What a fun restaurant a bit tucked away into a neighborhood on the side of a (really cool) bike store. Good service, nice beer and mimosa, and inventive breakfast. I had the barbacoa Benedict, and my husband had something called Ricky Bobby (would love to know the story behind that name). Both were delicious with completely different flavor profiles from each other. I'd love to come back to try more than the brunch menu. read more

Just had one of the best chili rellanos ever! A favorite spot in Hood River and service is always great!

Another neat spot to checkout in Hood River for brunch. Iced coffee was delicious. Service unfortunately was slow but they were packed and it was Father's Day. We didn't mind hanging out and catching up with family. Food was tasty, different and we will be back! No pictures because we ate EVERY LAST BITE! read more

Large outdoor patio with a hard to warm up to fire pit. Tables need a good scrub down & rinse. Pup friendly. Service ~ meh. Almost self-serve everything besides the food brought out to you. All the staff needs to do at this point is welcome guests and a simple smile. Not performed. Interesting menu ~ Indian flair, good solid kick of spice. The value ~ sandwich came with 2 fries, pizza palm sized. A spot or two for parking? Will have to park a block away off the street for most. Neighborhood chill joint, great for a beer after a hike. read more

Kickstand Coffee & Kitchen was a hit for me and my friends, we wanted somewhere to eat after hiking and saw they had a cheeseburger with onion bacon jam & goat cheese that we needed to try & it was bomb! The meat was perfect and all the tastes flowed perfectly, the fries were very filling & they had 2 kinds of aioli to dip in and both options were delicious! For appetizer we got the guacamole trio and it came with 3 guac flavors and seasoned tostada shells that were delicious! We were to full for desert but next time I'm out that way I'll definitely give the cheesecake a try. read more

Nice, hip coffee and food spot. Very good coffee. Best I have had in the area. You order everything at the counter. Good lunch options but they made a few minor mistakes with our order. The service was very good though they promptly fixed the issue and apologized. Unique flavors, amazing fries. Coming back tomorrow for breakfast! read more

This place is so awesome! We were hoping to catch breakfast because the reviews and photos of the breakfast sandwiches are absolutely out of this world! That's OK we will definitely be back during breakfast hours. The cocktails are awesome! Funny we came for breakfast and ended up getting cocktails and a burger. I absolutely love the way they cut the fries so fun and so thick. The fries are nice and fluffy and for being fried food they feel light which is always really nice. The burger was so flavorful! Definitely recommend getting extra pickles. I do believe they are made in house! Being gluten-free I was a little nervous about the gluten-free bun because this can definitely be a hit or miss. Sometimes it's just better to get the burger wrapped in lettuce. I did not feel that way. The gluten-free bun was actually really good! I love that there are so many gluten-free options at this place , and I cannot wait to come back! read more

The only positive note about this spot is the vibes and aesthetics of the patio. As well as making space for the furry friends. Everything else about this place is absolutely wild...and not in a good way. When we sat down we put in for two drinks. After 15 minutes, we ordered our food. The first odd experience was that appetizer came out before drinks. When the drinks did arrive, they were very watered down to the point that we questioned if there was alcohol in them. The server did apologize for how long it took to get the drinks. When food arrived, the server announced one of the dishes but didn't name the other. She put the food down quickly and was off. There was no opportunity to ask what the dish was. After we looked at the menu, we realized that she had switched it with a different item on the menu. The item that I received was not what I had ordered. We waited and waited for the server to come back to correct the mistake but hunger set in. 35 minutes the server comes over to ask how everything is and that's when I explained the mistake. This is when the experience becomes the wildest...instead of owning their mistake. The server and manger told me it was my fault I didn't get what I ordered because I had eaten half of the meal. INSANE. The only reason half was eaten was because my husband gave me half his meal because I couldn't eat what I was served. Nor could I even talk to a server to correct the mistake. As a former server and barista, this was an absolutely terrible experience for customer service, food and drinks. read more

Food, coffee and service are excellent. I had the Barbacoa Benedict, possibly the best eggs Benedict I've ever had. Definitely not an inexpensive diner, but the food is top-quality. Visiting from Las Vegas and the place definitely has a cool vibe. read more

Wondering what took us so long to hit up Kickstand... For years we've passed by this amazing place, on our way to and from other spots in HR. Today we finally stopped in for lunch and are so glad we did. The Owner greeted us and was welcoming and we immediately felt at home. The decor and aesthetic is so Hood River and we loved all of the personal touches. Two of us ordered their burger and one of us had an avocado poke. Two of us also had their Bacon Bloody Mary and it was amazing. The burgers were fresh and delicious. Not greasy, at all and super tasty. The tuna avocado poke was also well received. I think the thing that hit home most was the hospitality and we can't wait to come back for breakfast and will visit again when we are in the Hood! Thank you! read more

My husband and I will drive from Central Oregon just for Kickstand. It's that good. We crave it on the reg! Great vibes, service, + killer food options. The owners are always very friendly. I love all of the details they have focused on here. (especially the field guide books; really cool touch you all, well done ) Such a good local spot to come to. Well managed, ran and loved no doubt. Thanks to everyone here for always making it such a great experience when visiting! read more

Overall: This place offers a little bit of everything. Coffee? They've got it! Beer, wine, cocktails, ciders? Got it all. Breakfast menu? Yes! Lunch and dinner? Of course! Burritos? Tostadas? Sandwiches? Burgers? Naan Pizza? Poke? A little bit of an identity crisis? I think so. Ambiance: Indoor and outdoor seating. Connected to Evo repair shop. Kind of cold, but fun decorations and there's nothing like sitting between a cocktail bar and a coffee bar. Food: They have a breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu. When we got there it was their lunch menu. Naughty Naan pizza: Tikka Masala is the theme for this pizza. We got it with chicken and it was pretty good. It was odd biting into a pizza and tasting curry flavors, but it worked. Buttermilk Fried Chicken: Comes with two giant pieces of chicken that are friend and topped with sweet honey. Comes with vinegar pickles and fries. Absolutely loved this dish and would recommend. The chicken was crispy, the pickles were crispy. And it comes with their garlic aioli, which was a banger. Very good. Bacon Jam Burger: The combination of flavors for this burger worked well. The smoked bacon with the onion jam, goat cheese and garlic aioli was added a variety of depth of flavors. They all worked well together. The beef itself was also cooked perfect. Would recommend. read more

Kickstand came highly recommended to us by several people, so we thought it would be a great place to grab breakfast after our morning hike. The atmosphere is cute and casual, lots of places to sit both indoor and outdoor, and the ordering process was quick and easy. I was excited because breakfast on a Saturday can sometimes be quite hectic. Service was fast, and the people were fine... efficient. Now onto the food -- my husband ordered the Ricky Bobby, and I got the Breakfast Burrito with chorizo. The presentation was promising, but we were astonished that both of our meals had absolutely 0 flavor. The chorizo gravy on his dish didn't even seem to have salt on it, and the fried chicken had absolutely no flavor! It was mind boggling... My breakfast burrito was filled to the brim with flavorless rice, no pico, no beans, no cheese, no potatoes, just some eggs and the smallest amount of the driest, flavorless chorizo... truly astonished! Thank god for the green salsa the burrito came with, but we both didn't even finish half of our meals. For $50 for 2 people to have breakfast and a coffee... we will not be giving it a second chance. And i'm seriously so confused as to why people are obsessed with this place. Maybe we came on an off day? No clue. I would expect so much more for a place that does Mexican breakfast! Where is the flavor! Ah! read more

Stopped at this place on the way home because it looked really tasty. We had the burger and the chicken tacos. The place is super cute with a big bar and a big coffee drink selection and a neat bike shop right next door. The patio is huge and has heating. It was clean and the meals tasted really good; the cook cares about what they're putting in, and how it looks. I'd definitely come back! read more

Food is delicious. I got the crispy tofu tacos and they were so good. My boyfriend got the $20 burrito and he loved it. Ambience is nice and service is great. read more

After a thoroughly good time shredding the local brown pow, we were hungry for some apres before hitting the road. We found KickStand on Yelp and decided it was the one. We ended up getting take out so that we could do some driving in the remaining daylight. We ordered: Kickstand Cheeseburger - SP Provisions beef, cheddar cheese, housemade pickles, pickled red onion, garlic aioli, mixed greens, poppy seed bun & fries House Garden Salad - organic mixed greens, pickled carrot & daikon, pickled red onion, cucumber, house vinaigrette Kid's Fried Chicken Plate - crispy fried organic chicken & fries I love a good fried chicken, and theirs is tender, juicy and flavorful. My second favorite was the house garden salad. I'm biased towards colorful salads full of crunchy veggies. When in doubt, order the burger! We visited during the pandemic, so important things to mention are: Outdoor seating Take-out bag is stapled shut for food safety/security Clean restrooms Drinking water available while we waited for our food Looking forward to dining in and enjoying some beers next time we're in Hood River! read more

Came here for lunch while on a daytrip. They have a nice outdoor patio and a small lot and overflow parking at the park next door. We got the tuna tostada which had tons of fish and fresh with a nice sauce. I got the fish and chips which was... Unseasoned. I really depended on the sauce that came with it. But it was crunchy and decently sized and the curly fries were fresh too. read more

I didn't check the yelp reviews before I got here but I went to "Yelp" about this place and you guys nailed it five stars all the way!! I don't need to type much, but I completely agree with the other yelpers, and I found out when we came here that the owners of this place are very involved with the community which makes this place even more awesome! The menu is very good. We did not have any alcohol. We stopped in for coffee to go and then decided to chow down. Check out my pictures. Jennifer our server was lovely read more

Another great dinner at KickStand! I went for the regular chicken sandwich, and it was delicious! A big, perfectly crispy and juicy fillet on a fluffy poppyseed bun. Love the chipotle aioli on the sandwich. Fries were hot and the right level of crispy! Also enjoyed the elderberry rose kombucha on tap. Happy to have yet another great meal here! read more

My three positives and a negative because the world needs more positivity: + I appreciated the unique flavors on the menu. I enjoyed my tikka chicken sandwich. Hubby his quinoa veggie burger. The fries that came with were hot and had a delightful twist shape + hubby gave two enthusiastic thumbs up to the local beer + dogs, dogs, dogs. The place was busy with a small band on the patio. Best of all, everywhere were friendly dogs happy to have a pat - service was just ok. Ordering at the bar was straightforward except I had to get my own utensils and a refill read more

Omg ... so good! In Hood River for a special occasion and the 2 places we wanted to eat dinner ahead of Kickstand we're closed on Sunday's. So we settled on Kickstand. And man we were lucky. So good! While the buns and salad were very good, the fried chicken hit the spot for me. So crunchy. And flavorful. And the honey! Oh my. I filled myself while there, but my mouth is watering thinking back to their chicken! It was a hot day but the patio had plenty of space. And our server was super friendly. 10/10 experience! Oh yea ... the drinks hit the spot as well. read more

My wife, Daughter, and I were very impressed by this place! The food was absolutely delicious! My daughter and I had the kickstand cheeseburger with bacon and my wife had the buttermilk fried Chicken. All of our plates were properly cooked and well prepared with great presentation! The service is great and friendly. A bit different as you walk in grab a menu sit down to decide what you want. Get up go to the counter order what you want. pretty simple. And then they bring it to you. Plenty of seating indoors or outdoors with a clean environment. Highly recommended after a long hike, bike ride, mountain biking or just a day out with love ones enjoying the afternoon outdoors. This place is great! read more

We stopped for a quick bite and an and we're super impressed with the speed and quality of the food. What was the best thing? Hard to say between a crispy chicken sandwich, poke, and mole fries that were all delicious. Can talk about their fries? They were the most innovative fries in we've seen, part steak fry and part curly fry. On our list of places to visit next time we pass through. read more

We walked to this off the beaten path Hood River gem following a leisurely day of pub crawling through town. We were not disappointed. We sat outside and enjoyed the great ambiance and cool breeze. All of our food was excellent and the selection of beer and wine was wonderful. Our server Sierra was knowledgeable and helpful with dining selections as well as the surrounding area. We will certainly return next time we are in town. Just a few blocks west of the Oak Street Hotel! read more

This place is such a gem! We were in town for just a night and were looking for a simple but tasty meal. We were drawn in by the menu posted online and it lived up (and surpassed) our expectations! Outdoor seating was full, but we snagged a table right by the door. Everything was airy and the tables were reasonably spaced out, so we didn't feel particularly close to anyone else. I loved the vibe of the place and the stylized maps on the walls of local items of note. We both ended up ordering the maitake shroom sandwich and it was one of the best things I've ever eaten. Perfectly fried local mushrooms with Duke's mayo? Honestly, do you need anything else? The slaw, pickles, and fries were also fantastic. I had a cider with mine and it paired well. Service was also great, the server was really familiar with the menu and made great suggestions. She was also attentive and friendly. We loved Hood River, and will definitely come back here next time we're in town! read more

The food and drinks are tasty. Table service would take this place to the next level and make it more personable

Had a great meal post windsurfing here. The inside was very chill but cozy. Bar seats were great and the person working was very helpful and super good at making drinks! Even their non-alcoholic drinks were good. The Take it Off was refreshing with great hibiscus and ginger taste. Food menu may look limited but that's how they do everything so well. The Ahi Tuna Tostadas were fresh and crispy. Love the little pieces of jalapenos on top. Bison Burger was cooked perfectly, lovely sauce, and delicious buns. Crispy, pillowy fries as well. The Veggies & Grains was also a great mix of being nutritious and yummy. Gotta love fresh roasted veggies, topped with goat cheese, dates, and a poached egg. Totally would come back, seems like they have rotating menus too! read more

A couple free parking spots in the front or across the street. We came right at opening and glad we did as a lot of groups came immediately after us to grab some of the outdoor tables on a weekend. They are open for indoor and outdoor dining but the indoor space is ventilated with all doors open. The outdoor tables do have a fire pit so you can enjoy some sun if it's a little windy. Seating is first come first serve as long as there's a green card on the table to let you know that it's clean. _______________________ After a hike we ended up trying the two items below: + Crispy Bird Sandwich ($15.5) - Worth it! Nice thick piece of chicken with a crispy coating. The toasted brioche is a nice touch and then the sauce and slaw adds a nice contrast to the saltiness of the chicken. Solid sandwich to eat alone but good enough to share between two people with another entree. + Hangover Bowl ($17) - Thin slices of shortrib on a bed of grits. The grits were good having the chilies and poached egg added some nice heat and savoryness to the meal. I thought this was good but for $17 I would have expected some more protein and thicker asparagus. Overall solid dish to try but might opt for other items next time. _______________________ Staff here is super friendly! Quick to make recommendations and give their must haves. We even asked for a side of grits to try them as they were not on the menu and they accommodated us with giving us a side. THANK YOU! read more

While the name says coffee, this place is so much more! This hidden gem in Mt. Hood Village serves some of the best food that I've had in a long time! If you are in a Hood River for the day or the weekend, definitely stop here for some food that will make your tastebuds sing! I envy the locals who can frequent Kickstand frequently. Depending on when you are there, the menu may have an Asian flair or Cajun or Hawaiian or... The Chefs enjoy what they do and create menus based on what is in season so there is always something new. There are always a variety of offerings so everyone can find something that appeals to them, including delicious vegetarian options that meat lovers would love. Whether you opt for a burger & fries or braised beef short ribs or shrimp & grits, you will be satisfied and then some. If the kimchi fried rice is on the menu, get it! It is A-mazing! Even if you don't want this as your full meal, order it for the table to share. The flavors are wonderful! The atmosphere is super casual with a fabulous outdoor patio that often includes live music, but always a cool playlist for background music. Cocktails, beer, cider and wine is available. Oh, and coffee! The waitstaff is friendly and efficient, warm and welcoming. helpful without being intrusive. Just the right amount of checking in with you as you enjoy your meal and the atmosphere. On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays they open at 11:00 and have some outstanding brunch offerings. The other days they open at 3:30 and stay open until 9:30 so plan your visit accordingly. They may be a hidden gem, but the secret is out and it's often crowded so making a reservation would be a good idea. Kickstand Coffee & Kitchen is one more reason that Hood River is my Happy Place. As if I needed another reason! read more

Dogs inside barking and jumping which violates Oregon statute OAR 333-150-0000, Chapter 6-501.115. Coffee was marginal, food was fine. As long as you don't mind dining next to large, loud dogs jumping around. Dogs were INSIDE the restaurant longer than it took for us to order & eat our meal. Maybe you'll like it if you like unruly pets (not service animals) and restaurants that violate Oregon code. People working there were nice, service was ok. Overall, a disappointing experience. read more
