Cottonwood Cafe, Homestyle, Sisters
The Pacific Northwest influence is strong at the Cottonwood Cafe in Sisters, and the result is a modern take on breakfast and lunch fare that is consistently raved. The modern restaurant was recently purchased by the same owners as Chow in Bend, but the family-friendly atmosphere hasn’t changed. Read why the cafe’s bloody mary is one of our favorites.

The Cottonwood cafe is open daily from 8 am-3 pm, except for Wednesday when they are closed. These are the Winter/Fall hours, and are subject to change in Summer and Spring months.
Los Agaves, Mexican, Sisters
Try not to fill up on chips and salsa before your entrée arrives. The spacious back patio is a great place to sit down for a hearty meal with your family or have a nice bonding moment with a margarita.
291 E Cascade Ave., Sisters, 541-549-0777
Los Agaves, Mexican, Sisters
- Wine
Tex-mex flavors take center stage at Los Agaves in Sisters. The restaurant offers great service and large plates of food. Don’t skip the drinks either—this is the kind of place to hang out on patio, sipping on sangria and taking in the small town charm of Sisters.
291 E Cascade Ave., Sisters, 541-549-0777
Sisters Saloon and Ranch Grill, American Bistro, Sisters
Housed in the recently renovated Hotel Sisters built in 1912, this fresh take on a Sisters tradition provides a beefed-up menu and historic atmosphere that comes complete with the original booth tables and bar. Sink your teeth into some smoked ribs or a bison burger, then swing through the old saloon doors for a drink.
190 East Cascade Ave., Sisters, 541-549-7427
The Depot Cafe, Homestyle, Sisters
You know it’s good if it holds up to the “Great Grandma standard.” This policy at the Depot goes as follows: If it contains ingredients that co-owner Pam Wavrin’s great-grandma couldn’t recognize or pronounce when she was six years old, it doesn’t belong on the menu.
250 W Cascade Ave., Sisters, 541-549-2572
The Open Door, Italian, Sisters
Combining an art gallery and a restaurant is not a new feat, but The Open Door does it well. The tiny dining room has the kind of charm and comfort that every restaurant dreams of, and their equally tiny menu delightfully executes its handful of Italian dishes.
303 W Hood Ave., Sisters, 541-549-4994
The Porch, Homestyle, Sisters
From the outside, it looks more like a home than a restaurant, but once you get inside and try the fare you’ll easily be fooled into thinking you’re at the finest of dining establishments. Whatever you order for the main dish, be sure to pair it with a side of parmesan truffle fries.
243 N Elm St., Sisters, 541-549-3287
Three Creeks Brewing, Brewpub, Sisters
Not great at making decisions? Why settle for one pint when you can order a flight of six shooters and get a diverse taste of what’s brewing in Sisters. To make your decision even easier, make sure one of your pours is the Hoodoo Voodoo IPA.
721 S Desperado Ct., Sisters, 541-549-1963
