Area Guide

Where we actually eat & drink

Eighteen places, zero guesses. These are the restaurants and bars we order at ourselves: pizza nights in the Village, fresh pints beside the fermenters at the tap room, and Jackson’s Corner in Bend, where we genuinely eat every week. Sunriver spots come first; Bend is an easy 20-minute drive when you feel like a night out.

Where we have a tip (when to arrive, what’s seasonal, which location is which), it’s on the card in our own words.
