Beautiful garden with views to the canal. I had a vegan doughnut, maple glazed, which was very nice! The texture of the doughnut was a bit different to what I am used to. It was not so fluffy, but quite hydrated and nice. Guess that’s the more like the American way? Chai latte is not vegan as the powder contains dairy.

Yummy matcha with plant milks available and 3 vegan donut flavors! Very nice outdoor seating with river view Updated from previous review on 2025-08-29

Quiet, slightly hidden in plain sight with delicious house roasted coffee and local pastries. Yum!

Looney Bean is one of those experience coffee houses. It has coffee and a vibe all it's own. It's so much more than just having a cup of coffee. Just see for yourself.

Really good Americano. Laid back atmosphere with a cool lawn out back. Bought an Ocean roll, highly recommended

Stopped by for a morning latte and a walk around Drake Park. I accidentally dropped my card behind their counter during peak times and the girls were so kind about the whole thing and worked together to find my card behind their counter and equipment. They worked hard to find it. I couldn’t appreciate them enough. Service was great. Coffee was great! Thank you ladies!!!!

If I lived in Bend, I would be here daily. Friendly staff, lots of drink and food options, fairly priced (IMO) and just the BEST backyard seating on the river. So sad I didn’t discover until my last day in Bend.

Good coffee, pastry, and views of the river from the backyard. Only downside is the lack of free parking in immediate vicinity, hence the 4 instead of 5 stars.

Decided to visit this coffee shop after a long night of travel, and I'm so glad I did. The line was a little concerning, but it moved at a good speed and then you were able to go inside or to the backyard while waiting for your order. The energy through the whole place was contagious and the coffee was quite tasty too.
Highly recommend planning to hang out outside and bring your pup!

Awesome views from the outside eating area and decent coffee. The dogs loved the backyard views of the water. Nice place to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee.

This is a favorite to meet with friends. There are great scenery seats outside. Wonderful, easy going atmosphere inside.
The staff is always friendly and fun.
And the baked goods are a must. If you're lucky you can even get a bag of day old goodies for a discounted price.
The coffee is fantastic. No matter what you get, and you can make it even better with some espresso whip. If you've lived here you know this is a must stop. But if youre stopping through town I highly encourage you to add this your itinerary.

I haven't been in years and it was great today. They have vegan gluten free pastries. The espresso was very good. The half shade, half sun back lawn on the Deschutes River is great. Ample seating. ADA, kid, and dog friendly (though we did not use a restroom so cannot speak to that). I will be bringing my young child there over and over. Order at the window then walk inside for a seat or walk through the building to go down the steps to the back, or you can go down the side path outside to the left to go to the back with any wheeled personal transportation devices like strollers or wheel chairs.
