I absolutely love this place, we stop every time on our way either to or from Bend. The atmosphere is just great vibes, especially outside with the view of the beautiful mountains! The Turkey sandwich is and will forever be my go to! 10/10! read more

We come to Black Butte Ranch for 19 years now. Since they open new pool and bistro it is a big pleasure to come here. Staff is always friendly. Food is very good for the price they offer. We love Black Butte and really enjoy lunch at Lakeside Bistro. read more

Great Cubano sandwich and super crispy fries. You order at the counter and find a seat somewhere with super duper fantastic views across a lake to the Three Sisters and mountain range. The fire pits outside were going and the ambiance was excellent on this sunny afternoon. read more

Lakeside Bistro - Cubano sandwich (already half eaten...) and fries with a killer view. Inside and outside self-seating - Pizza Near Me - Sisters, Oregon

I took a friend who is gluten free and has a low tolerance for spicy food to Lakeside Bistro for lunch. She was excited to order a Margherita pizza with the cauliflower crust. Very disappointing. The crust was burnt at the edges, not the coveted leopard crust, just burnt. Served with appetizer plates that wouldn't begin to accommodate a slice of pizza. And the sauce was very spicy, too spicy for her to eat. We snagged the manager and mentioned our concern. She shrugged them off. Margherita pizza is not normally spicy and burnt crust is always unacceptable. A reputable restaurant would have comped the meal and offered an alternative. read more

It was lunch time, we were exploring Black Butte Ranch and decided to try Lakeside Bistro. When we walked in we were a little confused because half of the bistro is a tourist gift shop. We quickly realized that it was an order at the counter type of restaurant. My wife enjoys BLTs so she ordered a BBR BLTA. I ordered a Fried Chicken Sandwich. It was a cold and windy day, so we took a table inside with a great view of the lake. We could see a small herd of elk grazing in the meadow across the lake. I am searching for the best fried chicken sandwich; but, for now, this one was the best that I can get Black Butte Ranch - Sisters - Bend area. We will probably go back a do more exploring of Black Butte Ranch before winter arrives and enjoy another lunch at Lakeside Bistro, hopefully, outside on the patio. read more

What a great place to visit! The food is excellent & the views are spectacular! This is a great place to bring your friends! Indoor & outdoor dining - oh! Don't forget to bring your camera! read more

Expensive but always great service, and awesome food in a cool spot. Everything on the menu is amazing. The portions were huge when we went on 5/5/25 read more

Great lil breakfast spot with friendly staff. I ordered the avocado toast.. domes basic but it's definitely not and it's ohhh so delicious! If you're not a fan of arugula- don't fret- the lemon tones down its bitterness and makes for tasty flavor! Hubby got the breakfast burrito and enjoyed it. read more

Great little menu with a magnificent view of the Big Meadow and the Cascade Mountains .

Great spot! Great for coffee, glass of wine, if you have kids they make a terrific pizza after a day of swimming in the beautiful pool. Staff is improved since Covid...excellent comerrauderie amongst the staff...they all are sporting a smile these days! Ambience is always a pleasure. Always look to the left to take in the beautiful commissioned art piece called "The Invitation" by fine artist Kimry Jelen, Central Oregons 's pride and joy for commissions of your equines or pets! read more

Had breakfast today and it was outstanding! The Southwest omelette was delicious and the green salsa on it was amazing. I inquired as to where they got it and they said the chef makes it from scratch. We had breakfast there a few weeks ago and the avocado toast was also amazing. Service was excellent and the view is always spectacular! Great place for breakfast!!!! read more

Update on my previous review. The Mac and cheese was not worth $16. I've taken the dish home to add more ingredients. read more

The food is good. My problem is being asked for a tip after having to order the food standing up; go to the cashier to get a refill and having to buss my own table when I'm done eating. read more

The fried chicken sandwich with hot honey, dijon, lettuce, tomato, bread and butter pickle on a potato bun was tasty. Picked the sweet potato tots as a side - delicious. read more

Nice stop on the way home from bend/sisters. I like that you can seat yourself and you order from the cafe. Super easy system. Good quality selection. Shared a salad and pizza with my husband and it was a perfect light lunch. Views were the best! read more

Love this little bistro with a killer, relaxing view. Dreamy mountains and a lovely lake add to the delicious food. Burger and fries are my favorite and their salads are healthful and crisp. read more

The lakeside bistro has the perfect lunch food for a pool day!! The shrimp quinoa bowl was delicious. I also would recommend the chicken on a stick, hummus plate, and bbq pizza. The tuna salad sandwich wasn't anything special. Overall recommend! read more

Much nicer since being updated. Limited menu, but the food they make is good. The drinks are stupidly priced. It makes no sense

Absolutely beautiful place for a meal. We had a most spectacular breakfast here in the winter, came back for drinks after snowshoeing another day, and stopped for afternoon refreshments in May with a large group of family from out of town. I've never had anything I didn't love here. It is a bit pricey, but heck, everywhere is these days. read more

Beautiful views, wonderful, friendly service and good food and drinks! The patio is heated with big outdoor fire tables and it's pet friendly as well! A great place to start the morning as the hot drinks are great or have lunch or dinner - read more

Lakeside Bistro - a person flying a kite on a sunny day - Pizza Near Me - Sisters, Oregon

Beautiful view of the Lake, friendly staff and good food...what more could you want? We enjoy this spot a lot!

Super yummy food, it came out very fast as well. We ordered the turkey sandwich and the quinoa protein bowl. Very flavorful food, the bread was nice and soft, turkey was juicy, and pesto was perfect. Quinoa was delicious had a Mexican flavor and was super hot. read more

Lakeside Bistro - Turkey pesto provolone sandwich (no cranberry). Super yummy, soft bread, juicy turkey, tasted pesto. - Pizza Near Me - Sisters, Oregon

Tasty spot for breakfast at Black Butte Ranch. Pros: Their hash brown dish is out of this world (and I'm usually all about the sweet stuff for breakfast). They also have a delicious pastry with mocha chocolate and candied walnuts. The waffle was really tasty too. Cons: The berry scone we had lacked flavor and the flavored lattes were way too sweet (half the syrup would have done the trick). It's not a quick place for food - you can wait awhile and there's no way to call ahead since there isn't cell service...But the service is friendly and the view is stunning, so it works out :) It was too chilly to eat outside when we were there, but the windows inside allowed us to still take in the view. read more

The folks working here were very friendly. The food was good. The coffee was good. It was very convenient next to the pool.

Surprisingly good chicken sandwich. I wish the fries had come with a dipping sauce (maybe a garlic pepper aoili?) for the pricepoint. Felt welcomed by a really nice lady! Keep up the good work! Beautiful mountain views and cute gift shop. Good beer selection for the bistro's size. read more

What an epic little find for myself!! This place is surrounded by beauty and a contemporary mountain chic structure with amazing food and service. All of the staff were super friendly and provided great suggestions and really good food. There was a nice vibe with well to do locals that seemed down to earth and other grateful travelers and tourists just taking it all in. There were many comfortable chairs, couches and tables to catch up on email, have a work meeting or to just read a book. There was also a cozy gas fireplace taking the chill off on a cool fall morning. The Tennessee chicken sandwich was highly recommended to me and it was even better than expected. The oatmeal cookie was also heavenly. I am grateful to have found this warm haven!! read more

I dined here on Thursday, July 20 with friends. Service was fine in ordering, food delivery was slow to come. the restaurant was almost empty, and alol tables had their food. I ordered the Korean pork sandwich. This probably was the saddest example of pulled pork I've ever had. extremely dry tiny little shreds of pork that had nothing Korean about them. This was placed on a dry bun with a tablespoon of coleslaw on the top, which had no chance of helping the dryness of the pork. I have eaten at this restaurant many times, and can say it was a huge disappointment for me. My companions meals were fine. A standard burger and the other the fried chicken sandwich. read more

This is a very pretty, sunny and open bistro with AMAZING views of the mountains. The view and the nice atmosphere were worth the visit and they are the reason I am giving this restaurant 4 stars. The food is okay. I had the tuna melt and a cup of beer cheese soup. The tuna melt was very vinegary, but the pumpernickel was cooked perfectly. I had to eat the sandwich with a fork because there was so much liquid. The menu is small and there are not a lot of options I am interested in. The soup was okay, but nothing special. W thought his hamburger was good, but not great. We will return for the serene atmosphere and the beautiful views. read more

BEAUTIFUL AND TASTY! This place is such a great spot for lunch! Whole you eat some tasty food, you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery! There are fire places in case it gets chilly and there is seating inside as well. The patio is also dog friendly! Definitely a place to go for a great view and great food! read more

Lakeside Bistro - Kim cheese steak sandwich - Pizza Near Me - Sisters, Oregon

Amazing views and I had a fantastic bistro salad but my husbands burger was disappointing at best

Good coffee and large selection of baked goods. Their veggie pizza is also quite good. Gorgeous view of the lake and surrounding mountains. Cute little gift shop too. read more

Very neat & clean bistro. They serve pastries and specialty coffee. I went on a Thursday in the morning and there was a line. This is not a sit down restaurant although they have tables. read more

take out fruit parfait had one piece of fruit- a strawberry buried in the bowl with the stem left on! Jam mixed into whipped cream and granola with very little actual yogurt. all jumbled together. Awful. Latte was not quality coffee. Pass on this place unless you want only the view. read more

Good thing we called ahead...when I googled the Lakeside Bistro it came up as Closed today. Always a wonderful place to dine. If you're dining there for the first time it would be helpful if the staff gave a crash course in how their establishment works. It's between a self serve and table service thing. I'm never sure if we're supposed to bus our own table either. read more

We've seen this place written up in lots of 'zines and wondered about the hype. After the hike around the lake we were hungry enough to try for ourselves. The view from the Boathouse is beautiful & so nice to eat outside. Burger & chicken salad are solid & service was sweet. read more

We saw this place on yelp as we were driving into Bend and were hungry. The pictures and reviews were spot on. I would add that the staff were great and the views were to die for. My husband has the special wagyu burger and I had the chicken on a stick. Both were fabulous!! It is part of the Black Butte resort community. I would go back if it was on my next journey. We didn't get any but they had a great coffee and smoothie station. read more

Rude managment! Went in with our dog, was going to order our drinks and food then sit outside, which we informed the manager of that. The manager went on and said "I know, we can't have dogs in the restaurant." She did not give us an option of how to order since they do not do table side, bar tendered politely offered for us to go around the pool area and order from the window. As we were walking out to order outside we heard the management say, "I don't think they allow dogs over there either". We simple left and went somewhere else. Not dog friendly or local friendly, enjoy your seasonal peak. read more

Great poolside food options! We had the Hummus plate, Bay Shrimp salad, Chili Verde and Chicken Pizza. Stand outs were the Chicken Pizza ( chicken, Goat Cheese, Banana peppers and Artichokes) Bay Shrimp salad was tasty and fresh. Service was really good too! read more

Great venue, remarkable view, appropriate menu, well prepared and efficiently served. Prices fair and they like our dog (on the patio, of course). read more

I like the atmosphere and choices for full breakfast and lunch! Just wish they stayed open later -past 3 on weekends in off season. Staff are friendly, helpful and kind! read more
