Pints and Peaks: Why Bend Should Be Your Next Oregon Vacation Stop

With all the beer drinking you'll likely be doing during a trip here, you shouldn't forget to fortify with solid foods. Jackson's Corner Westside is an adorable spot with patio picnic tables perfect for breakfast and lunch. They whip up mean biscuit sandos, salads, and coffee drinks using seasonal, local, and humanely treated ingredients. If comfort food is what you crave, sit down to fried pickles, mac and cheese, fried chicken, or salted caramel shakes with candied-pecan topping at Drake.

There are also plenty of locally made treats to put in your belly like Humm Kombucha or Bontá gelato. You can grab souvenirs for foodie friends at Market Of Choice. But you absolutely cannot leave town before putting at least one Ocean Roll from the Sparrow Bakery in your mouth. Made daily from scratch at all locations, the breakfast pastry starts with croissant dough before adding cardamom, sugar, vanilla, and an egg wash and baking it golden. It is better than a Cronut and far easier to get a box of.
