Snowboard Mt Bachelor

     If your looking for a quick bite or a place to hang out with your friends and have some drinks. Then Parilla Grill on the Flaming Chicken roundabout on the corner of Galveston and Century Dr on Bend’s West side is the place to be. One of the local west side hangouts for many years now, Parilla Grill features all kinds of healthy and tasty wraps and one of my favorites, the fish tacos. With a margarita bar and several local beers on tap, you won’t have a problem finding something to satisfy your thirst.

     Parilla is also a huge supporter of the community, as they host multiple events throughout the year. The summer time also brings an outdoor concert series which is also part of the commute options program. What better than cruising on your bike and checking out the music on a warm summer night in Bend. With summer right around the corner it wont be long until we are enjoying the hot summer days. But as it is still winter, although a mild one, you can keep warm and full with great eats at Parilla Grill.
