We got the tirimisu loaf- omg I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did. My husband doesn't like tiramisu and he even loved it. Loaf was moist well balanced, not too heavy or sweet, and the icing was not a traditional icing. It was creamy like airy mousse - perfect balance! Highly recommended. Next, we have the blackberry lemon pastry. Wow another highly recommended dessert. The pastry was your flaky, buttery, croissant texture, and the blueberry feeling was perfect amount of berry sweetness. They were sold out some things, but I did notice a Earl Grey cookie that looked yummy. Service was very friendly. They have all kinds of breakfast and lunch items like sandwiches and wraps which I wish I would've ordered. Plenty of indoor seatings for middle and large group. Plus coffee and water.

The croissant was super flaky and I like that it wasn't so thick, so it was easy to eat, and our kids enjoyed it which is always a bonus! The breakfast biscuit sandwiches were huge and there was no shortage of egg in there. I also got to try the Tropical Matcha which had housemade mango syrup and passionfruit cold cream. It was really fruity and the matcha was actually nice and smooth, not too milky! I drank the whole thing super fast which is a sign of a delicious drink. I was surprised to find good matcha here in Hood River but it was a pleasant surprise and perfect way to start the day.

This is one of our go-to spots on Hood River. We've been here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and…read moresomehow they manage to nail it every single time. Today's mission? Split the St. Helens Burger, an order of fries, and a side salad with the recommended goat cheese (trust them--it was the right call). The burger was everything you want it to be. A fresh poppy seed bun, a perfectly cooked patty, sweet caramelized onions... and then came the poblano pepper. That little bit of smoky heat tied the whole thing together. Now let's talk about the fries because they deserve their own paragraph. These are, without question, my favorite fries. They arrived hot, crispy, perfectly golden, and had that satisfying crunch that makes it impossible to stop at just one. If you're a fry person, these alone are worth the visit. The side salad was fresh and flavorful, and the creamy goat cheese took it from "just a side salad" to something I'd happily order again. It was the perfect balance to all those delicious fries. If you're looking for a place that consistently delivers great food in a welcoming atmosphere, Kickstand Coffee should absolutely be on your list. We've yet to have a bad meal here, and it's one of those places we recommend without hesitation to friends, family, and anyone who asks where to eat. I now wish I didn't let my husband eat more of the fries. Gotta head back up there soon! Service was great and love that the girl at the counter asked me if I was doing anything fun today - extra friendliness goes a long way!

You can also contact Beverly, the owner, who will do special orders and even provide treats for events like weddings, celebratory parties, special dinners, anything! Over the years I have tried many items and loved them all. There are always unique flavors built into everyday pastries which take B's Sweets to the next level. For example, the maple scones have figs incorporated giving them both texture and contrast. The doughnuts are sometimes flavored with lavender, sometimes hibiscus, sometimes both, giving them a scent and flavor that elevates the ordinary doughnut to something truly special. Even though I am not gluten free, I often buy the GF shortbread cookies beautify decorated with an edible pansy flower. Trust me, you need to buy this for your next brunch or gathering. Not only do they add an artistic flair to your table, they are scrumptious! And all of your friends can enjoy them. The mini tarts - in various flavors depending on what's in season - are also decorated with pansy's and dried fruit. Just gorgeous ! The lemon tart is my favorite but recently bought the blood orange and everyone loved it. Sometimes there are purple tarts - lavendar - and while the color may throw you off, go for it! So good. There are various types of stuffed croissants, brownies, artisan chocolate bon bins and caramels, cookies, focaccia, hand pies, cinnamon rolls, lavender tea cookies and more! Really hard to make decisions. Luckily I'm there weekly so I get to try most everything. The lavender shortbread squares with half dipped in dark chocolate, sprinkled with lavender, are my favorite. Only available in the cooler months as chocolate melts in the heat, I always buy a box of 6 for $10. They also make a great little hostess or just because gift for a friend. You can also find these at the gift store at Hood River Lavender farm for a treat any day of the week. The owner and baker, Beverly, is the best! So kind, friendly and enthusiastic about her baked goods and the customers genuine enjoyment. Call her for special orders. She also provides dessert spreads for events. Your guests will love them!!

I am now a subscription customer, and always look forward to the Sunday morning delivery. The only drawback is the loaf of bread - it's not sliced, so I get a workout slicing the entire thing. But since I also subscribe to a butcher box, and some meat pieces warrant dividing them into smaller portions, I just had to order another appliance - my very own electric slicer! The bakers are very responsive to calls, and if something looks amiss on my order, they'll call to check it out. They even have a flock of ducks, so they can supply you with duck eggs. Those things are HUGE! Also delicious!
