    Henry's T.

    Vegan Series, Part 4 So you're planning to go out for a meal with friends or family in Bend, Oregon. You realize that some of them are Vegan and some are not. Now what? Do you pick the Vegan place and ask those who are not of that persuasion to be adventurous on that particular occasion? Or perhaps you pick a place that has more traditional offerings and ask your Vegan friends/family to scour the menu for at least one suitable selection? Well imagine not having to ask either camp to sacrifice anything and going somewhere that offers a full menu that caters to everyone's preferences. How you ask? Take them to "Laughing Planet." Catering to the Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten Free, and Omnivore members of your tribe, I can't recall ever seeing such a comprehensively diverse menu. Not only are all the Vegan options clearly delineated on the menu, but all of the entrees can be made Vegan by simply omitting or substituting cheese for Vegan "cheese" and chicken or beef with organic tofu or tempeh (for no additional charge). No need to do any subbing when it comes to their chili or most of their soups because they are already Vegan. Does dessert sound good? Try their Double Chocolate, Oatmeal Chocolate Chip, or Snickerdoodle cookies. We tried all 3, they were all good, and they were all Vegan. No matter your food preferences I hope that you have an affection for our planet and want to see it cared for and cherished. Well these folks sure see it that way. Every sale of a kid's smoothie results in a donation to the "Friends of Trees" organization that is helping to improve and restore the tree canopy in the Portland area by the planting of more than 900,000 trees and shrubs since 1989. That seems just all too fitting to me given that one of our responsibilities as adults is to leave this planet as an inheritance to our children in at least as good a condition as we received it. If you are like minded then you gotta love their saying, "There Is No Planet B." Laughing Planet is no joke and deserves a visit from you soon! And that's...Henry's Take. #veganlife #bendvegan #laughingplanet

    Chips and salsa, tempeh burrito
    Jessica H.

    Bright and quirky place with tons of vegan options. It's Mexican-inspired but definitely a "Pacific Northwest" kinda Mexican food, so don't go expecting Mexican food like what you would get in Texas or California. We got the chips and salsa to share, my mom got the crunchero quesadilla, and I got the tempeh burrito. My mom LOVED her quesadilla and the dip was flavorful too. Our chips and salsa were also very good. My tempeh burrito was a little more on the bland side but it was fine. I'm a bit picky about tempeh that tastes too "ferment-y" but I didn't notice that at all with my burrito. I will say it was MONSTER sized and therefore very messy. Everything was super filling and good value for money. Overall, we really enjoyed our food and the quirky decor (love the plastic dinosaurs on the tables -- we got triceratops!) Would definitely go back.

    Delicious, healthy, and tasty... what more do you need? Their thai bowl is my favorite and their snickerdoodle cookie. Their bibimpap is pretty good as well. One of our other favorites is the chicken burrito made into a bowl. This place survived 2020 for good reason! They also usually have a coupon in the smart shopper for locals. Def a fav for those vegan and vegetarian dietary needs. For kids they have quesadillas and other healthy whole food kid options. One of our go to favorites in Bend and they have been here for at least 10 years

    Love this place! Always happy to find a spot with tasty vegan options & laughing planet has lots... including desserts!!

    deluxe vegan Bean & Cheese

    Laughing Planet is literally my favorite spot in town. i usually hate burritos but the bean and cheese here NEVER disappoints, the vegan cheese is spectacular, the size and flavor is amazing and the house made gauc and salsas are 10/10.

    Korean BBQ bowl

    I've avoided Laughing Planet because of a perceived notion that it was strictly vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, what have you. Being an omnivore, such restaurants have little appeal. Although I will eat vegetarian meals quite often (rarely vegan), I like having meat options. And that's exactly what Laughing Planet offers, turns out. This is a fast casual, bus your own table joint. Order at the counter, get a number, the food comes out in short order. While I'm fine with fast casual, I'm not so enamored of the bus your own table thing. A lot of casual restaurants seem to be picking up on that unfortunate trend. Mind you, while I have no problem clearing the table, I find that some others really aren't very diligent about cleaning their mess. So the staff has to come by anyway. It's not a big deal - I'm just offering an opinion. Food: - SW green chile burrito, ordered deluxe (sour cream and guacamole added). Very good and very large. I ate it all but maybe I shouldn't have. My only complaint is that because the burrito is so big, it tended to lose structural integrity and I ended up using a fork. - Korean BBQ bowl with beef. Pretty decent and spicier than I had anticipated. But the sauce is not great - a little too acidic for my tastes and it certainly isn't Korean. Tons of broccoli included, which is a good thing. Condiments are available at the back left, which is where the bussing station is located. Leftover containers are there, too. Prices are reasonable, parking is sufficient, staff is friendly. And they have beer. Wifi, no password. You will, of course, want to grab a dinosaur or two to attend your table while you eat.

    Showed up at 7:50. The two male employees walked over and turned off the open sign as we got out. Super lame. Supposed to be open till 9:00.

    We were just passing through Bend for the night on the way to Washington and looking for takeout…read morefood to eat back at our hotel. Found this place because of the killer reviews. It is located in the parking lot of a brewery that looked super cute with tons of seating both indoor and out. We got our dinners + 2 cheese plates (one for that night and one to take on our road trip). The lady that took our order didn't really like the idea that we were taking the cheese plate to go because she said they have a nice display and silverware at the brewery for it. We thought that was kind of strange, but when we ended up getting it, it was a super full box with a ton of goodies that must of been a bit of a challenge to get in the box. It probably would of been a beautiful cheese plate if we stayed there and had some beer or wine. I got the wet burrito for dinner that had griddle potatoes, smoked turtle beans, grilled mixed vegetables, roasted chilis, & caramelized onions smothered in hot enchilada sauce. I really liked it until my friend pointed out it tasted kind of like marinara and I couldn't get that out of my head. It was still good, but not the normal burrito taste. My friend got the fried rice and liked it, but thought it was better for breakfast.

    I had to come to the original Deschutes!…read more Came in on a Saturday midday for a beer and snack. Easily sat at the bar. Cool vibe to the original brewery! Enjoyed the Fresh Haze IPA. The bartender let me try two but that was my preference. The pretzel was delicious. I'm not a huge beer cheese fan but it was hot and delicious with the mustard around the outside. We were curious about the cask beer which apparently is warm (or room temperature) and flat- not what you look for normally in a beer! The nice bartender let us try it just out of curiosity- not for me! I'd come back to try lunch or dinner.

Yay! It was the best veggie burger my husband has had in a long time... he added avocado and vegan cheese (which did make it a bit pricey). Awesome that you can do many different sides including regular fries, Cajun fries, salad, chips, and more options... do wish they had onion rings however. I got the hummus plate which was good but not the best I've had. It came with a baguette which was more like garlic bread so I would have, personally, liked pita more. It also had a few olives on the side with a red pepper type sauce. I got it with no pickled onions. They had a great beer selection and even a few tasty non-alcoholic beers. Also had kombucha on tap which was delicious (from Humm). Everyone working was super sweet and the vibes were relaxed and casual. Our food came out quick and exactly how we ordered it. They also seemed to have spaces for larger parties, too. They also have a little gift shop if you wanted to pick anything from shirts, to bottle openers, to beer candles and more! Would come back again!
