On a recent trip to Bend, the Ale Trail took us to new spots a little farther from downtown. One was this location of Cascade Lakes, a brewery I had only previously visited in Redmond. We decided to come here for lunch thanks to a big menu. On arrival it wasn't too busy, and we had fun choosing where we wanted to be. They have a merch shop inside, lots of tables of various sizes, and bar along the back wall. Plenty of free parking outside. We all ordered some beers from flights to pints. We had a bunch of appetizer selections that we all shared, loved the street corn dip. It's a nice option to have lunch and enjoy some beers in the area. read more

Ok, back for another review, and I'm sad to say it's another 2. Two main issues here: 1. They're out of This IPA, one of their flagship beers, for the 2nd week in a row. 2. Service on a Friday at 5:00 was slow as hell. One bartender that I could see for a full house. People waiting for drinks at the bar. People waiting for drinks at the window. I had an open tab, but after standing there patiently for 10 minutes, we said screw it and left. I know it will get closed and have a tip assigned, but that was better than waiting any longer. Hire another server; your full house would seem to indicate that's possible. Going to be giving this place a miss for now; too many other places who have the basics figured out. read more

They snapped my real ID in half, didn't apologize, and didn't comp the meal. They covered my beer after admitting their mistake, but then never gave my group service or checked in again after. Working at a place that serves alcohol in Oregon needs to be able to know what a real Oregon ID looks like. Extremely disappointed by the staff and how they handled this situation. What terrible service. read more

Very dog friendly patio with lots of seating. Service was pretty quick and they kept checking on us which was very nice. Lots of drink options and food was tasty. A few Vegetarian options. Will definitely be back as the weather starts to warm up. read more

My husband is a big fan of Oregon State football and knowing that Cascade Lakes created a tailgate beer he had to have lunch there. No lines on a Wednesday for lunch so we sat ourselves at a booth. They offer your typical pub fare food and we opted for the Holy Grail brisket sandwich with onion rings and the Smash burger with sweet potato fries. The food came out fairly quickly and let's just say the onion ring and fries portion is insane! They really load it up! The smash burger was cooked perfectly, and dressed just the way I like it. The brisket sandwich was ok I've had better. It has chunks of brisket vs slab strips which made it a little hard to eat. The onion rings were 10 outta 10 dipped with ranch of course. The seating options were amazing, interior booths and tables, bar seating and an outdoor area that has just about everything. They even have rooftop seating! It was a beautiful sunny day so a great venue for enjoying a yummy meal in the sunshine. Our server was great and the place was clean! read more

I'll admit I'm biased. I'm a mug club member here and have been for the last couple of years. Their weekly specials including Thursday called Thirst-Days include $8.00 6 packs and $8.00 growler fills! One of their best specials is Wing Wednesday where you get 10 wings for 12 bucks all day! Where do you find that? OK, I'm done. I love the beer and Bend and there are a mini great breweries. Cascade Lakes has some extras that I think you might want to find out about... read more

Food and service were awesome. I don't post often, but this place is worth mention. If you're in the area stop by. Ask for Devon!!

No food but beer wasn't there . I like a good imperial. This wasn't it. Server clearly didn't want us there, although not rude it felt like a kind of fake politeness. Relegated to hot concrete patio; they refuse all dogs, including service dogs. Stay away, read more

New menu was not well received Not going to return till a new chef is hired Service was stellar as always Ambiance was great as always. Sorry to say it used to be our favorite pub read more

My wife and I met a friend (the pastor who married us, actually) here for dinner, while in town on a weekend getaway. It was close to his house, relatively brand new, and he was eager to check it out. He made a wise choice. Seating options include the interior dining area, and two outdoor patios: one on the south side of the building, and another on the roof. Well-stocked with a sizeable selection of IPAs, ciders, pilsners, and other brewed and hopped on-tap options, as well as some select wines, a few craft cocktails, and a full bar for custom concoctions. The menu consists of mainly pub-faire favorites: a smash burger, a BLT/Club combo, fish and chips, pretzels, nachos and other shareable starters. I went with the smash burger, and my wife the falafel bowl, while our friend ordered the BLT Club, and between the three of us, a variety of different pints, a Solstice Sour, an Old Fashioned, and a braided soft pretzel to split. Everybody's entrée was hearty, robust, filling, delicious, and cooked correctly. Our servers were all on the startlingly young end (some of them just this side of puberty, it seemed), but they were all competent, friendly, communicative, and above all, timely and efficient. Cascade Lakes is the sort of casual, welcoming local establishment that may not win any awards for pushing the boundaries of haute cuisine, but what they do offer is solid, tasty, tavern-style stapes, stout stouts, plentiful pints, and most importantly, a convivial communal space to come together as a family, or as in our case, to reunite with old friends, catch up on old times, and share in new, good times. Cheers to that! read more

I was already a little discouraged when i called to place my order, because the first time i called to order take out, they put me on hold way too long. Food was not real good and it was pretty expensive. My shrimp tacos were soggy and should have been double shelled. My husband's falafel burger was super mushy. He couldn't even finish it. Worker was very nice when I called in to place an order, but once I got there she didn't have any change for me to pay with cash. It was approximately a half hour to an hour before closing. I don't think we'll order from this place again. read more

I give it to the servers, they're trying. Trying hard. And kudos to them! But the product is baaad. Pastrami sandwich for $19.00. Smaller and more tasteless as the ones served from Billy Madison's school cafeteria. 5 bites and gone, not full... At all. Side of tater tots, might have been cooked 3 days ago. Hard, tasteless, and white in color. Good thing their beers are pretty tasty or would have absolutely demanded a refund. No wonder the place is empty on a Friday night. Piss poor food. Had to go across the parking lot to buy ourselves actual dinner, after paying for our fake a$$ dinner at Cascades. When leaving was asked by the server if we had fun? Yes, we had fun. Due to the company we were with. It's almost like they know not to ask how the meal was... BAAAD! read more

Cascade Lakes Pub on Reed Market - Pastrami Sandwich. WTF!!! - Brewpubs Near Me - Bend, Oregon

This is a well-designed pub. Spacious interior with a long bar and plenty of table, a large patio and their signature rooftop bar. I think it will do well. The menu is still being finalized so I'll not comment on that. The only negative I noticed is the men's room is too small for a pub this size. read more

Was super excited when they opened on east side. Everything was great first 3-4 times we went. Food, beer, roof top. Went there on Saturday, set outside and after 10 min of no service went inside and was told no service out there had to order at bar. Super pissed after server just looked at us and didn't tell us. When I complained about not being told he said well don't come here then. Reminded me of why we stopped going to west side location before they closed. Roof top bar wasn't open either, on a Saturday. Such bad service I'll find a new place. read more

Honestly one of the more terrible meals we have had out in a while. The 2x2 presentation was odd, the pork belly was inedible and all the sauces they ask if you want, cost extra. The 2x2 also makes it seem like you get a dessert so when the server listed our three options we ordered the cobbler. I didn't realize you could mess up cobbler but it was one of the worst cobblers I've ever had. We asked if it came with ice cream and the server said she didn't realize it didn't so got us a scoop. Nothing was included and $12 later for the dessert that was not included safe to say it was a bust. Kids sliders were not bad. I used to love this place but really never plan on going back at this point, it's getting so expensive for terrible food it's just not worth it. Service was good. Not their fault! read more

We met some friends here for dinner. Finding the restaurant was an adventure. There are two Cascade Lakes Pubs and our GPS insisted upon directing us to the other pub. Parking was easy. We found a parking space near the front door. We decided that the weather was nice enough to eat on the patio. We found a table for 6 that was shaded from the setting sun and out of the wind. The menu feels small; but, there seemed to be something for everyone. In general, everyone liked their menu choices. I was a bit disappointed in the brisket sandwich's small size; however, the generous pile of onion rings more than made up for the sandwich. Mac & Cheese lacked something; but, we could not identify exactly what was needed to make it excellent. On the other hand, the onion rings were about the best we have enjoyed in the greater Bend area. read more

This place packs all the punches. Its a nice location and a very sleek new building. Its got a great vibe. It was a nice surprise to see they were hosting bingo on the rooftop bar, I'm not sure if they do this every Sunday but it was pretty cool. My wife got the nachos and I got the french onion soup. Both dishes were very flavorful. We will absolutely be back. read more

We had a party of four that had dinner at the pub. My burger was cooked to perfection. we enjoyed chips and queso that was very good. the rib plate was generous and super tasty. to end the night we had the cheesecake of the week. it was the blueberry cobbler cheesecake and was delightful. Out server was attentive and helpful on selecting our menu choices. the food came out fast and the atmisphere was fun and lively. read more

Service was fine, but food was meh. Smash burger, fries & Cobb salad were a disappointment. Food needs improvement.

We were so excited to try our new neighborhood brewery tonight. We are already big fans of Cascade Lakes Brewery but so happy to have a new restaurant option close by. I'm obsessed with nachos, and these did not disappoint! I love the queso Blanco sauce so much and they added a generous portion of pulled pork too. The rib sandwich was one of the best we've ever tried and literally licked our plates clean from this meal. The beer was fabulous as usual and the restaurant was nicely packed for a gorgeous Monday night during summer. We are already planning on going back next week to get a few appetizers and beer at the rooftop bar! read more

I came in on Thursday night and ordered a burger that was amazing and had no complaints but the Mac and cheese we ordered tasted like they spilt bleach water in it. I ate the protein off the top but couldn't handle how bad the Mac was. The server didn't really check on us so I couldn't let him know. Wanted to like this place! But had not great time this time read more

Man, I want to like this place. The location is great as is the rooftop. But every time I go the service is pretty slow/inattentive. And the food is terrible. Beers are good! I always regret spending my money here. read more

Great pulled pork, turkey club delicious as well. Great service and staff. Filled up by 12:30 so arrive early.

This place is just what east side Bend needed! Love it. The upper deck is fantastic. Service is on point every time. Food is great!! My only complaint is this. My friends and I love chicken wings . This place has great wings but the size changes drastically from one night to the next sometimes. One night they ate big and juicy and litterly the next night they ate these wimpy bony things that look like they came off a pigeon. To be fair, that has not happened in the last 5-6 times went so maybe that's not a thing anymore. read more

A typical bar, indoor/outdoor seating and a roof top area. Tight parking lot. The waitress personal and informative. The bbq brisket sandwich nothing to talk about but the house salad crispy. My favorite beer.. salted caramel porter. Wow! read more

I wish we could give stars for separate things. 5 stars for the huge delicious chicken sandwich, service was friendly and attentive and fun, and great ambiance! The deck is cool too and the drinks great although tiny for $14. The bad thing was the smash burger. It was so small like child sized and flavorless. I dumped a bunch of ketchup and mustard on it just to experience something. So yea don't get that. Way over priced for that but the chicken sandwich was loaded and (chefs kiss) read more

This was my second time at the east side location. First time was pretty good. This time poor service and the food was almost inedible and I'm not a picky eater. It's unfortunate because they have a beautiful facility. read more

Great food, they've pulled it together since they've opened. Great specials, and great staff. Would highly recommend the smash burger and Cubano. The vibe is great and love the outside area and brew deck! They also have a great variety of beer and our mix drinks were phenomenal. Highly recommend giving this place a second shot If you haven't been since opening, they've really turned this place around and I will be going back! read more

Cascade Lakes Pub on Reed Market - Smash burger and fries. Great crisp on the burger and fresh veggies. Their fries are nice and crisp and very well seasoned - Brewpubs Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Probably the worst food I've had in Bend, in my 50 years here. I went in with my daughter & we ordered the fried mushrooms & zucchini. I have no idea what type of mushrooms were in there, but they were so overcooked that it didn't even matter. The zucchini....there were 4 pieces. 4. And, they had the texture of jarred baby food. I couldn't even pick them up because they imploded on contact. The server was lovely & comped them. I asked him not to, but he did. Bummed, cause we need a good place on the east side. Will 100% not go back until another place takes their spot. Yuck yuck yuck. read more

3.5* i Its nice to finally have a brewery on this side of town. They havent been open long, but it was really busy. I only had food and found the menu to have more than enough options. The pimiento hush puppies were better than expected. Crisp exterior, these babies were plopped on top of a marinara like sauce. 4/5 The nachos were small for the $19 price and was served in a bowl which made it hard to eat/ serve when sharing. We chose the pork on top and there was barely any meat. Two chunks perhaps. There were plenty of sauce on top which was nice at least but wished it had more cheese sauce and meat. Overall, I liked the flavor. 3/5 The ribs were tender and tasty, not sauced much which is fine with me. It almost tasted like the liqiid smoke though. The cornbread was unfortunately drier than expected and beans were undercooked. Maybe they should cook it with green chile and ham hock for flavor.. onion rings were alright. 3.5/5 Fish and chips: it came with two decent sized pieces of fish fried perfectly and the fish was flaky and tender. The thick potato wedge fries accompanying it was a bit dry.. As something considered "shareable" for $24, I was hoping the plate came with 3 pieces. My son ate 1.5 pieces so it wasnt quote shareable in my opinion. I do wish it came w beer battered french fries instead. 3/5 Overall, its a great spot to hang out. Theres plenty of seating outdoors too, even on the rooftop area and theres a little room for kids to run on the bit of grass and rocks they have. The food itself though is a lite pricey for what you get (specifically the nachos and fish and chips). read more

One of my top spots around town! Always fast and friendly, clean, fun ambiance, and the menu is unique for a brew pub - you CAN have a hearty meal without everything deep fried (but pro tip, the jo jos are way worth it). read more

Excellent food. Burgers can be tricky, but mine was cooked to perfection. They are repping for the health conscientious, as well- which is most appreciated! There were a several enticing vegan/veg options on the menu. The menu creation was careful and thoughtful, that was very obvious. Kudos to the culinary leaders! Service was good, working out the kinks on a new restaurant must be challenging, but they did great and all our requests were met with a smile. You could tell our server cared- a lot. Loved that! The vibe was very ambient; perfect lighting, music just right, and a next-level location! Super stoked that the east side finally has an excellent dining option! We will definitely be back! *KtW* read more

First and last time eating here!!! Just had lunch with a couple of friends. Will not be back. Food was iffy at best. Small portions. No service if you are sitting in a "swing" table outside. You waited your own table from start to finish. Then the cashier gave me crap for no tip. Hudge attitude!! In my world, I always tip well ...25% for good service. Bad service.... 0%. Will never go back read more

Don't expect the menu from the West side, totally different. Unfortunately, we had a less than stellar experience here. The service was great, the food, not so much. The babyback ribs seemed more like St. Louis style. They were tough and just barely over room temp. The beans were undercooked, and the corn bread was dry and not a good flavor. Took it home, not even honey butter could help it. I actually took the ribs home and cooked in the Instant Pot for 20 minutes on high pressure and then grilled. They were great after that, but I shouldn't have to pay $35 for ribs I have to cook myself. On the up side, everything deep fried was great...the onion rings, fries, pimento cheese balls. The Smash Burger needed pickles or some produce. We want them to succeed, but it will be quite some time before we try them again. read more

1st time there! Atmosphere, food and service were awesome. We will return soon. Nice to have the pub in the neighbor hood.

I come here on the regular since it's so close to home for me. Love that it's big and spacious so I don't feel like I'm going to run into anyone. Service is always fast and friendly. I come here mostly for the food specials! Every week it feels like they have something new so it's what keeps me coming back. Love the drinks as well! read more

Went for a Saturday afternoon lunch on the rooftop bar with family visiting out of state. Only ~2-3 tables downstairs and another ~2-3upstairs on a weekend, so it wasn't busy whatsoever. Views were awesome and we had ordered some drinks and food. Pretty soon after we had arrived, it became apparent that the lone bartender upstairs was being spread too thin for the amount of business since she had zero help. We ordered the BBQ platter to share at our table and the food was pretty good, we all liked the food. The issue was that there were no forks upstairs when our food came, and when the server dropped our food off, we had asked him for forks, and he said they didn't have any at the moment and he would bring some up. Well, after about 10 minutes it became apparent that he wasn't bringing us any forks. So we asked the bartender, and she was nice enough to go grab some for us, but unfortunately only came back upstairs with one single fork and we still needed some more, so we said we could go grab some ourselves from downstairs. Once we got downstairs and asked for forks, the bartender was extremely rude and aggressive and barked at us that they didn't have any right now and they were all still being cleaned. At this point we've had our food for 10/15 minutes and still couldn't get forks for the food we ordered? Eventually someone grabbed forks off an empty table and gave to us to use. Okay. Then as we were getting ready to leave, we asked the upstairs bartender about our desert that we never received, and eventually we were told to go get one from downstairs on our way out. Pretty ridiculous service at this point, but still whatever. While we were waiting downstairs for our desert, which took another 5 minutes of waiting in the lobby area, my step dad saw the rude and snarky bartender who gave him attitude for asking for forks for our meal, and told him he was sorry if he was being rude, but that he shouldn't argue with customers when they ask for utensils to eat with, the guy responded with more snarky comments about how there wasn't any forks and asked us if he wanted us to stop the dishwasher just for us, yada yada yada more bs and doubling down on horrible service. Whatever. He walks away, and the manager finally comes to bring us our desert, my step dad tells her that her staff shouldn't literally argue with customers when they ask for utensils, and this lady DOUBLED DOWN AGAIN and laid out more snarky comments at us blaming us for our bad experience and called us other fun names. Very nice guys, very nice. Stay classy. Also. "Why does this beer taste like popcorn butter?" -My Fiancée read more
