Came for Saturday brunch after seeing tofu scramble on the website menu. That option wasn't on the menu at the establishment itself but they had no problem sorting one out, and it was delicious. Fantastic habanero hot sauce and recommend the pear mule. Service was...brisk and efficient. Roughly a 20 min wait. Would love to see more vegan items on the menu. Charming spot, popular.More

Dog friendly we sat outside, it’s a really nice area, the staff was friendly - there was a crowd. Our order wasn’t perfect but fixed right away and good (The Local and The Caesar). The place just feels good. Worth a visit.

This was my second visit which was not as good as my first. I wasn't feeling extra hungry and did not order a main, but settled on the hot oats. What came to the table was a mound of wall paper paste served with a...few raisins and a bit of honey. There was absolutely no texture to the oats and were probably cooked a few days ago and just reheated every morning. It was painful to watch all the plates being delivered to customers that looked fabulous. Buyer beware. The Earl Grey tea was delicious, so I left somewhat satisfied.More

Great service, fantastic breakfast (roasted sweat potatoes!!), groovy vibe. The converted house is friendly and playful with a good sense of humor.

Our experience began with lovely outdoor seating, very attentive staff and then came the food…My our omelets were so fresh, big, flavorful, & those sweet potatoe fries on the side with some unknown sauce drizzled on them-wow!! We hit the cascade lakes afterwards & were...full for hours. Superb!More

What a great spot for breakfast. We sat on the big patio and had an amazing breakfast with delicious bloody marys. Such a great spot. The servers are great and friendly and the food is divine.

This restaurant takes care of those of us with gluten intolerance. Both the food and the service was outstanding. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Our “large” party of three waited an hour, but was never seated. When we asked after 30 minutes about the wait, we were told that it was because we were a larger party. After 45 minutes, they called a party of 5 that had been...there about 15 minutes. After 60 minutes, we asked again and were told they had called our party a “few times”, even though we were sitting just outside the open door. I don’t like being lied to…especially twice. I’m sure the food is probably great, but that’s just not okay. Ciao Chow!More

Great service and huge portions of some of the best food in Bend. There are many great food options in Bend and just had to eat here twice! Had the most incredible corned beef ever and shrimp and grits which was the best we’ve ever...eaten anywhere! Highly recommend this restaurant!More

How special can breakfast/lunch be when it's eggs and sandwiches? Chow manages to serve up unbelievable combos - I had the crab patty sandwich - you have to try it - just over the top delicious. My son had the corned beef with potatoes (not...remembering exact names) and it too was fantastic. I would have lunch there everyday if I lived in Bend. Oh, and the Bloody Mary's!More

will likely make sure we return on off hours, they are very busy and the size makes eating close quarters and when we were there it was packed and we waited to be seated, but that's not a problem. Interesting selections and will be back...to try other options. Service was off, very slow but folks were pleasant. This is the second place I found where folks tended to be very loud again will make sure to go early when it's not so busy. I do like that it strives to be "different" in selections and decor and it is that.More

We arrived on a Friday morning around 1030 and were seated right away. The coffee was good, partner had a half jalapeño/half garlic Bloody Mary, which was also tasty. I had the crab cake with potatoes which were a little salty but good with all...the flavors. Highly recommended as a vacation breakfast spot or a nice treat.More

Love The Med for breakfast or brunch. High quality, fresh ingredients and interesting combinations deliver delicious meals. Like the funky indoor decor and nice summer outdoor ambience.

Food is great, service sucks. Unnecessary rude remarks and stink looks by the staff made all my meals (this happened a few times) unpleasant and really hard to even think about coming back. The pretentious attitude of certain staff cancels out how awesome their food...is....really surprised how they got their jobs with no hospitality and poor people skills makes it very hostile and uncomfortable to enjoy a mealMore
