Never had a bad meal here! Their chowder is so good best I have ever had. Fish and chips are great, halibut, oysters, even tried the meat dishes all very very good. So good I forget to take pics.

My husband & I have been here a handful of times and we have never had a bad meal. I need to step up and give them the excellent review they deserve. Tonight we had crab cake app, nice spice & tangy, and dinner was fish & chips and ahi sandwich. Everything was excellent, fresh and house made. Nice cocktail and wine options. We look forward to our next meal here.

Fantastic experience. Just visited for my 4th time, and each time has been wonderful. Nick was our server for the second time last night, he is the best!! He is very knowledgeable and attentive. Our food was cooked to perfection and the we had the most delicious cocktails. Photos all from different visits to The Hook and Plow.

We were a 4 top at Hook and Plow Bend on 7-23-24. Honestly, I would be hard pressed to say I have EVER had a better meal in a restaurant or more attentive service! From the oyster appetizer, the Uni and Scallop Risotto, the Clam Chowder, the Salmon Salad, the shared Bread Pudding (so worth the wait) and Chocolate Brulee, we kept thinking "how is everything so perfect?!" Truly, a phenomenal experience. It will be our first choice dining out in Bend! Keep doing what you're doing Hook & Plow.

A perfect dinning experience at The Hook & Plow! The atmosphere is great, the service was on point, the food was amazing!!! We had the tartar, crab cakes, fish and the steak, everything was perfectly prepared and delicious! My favorite was the steak medium rare. Our waiter, Bradon, was very helpful and attentive. The bathrooms have some very interesting wallpaper in all 3 bathrooms. Don’t pass up a chance to try this amazing restaurant. Enjoy!!!

Me and my boyfriend came here to celebrate our one year anniversary and it was one of the best meals we've had. The flavor was immaculate in both our dishes. The service was amazing, the manager served us and was checking on us throughout the meal making sure we had everything we needed. I had the steak potatoes, the sauce had some spice but the steak was cooked perfectly. My boyfriend had the lamb shank and it was incredible as well.

Tonight was my husband's and my first time coming to Hook&Plow and we were blown away. We had Brandon as a server and he was awesome. Had great recommendations. We had the ahi poke, scallops, a fish taco, the burger and the halibut. Everything was amazing, especially for the price! Would definitely recommend.

We went here after my sister's graduation. Its a beautiful resturaunt, light and classy atmosphere. The food was absolutely incredible. We got the specialty bread, diver scallops, and the halloumi fries for appetizers. The diver scallops were flavorful and still warm from the pan when they reached our table. The bread was warm and crispy, and the butter had the perfect about of salt on it. I got the steak, with a side of glazed carrots. The arrangement on the plate was beautiful, and the food itself was delicious. Soft broccoli, rich sauce, juicy steak, and delicate carrot couscous. The side of glazed carrots with walnuts was mouth watering. Our server, Olivia, was friendly and attentive. She helped us with all of our questions, and even seamlessly fixed a problem with our table when it arose. Great place for a dinner after an event.
