A unique small-format retail space is available for lease at Whisk Kitchen in Bend, Oregon. The front retail area is approximately 225 square feet and has its own exterior entrance, making it a strong fit for a small retail operator, creative business, pickup-based concept, specialty producer, or micro storefront.
This is a compact, efficient space - not a large retail unit - and is best suited for a business that can operate with a small footprint and limited back-of-house needs. The ideal tenant would conduct most of their operation within the front retail area, with only minimal use of the back kitchen area as needed and agreed upon.
This could be a great option for a business that wants a customer-facing location without the cost or commitment of a larger commercial lease.

- Florist or floral studio
- Specialty food pickup counter
- Micro-bakery pickup location
- Packaged goods producer

Ideal Tenant:
This space is best suited for a tenant who does not need full commercial kitchen access on a daily basis. The strongest fit would be a business that primarily needs:
- A small storefront
- Customer pickup location
- Retail display area
- Consultation space
- Light production or assembly area
- Access to water/sink/restroom support
- Occasional minimal back-of-house use
This is not intended for a restaurant, full café, heavy production kitchen, or high-volume cooking operation. However, it may work well for a small producer, specialty retail concept, or creative operator with a focused business model.
