Pine Tavern Restaurant

We spent our Thanksgiving dinner here and it was 🤌🏽 everything we had was so good. I didn’t take food pic because I was to hungry to wait 🤦🏽‍♀️we had the house salad, sweet potato waffle fries, turkey entree, & the apple pie. The waitress we had was the sweetest. The host though, kind of seemed like she wanted to push people to not wait for seating.

Before I get started, don’t go anywhere else, come here! I had the best experience I’ve ever had at any restaurant! I ordered French onion soup and enjoyed it throughly with some scones and honey butter. To be honest, those scones were the best thing ever! Then in no time I had a plate of steak frites and 3 cheese Mac and cheese which were 😘👌! I also had a Pepsi and a strawberry lemonade which of course was muy bien! Then our waitress, per the special occasion on which I was attending kindly gave us another set of scones and honey butter as dessert! So overall if I could I would rate this 100/5! I’m definitely gonna come here again!

Loved my meal and table by the window with view (through the trees) of Mirror Pond. I got a burger and wedge salad. The bread rolls were amazing by themselves but are served with a honey butter. I got an Arnold Palmer but looks like they have a fully stocked bar and beer and wine. The place has an elegant feel but I also felt comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt. My waiter was great, attentive and gave me the run down on specials and what to expect with my burger (garnishes and how it was cooked - medium). One small observation: I was there around sunset and saw diners outside on the back patio enjoying their meals in a nice golden light. As it got a bit darker, the outside lights were suddenly turned on. Wow.. too bright and abrupt. It killed the ambience in my opinion. Maybe bring them up slowly (a dimmer) or lower the wattage. Yikes.

A true heritage tradition in Bend, the Pines with it's two pine trees rising though the floor and ceiling, offers great food, superb service, and a relaxing atmosphere. Our reservation was for 5:30 and the restaurant was already busy. We were quickly seated in the back overlooking the water. Our waiter was a high energy person and was very attentive without making us feel hurried. The steak fries and garlic fries appitizers were both great, although the steak fries would be my choice next time. I had the pulled pork without the bun (gluten intolerance) and was offered seasonal vegetables ( superb green beans ) all of which were very tasty. My wife had the chicken Marsala which after I had a taste was a much better choice. Our companions had the blackened rockcod and rib eye steak which they enjoyed. The Pines has an excellent wine and beer list. Wine is offered by the bottle or glass. All in all an excellent dinning experience. If you have not been be sure to try it.

What a great place for a glass of wine and some dinner on the patio by the water, especially with our 2 Fur 🐕🦮Balls ,who were treated so wonderfully! It was our FIRST time in Bend, this place was a nice treat & super chill and relaxing. So many places to try glad we stumbled across this gem. Can't wait to come back! Thanks everyone ☺️ 😘 you were great! P.s. Sky High Mud Pie all day

Updated Aug. 8/23: Yet another fabulous experience! Brought our son to Bend for a music concert & The Hayden Amphitheater and could not “not” bring him to Pine Tavern. It did not disappoint. From the Mac&Cheese to the Mahi Mahi and Fried Chicken, we each thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Matt took good care of us as well. …… 10 STARS! (11/29/2021) What a find. Historic building, beyond excellent service, and the food is spectacular. AND THE PRICES, WOW! We were in town to see one of our favorite artists (Gregory Alan Isakov) at The Tower Theater and fell upon the Pine Tavern, well weren't we fortunate. We had the Happy Hour Tavern Burger (holy COW what a burger for $8.95, it's a beautiful burger, incredibly tasty and cooked perfectly), the Parmesan Garlic Truffle Fries (like the burger they were terrific, TONS of garlic so beware and VERY sharable), and last but not least the Chicken Quesadilla (only suggestion here would be the chicken could have been slightly more moist). The bartender took EXCELLENT care of us (sorry but I did not get his name) and the atmosphere within the space was beyond compare. If we lived in Bend I could see us visiting the Pine Tavern 2-3 times a month, EASY!

Very nice restaurant. Indoor atmosphere is cozy and old-fashioned. Outdoor deck and patio is light and casual. Food was quite good. Large wedge salad with excellent Bleu cheese dressing. Steelhead meal was excellent. Fish and chips was one large piece of cod in batter. Flaky throughout. Dessert menu looked great but we were too full to try! Very helpful server - we appreciated him!
