    Maybe the best dive bar in the world. Friendly bartenders, ample TVs for all sports and great food.

    So glad a local stranger shared this secret gym with us during our last visit to Bend. Great vibe on the weekend evenings, late night. A very eclectic mixed crowd all in good spirits from my perspective. The star of the show of course is the fried chicken and holy God was it amazing! Better than Reel em Inn in Portland, which was my former number one go to

    From outside this place looks like a log house, inside you find plenty of beer selection, bar food and fun ambiance with very friendly personnel, love it!

    BEST LUNCH DEAL IN TOWN!!! Unfortunately bend has lost some of their more budget-friendly lunch options, resorting to sandwiches and salads upwards of $20 a pop. Ridiculous!! Not a C-Dub... Delicious, and my girlfriend thought the salad was perfect so everyone wins.

    This is definitely a dive bar but has some decent rustic charm and a fair amount of activities to help keep you and some new or old friends entertained. As with most dive bars the experience depends on who else is hanging out which can be a mixed bag here. The beer selection is decent and they have a decent amount of taps. The food seems to be mostly deep fried frozen type items so keep your expectations realistic and have fun. There is no menu or tap list so you'll have to take a look at the tap handles and at wall board for food. These type of places seem to be rapidly disappearing in the PNW with the rising competition and real estate costs going through the roof so enjoy an old time tavern experience while you still can.

    Fun bar with plenty of room inside. Lots of seating, pool tables, and a nice patio area as well.

    Watch out for the bar tenders rounding up their tips on your tab. Place smells like an old motel too.

    San Simon is a fun little hidden gem! Tucked away down an alley, it almost feels like you're…read morediscovering a secret speakeasy. The atmosphere is rustic, cozy, and a little exclusive, which made it a really unique spot to grab a drink! We stopped in right after checking into our hotel, and it was the perfect first stop to kick off our weekend. There isn't a ton of seating, but you can choose between the cozy indoor space or the patio in the alley. Since there were only two of us, we were seated right away. If you're looking for a relaxed place to enjoy a quick glass of wine or a cocktail before exploring the rest of the town, I'd definitely recommend stopping by here. It's a charming spot with great vibes!

    Follow the alley. Trust me…read more You know those places you stumble into and immediately think, "Yep...this is my kind of spot"? That was San Simón for me. At first, walking down the alley in downtown Bend, I honestly was not sure what we were about to find. Then we started seeing little fire pit pods, heated huts, glowing candles, and people tucked away having cocktails. It instantly felt cool without trying too hard. Walking into San Simón felt like stepping into some funky speakeasy hidden in plain sight. Dark lighting, moody atmosphere, David Bowie playing in the background, wild artwork on the walls that makes you stop and stare for a second. Just a great vibe all around. The kind of place where you sit down and immediately relax into the evening. The cocktails were excellent. Not overdone, not syrupy, just really balanced and well made. One of our favorites was the "Some Positive Feedback," which came with this sugar rim that looked awesome and added just enough sweetness without overpowering the drink. Bright citrus flavor, refreshing, smooth, and dangerously easy to drink. Then we asked the bartender if they could just make us something off the cuff. We said vodka, lemon and lime forward, not too sweet, maybe a little spice. They absolutely nailed it. Crisp, refreshing, layered citrus flavor with just enough heat on the back end to keep it interesting. Honestly one of those cocktails where everybody at the table takes a sip and immediately goes, "Oh wow." As a bourbon guy, I was also pleasantly surprised with the whiskey selection. The bartender recommended Stafford's Reserve, an Oregon bourbon, and I am glad I listened. Smooth, approachable, a little sweet up front with some spice on the finish. Easy sipping bourbon that fit the whole vibe of the place perfectly. What really made the night though was the staff. Everybody was friendly in that genuine way where you feel welcomed instead of "served." By the end of the night it honestly felt like we had been there before, even though it was our first visit. The outdoor setup deserves some love too. Bend cooled down at night, but the fire pits and heaters kept everything comfortable. We could have easily stayed another couple hours just hanging out. Pricing felt fair for the quality of drinks and atmosphere. This is not a dive bar pretending to be fancy. It is a genuinely cool cocktail spot that knows exactly what it is. If you are in Bend and enjoy craft cocktails, bourbon, cool music, quirky atmosphere, and places with personality, go find San Simón. Half the fun is finding it tucked down the alley in the first place.
