Amazing options, great prices, flavor of everything we have had so far has been top notch, for sure has mountain ambiance to its location. The service is quick and staff is friendly and amazing and helpful!! read more

We stopped here for breakfast on a Sunday morning around 10am. Our girls group just had a fun weekend renting a local cabin and this was our final stop before everyone headed in different directions home. This place was busy and had no visible parking out front but we noticed a half broken sign that said more park..so we went down a gravel drive and found some free spots for our cars. It was so crowded inside we asked to sit out in the patio area. The weather was lovely and that mountin morning breeze felt great! I got the chicken fried steak and one pancake with the marionberry compote (only available in season jun-aug) on top. This was probably one of the better Chicken fried steaks I've had. Its season well, crunchy, and it sits on a bed of peppery gravy. The potatoes are soft and the eggs were cooked perfectly over medium. The biscuit that came with was also soft and buttery. If you're a CFS lover, I highly recommend this one. The pancake was for the table and we all agreed the marionberry was the star of the show! So sweet and citrisy! The pancake was golden crispy with a fluffy center and had a delicious vanilla note. It was a great place to fuel ourselves for the road while reminiscing on an epic girls weekend! read more

Wowza Ziggyzaggy Cafe! 1st visit to this cafe for dinner this eve. They offer a generous variety of plate options, Well drinks and excellent service at even greater prices! Full meals including drinks @ $41. for the two of us. Unbeatable service! read more

Wonderful breakfast! Eggs, bacon, potatoes and the best biscuit! The bacon was so good, thick and meaty. Service was great, too. read more

Prices are a bit high, ~$25 for most breakfasts, $8 for 2 eggs, but I'd imagine it's expensive to get ingredients out here, Staff was friendly, it took less than 20 mins from walking in the door to having food in front of me, super speedy! Food was good too I had the chocolate chip pancakes. Two huge pancakes for $18, I couldn't even finish the plate. Wood tables and chairs with a gorgeous view of the forest. read more

Beat full breakfast on this side of the mountain. Huge portions. Omelettes are amazing. Go hungry!

Went here for breakfast with my family, while on vacation. WAY TOO EXPENSIVE for this meal. WE were totally surprised at the prices and the food was mediocre. read more

Do not stop here unless you want an overpriced breakfast and the only other option is burgers that are way too expensive. I do want to compliment the young man serving that was very professional and attentive! read more

The service is extremely poor. We waited 30 minutes for 3 cups of hot chocolate. There was about 5-8 empty tables when we arrived. The food items are $20+ yet the staff is not pleasing at all. The food is decently good. For as pretty as the views are, the wait time for food and the service makes this place's rating go down. read more

The place is filthy and disorganized. The air and walls are greasy and gross. Seriously overpriced. Food okay. Service mediocre. Four employees standing around chatting instead of cleaning or filling coffee. Avoid this cafe at all costs. read more

We stopped here on our way home out of Government Camp (less than 15 mins drive) for breakfast. It was pretty empty for a Monday morning so we had our pick of the seats and decided to sit right by the window. I would describe the style as cabin getaway vibes. They have the main restaurant part and a deli section for grab and go things. There was also an upstairs area where the restroom was but I wasn't sure if it was actually open for dining (my toddler loved the wooden bear statue toilet holder! How cute!) There was a corner area by the fireplace mantle with board games that seemed very family friendly. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and were told we can sit wherever. And water and drink orders were taken right away. I got the Lumberjack Breakfast special with the sourdough pancake option (available when they have them) and the sausage was super flavorful! My husband got the classic eggs Benedict. We got enjoyed our breakfast potatoes and I'm glad his came with fresh fruit! I haven't made up my mind about the sourdough pancake yet but I would recommend coming for breakfast here in our out of your way from your Government Camp trip! read more

We stopped here after taking our dogs for a hike in Wildwood. I must say that I was skeptical when we walked in, because it smelled like their grease trap hadn't been serviced in a while. The young man that waited on us, was courteous and quick to greet us and bring our beverages. I ordered lemonade and it was delicious. My husband ordered an egg scramble and he said it was yummy....albeit a very large portion. I ordered a Monte Crisco sandwich and fry's and a small bowl of fruit. Again, the portions were large. I only ate 1/2 of my sandwich and took the rest home...it was very good and the fry's were thin and crispy..loved them. The fruit was hand cut and very fresh and seasonal. We would stop here again, when on the Hood. The prices are a bit steep, but understandable, being on the mountain. Needs must. read more

Expensive food. Uninviting and rude staff. Looks run down from the inside and not really much of a store at al. Outside is pretty though! ;)

Found what I needed for my camping trip at the store, 10 minutes from Lake Trillium. Super expensive but it is convenient. Nice enough staff and well stocked with last minute type items. read more

Absolutely incredible. The food was so good. You could really tell it was homemade. Best pancake of my life. The sausage was really delicious and had fennel in it. The jam was homemade and perfectly tart. The service was really great and the people that work there were kind. The atmosphere was glorious. It had a cabin feel, and they had a giant wood fire going in the fireplace at the front. read more

honestly fye, ambiance is tuff as hell and i bussed all over my french toast yo. sooooooo pneumonia

Unfortunately this was a less than pleasant experience and it seems that it is quite common for ZigZag customers to be left waiting for over an hour without acknowledgment and apologies. We should have known that this was par for the course. Initially we were very excited to stop by the Cafe after a long hike in the Mt. Hood area. We went inside and asked if we could sit outside on the patio. After 15 minutes had gone by, I went in and had to ask if a server would come by with waters and take our order... it took probably another 10 minutes to get 3 waters and a Bloody Mary. We sat waiting and waiting for our food. An hour and 15 mins went by... we contemplated getting up and leaving as that type of service is inexcusable. Reluctantly we waited and finally the food came. The only reason I've given them two stars is because the food was pretty good. I hate to write a review like this but the lack of customer service or acknowledgment is disappointing. They could have preemptively shared that there is a longer wait time or apologized but there was none of that. Very very disappointing experience. They need to get their service sorted out in a major way!! read more

Food was great, service was great and the server was very nice. Calm and relaxed ambiance.

Coming from someone who used to make biscuits every day, these are NOT biscuits. They're burnt scones. The coffee is below mid and my potatoes were undercooked. The chicken fried steak was pretty good though. The eggs were good as well but it's kind of hard to mess those up. The servers were nice but not interactive and it was very slow but I don't like to hold that too much against someone in this economy and working a service job in general. read more

Firstly the atmosphere is so adorable you really Feel like you're in a little mountain cabin. It was the perfect little brunch spot on our way to Mt. Hood. Can't go wrong with chicken and waffles!! There was a nice outdoor seating area. The country fried steak wasn't our favorite. The meat was sort of tough and thick, but I'd definitely stop here again when traveling through. It was an overall good experience. read more

Best biscuits in Oregon! I'm a southerner, and this is a proper southern biscuit, probably better than 90% of what you get in Texas. Crunchy exterior, fluffy interior, laminated in many layers. Perfect salt level. A thing of beauty. I had a scramble with a very generous portion--4 eggs. The marionberry pancakes are really good, with some crispy edges and buttered on the bottom. Atmosphere is typical mountain ambiance - full of wood paneling, eclectic, and so homey. Highly recommend the breakfast here! read more

Stopped here for breakfast on our way out from our airbnb - SO EXPENSIVE! I'm talking over $20 for any breakfast option NOT including sides, which were also ridiculous ($7.25 to add toast). Display cases were filled with uncovered prep fridge items, service was meh. We got up and left to find something more reasonable down the street. read more

First of all, I was looking for a breakfast place to eat. Of course they serve breakfast items but staying in this area for the last couple of days there wasn't many options to eat. On my way to see a client I stopped by for some black coffee. I was surprised to see that they were serving pizza in the morning at 7:30 AM. I asked if they could make me one and they obliged. This is one of the best pizzas I've had, it's not a New York style pizza is crispy at the bottom and toppings on top. after 20 minutes or so many locals started to appear. This was the place to eat in the morning. I was waiting outside on the phone and the staff brought me my pizza fresh. It was superb. The place appeared very welcoming. I couldn't ask for anything more. If you're in the area definitely stop by. You will not be disappointed. read more

It is a beautiful little rustic cabin restaurant, with good food and delicious homemade biscuits! They only have coffee, no lattes which would be a nice addition. This place would be 5 stars if they would organize the service a little better and add a "wait to be seated sign" when you come in and clean up the pay area to create a clean display case. read more

We have eaten here a few times and really liked it. They have a really good bacon cheeseburger, always a plus in my book. Everything we have tried has been good! Then one morning we stopped in and saw a buffet set up. A quick browse told us that there was nothing in it we wanted to eat, but they said they were still serving menu items. Tables were squeezed together so that we could barely get in with dad's mobility device. Service was extremely slow, not normal for them based on our previous visits. The next week they were no longer offering menu items, just the buffet. Hard pass, not our thing. If you're going there and they DON'T have the buffet, the food is good. If you like buffet breakfasts, you might enjoy it. They're no longer a breakfast stop for us. read more

Waited about an hour for food that tasted a bit bland for the price tag. Interior is cute but overall I'd look elsewhere for breakfast

I came here for breakfast we got seated immediately, the server mentioned the wait for food would be about 30 minutes and we were okay with that. They took over an hour and a half to bring food, and it was not busy in there. There were 3 other tables in the restaurant. They didn't stop by once to refill our coffee or water. The food was not worth the wait it might as well have just handed us the ingredients and sent us on our way because it took so long. Would not recommend. read more

Eaten here twice. Food made from scratch. Their biscuits are to die for!! I'm normally NOT a biscuit eater but their biscuits are so light and fluffy. I want the recipe! The chicken fried steak was outstanding. Not the traditional sage gravy either. The pancakes were standalone. No sides. But they were huge and covered in Marionberry and whipped cream. Service was friendly and staff did an excellent job in meal prep. Great place! read more

Food is amazing, the best biscuits I've ever had. Would definitely recommend. The service is good and ambiance was very cute. read more

We were greeted from the moment we walked in and had a server take our order in a timely manner. We ordered the veggie scramble and the Marion berry waffle. The food came out piping hot and was delicious! This is a charming little cabin up on Mt Hood and a great stop after a hike or before skiing! As far as the wait times mentioned in earlier posts from people, they cook your food to order so cut them some slack. read more

This place had the most amazing breakfast. The biscuits are homemade and probably one of the best I've ever had. Gravy was fantastic. I got the tostado scramble and no complaints. The wait for them to cook it is worth it! Plan to come back many more times. read more

Food was just ok, I wouldn't recommend or come back. Service was fine. Cool location and building but everything looked a little on the dirty side. read more

Comfy, cozy and very good breakfast! Sit by back windows for a great view. Scramble and brioche french toast were delish. Great service too

So the food once it FINALLY came was surprisingly pretty good. But overall the customer service was terrible/non existent and they were clearly understaffed. So we were trying to be patient but it Took more than 20 minuets just to get an employee to acknowledge our party, another 40 minutes for them to take our order and over an hour for the food. No apologies whats so ever and an older gentleman working only grudgingly took our order when asked and continued to ignore other guests around us. I hate to give poor reviews especially for a small local business that actually had quality food, if they hired a couple more wait staff and put even a minescule amount of effort into customer service it could be a solid spot. read more

Great service! When we arrived, the staff noticed I was interested in something different than food service. They greeted me kindly, and directed me to the area to purchase our Northwest Forest Pass! We will be back! read more

Giving 1 star based on getting food poisoning. Had the biscuits and gravy. Had been there once before for their pie which was outstanding. Maybe I'll just stick to that. Otherwise the staff is kind and the place is cute. read more

This never happens but we ended up leaving after 1 1/2hours. When we arrived we saw they were busy but they seated us an no warning about the expected wait. They came by and gave us menus and took drink orders very quickly. When the brought the drinks I wasn't quite ready to order so server went away. After 20 or so minutes hubby went in and gave our order. We waited an hour and spoke to server. They said it would be 15 more minutes. We spoke to another server and ended up leaving. Nobody apologized. Nobody acknowledges that we had been sitting at their table for 1 1/2 hours. We ended up going out for lunch at Brightwood tavern. We know that would be a good choice. :). Sorry about ZigZag cafe. read more
