If a bacon, egg and cheese Hot Pocket is the Cadbury Egg of breakfast pastries, Nancy P's Cafe & Bakery's bacon, egg and cheese pocket is the Fabergé egg. On a recent morning in the bakery off Newport Avenue, owner Katy Clabough made mention of the skyrocketing price of eggs. Would all of Nancy P's breakfast pockets be eggless soon? No, assures Clabough, but eggflation is the reason the morsels now cost $11.50 when they were under $10 in late 2024. Nancy P's is not alone.

By Brian Yaeger It’s not quite as high as the number of local breweries, but Bend’s roasteries number in the double digits. And no, that’s not counting the number of coffee shops that utilize beans from separate roasting companies. Catching up with a few owners offers a slice of life in Bend coffee culture as sweet as, well, a slice of coffee cake.
