Crema's Take

Egg River Café is a beloved Hood River gathering spot where the wait is worth it—locals and visitors happily queue up for their thoughtfully made food and excellent coffee, with servers who genuinely care about getting your order right. The kitchen puts real love into everything from fresh breakfast spreads to loaded brisket fries and creative burgers, making it clear this is a place where quality ingredients and attention to detail matter. It's the kind of small-town café that fills up fast because word has gotten out, so arrive early if you can, but the warm welcome and bustling community vibe make it feel like exactly where you're meant to be.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

I stayed with my boyfriend very closed to this dinning, and the hotel recommended the place for breakfast 🥞 Delicious and very good prices, service is fast and they are very nice and explain the menu. I loved all the options, and had special drinks for brunch.

Around 11am almost all tables full but was immediately greeted and put on a list. Waited maybe 10-15 minutes. Orders only took 10-15 minutes to come out. Tastes excellent. Zero complaints for my dish. Fiancé’s dish - the meat was bit tough (3.5/5) but I would come back.

Just get here. They're serving up absolutely amazing food, so fresh, excellent ingredients, and clearly made with love. We tried the brisket fries, which were loaded with super tender brisket and cheese, 2 house made sauces and lots of Pico, and avocado. The chilaquiles were…
