Rockin' Dave's Bistro & Backstage Lounge

The bagels were amazing. The Clogger with egg on a jalapeno bagel was just the perfect combo. Great flavor profile. It is a must when in Bend.

Saw the place on DDD! Our group of 9, we all agree our orders were delicious. Thankful there was gluten-free options, and it was super cool to meet Dave.

Honestly I love this place. I get the same thing every time, Jump Start add Bacon on whatever bagel they have that I like. I got one the other day, and there was no bacon even though I paid for it (it’s like $3 more to add bacon) so I called and let them know hey you forgot the bacon just wanted to let you know, and the person on the phone was nice enough to give me a gift card for the amount of a new sandwich. Couple days go by, and I decide to get my free sandwich! Super excited, then my girlfriend calls me as I’m about to go pick it up, she needs a ride to ER because her nose was broken. So I did what any good boyfriend would do and dropped everything to take her in. I had to call in and cancel my sandwich order unfortunately. This is where it gets unsettling. The man on the phone didn’t care what I had going on, he was obviously upset/mad at me because the sandwich was made. I understand the severity of waste and food cost but he was flat out rude about it and when I asked if I’d still be able to get my replacement in the future, he hesitated and finally said “I guess.” Cool, fine, whatever. Now today I called to get my replacement. What do you know, there’s no more gift card there and he has to ask around the shop to see if anyone knew of my situation. Luckily someone did and I finally got my order in. I went to pick it up and the man at the window was flat out looked unhappy to be serving me and when I said “thank you I appreciate it” Al I got back was a “yep” and a window slammed in my face. If you’re that unhappy where you work maybe don’t work there. Wonderful food, aggravating service.

Update: Hardly a mask in sight on the patrons. Step it up Dave. Online ordering is not up to par. The rest is awesome. The only real bagels in Bend. Food is excellent.

Has amazing bagels!
