The hummus platter was generous, and the toasty fresh bread was insane. Whatever the spicy sauce was in the hummus, we were fans. I had a killer salad, my husband had the pork sandwich. The service was lovely. That waitress was working her ass off outside and was super attentive and wonderful. Elevated bar food is an understatement. This didn't feel like a chain restaurant experience. Would eat here again in a heartbeat!

Their beer flights come with 6 pours each and it's served in a tall sail (or sharkfin?) shaped tower, each choice is labeled so you know what you're drinking. Their burger with bacon tomato jam was a 10/10! So much flavor and the bun was fresh and lightly buttered and toasted (this really takes it up a notch!). The meat was very tender and lots of flavor (tasted high quality). It's served with a heaping order of fries (or you can upcharge it for $2 and do salad, soup or sweet potato fries). Their chicken wings were tender and came off the bones easily while still having crispy edges. Perfection. After a swim in the river across the street, this place is a chill spot for good food, beer and service. They have indoor seating with views and outdoor seating as well. Inside was nice and cool on a hot day. I'm already looking forward to the next visit!

After picking cherries in the neighborhood, my husband and I decided to stop here for a quick meal…read morebefore heading back to our home. My husband has been here before but it was my first time. I was craving a burger and this place does not disappoint. The burger patty was thick and juicy and cooked to perfection. The cheddar cheese and bacon on the burger made it next level. My husband really enjoyed his burger and beer as well. When we arrived, there was indoor and outdoor seating available. We decided to sit inside, please be aware that it might be a bit cold depending where the air vent is located in conjunction to where you're sitting. The service was okay. My husband ordered his burger with bacon but it didn't come with bacon. However, we were charged for the bacon on his burger.

Spinning Wheels was a brewery long on my "to try" list for the Hood River area and I was super…read moreexcited to give them a try at long last. Upon arrival we saw a few different beers we wanted to try. Luckily quite a few of them were in cans which we took home but we had a beer there at the taproom also to absorb and relax at the taproom location. An adorable cat that more than likely lived there or put in a hard working shift of charming customers was present and we made over the kitty and pet it when it came to see us. Such a lovely cat! But onto the beer now! For the beer that we had at the taproom we had the Rice and Shine Japanese Lager. This was a pretty solid lager and one of my favorite types of lagers. I do love a lager that involves rice. Perhaps not the best ever that I have come across but still quite good. The flavor profile of this beer has a clean, crisp and refreshing aspects to it along with a biscuity flavor. The rest of the beers we had went home with us in cans. One beer was the River Pillow. This was a Pale Ale and had a nice, soft feel to it. The hop presence wasn't too overwhelming. We had another Pale Ale also. This one was called the Shredipede. This beer has a clean, crisp and citrusy presence to it. It is bright in hue and is nice and crushable which means you can have more than one with ease. Moving on from that was another kind of lager. This one was a Mexican Lager. The name of this one was the Pinche Chela. Mexican Lagers are another favorite lager of mine if not my #1 favorite for this beer type. This beer has a nice corn taste which provides a natural sweetness and the beer is nice and crisp. Again... perhaps not my most favorite version that I have had but enjoyable all the same. After that we went to darker beer territory and had a dry Irish Stout. I love these kinds of stouts because of that dryness aspect at work. Other flavor features in this are roastiness, oatmeal and the feel of it is smooth, creamy and soft. An excellent stout. This was a good stop and I am glad this brewery finally got tried out.

Came to Ferment Brewing Comany for lunch. Ordered the Cheese burger and a Coke…read more The Cole was great. But the service is beyond slow. 20 minutes in another part our group asked if the food was ready and was told it would take 30 minutes. After the half hour long wait was up we inquired again and asked that the food be changed to go because we did not have the entree afternoon to wait. When we finally got the food it was not made to go. I asked for that again since we'd be waiting like 45 minutes to which the employee corrected me saying it had "only been 40 minutes"and the employee declined, gave us two cartons so that we could do that ourselves. With just a few minutes before our ride arrived we return to our table to eat. I soon learned why the food took so long. Well done doesn't describe the burger patties. Both we so over cooked and burnt the they were crunchy with the overwhelming taste of charcoal from being so burnt. The French fries that came with it were also awful. The taste was that of fries that were quite likely older than the order we placed. So the Ferment Brewing Company wins the trifecta. Slow service, Ruid employees, and awful food. I trust that the great community of Hood River has some good places to eat but regrettably FMC is absolutely not one of them.

We arrived later than planned at the White Salmon location and hit the dinner rush, but were seated…read moreimmediately. We were grateful the patio was open -- it cut down on the indoor noise, and as non‑drinkers, we appreciated being away from the strong beer smell inside. Vegetarian options were plentiful and clearly labeled, which was a relief. We started with chips and all three salsas: red, mango, and queso. The queso had the only bit of zing, the red salsa tasted more like tomato sauce, and the mango salsa was delicious but very sweet. The chip‑to‑salsa ratio was excellent -- something many restaurants miss. The mains were slow to arrive, but understandable given the rush. The seasonal snap pea salad was beautifully presented and genuinely delicious, with a light lemon note and sweet pepperdew peppers. My husband ordered the pub cheeseburger with the vegetarian patty; he found it a bit spicy (he doesn't do heat at all), and I found it slightly dry, though I appreciated that it was a house‑made patty rather than the usual Beyond/Boca/Impossible option. I'm not one to linger after eating, so I always get impatient waiting for the check, but overall we would definitely eat here again. There were so many thoughtful vegetarian choices.

A nice refreshing beer was exactly what was needed after all the work rafting. For a starter we got the artichoke dip. This was some of the best dip I've ever had. I could have eaten this as my whole meal and ate too much that I wasn't super hungry when my burger came. I wasn't too upset about that though because the dip was a lot better than the burger. The bacon jam and onions on the burger were great, but the burger itself was slightly dry.

Working Hands Fermentation has been on my "to try" list for quite some time. In fact there were a…read morecluster of breweries I haven't tried in Hood River that I was very eager to try so a day trip to Hood River was in order. Working Hands was one of those and we noticed that this brewery specializes in lagers. We were very excited to hear this as we love lagers very much. I don't remember exactly what lager Steve got but it was a nice, crisp one as one would come to hope that this type of beer would have. It was tasty. And I knew exactly what I would be ordering. I saw that the brewery had a Mexican Lager which is one of my favorite kind of lager. So it didn't take much thought as to what I would be getting. The name of the beer was the Dorado Especial. Flavor features are what you would find in a lager such as this. A biscuity flavor, crispness and perhaps a touch of a corn flavor were at work here. It was quite tasty and very enjoyable to have. All of the breweries on our most recent trip here were quite good in fact.

Crush Cider Cafe was on my list to try and was a stop we made on our last trip to Hood River…read more Upon arrival we saw the cider menu and wanted to make sure we got ciders that this particular cidery made. So we tried a few by getting a taster tray. We got a sweet one and two others that were more on the dryer side. They weren't bad but all three had an after taste we couldn't quite pin down. In the end we thought it was maybe the kind of apples they uses or perhaps it was something they used or a method they used during the preparation process that made the difference but it was unfamiliar to us and we weren't sure what we thought about it. We ordered also from the appetizer part of the menu and got hushpuppies and liked those a lot. It had a dipping sauce, sort of a chili sauce you see at Asian restaurants that made a nice touch to this appetizer. The ladies that were working here were super nice and friendly. So with the good service and food Crush comes in at a solid four stars.
