LOCAL EATS
Bend may be best known for our microbreweries but there's no shortage of delicious restaurants. Here are a few of our favorites.
Jackson’s Corner is one of our favorites and conveniently located just over a mile from our house. Kid friendly and farm to table eats in a fun environment. The food is awesome anytime of day, but if you’re there for breakfast don’t miss the cardamom sea salt latte or biscuits and gravy.
