic Coffee Co. has lived by the philosophy of “a sustainable cup” since they first opened in 1999. They aim to live and do business in a way that positively affects the health of their customers as well as the planet as a whole. The coffee they use in their shops, including their Old Mill coffee bar, is 100% certified USDA organic and fair trade certified through Transfair USA. They also aim to use reusable and biodegradable cups, utensils, and to-go containers to cut down on litter and waste."
"Are you looking for one or two new coffee shops to settle in and have a latte or a fresh pastry?. Strictly Organic serves USDA Organic Fair Trade beans, allowing you to feel great and leave happy knowing this business really cares about the world’s environment. The Box Factory location serves a full menu plus a quaint patio while you sip your beverage."
"Though it’s called the Original Pancake House, the one in Bend is not the “original;” it is pretty close though the first opened in Portland in 1953. Their dishes are made with the finest ingredients, including 93 score butter, 36% whipping cream, and grade AA eggs. Their signature breakfast item is the Apple Pancake, a single large pancake smothered with sautéed apples and cinnamon sugar, and it is sure to satisfy anyone’s breakfast sweet tooth."
"The Sparrow Bakery operates two locations in Bend: One on SE Scott, and this shiny new location in Summit West. Here, visitors will find breakfast sandwiches stacked on flaky croissants, croque monsieur on house-baked brioche, and lox-topped bagels, but the real move at Sparrow is to get a bunch of pastries — in particular, the bakery’s ocean roll, a flaky laminated pastry layered with cardamom vanilla sugar. The bakery is open for takeout orders, and now offers pre-ordered delivery."
"Known for its buttery, scratch-made scones and an entire case of gluten-free options, Nancy P’s Café & Bakery has been a neighborhood mainstay on the west side for seventeen years. High ceilings and walls of windows provide the ideal lighting for sitting down with the Sunday paper. Among Nancy P’s many savory and sweet goodies sits the unassuming almond croissant, and it’s worth branching out of your scone-ordering habit to savor its flavor."
"As someone who has been visiting Bend since I was a young girl, my first visit without my parents to visit my aunt and uncle was almost twenty years ago, and I can vividly remember Nancy P’s Cafe and Bakery. The cozy house with an abundance of green foliage accessorizing the home. Needless to say, one of the first ventures I set out on when I moved here was to find this bakery."
"At a glance: Cute cafe with excellent baked goods and sandwiches. This cute little cafe serves up some excellent baked items as well as sandwiches, salads and breakfast offerings in a homey atmosphere. While it’s a nice place to eat and relax, this is one of our favorite places to grab a sandwich and treats for a day of hiking and adventuring."
"Salud Raw Foods has some of the freshest and healthiest options in Bend. You may have a hard time choosing what to order at this raw, plant-based cafe and juice bar. The good news is, no matter what you order, you really can’t go wrong."
"Currently my FAVORITE place to eat in Bend- incredibly delicious, flavorful, fresh and thoughtfully crafted food. The staff is kind and obviously love what..."
"Right across the Deschutes River from Drake Park is Harmon Park, also known as “Boat Park.” This nickname comes from the park’s central feature, the much-loved boat fixture that also serves as a meeting place and play center. In addition to the play area, two softball fields are used as a soccer field during the fall season."
"Located on the north side of Bend in the Cascade Village shopping center, Olive Garden is an old favorite for many. Their well known dishes like breadsticks, salad and pasta make for a hearty, comforting meal. If you’re on the north side of town and craving Italian food this is a great spot to stop for a bite."
"We called all around Bend on a Friday night and no one was taking phone reservations only in person. We called and were able to get our name on the list..."
"One of Bend’s oldest and best-known riverfront restaurants, The Pine Tavern. Probably one of the most iconic restaurants in Bend, Pine Tavern has been operating since 1936, and is best known for mouthwatering sourdough scones with honey butter, and for the two pine trees (one dead, one living) that emerge from the center of the restaurant through the roof of the building. While those things are admittedly pretty awesome, so are the river views from Pine Tavern."
"Long-running, popular and traditional family-friendly restaurant near the river. Everyone should find something to like here, from the great half-pound burger to smoked-salmon salad to house meat loaf to rib-eye..."
