    Just a short walk from my stay at McMenamins, Roam was the perfect breakfast stop. I ordered the Signature Breakfast with eggs, bacon, potatoes, and toast--it totally hit the spot. I did add avocado for an extra charge, though next time I might skip it since the portion didn't quite match the price. Located inside the Oxford Hotel, Roam offers a beautiful, relaxing space that's perfect for a leisurely morning meal. Great service, great atmosphere, and a solid breakfast overall!

    We were staying at the adjacent Oxford Hotel and came in for a late bite after settling in. Sleek, clean space dressed in black and white with some natural green and brown highlights. I especially appreciated their seasonally appropriate gourd displays scattered around the place. It wasn't busy at all so we were seated right away in a booth near the entry to the kitchen. Friendly service from Jeff. Husband really enjoyed his Fritz Old Fashioned. I opted for a glass of Chardonnay. I wasn't too hungry so went for the Caesar salad. The garlic-roasted chickpeas and farro were a fun spin on this classic and the croutons may have been the crunchiest I've ever experienced (in a good way). He got the campfire chicken with polenta and it was absolutely scrumptious. We kept trading dishes back and forth and it ended up being a perfect amount of food for both of us. We just too full to try any of their interesting crème brûlée options. Shucks!

    We found ourselves roaming downtown in Bend without reservations and after stopping at every restaurant in sight to get told it'd be a 90 minute wait. That was until we ran across Roam, where we were able to get seated and served immediately. I was surely thinking the only place we found with an open table would probably not be great, but I was wrong. The service was wonderful, the place was clean and comfortable. The old fashioned was made with Buffalo trace and was perfect. The steak cooked to a wonderful medium rare and served with chimmichurri. The truffle fries were perfect. I don't understand how they had an open table but I am thankful for it!

    We stopped by ROAM the day after Valentine's Day, excited to try some of their delicious-looking menu items--only to find out that most of the things we wanted (including the truffle fries!) were sold out. Total heartbreak! It felt like every time we picked something, we got the dreaded "Sorry, we're out of that." I get it--it was a busy weekend--but it definitely took the excitement down a notch. That said, the restaurant itself is gorgeous--bright, open, and a great place to relax. And our server? Super sweet and totally apologetic, even though it obviously wasn't her fault. The food we did get was still tasty, so we'll have to come back when they're fully stocked and give it another go!

    Found Roam after our original choice was packed and had a two hour wait. Was able to get in quickly and greeting by our friendly server Kelly who also offered some tips for us out of towners on good hikes locally. The food was fresh and delicious. The ambiance was laid back and not pretentious. Would definitely come back.

    Delicious food and wonderful service. Came with a group of friends for dinner and I was not disappointed! From the rolls, cocktails and dinner everything tasted good! I got the saged and confused cocktail, Smokey for sure but I enjoyed it. I also got the Wagyu Bolognese for dinner and that was delicious. The portion was perfect in my opinion! It has great flavor and I liked the wide noodles. My husband got the steak frites and fries, it was also delicious. Everyone liked their food. I highly recommend!

    Biscuits and gravy

    I needed a spot for brunch on a Sunday with my family and the photos on Yelp made it seem like this was a good place to go. There were pros and cons for sure. If you don't feel like reading what I'm about to write, I'll just tell you now that I won't be returning. Upon walking in, a lady was at the greeter counter and I asked if there were any tables for 4 adults and a baby. She looked me up and down (in a very judgey way), and then looked around inside and then continued to say they only had seats outside. (There were so many empty seats inside, so this was a bit off putting) I agreed to us sitting outside because the sun started coming out. We were seated and then sat and waited about 5ish min for the server to come and ask us if we wanted drinks. We ordered coffee, and then food. We ordered, the French toast, elk hash, biscuits and gravy, and eggs Benedict. I'll speak for my food, and say that it was ok. Not stand out for the price, and didn't really have that homey feeling you get when you have a truly delicious eggs Benedict. The side potatoes were very good though, I have to give them that. The English muffin under the eggs and ham tasted like it was soaked in butter, which was super overwhelming because there wasn't enough sauce to begin with. The coffee with good though, pretty standard. I will say that the items seemed overpriced for what was being served. They also charged $8 for 3 pieces of bacon (that's pretty insane, right?) Im always down to spend some money on exceptional food, but this felt very meh. I think I had expected more because of past reviews! (Which was my bad, and I guess now I know!) Overall, I would give this place a 5.3/10 for service and give the food maybe a 6/10 (mainly because my mom and my husband said they enjoyed their meal) though my sister got really bad stomachache while eating her food, and only ate about half of her meal because of it. She also didn't take it to go, so it makes me wonder if something was off there.

    I ordered a yogurt parfait to go here one morning to bring back to my room. It was very overpriced at 14$ before tip but the ingredients were fresh and tasted high quality. The only thing I would have liked would have been some honey or a sweetener since the yogurt was plain. The servers were soo friendly though. Great service here. The menu seemed really good too so would be interested in coming back and trying more things.

    We had a pretty disappointing experience at Roam. The biggest takeaway is that the food and service is not worth the high menu prices - even for Bend. The burger was the only reasonable entree - both in price and taste. The fish and steak were way too saucy and overpowered what should be a naturally flavorful dish. Our service was middle ground too. It always felt like we were bothering our waitress, even for something as simple as refilling our water.

    Roam is an interesting place with some character. Overall, the food was simple and had some thought behind it, but it wouldn't be my first choice for a lunch or dinner experience. This place feels secondary to the hotel, and it lets you know it. Lilly, our server, was great--she genuinely seemed to care about her customers.

    What a great place to bring friends and family. Beautiful atmosphere ( music was a bit bar like) but table was set very nicely and spaced well giving you privacy from other patrons. Food was VERY good and lots of menu selections. Service was terrific! Drinks incredible.

    Ceviche Tostadas

    We ended up staying right next door and decided to pop in as it was so close and it looked promising. The food and drinks were delicious, definitely did not disappoint. We ended up getting some drinks to start. The yuzu lemonade was a non-alcoholic drink, but it was very tasty and refreshing. The yuzu taste was not overpowering and the lemonade made it refreshing. Also got the Forager and it was quite a pleasant surprise! The black pepper was a good mix to the gin and lime! Also a light and refreshing drink, it was exactly what we were looking for after a day of traveling. For food, we got the NY strip and the mushroom gnocchi. Both meals were a generous amount of proportions with full of flavor. The steak was seasoned well and the chimichurri sauce to top the steak and potatoes was a great balance. The mushroom gnocchi was light and the mushrooms and sauce were a perfect complement to keep the taste buds craving more. Overall would come back to this place as service was good and was a nice place to either go for a date spot or bring a small group of friends.

    NY Strip* 12 oz

    Amazing food and service!!!! The wine is incredible, steak is awesome, dessert too! We had a reservation for Christmas Eve and we were seated 15 mins early! They took great care of us and our server was super warm! The ONLY thing is the wait time for food. 40 min wait for food--we did have steak, but an additional 20 min wait for dessert which was very small. Other than that, AMAZING!

Only reason it's 4 stars instead of 5 is because if I lived closer I would probably eat here too often and that feels medically irresponsible. I'd give it 6 stars if Yelp understood burgers better.

The steak and the Boursin mashed potatoes alone were very good. The pickled onions and chimichurri complemented the meat very well. The meal was supposed to include brussel sprouts but came with a grilled broccoli cauliflower assortment instead. My wife had the Scallop Risotto which was also a great recommendation from the server. In reality, The Hook & Plow deserved 3 1/2 stars but that's not an option on Yelp.

It's a cute older building with a traditional pub vibe, and the menu mostly has a slightly elevated pub food to match. Photos of varying significance line the walls. Many seem to reflect famous people who may or may not have been patrons over the years. My boyfriend ordered the fish and chips, and I ordered the mac and cheese with bacon. While both are simple dishes, they were both prepared well and quite tasty. The waitress was very efficient, but also laid back and friendly. We liked her a lot. I don't think you're going to experience a groundbreaking culinary experience here, but we did enjoy the quality of the classic dishes we ordered. The portion of mac and cheese was so big that I took leftovers and had the second half of it for lunch the next day. The prices seemed fair for the portions we received. I would come back here again for the friendly vibe, solid food, and lack of pretentiousness.
