  • 1. Sweet Wife Baking

    $

    This Main Street mainstay is best known for its amazing sweet treats in the bakery case, but there are plenty of savory delights on the menu, too, including several grilled egg sandwiches, avocado toast, and quinoa bowls for breakfast and five creative variations of grilled cheese sandwiches at lunch. Soups and salads are also popular. If you didn't save room for dessert, be sure and get some of the tasty scones, cookies, brownies, cinnamon rolls, and other treats to go.

  • 2. The Dog Spot

    $

    Easily the most unique of eateries in Joseph, when you dine at the Dog Spot you'll either be inside by the open kitchen and adjacent dog supply shop, or outside where dogs are welcome to sit below the table while you enjoy delectable food prepared by internationally experienced chef/owner, Arion Canniff. Arion's wife and hostess/waitress of the establishment, Amy, is known to bring water bowls out for visiting dogs, and her deep knowledge of the current short but enticing menu is helpful when choosing what to order. Entrées have an international flair and some of the regular options, like shrimp street tacos, are tweaked with different sauces each week, such as lemon-garlic, mango, and even "German-inspired" during the Oktoberfest season. Regular items on the menu include an Argentinian steak salad with chimichurri, house mac and cheese with seven kinds of cheese, and Vietnamese bahn mi sandwich (available with pulled chicken, pork shoulder, or jackfruit or tofu for vegetarians).

    $

    Set in a stately 1880s former Masonic lodge in downtown Pendleton, what began as a coffeehouse and wine bar has expanded over the years into a full restaurant serving reasonably priced salads, sandwiches, soups, pizzas, and appetizers. The food tends toward traditional American café fare, with focaccia topped with kalamata olives and chèvre, smoked-salmon Caesar salads, and barbecued-pork pizzas among the favorites. There's a great selection of both international and local wines, and bottled and draft beers.

  • 5. Liberty Theatre Cafe

    $

    This cute spot opened in 2021 next to the historic Liberty Theatre, which is actively being restored, and quickly earned a loyal following for its great coffee and short but innovative menu of breakfast and lunch offerings. Tourists find it a welcome stop, too, whether to grab the revered breakfast sandwich "The Betty" (egg souffle, ham, creamed local spinach, Havarti, and dijon on a potato bun) for takeout or to stay for a more leisurely lunch, like curried chicken salad on sourdough or the messy-but-delicious grilled peanut butter and homemade jam on challah.

  • 6. Rainbow Cafe

    $

    A downtown institution since 1883, this historic saloon hasn’t changed much in more than a hundred years. Locals donning cowboy hats and leather boots still belly up to the bar seven days a week for no-frills breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The Rainbow chicken, a half chicken coated in batter then pressure cooked, is a signature item.

  • 7. The Blythe Cricket Bakery & Bistro

    $

    Like many of the best establishments in Joseph, the Blythe Cricket was launched by talented locals—longtime friends Rachel Nutter and Margaret Lamm, who share a love for baking and for providing the community with tasty food and a comfortable, attractive place to gather over breakfast or lunch, both inside and outside. Start the day with an espresso drink featuring direct trade coffee roasted by Nosse Familia Coffee in Portland, or an artisan hot tea made with Metolius Tea from Bend. The breakfast menu includes such filling choices as a daily frittata, two breakfast burritos, baked oatmeal, and savory corn cakes that are gluten-free and filled with black beans and peppers. At lunch, choose from salads, soup, and tasty sandwiches like the Italian muffuletta, turkey pear panino, falafels on flatbread, and grilled cheese. The bakery case is filled with yummy treats that are known to sell out before closing time (2 pm). In summer, enjoy eating outside on picnic tables.
