Egg Harbor Cafe - HOOD RIVER

When ordering new places, I usually like to try their convicted bovine rabbit. Egg River Cafe offers short rib hash. I've decided to try it instead of the beef... I'm so glad I did, it was incredible and hearty. So many other great dishes I would like to try the next visit. Interesting and friendly staff, great service and fast. I'll be back soon.

This place feels like home. A very busy home where people are willing to wait, willing to take the next seat or booth ready just because the food and options are so great. A good breakfast place is tough to find in my opinion. Either it’s a greasy spoon diner, or a overly fancy place that takes away from the quality or ingredients that people crave. Egg River cafe not only has an incredibly large and diverse menu, but they offer everything from the basics to the most sophisticated options. I am simple, I can go for a Egg or two, some bacon and a cup of coffee and be content. My wife, she prefers the Eggs Benedict, add spinach and tomato. Bring the hot sauce and we are both happy. Next time, I am definitely getting a skillet or the fried chicken and waffles It’s busy, be patient, they also serve good sized portions, bring some home…don’t waste.

So delicious! Great coffee. Service was wonderful despite how incredibly busy it was. Popular spot for a reason!! If you're going on a weekend, be patient. It's worth it! Pictured below is the huevos rancheros with house potatoes; eggs ordered scrambled. House potatoes are amazing! I ate everything (besides licking the plate).

On May 18, 2022, I enjoyed breakfast at the Egg River Cafe in Hood River, Oregon. This charming spot serves both breakfast and lunch, and it's my absolute favorite place for breakfast in the area. I find it to be far superior to Bette’s Place, which is another popular local spot. I indulged in their delicious Eggs Benedict priced at $13.95. Additionally, they kindly provided me with cream for my coffee ($3.50) free of charge, which was a nice touch. The service was outstanding as always—my server, Laura, was incredibly warm and friendly. I also appreciated the young woman who assisted me with my request for a table by the window. I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough; the food and the wonderful staff make it a standout choice. Highly recommended!

The food was absolutely delicious! The white gravy had a delightful pepper flavor, and the omelettes had the perfect amount of cheese—not too overpowering. The vegetables in the omelettes were fresh and flavorful.
