Explanation below Vibes are great, service is awesome. Coffee - so I love a good coffee or house made alternative milk-. Lone pines House Made Almond- Cashew Milk is AWFUL. They baristas tell you it's so good. FALSE. It's water, it's not a latte, the "milk" doesn't froth at all, the coffee separates from it and it settles weird at the bottom of your cup. It's water that doesn't even taste right. I'd rather have an Americano. It's a waste of their employees time to make their alternative milk instead of purchasing a brand name soy/oat/almond milk. Thanks for the response Scott but I've given Lone Pine a chance 5 times with the same experience. There's plenty of alternative milk brands that offer clean options. :)

We sat outside in the heated tent with our fur baby - they are dog- friendly. Food & Service are fantastic! Lives up to reputation for being best Brunch Spot in Bend. Hubby had classic Eggs Benedict that he said was very good. I started with a warm Chai and a Bobbin for Apples Mimosa which was magical. Having read the reviews I was prepared to order the stuffed croissant French toast. Last minute change of heart- I ordered the Gobbler, a roast turkey sandwich on a croissant with a flavor profile reminiscent of Thanksgiving. The sweetness of the fig jam played well with the poached pear, savory turkey and peppery arugula. Dessert will have to wait until our next visit. The pastry counter at the front of the restaurant displays cinnamon roles, scones, muffins and impressive cakes. There's even a marionberry and white chocolate bread pudding that would make a wonderful brunch choice.

The atmosphere was bustling and casual, and our server appeared promptly to take our drink order and tell us the specials. I ordered the special of the day, shrimp and asparagus risotto. It was divine! It wasn't the creamy cheesy heavy type, rather it was made with a deep flavored broth. The shrimp were plentiful and flavorful, and the fresh dill on top added a nice herbal flavor. Lemon Tree is my favorite place for breakfast or lunch in downtown Bend due to its focus on quality ingredients, and interesting, healthy menu items that are beautifully presented.

We went to Spork and were warmly welcomed and the food was amazing as usual. Will never feel the need to try this place again.

Bad news. Good news…read more Bad news first is this: The Drake has been sold to new owners and TONIGHT, APRIL 12, WILL BE THE LAST DAY OF SERVICE at The Drake with the original owner and the current menu. So if you're hankering for the mac n cheese or shrimp n grits or veg burger or any of the menu items, after today they are history. I started eating at The Drake in their first week of business and had many, many, many meals there over the years but things change and so, it seems, has the popularity of The Drake. Now the good news. The new owners are a trio and one of them is also one of the owners of the inestimable Ken's Artisan Pizza in Portland that opened its' Bend location last year. (Go! Even if you have to stand in line for 45 minutes like I did.) The first news of this ownership change was that they would keep the name and current focus of The Drake. But local television news reports that after The Drake closes today it will be reimagined with a new name and design and menu. The opening for the new place is currently said to be Memorial Day weekend. I don't live in Bend anymore but there is still a family home there and so I visit on occasion and knowing a "Ken's" owner is involved in the new enterprise may make me brave the wicked-bad downtown parking to try this new place. In the meantime, I remember how fun and delicious it could be to eat at The Drake.

The inside was warm and inviting and we were greeted right away. After a short wait we were seated by the window. Our server greeted us quickly and we ordered their bacon Bloody Mary with their pepper infused vodka. So good! I am very picky about my Bloody Marys and honestly so many bartenders fail to deliver the savory, spicy, umami goodness that I've come to expect and this Bloody Mary hit the spot. My husband had the Eighteen Wheeler. The biscuits were fluffy and thick without being overly dense. The gravy had a wonderful texture and was exactly what you want from your biscuits and gravy. The potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. I had the smoked salmon Benedict. It was perfectly seasoned and I appreciated the portion size. Our service was friendly and our meal was amazing. We will definitely be back next time we are in Bend!
