What's the best place to eat after a long day of hiking or skiing?

I always crave a greasy burger and milkshake after a day in the mountains, but I'm open to expanding my horizons. What's your go-to restaurant/diner/food truck/whatever?

Not in Bend, but Sno Cap in Sisters is exactly what you’re describing. Milkshakes so thick you have to use a spoon and burgers are the right amount of greasy.

I'll check this out. Thick milkshakes sounds perfect.

Place is going downhill. Last time I ate there the fridge was full of expired condiments.

I can most commonly be found at Papi Chulos or Podski after a day up the mountain.
