Crush Cider Cafe

A must stop on your stay in Hood River. A gorgeous variety of ciders to choose from and very hospitable owners.

Great little find in Hood River. They are very knowledgable about local and craft ciders. Impressive tap and bottle selection, we will be back for sure!

We were spending a long week-​end in Hood River and happened upon Crush Cider Café. What a GREAT find! Sam and Guntram — the owners — have put a lot of thought into this venture. They want to make it a great experience. They know a lot about the ciders they serve — all local — which they vary to offer a ‘new’ experience every time. You have to keep coming back. The food is ‘home made’ and delicious as well. It is a drive from Portland but well worth it. Thanks Crush Café!

My wife and I stumbled upon this place while looking for a sub sandwich (next door). Glad to say that we didn’t in fact get a sub sandwich. Sat down at the bar and got a sampler to share. Great price and such an outstanding way to try so many new ciders. Sam (the owner) was really hospitable, and it’s very clear she has a passion for good ciders.
We also ordered the bacon parmesan popcorn, which was outstanding. Great place!

This place is awesome! I live about a block away and this cute little spot opened up so my roommate and I decided to stop by. The owners daughter was working and she is super sweet and very accommodating and polite! As soon as you walk in you can see the love the owners and the craftsman have put into this cider house. All of the woodwork is gorgeous! The interior has vaulted ceilings and AC/​heater. Or you can sit outside at one of their old school family picnic tables. I don’t drink personally but my roommate (who is a picky drinker) said it is one of the best ciders he has ever had. They also have a few beer selections on tap, as well as a small bar menu fir food and some other non alcoholic beverages. This place us conviently located about 2 – 3 blocks off of Oak street (right next door to the famous «New York City Sub Shop»). So it makes parking a breeze, plus it’s an easy walk I’d you want to try something new and your strolling in town. At the end of the day whether it be for food, brews, cider or to experience some true gorge hospitality… you MUST GO HERE!!!
