“My husband and I dined here last night for my birthday, and it was truly an amazing experience from start to finish. Nathan and Sarah were an incredible duo! Warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate. Every dish was mouth-watering and absolutely delicious. We can’t wait to return!”
“Solstice pizza has some of the best pizza I have ever tasted. I will be back.”
“Great food and excellent service. I came pretty close to closing and they still sat me, never made me feel rushed and told me to take my time. I've been to a few spots in downtown where I was told they were no longer seating despite their posted business hours, so this was greatly appreciated and excellent service. That alone will keep me coming back. If it's your first time, my warning would be that medium spice is pretty hot (in my opinion).”

“We had such a good experience here. They were closing early today and we arrived a couple of minutes after. We were welcomed in and encouraged to order and stay as long as we wanted. The food was delicious and filling and served quickly. Wonderful, warm service is so special!”

“Thank you Boda's Kitchen for everything you do. You make everyday special and special days extraordinary. From the cookies, hot and cold sandwiches, fantastic salads (actually more than fantastic), roast chicken and potatoes, to your cheese and salum selections and all the tasty treats to go with. Then the special days, wow, your catering is absolutely the best. We all know that if it comes from Boda's, it will be incredible. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you”

“Blossom baking made our wedding cake and it was the most beautiful and most delicious cake I’ve ever had. I’m not even a huge cake person and it was so good I cried when I had the sample. Also, the owner was so incredibly kind and friendly and FUN to work with which is such a welcome quality when you’re a stressed out bride. She was so energetic and lovely! We chatted about decor for the cake and I sent her some photo ideas of what I was kind of thinking and she absolutely exceeded any expectation I had. My jaw dropped when I saw the cake it was absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much Blossom Baking for putting so much love and care into our wedding cake! I highly recommend them for any cake/ confection/ dessert needs you may have.”
“Went here a couple days ago with family, and shared a plate of the jalapeño cheese bread. You get the same access to food options as the Mesquitery, which is nice if you don't want to sit on the restaurant side of the business.
The staff are really nice and friendly and we had a great time chatting with our bartender. Would highly recommend for a fun night out drinking with friends.
They also have a pool table set up in back for those who wish to play.
Parking: As it's the heights, it can be hard to find parking on the main roads depending on the day, but there is some good side street parking near by.”
“Best food in Hood River! And right up there with the top restaurants in Portland, as well. Tasty seafood options, steaks, pasta. Good variety, focusing on quality over quantity. Beautiful presentation. Desserts are top notch and in appropriate proportions. Having been here many times over the years, we drove an hour from Portland just for dinner on a beautiful day. The views from the deck are wonderful!”

“This last weekend was our first time. What a wonderful, clean environment. Friendly staff, and both my husband and I feel some of the best Chinese food we have ever had! The General Tao’s chicken and it was so tender and incredible! I highly recommend this place, and we plan on making a trip to the gorge more often to enjoy it. Another positive, they have parking!”
“As a professional wedding planner, I had the great joy of working a wedding here in July and I was BLOWN AWAY by this venue, not only for it's views and architecture but also by it's company culture, customer service and love for clients. I have added this venue to our VIP Venue list for 2024+2025 which grants their clients a $200 discount on all wedding planning packages simply because we can't wait to work at this venue again!”
“What a rad little shop! Nice collection of taps and bottles/cans. Amanda and Ika were a treat to hang out with. Will definitely be back.”
“Came for a first time birthday visit with my Bestie. We were greeted immediately, handed a menu and offered a tasting, a glass or a bottle. We received a red tasting, and a white tasting, and, each wine was presented with great detail! Since my friend is a member, we also received a delightful charcuterie board. We ordered the truly INCREDIBLE artichoke dip off the menu... a must have! The wines were delicious, service fantastic, and the view and fall colors were stunning. In addition, we got to meet their precious baby doodle, Gracie... and, as if all that wasn't enough, we were given complimentary truffles for our birthdays!! Needless to say, I, too, am now a member. Love that they make recommendations for the Club selections, but will switch out if you're partial to something else.... no more wines left untouched in our cellar because they weren't my choice! Can't wait to share these delicious wines with family and friends over the Holidays!!! Thank you Carrie (sp?) and Stave and Stone Estates for a great day!”
“We brought family in from Texas who were visiting for the first time in 10+ years. They remembered The Pines and old vine zin from a decade ago and wanted to make sure they returned. Geoffrey made it a great experience for them.. loved everything they tasted. Some old vine Zin will make its way on Alaska airlines back to Texas!!”

“We found ourselves in Hood River and looking for a place we could enjoy some local ciders. Crush Cider Café was it! The service was friendly and welcoming, the selection of ciders was large with something for everyone's tastes, and everything we sampled was delicious. We ended up leaving with a 6-pack of ciders canned on site with our favorites. Their tacos were phenomenal, and the warm house made corn tortillas were fantastic. We dined outside and the patio was cozy. Definitely make this a stop when you are in Hood River if you are looking to try a wide variety of ciders and enjoy delicious food!”
“Nice spot. Parking can run hot and cold. Excellent shop, well taken care of. Slim on staffing, adequate to the task. Fewer food offerings than some other places, but nothing to knock them on. It was all excellent. Family friendly. Plenty of 4 tops can easily be 6, or taller tables for couples.”
“Pine Street Bakery ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ On 9/15/22, I stopped in Hood River, Oregon to check out Pine Street Bakery. Owner Megan Davis’s mother started Grand Central Bakery in Seattle, Washington in 1972. Today, there are 11 locations between Portland and Seattle. If you ever have an opportunity to visit a Grand Central Bakery/Café, I recommend it. I wanted to try one of their famous Cardamom Knots, which are Challah dough slathered in Vanilla Butter, covered in Cardamom Sugar and tied in a Knot. Unfortunately, they were out. I got a Carrot Cake cupcake ($5), which is one of their best sellers, as well as a Maddie Cake cupcake ($5). The Maddie Cake cupcake is a seasonal cupcake that changes with some regularity. The current Maddie Cake cupcake is Peaches & Cream. It is Vanilla cake filled with Peach compote made from local peaches, topped with a Vanilla Swiss Meringue Butter cream frosting. I enjoyed both cupcakes but my favorite of the two was the Maddie Cupcake because it was so unique. There was a generous amount of peach compote in the center of the cupcake, as well as on top. The compote had great flavor. Both cupcakes were fairly dense but moist. In addition to the baked goods and breads, Pine Street Bakery has Breakfast, Lunch, and Coffee menus, as well as specials. They also sell a lot of other products and fresh flowers. Highly Recommended!!!”
“As a regular Dutch bros Shoutout to the night crew at Dutch Bros! They are ALWAYS so nice, friendly, and full of good vibes. They make me feel like family every time I come through and never fail to cheer me up and make me laugh. Hands down the best service—y’all are amazing! 💙☕️✨”
“I've been here a few times now. This is my favorite bakery I've found on the Fruit Loop so far. I love their strawberry and huckleberry cinnamon rolls, and 2/3 of the cookies I've tried have been great. The third (tart cherry) had way too much baking powder, but honestly, that kind of error once in a while just helps prove they're homemade. They have over a dozen creative flavors of cookies, three or four kinds of cinnamon rolls, and a few varieties of empanadas. The cinnamon rolls and empanadas are currently mix and match 3/$15, or $6 each. If you're camping and happen to have a cast iron pie press, I highly recommend reheating the cinnamon rolls this way. I also tried their non alcoholic honeycrisp cider, and was so happy with it. It's at least as good as my favorite cider from my favorite farm at Apple Hill back home. Aside from having great pastries and cider, Packer Orchards also sells all kinds of local jams and homemade ice creams. They always have a plethora of local dips, sauces, and condiments out to sample. They also have some custom made Instagram photo ops out in their orchards. The girls who work here are all super friendly. Love this place.”
“We found another Papa Murphys location in Hood River, OR, that has pizza pie making down to a science. Generally, we order our favorite, customized pizzas from the 192nd Vancouver WA store, but happened to be in Hood River today. Awesome pizza pie, exactly what we ordered and prepared in amazing time. We ordered through the app and expected at least a 30 minute to an hour wait. This is 3/4/25, PIDAY25 and as busy as this team was, we got our pie in very short order and it rivals pizza from our go to Papa's location. I'll attach the image from just before the bake and another taken after we were quite satisfied, (yes this entire pizza nearly disappeared in minutes.) Thank you Hood River team. Awesome work including the smiles!!!”
“Great burgers. Friendly service. Live music! We love this place.”

“The perfect coffee shop! The barista is super friendly and helpful! The hand-crafted drinks taste like they are made with care, not just churned out of an assembly line. The breakfast burritos are fresh and delicious. The outdoor seating is lovely, but if you are in a hurry, it's easy to get in and out fast. Prices are very reasonable. Great place!”
“Small hole in the wall place. It was perfect not too busy . A section where 12 Adults could sit comfortably amd eat. Otherwise comfortable booths with soft lighting. And the prices cant be bet here in Hood River period.. bigger portions and tasted amazing. Camerone la creme had 10 shrimp in it. Was 15.00. (5.00 off seafood on weekends) mixed drinks tequila sunset 8.00. Blows extapa out if the water. The stuff very polite and friendly. Its now our local go to Mexican restaurant..”
“We drove out from Beaverton today to enjoy all the autumn leaves and ended up at Divots. The fish in the fish and chips was delicious. And our server, Grace, made the experience absolutely wonderful.”
“Amazing food and amazing people. Every time I’m in Hood River I come here. From drinks to desserts you will have an amazing experience. The owner makes amazing drinks and makes all his guests feel like they’ve been best friends for years. If you’re anywhere remotely near Hood River, you need to treat yourself to this place.”
“Highly recommend for a great atmosphere and great drinks. We enjoyed our evening on the patio next to the propane fireplace, drinking the special of the day, sharing a pizza (perfectly cooked) and listening to the live band”
“Wonderful unique drinks. Best nachos ever!!!!! The staff were so nice!!!”
“We love Ferment for its social flare, great beer, tasty food and the best view of the Columba River Gorge!”

“Food is consistent and cooked to order. A special shout out of appreciation to Tilly Jane’s as they will often get young teens in to grab a bite after school/before a game. The entire staff has always been gracious to the kids. Thank you for being welcoming to all ages (and for having a menu that even picky teens love).”

“I only go through the drive through but I like it here. They just opened up and had the interior re done and outside repainted and updated. Looks great. I wish taco bell kept the veggie burrito, I'd get it every time when they had it. I'm happy it's open again. Here is a picture of my cat watching me as I eat a cheesy bean and rice burrito”

“I came here yesterday for lunch with some girlfriends and am enamored. Beautiful space, friendly and attentive service, and big windows with natural light. The gift shop is full of British kitschy charm - Agatha Christie, Jane Austen, and Charles Dickinson-themed goodies, lovely jewelry, beautiful candles. I got my first set of tarot cards - Jane Austen themed, naturally.
The food truck offers a limited but delightful selection. I had the grilled cheese and tomato soup (my inner child won out), and I ate every bite. My friends ordered the ham baguette and the kale salad, which they loved.
I’m excited to come back and enjoy a cocktail. The menu looks creative and delicious.”
“Amazing food and service. Everything was of the highest quality. Can’t recommend enough”
