Perfect Stop After the River Trail…read more After a walk along the Deschutes River Trail, we stopped into Sisters Coffee Company for coffee and a quick pastry break and were glad we did. Friendly staff, hot fresh coffee, and a great selection of baked goods made this an easy win. The standout was the jackfruit corn blueberry muffin, crisp on top, moist in the middle, and surprisingly flavorful without being overly sweet. If you are in the Bend district area and need a good coffee stop, this place is worth checking out.

If you're in the Old Mill area, Sisters Coffee is absolutely worth a stop. The location itself is…read moreperfect for grabbing a drink and enjoying the scenery. What really sets them apart are their rotating barista creations, which keep the menu fresh and fun. There's always something new to try, and you can tell a lot of thought goes into each drink. Even better, their syrups are made in-house, giving everything a more natural, elevated flavor you don't get at most coffee spots. I also appreciate that they offer ceremonial matcha, which is a nice touch for matcha lovers looking for quality. Great drinks, creative options, and a fantastic location--definitely a go-to when visiting the Old Mill.

It's such a cute little spot, in what seems like an old home. The high ceilings just add to the coziness with greens and local art. They have indoor and outdoor seating as well. The coffee bar was staffed with friendly people. I had a giant jar of black iced cold brew, my favorite on a cool but sunny day. Prices are reasonable. They have a restroom, WiFi, and outlooks and seemed many were enjoying using it as an office.

The service was quick & the inside decor looks like you're walking straight into an episode of the Gilmore girls. What a cute spot, filled with tons of crystals that people have randomly left and gifted to the store. Kylie is very particular with coffee and she loves it. Huge behavioral Friday stretch, she even went for a combo of soy and almond milk. Yannick was frustrated because he thought jack worked at spork but ended up ordering the little bear tea .

We came here for a weekend lunch, ordered baguette sandwiches, coffees, and a hazelnut cookie. All were delicious and they had lots to choose from!

I heard from everyone to try an Ocean Roll from Sparrow, but I've had Scandinavian cardamon based…read moretreats before and I know I don't enjoy that flavor profile. I looked around for something similar, but less the cardamon and came across Cafe des Chutes. We visited at 9 am on a Sunday and it wasn't too crowded at all, with only a single person ahead. They have plenty of seating and I think most people decide to eat their treats in the cafe; we had to hit the trail though, so we got ours to go to eat while hiking. Mango Sticky Rice Honey Glazed Croissant ($6.25) - Woah, this is an exceptionally sticky pastry, so sticky it's actually a little cumbersome to eat since the glaze spreads on any surface it touches and becomes very difficult to remove. The glaze tastes just like fresh honey - in fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it were mostly honey. There's not much mango flavor until closer to the center, along with another flavor of something very fragrant almost flowery They sprinkle coconut flakes on top, giving a somewhat fruity flavor. The croissant itself is very good - great crust, nicely flaky and crisp with a great texture on the interior, chewy and airy. The lamination seems to be good based on a cursory inspection, but I didn't have a sharp bread knife on me for a clean cut as I usually do. The pastry is very sweet and the glaze covers up the flavor of the croissant entirely. (5/5) Oregon Roll ($6.25) - This base, on the other hand, is really buttery, combining the great lamination, crispy and flaky, with great flavor. There's a fantastic honeycomb texture on the inside combined with the perfect chewiness. They do add a marionberry swirl on the interior, which is pretty obviously included in terms of color, but can't really be tasted on top of the croissant butteriness. On top, they spread a spiced hazelnut glaze, sweet and nutty, almost like peanut butter in texture mixed with butter. Delicious pastry overall. (5/5) Savory Bread Pudding ($10) - This is a super dense and heavy (in weight) bread pudding baked in a muffin mold. They offer to heat it up and it's a really good idea to eat this warmed. We opted to get it cold since we weren't going to eat it for a couple of hours (for a picnic lunch) and it basically wasn't edible, with super dense, bitter and stale tasting bread, making it hard to even stick a fork into the top. We ended up waiting until we got to the hotel room to heat it up the next morning for breakfast, which made it much more palatable. There's some mushroom essence with tons of black pepper and a dense yet pleasingly chewy bread. Cheese is baked on top and there's a little vegetal bitterness from spinach. Not rating this since we ate it the next day. Overall I enjoyed my treats from Cafe des Chutes. I would visit again the next time I'm in Bend. Bathrooms - Tiny room near the front. The water heater takes up some of the space inside, so it's quite warm in the room

You really can't beat the ambience in downtown Bend, very pretty in a very cool place to walk around in. The outside seating area at this coffee shop blew my mind. You're on a grassy hill overlooking the river and on the other side of the river there's deer walking by.... Gonna say I might need to move here.

sparrow bakery in bend is operating at a level that doesn't fully make sense…read more this is S tier. not "good bakery" not "great local spot." this is top of the system everyone talks about the ocean roll and yeah... correct. cardamom, sugar, whatever else is happening in there--it works. you take a bite and immediately understand why people bring it up like it's a shared reference point but the real thing is everything else all the small moves. the way the line flows. the timing. how orders land. how people are acknowledged without slowing anything down. it's a bunch of tiny decisions stacked perfectly and no one even notices because it feels natural morning crowd is serious. you'll see deals happening. laptops open but not in an annoying way. people choosing this place on purpose and it's busy. consistently. like if you're trying to figure out if something is good just look at the door situation. it tells you everything honestly the only concern is the pricing feels too reasonable for what they're doing. like i almost want to step in and say guys you might be underestimating yourselves but maybe that's part of it elite spot. bend is lucky this exists
