Our 3 year old kiddo has multiple nut allergies and thought we would be unable to get him ice cream. One of the workers kindly opened a separate Ice cream container just for him so he was able to eat it. It was his first ice cream experience and he loved it. I know they probably can't do that for everyone but I was very thankful they were able to accommodate us. read more

Great place to get a treat in the Hood River area, especially after a long hike. It's located in this adorable little house. The line was long but moved quickly. No credit cards allowed, the sign has details on ways to pay - luckily my group had cash. There is no seating inside but plenty outside. The huckleberry milkshake was delicious! Not too sweet, super creamy, and you truly enjoy fresh pieces of huckleberry with every sip. read more

Delicious ice cream and friendly service. Cash or check only fyi but worth the effort if you don't carry cash!

Super cute place to grab some ice cream, milkshake, or a sundae. Luckily had a few dollars but it's cash only. I never carry any cash anymore. There was no line. I Ordered the sundae & opted for the coconut, butter pecan & pistachio ice cream. It's so good! They accept IOU but I'm not sure how many people have actually paid up. There's a wall of Shame for those who don't pay up so just pay up plus who allows an IOU these days? So be sure to pay your IOU or just pay with cash. There's no seating indoor but some seating outside. They sell merchandise like caps & tshirts. There's street parking you can pay for. There's other shops nearby. Cute town. read more

Good selection of flavors with high quality ice cream. Staff are good kids from the community. Like a trip back in time.

Cash or Check "ONLY" Not sure what the hype is all about? I tasted the peach sorbet, chocolate and lemon. Just tasted sweet with the subtle flavors. I think Haagen Dazs tastes a lot better. But that's just me. Service was friendly. Getting ice cream from a little home. Great spot for the family and kids. read more

This is where the locals go for ice cream! We were in town celebrating our 50th after hiking and eating around the corner at The Sixth Street Bistro, which was also amazing . I got a kid's scoop as did my husband but it was a lot! So tasty! Be prepared for a line and have cash! read more

Same experience as I had for my last review. Tasty and cute, a solid 4 stars. Staff were really friendly and got us a bunch of samples. Their ice cream is from Prince Puckler's in Eugene. They were out of sugar cones (bummer) so I paid a little extra for a waffle cone. Got a baby scoop (still a lot, but next time I think I'd get the kids scoop) of the turtle and it was great. read more

Mike's is definitely a treat and worth the wait in line. I love his sign at the door!! Great ice cream! I had the red raspberry, my grandkids had the double chocolate chip. Both were delicious! read more

What a cute spot! A walk in ice cream place with plenty of flavors to choose from. They also sell very cute merchandise as well (I was eyeing those baseball caps). I had the Mint Oreo & I loved it! Husband had raspberry cheesecake and he enjoyed it as well. They even let our dog have a pup cup (vanilla ice cream). They had plenty of outdoor seating which was so nice to just eat our ice cream and enjoy the evening. Note: they only take cash or check! read more

I have always wanted to try Mike's but usually am here when they are closed. The staff were all super friendly and knowledgeable. I got the K Chip which was delicious. There were lots of great dark chocolate chunks and beautiful texture. I wouldn't have minded a slightly stronger coffee flavor, but that's a personal preference. read more

Super cute and quaint ice cream shop in the downtown Hood River area! The servers were so friendly and patient as we excitedly tried their fun flavors (like marionberry or even banana ice cream!). They have a cute sitting area with a little play area for little kids which is so cute and lovely. We hope to come back and try even more of their flavors soon! read more

I love Mike's! I make it a priority to stop by whenever I am in the area, it is a must. Banana is my go-to but you can't go wrong with any flavor really. I always get the kids scoop and it is more than enough! They say the baby scoop is the size of a golf ball but it seems bigger than that actually. Cash only but they do IOUs! I forgot cash once and it wasn't a big deal at all. read more

Mike's Ice Cream - banana kids scoop! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Hood River, Oregon

Road-tripping through Oregon and staying a night at Hood River. When I searched for top destinations in Hood River - Mike's Ice Cream was highly recommended. I chuckled when I arrived and saw its business hours and realized why this spot is the "happening" spot in town (because everything else around the area is closed by 5pm). Loved the patio and the chairs, it was nice to sit, relax, chat and enjoy my double scoop ice cream on the waffle cone. The boys at the counter were really nice and patient and allowed me to sample several of their ice cream. The banana and coffee ice cream was delicious! Love this place. Definitely stop by for a scoop of ice cream if you are visiting this part of town. read more

Great ambiance, lots of kids and families. The ice cream was delicious. Service is friendly but it is a cash only spot.

This is a great local spot that has great ice cream, especially ice cream sundaes if you're into that type of thing and I had to get a Neapolitan one that's perfect for the spring or summertime weather. They have a great little selection. It's a small, very small little shop but cute and I am assuming this has been around for quite a while because I swear I've seen it when I was a kid but I could be wrong. This is a great staple of the community and it keeps going as the places here are local in the small town. read more

Very nice people work there, but they still use synthetic dyes in their ice cream. We will come back when you use more natural dyes or no dyes. read more

I usually love Mike's, and my daughters especially do. But today was one of my worst experiences in the 12 years I've lived here. The young angsty girl with the dyed bright red hair gave me one of the smallest scoops I've ever received. Then, I gave her a $20 bill to pay. When she gave me my change, I tipped her a $1, put the rest in my pocket, and walked out. When I got up the street amd went to put the change in my wallet, I relaized she had only given me $4.50 back. Thanks, Mike's. Enjoy your $11 tip, I guess. read more

A cute local spot in the town of Hood River. I've always seen a line through their doors but with such friendly service and yummy ice cream, it's not surprising why. They only take cash but are sooo eager for you to have your ice cream first that they're also open for you to mail in a check! Their ice cream flavors were straightforward but very well done. The Coffee ice cream was super rich and had a strong espresso taste. The Pistachio and Almond was also very nice. Loved the texture from the almond mix-ins. Totally would come back for more whenever I'm in town! read more

Worst customer service right when you walk up with a condescending sign that informs you that they only take cash but they also make a stupid little joke out of it and tell you to write them an IOU and gives directions to an ATM (which is no longer there by the way), it's 4 blocks away! Maybe don't make a joke out of the inconvenience to your customers? read more

Best way to finish a day of shopping on Oak Street is a stop at Mike's for some really delicious ice cream! Located right next to the Ruddy Duck, there are lots of bright Adirondack chairs in shades of turquoise to sit and enjoy your dish or cone. They are generous with their servings and have the usual flavors plus unique offerings. Salted caramel is my fave and I tend to get it every time. On a warm summer day they get super crowded so make sure to bring your patience! They work through the line as fast as possible. We stopped by around 2pm recently and totally lucked out, being second in line. We moved a chair into the shade and enjoyed our cold and sweet treat while people watching and enjoying the crisp fall day. read more

Mike's Ice Cream - people sitting under umbrellas - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Hood River, Oregon

There is a very good reason why there was a line outside of this little ice cream shop in Hood River. The folks inside were doing their best to get us in and out. Limited seating outside but we got lucky. I'll say that Galaxy ice cream is the way to go. Essentially a pumped up chocolate chip ice cream with big old chunks of dark and white chocolate. They are cash only but with a check option? Which we thought was a joke, but they do have something worked out with another store in the neighborhood. Compostable cups and spoons, so there's that. It was a good place to stop at after a great dinner up the street. Enjoy. Support local. read more

A great stop on a hot day. And a great value. $10 for generous amount of ice cream for 2. Super friendly staff steered us toward chocolate obsession and salted caramel (they very nicely split the very generous scoop) Nice area outside for sitting and kids play area. Ask for info on close restroom if you need it. read more

Lots of flavors to choose from. The staff were friendly & personable. Great location to be able to enjoy our ice cream & sit on the lawn. Local owners. All around a great spot. read more

I have always loved Mike's since I was little,I love the cute siting area and the kids play area.the works are nice and do their best to be efficient.and The lemon yogurt is so so good! read more

Me and my girlfriend got 2 yummy big single scoop ice cream cones. Service is great and the place is cute! Don't forget cash!

This place is adorable--it has a great vintage, rambling vibe. There's a teeny-tiny garden, crammed full of chairs of all sizes, perfect for chilling on a hot day. Our kiddo loved the garden; we had to go twice over our short trip to Hood River. In terms of the ice cream itself, none of the flavors we tried were particularly amazing, but we didn't mind. The vibe (and proximity to another Hood River favorite--The Children's Park) made Mike's Playground perfect for us. read more

They only accept cash or check! But it's a cute little place with a lot of delicious ice cream flavors. Raspberry Cheesecake was soooooooo good!!!! Definitely a must if in the area. The have a really nice outdoor seating area for cool and breezy days. I came at the perfect time of the year. Enjoy! read more

An adorable little ice cream stop in Hood River that we made a point to come back to. Seems we weren't the only ones with this thought, as there was quite a crowd around and the workers were doing a great job running the line smoothly while being friendly. My partner's scoops of banana and galaxy were both very good and creamy. I ended up with the raspberry sorbet, because it was the only non-dairy option. Being lactose intolerant, I was quite disappointed there weren't more dairy free options (seems like I'm seeing a soy and/or coconut milk ice cream option pop up all over the place now). Anyways, I was not in the mood for a sorbet so I'm not sure if it was really just average or if I was just not in the mood for it. To end on a positive note - they use compostable cups and spoons! read more

The cutest lil small town ice cream shop I've ever been to! Lovely outdoor area with a plethora of benches & chairs to enjoy desserts. The service was fantastic. We didn't realize it was cash only & the sweet girl at the counter didn't hesitate to tell us "I'll give you an IOU!" Kindly dished up our order & gave us directions to a close by ATM. No rush on getting back to make our payment, she even said we could come the next day if that's easier. They've been doing this IOU business since the 80's she told me. They get their ice cream from a small local creamery in Eugene. It's super creamy & delicious. We got pumpkin pie & snickerdoodle. Both amazing. 10/10 recommend & will be stopping her every time I pass through. read more

Excellent flavors. My fav is the fresh banana. This place is super popular. A definite go to!

So happy i got to stop on by here and try their Oregon bing cherry ice cream! Super creamy & delicious. Definitely looked like the popular pick since it was almost empty in the ice cream tin! read more

The good: ice cream The bad: very small space when ordering, lots of people talking at once, and the line not being in order. Very pricey because it's Tillamook ice cream (a sundae bowl with the works is $6, but a simple two scoop cone is much more) read more

Very nice - good selection of flavors, creamy, delicious, satisfying. Great place to come after having some very good tortas and tacos Just up the street. Will be back They take cash and checks BUT will accept an IOU which you can then send them a check or go to the ATM. Trusting! A rare find in today's world. read more
