Downtown Bend just got a serious kick—and it comes with a mechanical bull! We review The Coyote, Downtown Bend’s newest country bar that is equal parts elegant, playful, and instantly welcoming. With masterfully executed cocktails (try the Cactus Rangel!), stunning local art, a dance floor, and a menu that goes way beyond bar food (you MUST try the spicy, surprising Snake Bites), The Coyote is the new destination you won’t want to live without. Read our full review to see why this spot is the start of something lasting.
We checked into McMenamins Old St. Francis School for a midweek staycation and found way more than just a place to sleep. From soaking under a skylight and exploring secret rooms to sipping cocktails in a hidden bar, this historic property in downtown Bend gave us a full reset—without ever leaving town.
Our Thai Iced Coffees arrived first, a beautiful burnt orange, dark brown, and creamy in appearance. A moderate sweetness balanced well with the tea. It was smooth, creamy and proved to be a nice pairing with the chicken wings that arrived soon after.
