Spacious coffee shop great for remote work. Love the ambience. I had the masala chai and it was made pretty well. Would Definitely stop by again

This place was a lot better than expected. I was skeptical before going in as it looked kind of rundown from the outside and even when going to the website you can't even pull up a menu. Fortunately I went in and saw that this place is actually really cool with the nice layout and friendly service. I had a caramel latte that was good along with bacon and egg quiche and strawberry gluten free muffin. Both of those were tasty. They didn't have a condiment area with sleeves, sugar, stir sticks, etc. Bottom line, freshen up the outside, get a good online website and have a condiment station and you'll be great!!

I love this place. Good coffee. The owner is awesome, makes the experience fun. Inside there's a lot of space and the decor is cool. Feels so relaxed and not stuffy. Free, very fast wifi.

I can’t believe I’ve never been to Dog River Coffee before today. I think I’ve hit every coffee shop in Hood River, but missed Dog River until now! What a pleasant surprise, large space, plenty of tables, can accommodate wheelchairs. I loved every minute of my experience, from the barista’s welcome, to my drink and GF chocolate muffin. This shop is a staple in town for the last 17 years! Go check it out! I highly recommend the cardamom caramel latte. It was well balanced and not too sweet and the cardamom flavor really came through. I will definitely be stopping back in the next time I’m in the Gorge.

Great coffee shop with the best service in town. Good espresso with some simple snacks. This place is more geared toward malingering with it's spacious, comfy, softly lit seating area. Perfect for reading, doing some work, or a conversation with a friend. Nothing but respect for the owner and employees. Give them your business and tip generously.

Four words MAPLE. SEA SALT. LATTE. Caught my eye immediately on the menu. As a tea drinker coffee doesn’t usually do that. But this stuff shouldn’t be called mere coffee it is DIVINE. By the number of times I heard it called out as ready for pick at the end of the bar, It might be what people go to this shop for. That and possibly the peanut butter cookie. Service is “ relaxed” and atmosphere beyond the window seating a bit dark and drab. This Latte though ? Worth the stop!

One of my favorite coffee shops in downtown Hood River. Usually quite and very relaxed vibe with plenty of seating and table space to work on your laptop. The chai latte is my go-to.

We stopped in to grab coffee on the way to our Vendor event, and although finding parking was entertaining on a Friday morning, the ladies running the place were super sweet and the served Coava Coffee, which is a favorite! It was obviously a place where people came to chill and work and is larger than it looks on the outside with a super cozy atmosphere.

Great environment, super friendly staff, nice couch, great coffee, good wifi, exquisite restroom key. If I lived in Portland, I would almost live in this place. Highly recommended. I found it easy to park nearby during a holiday weekend.

Excellent espresso and customer service. The atmosphere is open, cozy, and fun. The shop is decorated in old antique decor and furniture with local artists featured on the wall. There is usually a wait but it's well worth it. People know you by name if you frequent there and all the employees are friendly and fun. This is my favorite coffee shop in the gorge.

I’m quite picky about coffee; hence rarely leave reviews. I love this place! The coffee is outstanding and the baristas were very friendly and knowledgeable about their beans, which is always a good sign. I was intrigued to learn about the Coava beans they were using instead of Stumptown (!!) and highly recommend purchasing some of the beans they have for sale, which they will grind for you to desired consistency.

Not great. I love trying new coffee stores on my travels but the espresso in my cortado was burnt or the machine needed a clean. The muffin was also not all that, small and dry for the price.

I.... Love.... This.... Place. Best breakfast burrito... So yummy! Black tea (iced) very flavorful. Nice folks too! My wife says the coffee is incredible and made me detour here multiple times during our week in Hood River. We will be back!

Great cold brew, lemonade and bakery items. Love the interior, very modern and minimal but with a touch and nod to mid century modern and the history of the building. This was the old Hood River News 🗞 printers location with 7ft deep of concrete flooring for the old letter press machines! Love seeing the history embraced and remembered!

I got a 16 oz breve no flavor because I carry my own maple syrup to put in my coffees when on the road. I was dying for a great coffee and am so happy I stopped here. The price was worth the product. My coffee was excellent I'm back home in MT and still craving their coffee! Thank you for giving me EXACTLY what I was hoping for while on the road! My aunt and life partner were both very impressed too!

Very nice people, comfortable and quiet. The espresso drinks are so-so to my taste, but this is a personal preference. Cold brew is good, and they use coffee ice cubes so it doesn't dilute as the ice melts. Not usually a wait, plenty of space to find a spot and read or work pleasantly and quietly.

Nice place and serving all your coffee in paper cups

These guys had a nice space, solid selection of both on the go food and drinks (including options for those of us with the misfortune of having nut, dairy, and gluten allergies), and incredibly friendly staff. Our order was quick to be ready and both me and my dog felt very well cared for (both baristas came out to say hi to my pup during quiet periods). I don’t live in Hood River but will certainly be coming back to this spot when in town.
