The Last Blockbuster 🍿

Only in Bend,Oregon! Walking in was such a nostalgic moment. This place is set up like a small museum of so many great memories and movie memorabilia. You're still able to rent all the movies! From VHS to DVD - snacks, popcorn, and drinks are available for purchase as well to add to your movie night!

I loved being able to relive some memories here 🖤 definitely recommend visiting even if you're not planning to rent, just for the memories and vibes.
