Scalehouse, perhaps the only non-profit contemporary art gallery in Bend, is located in the large…read moreFranklin Crossing building on the corner of Franklin and Bond. The gallery can be accessed either from the interior of the building or from Tin Pan Alley. - Rotating contemporary art on display in a moderately-sized gallery space. Depending on the particular exhibit, you'll find photography, drawing, painting, mixed-media and sculpture by individual artists and group shows. - Features both upcoming and established artists such as Bend residents Nancy Floyd (2022 Guggenheim Fellow), Paula Bullwinkle, Bill Hoppe and Christian Brown, as well as regional artists such as April Bey and Sadie Barnette. - As with many contemporary art galleries, some of the work revolves around current societal issues. The recent COBIPOC exhibit, "Be Nice (White) ... You're in Bend," examined the notion that Central Oregon lacked racial diversity and sought to increase the visibility of the BIPOC community. Another recent show, "Crow's Shadow Institute of the Arts," featured work from the Umatilla tribes in Eastern Oregon. - Scalehouse was founded in part by local art legend Patricia Clark who did much to promote art and artists in Central Oregon. The gallery has an adjoining artist workshop dedicated to Pat. After viewing the art, you might mosey down the alley to San Simon for a cocktail or to The Stihl Whiskey Bar, also located in Franklin Crossing (door on Franklin Ave).

The Alfalfa Store is a great place to visit and have lunch or dinner. They have a really clean and…read morecomfortable area for enjoying freshly prepared food from the nice cart outside. Today, we had the Philly Cheese Steak sandwich and a strawberry smoothie - both were delicious! The staff at the store and working the cart are super nice and welcoming. Some of our car club drove out to have dinner this evening and there was plenty of safe parking and the staff was extra attentive and even gave our group some cool souvenirs. We love love love the donuts that the store sells also. (We often drive through Alfalfa on our way to Bend, just to get a donut). If you see that the case doesn't have the one you want, just ask - they always have more in the back! Their fresh coffee was an added bonus with that scrumptious donut, by the way. The only thing I'm bummed about is that I WISH I WOULD HAVE FOUND THIS PLACE A LONG TIME AGO

The Alfalfa Store is quaint and kitschy stop on the way out to the Prineville Reservoir. They have…read moregas, propane, ice, beer, snacks, lotto, etc. and there's a small sitting area outside. There is a decent selection of products and the beverage section received a nice expansion in 2015. The owners and staff are friendly and helpful. One word of caution: watch out for the ATM machine! It shows that the transaction will cost a $2 service fee -- but upon checking your statement, you will find that you actually paid $4 (or even $5) for the transaction. They will refund your money if you ask, but that might not be an option for those just traveling through.

My husband and I were visiting churches and made First Presbyterian Bend our home church for when…read morewe are in Bend. They practice "spacious Christianity:" they are Biblical, but you are free to ask questions without being judged for having them and ALL are welcome. They live out the love of Jesus Christ to everyone to amazing ministries and community outreach. They have an emphasis on underserved populations or the marginalized, but there are ministries for all different types of things. They have or have had an art ministry, an end of life ministry, they open the church doors to homeless when the overflow shelters are full, there's a group that cooks at Bethlehem Inn, and too many other things to list. (Some are constant and some change throughoit the year). I hope you get a chance to visit in person, watch their TV service or listen to a sermon online.

DO NOT RECOMMEND RENTING HERE. Wall Street Storage has the…read more"cheapest" rental prices in town for a good reason. The place is disgusting. The entire upper floor is covered in bat pee and bat guano. These photos are taken from inside a couple units showing the pee droplets. If you see piles of "dirty debris" above the units, this a mixture of dirt, dust, but mostly bat guano. The roof leaks water all over the building during the Fall, Winter, and Spring, and your stored contents are at risk of water damage. When it happens the tenant is not always notified. Only when the tenant realizes what has occurred, then this business will offer the tenant to move units and offer a discount. The roof leaking problems have been happening since at least 2009.

I had a planned 3-day stop in nearby Redmond, so searched DDG for 'small engine repair' in Bend. I did a walk-in at mid-day on Mon and explained my situation. I was promised both units back by Wed, but instead, I rcvd a msg later that very afternoon letting me know they were ready. In addition to the requested work, they also performed much-needed oil changes. In summary, the shop may be a bit hard to locate, but the price and workmanship were well worth the trip. Highly recommend!
