White Salmon Baking Co.
80 NE Estes Ave, Hood River, OR
Crema's Take
“White Salmon Baking Co. is a beloved Hood River destination where the real stars are the house-made pastries and breakfast sandwiches—think cardamom buns, buttery croissants, and a bacon-egg-cheddar that locals genuinely rave about. The relaxed, family-friendly vibe with outdoor seating makes it perfect for lingering over fresh-baked goods, though arriving early is wise since the line moves quickly for good reason. Whether you're stopping by for their famous avocado toast or a salmon sandwich, this bakery captures that sweet spot between serious craft and genuine warmth.”

Hands down, from a lifelong local, my favorite bakery in all of Washington! If you are looking for slap-worthy avocado toast, mouthwatering croissants and salmon sandwiches, search no further. I am not even a pastry kind of girl, but this spot my exception! I’ve grown up eating here, and nowhere else in all my travels captures that same atmosphere and unbeatable sense of community as this cozy little spot
This is our second visit to the bakery. Last trip was for lunch and the sandwiches are amazing. This trip was for breakfast. Also amazing. The cardamom buns are great and the deluxe breakfast sandwich is also great. Last rip we bought a loaf of theor rustic sourdough and it was fantastic. Great service and atmosphere.
Fantastic place for fresh baked goods and breakfast / lunch items. Stopped in and got the bacon, egg and cheddar breakfast sandwich on an English muffin….EGGSELENT!!! 😂 Also got the BLT. The tomatoes were so fresh and juicy. The sandwich had a great homemade crusty bread with amazing homemade sauces. Also got the gorge berry bar. You MUST get this! So yummy. Also got a blueberry muffin…it was so fresh, big blueberries and not overly sweet…just perfectly sweet. Finally, we got the chocolate chip oat cookie. So tasty and filling! Everything is fresh and made in house. Place was clean with friendly staff. You will love it!
Gem. Excellent find and repeat visits during our stay. Nothing disappointed. The breakfast sandwich was a big hit as were all the pastries and cookies. Highly recommend even with a small wait. Line moved quickly and starts before the doors open.
This place was an excellent spot for breakfast. The avocado toast was absolutely delicious, and I particularly enjoyed the sweet peas inside. Pastry was delicious and fresh! The coffee wasn’t to my taste, but overall, I had a great time. The patio seating was great, offering a beautiful view of the mountains.
