27 Best Cocktail Bars in Bend

“Excellent tacos & Margaritas“

“Dear Irene is hands-down our favorite restaurant in Bend. Chef Johnny isn’t just an incredible chef—he’s also a phenomenal human being who makes every visit special.

We’ve dined at nearly all of Bend’s high-end restaurants, and nothing compares to Dear Irene. The food, the atmosphere, and the genuine hospitality all come together to create an experience that truly stands above the rest.

If you’re visiting Bend (or even if you live here), dinner at Dear Irene is an absolute must. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why you love great food and great people.“

“Delicious food pleasant service well done“

“John hit it out of the park with this one. the cocktails amazing. mocktails for my kids they loved it. my 2 daughters requested going there two nights later. they got the pizza and the sourdough pizza dough was so savory. first night I got the summer salad with roasted peaches and burrata, when we went back a few days later I got the tuna crudo with watermelon gazpacho. THIS NEEDS TO BE ON THE MENU!!!!! If you are there and they have this you have to get it. desserts get 1 of each they are delectable. I was lucky enough my daughter's let me have a bite of their sundae and tiramisu. if you have family dinner at home go for dessert at least. They are incredible. the atmosphere was classy, old fashioned but I felt so welcome.“

“We just checked in for our first stay at Campfire Hotel. The staff is very friendly. The grounds and amenities are super fun and incorporate all there is to love about Bend into a great, comfortable spot!! We will definitely be back and we just got here!“

“They do a Goth / 80’s night - Catacombs. Check it out!“

“We had great service today. However the halibut was overcooked and the famous chocolate cake was dry and tasteless. I don’t know what has changed, but this used to be my go to restaurant. Tonight I was disappointed.“

“Service was excellent as was the food. We had reserved our table and were seated at a small table for two close to the bar. We did ask for a larger table but were told they were not available, yet several couples were given the larger tables. One actually lay empty the whole time we were there. We have eaten here many times and always recommended it. Our decision to return is doubtful as eating in such a cramped space was not enjoyable.“

“One of my favorite restaurants in town! Food is always so fun and fresh. The decor is also over the top. Crab Rangoons are a favorite starter with the Saigon Bowl being a top main dish. Staff is very attentive. Bonus they are also open for lunch!“

“Cool and interesting cocktails, great vibes and friendly staff. Sat at the bar on a Saturday night and it was such a great time. Just feels like a place that you feel welcome. The two cocktails I ordered were both complex and well balanced.“

“Cool vibes…Craft cocktails“

“The Flaming Room was amazing! The drinks were fantastic, and our group of 11 had such a fun time together. The atmosphere made it easy to enjoy conversation, and the service was excellent. When we had a water spill at our table, our server quickly cleaned it up without missing a beat. She was also very knowledgeable about the menu and the drink list, which made the experience even better. Overall, a great spot for groups and an enjoyable night out — highly recommend!“

“Favorite neighborhood gathering place. Great service, food and drink!“

“Incredible food. Amazing staff. There was not a single negative. We will be back!!“

“My Fiancée and I had tapas and drinks here and it was fantastic!! Everything that came out of the kitchen and bar were tasty and the vibes were immaculate! Low lighting and a fairly quiet sitting area led to a very intimate setting. The staff was very attentive and super nice and the food was incredibly delicious!“

“we used Lifted Spirts at our wedding and i cannot recommend them enough! the service excellent the whole way through - they were communicative, collaborative and fun to work with. the signature cocktails were so good to i had multiple guests ask how to recreate them!“

“I love this place. Endless hallways, hidden rooms, soaking pools, cozy nooks, notes wedged in the ceiling, indoor fireplaces, outdood fireplaces, good pizza, shuffleboard, theater, quality craft beers and ciders, excellent happy hour, hidden bar. Seek refuge here in a blizzard, unless it's closed for the blizzard.“

“Loved my experience there, and thankful for the huge selection, even though not everything was on the list…I STILL got to try 4 whiskies I had no experience with! Waitress was super pleasant and helpful…I will make it a regular stop when I come back to visit!!!“

“food is deeelicious, customer service from hostess to servers is excellent, atmosphere is fun and upscale cool. On my top fave list of restaurants. And the best part- everyone is welcome here, not just the alphabet crew.“

“Le doy 5 estrellas 🌟 ya que la comida es una delicia 😋 la presentación es grandiosa, la atención al cliente es rápida, educada y súper amable! Además el lugar está muy limpio!“

“We had an amazing meal here today!! We walked the river trail and decided to pop in after for burgers and fries. Everything was seasoned perfectly, squishy bun, crispy meat, nice pickle, shredduce and sauce. The fries are also so good! Can't wait to come back.“

“We love the burgers and root beer here but the last few times we’ve come the restaurant hasn’t been very clean… we came in on 7/13 and all tables were unbussed and there was trash and food all over the floor. I had to ask an employee to buss a table for us after being promoted to pay 20%+ tip. I should mention the restaurant was not busy at this time and the employees didn’t seem like they had a lot going on.“

“Bartenders are an Olympic team“
