View this email in your browser Welcome to the Downtown Bend Newsletter! We hope that you and your loved ones had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We also want to express our deep, wide, and vast gratitude for you, and for your choice to spend your money locally.   If you haven't experienced some of the gratitude from our local merchants, click here and here to get a glimpse of just how much we are thankful for you.  Thank you.  Now, for a few AMAZING THINGS from Downtown Bend that you don't want to miss this week: The Commons Cafe & Taproom, 900 Wall, and Looney Bean Cafe all have beautiful new outdoor areas for you to enjoy - go check them out this week!  Now is the perfect time to invest in your home.  We are all spending a lot more time at home right now, and getting a new piece of cozy furniture from NW Home Interiors, or investing in a new sound system from Stereo Planet could be the perfect gift to give yourself and your family this season. Of course, each of us must get take-out this week from one of our favorite Downtown restaurants (let's support our local eateries and keep them open during this pandemic!). It's hard to choose with so many amazing choices, but the falafel from Joolz is incredible and it's so easy to order online.  The drunken noodles from Noi Thai will delight your tastebuds (order here), the crispy duck from the Jackalope Grill is to live for, and when you get take out from The Point Pub and Grill, you also get friendly messages on your take out boxes!  Plus - make sure to stop by the Community Tree at dusk to watch the lights go on!  Bend's Community Tree is located at the top of Drake Park next to The Commons Cafe & Taproom and the Beach Hut Deli. In-person or online, we've made it easy for you to support local Downtown Bend merchants:  For a list of Downtown Bend businesses: click here, for online shopping links: click here, for curbside pick-up and delivery from Downtown Bend restaurants: click here. Thanks for supporting your local Bend families!  Remember, we're in this together and we need you!

Featured Downtown Coupon | Revolvr Menswear The Commons Cafe & Taproom needs you! The Commons Cafe and Taproom, located in the historic Rademacher House built in 1904, has a rich history as a space that has always served Bend in positive ways.  A few years ago, The Commons Cafe and Taproom moved into the house and took over management of the adjoining plaza.  This space was transformed by providing positive programming, clear expectations & boundaries for the use of the space, cleaning & beautification, and a place for our community to gather, laugh, learn and enjoy each other. Now, they need their community to support them during these challenging times, click here to read more and click here to give.   Thank you for staying connected to Downtown Bend!  Downtown Bend Business Directory Copyright © *|CURRENT_YEAR|* *|LIST:COMPANY|*, All rights reserved. *|IFNOT:ARCHIVE_PAGE|* *|LIST:DESCRIPTION|* Our mailing address is: *|HTML:LIST_ADDRESS_HTML|* *|END:IF|* Want to change how you receive these emails?
