It’s a restaurant you have to look up to find in Bend. 

Moose Sisters is located on the second floor in the Cascade Village Shopping Center, where it has views of the mountains and eclectic decor to entertain.

The sisters had a long career in Sun Valley, Idaho before moving their restaurant to Central Oregon.

Instead of reaching for a glass of wine or a beer at the end of the long day to unwind, you could make a healthier swap to help you wake up feeling refreshed and ready for the day ahead.

Altitude Beverages was born in Bend, and its founders believe their non-alcoholic cocktail is a great match for those seeking an alternative drink on the High Desert.
