First off I like the aesthetic.its somehow evocative of Italian motorcycle culture. The drink menu is a blend of Italian favorites and PNW staples, creative syrupy options. I don't go for the sugar with my coffee usually so eager to try a quad shot 16oz oat milk latte as I sit among orange designer chairs and teak inspired ceiling sculptures. The fine art prints of paintings on display from a local artist YAMAMOTO hit hard and have affordable options in print form. I get my coffee drink after a short wait. This espresso will put hair on your chest. I'm covered in the stuff, so perfect for me. Clean bathrooms, standard service, nothing to complain about. Will be back. read more

Loved the list of seasonal options here! I decided on doing a Thai iced tea. It's kinda hard to mess that up but this one was very good! Good amount of tea flavor and wasn't too heavy on the cream. The Honey Bee latte was a bit on the watery side for me but I'm happy that I got the Thai tea for myself! read more

Ground is a cool shop. We came in and everything was neat and clean. We put our order in and had our coffees in just a few minutes. The coffee was okay. The brews were good, just not the members I've had. We drank our coffees there and had a pleasant time. Great service, good coffee! read more

Definitely the best place to drop in for pastries, coffee, and lounging in Hood River, Oregon. Exit 63! We were here a few years ago while passing through- on our way to Boise from Gresham. Believe me when I say the baristas are genuinely friendly and chill. That's my favorite part. There is plenty of parking outside and seating inside. I ordered the same cinnamon roll that I had a few years ago. It's between a cinnamon roll and a croissant ... flaky, crispy and soft in the middle. I really love the swivel chairs around the counter. It gives this coffee shop and Old Cafe feeling. I had to show the barista my Yelp video from 7 years panning the coffee shop. Now I have a new one. On this beautiful Tuesday, there are plenty of customers enjoying themselves just like we are. read more

Ordered a mocha to-go online. It was ready when I arrived and I found street parking out front. The flavor was not my favorite as it seemed to be more of a dark roast. Maybe there are better things to order than what I ordered! read more

I love the coffee here. Cardomom. Caramel Latte is so balanced. We came here every morning of our trip. I did try another coffee company once and the lattes were bland. Also recommend the breakfast! The egg Sammie's are amazing. The baked goods are fabulous too. The lemon blueberry muffins just came out of the oven and I inhaled one. What a perfect coffee spot. And they open early. Definitely recommend. read more

The food was delicious and the coffees were great! I wouldn't say the staff was overly friendly but maybe we just caught them on an off day. We ordered the BLT and Turkey Pesto, would definitely order again! So many fun seasonal drinks that I wanted to try but unfortunately we don't live locally! read more

Coffee was good. Service is hit or miss. When mom, dad, and the kids are ordering you can forget it. The staff doesn't redirect them out of the way until they are ready to order. Instead, the place comes to a standstill while everybody waits. I've tried Ground a few times and on occasion had to leave for Doppio Coffee in order to get timely service. "No Dog People Allowed" sign on the front door. That's an unwelcoming sign. There's room for a "No Kids or Goats" sign, but they didn't put one of those on the door. I wonder why? read more

This is the second time we have been to this shop. We ordered 2 Chunky Monkeys and a Vanilla Chai blended. I requested my drink with no coffee in it. All I can say is WOW. drinks were phenomenal. Prices were reasonable, the service was exceptional and was was definitely a great spot to hang out in after a long to hiking to hang out in. read more

Stopped in Hood River for a coffee break on the way to Pendleton and I'm so glad we did! We ordered two 20oz Iced Quad shot White Mochas with oat milk that had what seemed like thick homemade whipped cream and they were amazing!! Hands down the best Iced White Mocha I've ever had!!! Service was quick and employees were friendly! I also loved the vibe of the place and design/decor. The only problem is Ground coffee shop is 5hrs from where I live so I won't get to enjoy that amazing coffee very often. read more

I was very disappointed this visit. I had crabby condescending service, a very weak matcha latte, and the place was freezing.

cute coffee shop with good coffee & a warm vibe! however, I don't recommend for doing computer work or if youre easily distracted like myself. The wifi isn't strong & lots of people coming in & out. definitely a good place to meet a friend read more

Ground holds down the Eastern end of Oak, a Hood River main street before it turns to cross the Hood River. With their logo and sturdy fiberglass scoop chairs, they are referencing mid-century modern. They are in a vintage building marked by a plaque as the Yasui Brothers Mercantioe Built in 1930. There is a selection of outdoor seating facing South on Oak or in their North courtyard. With coffee, they have a selection of pastries, soup (in the cool months) salads and sandwiches. They have a seasonal special drink chalkboard menu. I had the vegan berry almond muffin which was full of flavor and the Tokyo Drip which wasn't too sweet. If course you can add more sweetening if you want more. I'm not a breakfast sandwich person but they have many choices there. They have a collection of small local artworks for sale. Mushrooms are the rage in art now as you can see. They also have some local small production foods like Wally's hot sauce and they use it in house too in the customer condiment options. It's counter service, so very fast. read more

One of the only local coffee shops that opens early! We were glad to be able to grab drinks before we headed out of town. My vanilla cardamom coffee was delish! Husband's Americano was weak, so maybe ask for an extra shot? read more

Everything you want in a coffee shop! Delicious coffee drinks, warm and inviting atmosphere, great pastries and sandwiches, plus friendly service. And music! Fits right in with the Hood River vibe! In the morning, I'm all about an Americano, I like to keep it about the coffee and nothing sweet. But on a warm afternoon I'm all for an iced mocha. Both are fantastic. Lots of breakfast sandwich options various cheeses with avacado, tomato, even apple slices. you Can add sausage or bacon to any. Also delicious scones cookies and muffins. For lunch, the variety of sandwiches is quite large. The turkey, Brie and apple hits the spot. This micro roaster is on the east end of Oak, a bit away from most of the shops, so make sure to seek them out. read more

Delicious lattes and even better breakfasts. I'll be dreaming about this breakfast bagel forever. It was so fresh and topped with sprouts it was even better. read more

Good and coffee and great pastries to pick from. Laid back atmosphere which is inviting.

Ordered an Americano with an espresso shot. The barrista asked, "you only want ONE shot?" This should have been a sign. I went with one shot. Coffee was watery and weak. Very disappointing. read more

These people make good coffee. When I say "coffee" I mean cappuccino (as I've written before; I guess I'm a cappuccino snob?). Anyways, the cappuccino was good and the cookie was good. The only issue I had was the poor service from the two young girls behind the counter. The girl at the register was great, but the two in charge of putting together the order were sloppy. They were looking at a phone and were more interested in laughing and talking with each other than doing their job and giving customer service. I'll go back to this place ... hopefully the service will be better next time. read more

I love the wonderful energetic feel of this place. I was camping in the area and drove into town on a Sunday. It's got a nice relaxing ambiance. This place is located on a trendy part of Hood River. The people working behind the counter were courteous and easy to talk to. I thought the service was very friendly I had breakfast here and it was a little bit on the small portion size - however the price was not high so I think it was fair One downside is the small bathroom size but that's nothing to be concerned about. Would come back here again read more

Beautiful atmosphere! And service! Poor oatmilk choice but the quality espresso compensates. A great chocolate chip cookie, and great bagels too! Only 4 stars because the Pacifica oatmilk! read more

My favorite coffee shop in Hood River! First of all, they weathered COVID perfectly and eloquently, without going overboard with the rules and hand sanitizer, like most downtown businesses in HR, while still creating a safe environment with masks and physical distancing. More importantly, the coffee and food are terrific! A little pricey, but it's worth it and is my weekly indulgence when I just want a coffee, a breakfast sandwich, and I just want to chill on their couch on a morning off. Also in perfect balance are the employees...neither in-your-face Dutch Bros nor angsty Freshies from across the street with minimal conversation. (I like Freshies, btw. They have great bagels, but I just don't expect much in the way of a friendly hello when I go there). Lastly, and also unlike most other downtown businesses, Ground seems like a politics-free zone. Everywhere I go these days, it seems as though I'm bombarded with political viewpoints in one form or another. It's so nice to just be able to sit, drink coffee, and look at photography on the walls. read more

The food was good, but the service was not. I have a dairy allergy and ordered soy milk. When I got the drink it tasted like milk to the point I had my friends try it as well to make sure I wasn't imagining things. When I went up to ask them to remake it because I was worried about making myself sick from drinking it (I did say I had an allergy hence why I was being cautious) the first barista walked away without saying anything. A second came up and started remaking it in front of me which was appreciated. It was not appreciated that she held the soy milk up to me with a glare and then rolled her eyes when I tried to say thank you. I've just never had hostility from asking someone to remake something due to allergy concerns? The remade drink also tasted different from the first so I had been justified in suspecting it was regular milk? I have thought over this interaction to try and find out why I could have made them so mad but I haven't be able to think of anything. I just don't recommend at all if you have any allergy concerns read more

Coffee was delicious, service was great, breakfast sandwich and scone were yummy. Would definitely go back.

AWESOME. Stopped in for a breakfast sandwich on a road trip & it was amazing. Fast service, cute ambiance, and seriously delicious food. Will absolutely stop here again the next chance I get. Can't recommend enough. read more

I came here for the bagel sandwich based off of a picture I saw on another review. It was not what I expected. The everything bagel was very plain tasting except for the few bites with the seasoning. The tomato was flavorless and sparse not what I was expecting. The savory croissant was very good and so was the medium roast drip coffee, and the staff was friendly. That plus them staying open during covid which cannot be easy is why they get 4 instead of 3 stars. read more

WOW!! We loved this place. We went here both mornings were we were in Hood River. We stayed at the hood river hotel , so this was just steps away. My boyfriend raved about the coffee - he loved the cortado with oat milk and their nitro cold brew (I tried sips and they were delish). They had plenty of other items - fun seasonal lattes, boba tea after 11am , matcha, etc. what was most excited was their food options - gluten free heaven! We got the coffee cake both days - blueberry and cinnamon and WOW!! They were so good. Moist, flavorful and they were huge. Their whole breakfast / lunch menu looked great - plenty of vegan and gluten free options (including bread) with local seasonal ingredients. We will be back and already miss this place. They were also quick. Both mornings we went in it was steady, but we didnt wait long. read more

If I lived here, I'd be a regular LOL ! Loved my Turkey pesto sandwich! It was perfectly delish with the kettle chips and a crunchy pickle. The pesto I believe is homemade and it was perfect. Also had the huckleberry white mocha which was a perfect combination of berry and white mocha flavoring - neither overpowering the other. If ever in town again, will stop by again for sure. I used the word perfect a lot ... that's how much I l over it here! Oh and the decor is fab! read more

Found this shop for fresh coffee while in town and really adored it. First, their espresso drinks are pretty delicious. I enjoyed a soy latte with an extra shot and it was delicious with lightly frothed soy, and standard priced. The inside of the cafe is decorated with interesting art that seems to be from local artists and gives a very hip feeling. There is a couch section with books and a few games for hanging out and tables for working. One point to note is the handle of the door is a hammer! There are standard bakery options that look to be homemade, a small menu and a few alcohol drinks available making this an adorable, well balanced spot to begin or end your day! read more

There are three excellent coffee options (and counting) in downtown Hood River. For several years, Ground has been my personal favorite. It is a combination of a great local product and wonderful atmosphere. The main seating area is a bit funky, so by far my favorite place to sit is in the side area on the couch below the ridiculously cute embroidered artwork. It is a vintage snow bunny pattern that always makes me smile. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/_HsrOLfOaEqyRbRAQ4mgFw?select=5y0fI8nEVWrIKU7FHokS0A I'm always pleased with the coffee drinks, but was also pleasantly surprised by their breakfast sandwich. Served with a side of sliced apples with a dash of cinnamon, I appreciated that little extra touch. Doppio strikes me as upscale and European. The most elegant of the local coffee options and a place that would be right at home in the Pearl District in Portland. Dog River serves Stumptown Coffee and has a younger, more hipster vibe. But people are more likely to be plugging away on laptops there. For me, Ground is just right. Having been a repeat customer at all three, the service just seems a little better and more personal here. It is a great hang in Hood River. read more
