Bend Restaurants

Bend is a beer lover's paradise. Microbreweries craft some of the most impressive IPA drafts in Oregon, and almost a third of the visitors to Bend come specifically for the beer. The restaurants range from super casual to upscale formal, and most of them specialize in American foods with a West Coast feel. Pan-seared rainbow trout, lobster scampi linguini, and Columbia River steelhead trout will remind you how close you are to the ocean. You can also keep your feet firmly on terra firma with bacon-crusted bison meatloaf, prime rib, or chicken fried chicken breast. Wherever you go, you'll find yourself surrounded by active tourists drawn to the neighborhood for great skiing, hiking, biking, and, of course, eating.
