Most Guests Hate Bend
You have to understand, Bend is an oasis. Fifteen breweries and counting in a town of 80,000 residents. Beautiful rolling hills and five-hundred miles of world class mountain biking trails. The sixth largest ski resort in the country. Some of the finest food on the west coast. And on and on the list goes.
Truth be told, guest hate Bend because they don’t live here. It’s that simple. Yet while you’re with us, allow us to share our favorites to make the most of your time in our very special high-desert destination.
Please call on us to make any reservations you may desire. We have great relationships around town and would love to ensure they know you are our guests.
And don’t miss the Bend Brew Bus, down at the bottom of the page. While you’re here, allow us to prepare this very special experience for you and those with you.

Anthony's Home Port, Bend. The menu here features delicious
fresh Northwest seafood flown-in directly from the ocean, but the real attraction
is this restaurant's location in the Old Mill District. The spectacular view
of the Deschutes River as well as Mt. Bachelor and the Three Sisters Mountains
provides such a stunning backdrop you'll hardly care what you eat (and it's
all fabulous anyway). Make a reservation for sunset; in the summer, sit outdoors
and watch the reflection off of the river.

The Blacksmith Steakhouse, Bar and Lounge, Bend. Several years
ago, this place was getting national recognition for its "new ranch cuisine"—Western-style
comfort food like trout, meatloaf, mac-and-cheese and lots of steaks done up
fancy and served in subdued comfort in this old blacksmith shop in downtown
Bend. Recently The Blacksmith has re-opened under new ownership and has become known for its happy hour.

Jackson's Corner, Bend. Much like Brasada's Ranch House restaurant,
this is the place to go if you want a casual, communal, friendly dining experience
with great food and more. This old market in a residential neighborhood near
Bend's downtown does many things, and does them all well. There is a small deli
and grocery section which stocks great beers, prepackaged foods and a few staples.
In the back, an espresso stand serves up truly excellent coffee all day. At
the counter, order meals that defy expectations of counter service.

the title of best Bend breakfast many times over. There's often a line outside,

on the menu as well as pancakes, omelets and all of the usual breakfast fare.
Lunch brings sandwiches and salads. In the summer, sit outside on the patio.
