The eye exam was impressive -- they use state-of-the-art equipment that made the process quick, thorough, and comfortable. I felt confident I was getting the best possible care for my vision. Elizabeth the OD is very personable and made the whole process very easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality service and stylish eyewear!

The frame selection is simply outstanding--whether you're looking for something classic, modern, or truly unique, they have an incredible variety of high-quality options that you won't find at most optical stores.

There is never any pressure, just expert guidance and a great customer experience from start to finish. I also absolutely love their recent remodel. The space is stylish, sophisticated, and perfectly chic. Cant recommended enough!

Like most millennials that have entered adulthood, I have very fond memories of going to…read moreblockbuster as a kid. It was our weekly tradition. I would save up my money for preowned movies, and video games. And it was always such a treat. Getting to see something new. I was definitely sad on blockbuster filed for bankruptcy and started closing locations. But I'm really glad there's one left on the planet. The location was easy to find, and there was a good but small parking lot. The staff was very pleasant to work with. I am sure they get tons of questions about how blockbuster is doing, how the store is holding up, etc. There was so much blockbuster type of merchandise, apparel, and gifts that it felt like it was its own souvenir store in addition to still offering movie rentals. Seeing the display of a late 80s early 90s living room, complete with couch, movie on VHS, Pokémon cards on the table, VHS covers, etc. really warmed my heart. I felt like it was a nine-year-old watching Dragon Ball Z in front of the Family TV again. There were plenty of displays for movie props, autographs, news covers about the store being the last on the planet. It was like a time capsule to cinema, life in the 80s and 90s, and today. Walking the aisles, definitely felt like I was back in blockbuster. For a moment, I felt like I was a kid again, looking for the perfect movie. Really glad this was here and that I got to go to Blockbuster in my adult life. Thanks for the memories!

You cannot be passing through Bend, and not stop here. This is an icon, the last blockbuster on the…read moreplanet. The place is a good size. The friendly lady I was chatting with was telling me that yes, they get people stopping in from *EVERYWHERE.*. They have it all. Blu-rays, and DVDs for sale, and of course, they have them for rent. The rental prices are very reasonable. New releases suspense, Comedy, drama, you name it, they probably have it. They even have sections dedicated toward certain stars, when I was there, they had a "John Candy section." The blockbuster.com webpage is back online, and I was asking the lady if she knew if Blockbuster was going to be making a comeback. She said she didn't know, but she made a good point. They should. Now, if you want to see a movie, there's no guarantee that the streaming service you subscribe to will have that movie. How many streaming services would you have to subscribe to? It would be so easy just to pop in and rent your movie again. You know what they say, everything old is new again. And of course, they have hoodies, sweatshirts, and T-shirts, including one that has the classic phrase, "be kind, rewind." What a fun store.

My experience with Riverbend Eye Care has been for optical services. Both for purchasing eyeglass…read moreframes and having eyeglasses made last year and prescription lens sunglasses this week. Had I posted a review based solely on last year's experience it would have been "AOK". But this year it's a big four star "yay!". Here's the summary of my experience and number 6 in the following list is why the rating moved up! 1. Convenient location with ample parking in a private lot. 2. Extremely friendly and helpful front desk staff. 3. Bright and welcoming office and optical display space. (Although small and so a tad cramped when you're trying to look at frames.) 4. Good selection of frames for men and women with mid range to upper range brand options including Helium, ProDesign, Vera Wang, Coach, Nicole Miller, Mykita plus many more. None of these are inexpensive brands but the prices here are fair and competitive for what they are. I was delighted by the price of the Nicole Miller sun-glass frames I chose, which were nearly $50 less than I expected! 5. They offered to deduct 10% off the total cost of my glasses, without me asking, given I do not bill insurance for them. 6. .A big improvement in optician staff service this year over last. This last point deserves explanation. The optician last year seemed competent but over stretched and always "on the run" frantically busy. Were it not for one of the uber helpful front desk staff who stepped in (and I think is now an optical staff technician) to help with selection and follow up, I probably would have walked out with the sale to Riverbend lost both that time and for return business. But, the glasses were well made. Which is one of the things that led me back in this year when I was looking for sunglasses. The other being "hip" but affordable style options. I found that this year, there are two new folks as optical staff at Riverbend. Knowledgeable about product inventory, skilled to help select the best frame for a customer's face and budget as well as in lens technology options. And perhaps most important, skilled at getting the right fit of the glasses for great vision. I could happily recommend Riverbend for glasses just for the experience of working with the opticians these days. I am happy to say there are other things - see list above - to add to the "I'm a fan" experience to recommend Riverbend for optical needs. My hubby will need new glasses soon and based on my experience, Riverbend will be his new "go to" place.

Located right next to the Old Mill District in Bend, it's…read morethe perfect place to start an outdoor adventure and then enjoy lunch or dinner nearby afterward. The staff was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful in choosing the right paddleboard for us. We rented stand-up paddleboards for one hour for $30, with the option to extend to two hours for $40, which is a great value. The river is beautiful, peaceful, and full of interesting scenery. There is always something to see along the way, making the experience fun and relaxing at the same time. And don't be shy about jumping into the water if the conditions allow--it can be part of the fun! Just be sure to follow the safety instructions provided before your adventure begins. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe to anyone visiting Bend.

On a Sunday morning, after exploring Bend and attending a concert the night before, my husband and…read moreI decided that we wanted to float the Deschutes River. Luckily, we managed to do a walk-up appointment and get our tubes for floating. They do offer online reservations, more than 24 hours in advance, but they had plenty of inner tubes so a reservation was not needed that particular day. From start to finish, they made the entire process extremely easy and seamless. From being able to park your car and get a ride with your inner tube to the drop off point and then being picked back up by the shuttle and returned to the parking lot, and everything in between. They provided us with a good safety briefing as well as the opportunity to leave our car keys since I had not thought about bringing a waterproof pouch. For just about $30 per person, it was well worth the experience and took us about two hours, but we did stop after the rapids and spend some time just swimming before continuing on. If you are a local or just visiting the Bend area, I cannot recommend floating the river enough.

The staff are quick to help and are great at fittings. It might take a few times to get it right, but it takes just a few minutes for them to help you out. I picked a pair of pricier frames, but you can grab a trendy pair of frames starting as low as $29-39.00. Loved their selection, and felt comfortable trying on as many pairs as I wanted before I settled on my frames. For a first time eyeglass wearer, I think this was a great experience!
