Between the exceptionally good food at Hook and Plow, a most pleasant hotel experience, and a memorable trip to the High Desert Museum; our trip to Bend turned out to be a pleasure instead of the miserableness I expected. We had the Steak Tartare, the Chef's Board, the Blackend Crabcake, the Pear and Burrata Salad, and the Bone-in Pork Chop. We each got the cheesecake for desert and split the other dishes. This was more than enough for the three of us and we left full, happy, and with three large to-go boxes. The flavors of the various dishes were amazing. While all the dishes were vvery good, the standouts to me were the steak Tartare, the Pear and Burrata Salad, and the Cheesecake.

They changed the recipe so now they're beer bartered and no longer gluten free. You are limited to a few appetizers and salads. I tried the steak tartare and it's not great. It was my first time so I'm not sure how it compares to other places. One friend said it had a strong sesame oil flavor? The ahi poke was fine. I did like my salad- pear and burrata. The pomegranate molasses and cheese and pears were nice together. Overall, I wouldn't go here again as a gf person. The men at my table got the crab cake benny and the Nashville fish sandwich and they were very happy with their food!

We LOVE their coffee, the food is always consistent, and the staff is very kind no matter the day we visit. A little expensive, but well worth it for the consistency.

The pasties were not as amazing as photos showed. Basque cheese cake didn't melt in the middle once cut and it should to be a true one. It might be better if it wasn't so warm inside the restaurant. Eating warm food when you also are already sweeting is not comfortable and takes away from the whole experience. Canned sodas also a negative. Was very hopeful it would be amazing and take me back to Portugal. They weren't very free with their jam and some of the staff weren't the nicest or most friendly.(I think some were related to the owner). All and all it was a disappointment. It wasn't bad though it also didn't take us on trip to flavor town and party in mouth amazing.

I got the cinnamon knot and my wife got the lemon twist. I really enjoyed the cinnamon knot it was very tasty and the cinnamon flavor was just right. The lemon twist was also good but it wasn't that nice lemon flavor you could taste a hint but very light. We lucked out and found street parking near by, only street parking available.

I got a veggie bahn mi since I was going on a hike later I needed to grab n go. It had a very tasty sauce and was on a fresh baguette..but it could've been crispier. I also had a delicious chocolate cookie which happened to be vegan but I wouldn't have guessed it . It was deeelish! We ate outside on the small tables that line the sidewalk. Not much to write home about but was happy to score a table since this place has a constant stream of people.
