Coming back from Portland to Bend, we stopped here on a slushy day after Christmas (12/26). It was welcoming and warm and we sat at the bar. Ordered 2 beers and a pizza, and took a growler home filled with the 10.3% ABV Stout I was served. Our ticket wasn't too bad and the pizza was good. They have a captive audience on the mountain there- as we were seated there must have been 35 or so people plowing in after us. I enjoyed the respite from drive and would return. read more

We showed up on a night when the brewery was understaffed and a group of 17 came in before us. The manager and sole waiter were running around frantically. Major kudos to them for getting the food out to us and others. The burgers and beer were solid - very satisfying after a day of hiking. (The restaurant was forced to close early due to their staffing situation and I think several customers left angry, but it appeared the waiters were doing their best in a difficult situation). read more

We were in the midst of our August anniversary trip and had taken a nice drive to visit Mt. Hood. As we had already had brunch a few hours earlier, we weren't exactly hungry, but wanted some beers. Mt. Hood Brewing looked promising, so we decided to stop by. It was also in the middle of a heat wave in OR, so we asked to sit outside. After my husband snagged our table, I brought our well-trained and well-behaved Siberian with us to the patio. There was another poorly-behaved dog, but my dog could not have cared any less, and it was far enough away that it didn't bother me too much either. The outdoor seating was minimal and basic, but did the job. Thankfully there was shade from the umbrellas. I put my dog in his "tuck" command under me as he is trained to do at restaurants, and proceeded to look at the menu. To be honest, the food looked pretty good, and also smelled pretty good, as I watched other patrons get their meals. However, we were still pretty stuffed, so we settled with a beer flight. The beers were out to our table pretty quickly, but after trying them, my husband and I came to the consensus that we expected more from the only brewing company in town. As another Yelper put it, the beers fell flat for us too. I was hoping there would be more/different notes to each beer, which is the whole point of sampling multiple, but they all seemed quite monotone. It started getting pretty warm underneath our umbrella, so we quickly wrapped up our beer flight and left. The view was gorgeous, and the location splendid (hence the 4 stars), and perhaps next time I'd be down to try one of their dishes, specifically the elkburger, but I was a little disappointed in the beer. I've been to plenty of breweries to enjoy beers there and also bought craft beers/growlers for home, so I'd like to say I'm decently versed in beer, but this missed the mark. read more

We were up on the mountain for the holiday weekend with our whole family. After a hike we were all hungry and headed into town for lunch. We were quickly seated which is great with a party of 13. My husband and i shared the french dip and onion rings which were both SO good!! The onion ring order was so large we ended up sharing with everyone in our group. Our waiter was great and made sure that we all had what we needed. My only suggestion is to let a large group know ahead of time that a 20% gratuity is automatically added to the bill. read more

Meh, but it's hot food in a remote area. I liked our table with a view, and the service was fine. The food was completely average, a letdown given the setting. I had a chocolate porter; it was fine, but it can't compete with Fort George's stouts. I've been here once or twice over the years, and the food is always forgettable, but it's a convenient stop after hiking, camping, or snowshoeing. I'll likely return in 3-5 years, but more for the people I'm with, the location, and atmosphere than for the food. read more

We stopped here after sledding on the mountain for lunch. The service was friendly, our server was accommodating and food came out quickly. I ordered an elk burger, which was delicious and tastes very similar to beef. The unexpected highlight of the meal was the steelhead salmon dip. Wow! Best salmon dip I've ever had; I wish I could get the recipe and make it at home! Also, since it's a brewery, I should mention that I ordered an amber ale and loved every drop of it. I'd love to see a red ale on their menu one of these days! read more

The service was horrible the food was just there and took forever. You have to ask him if he can fill up our waters. He was very awkward. This restaurant is over priced 16 dollars for a cosmo ridiculous. The bill for one person was $56. The male sever we had was very rude when we were paying to leave. Won't be coming back it's not worth my time or money. read more

The ambiance is cool, we sat near the fire place. Our server was great. The food is VERY overpriced (as are all the restaurants in this area). The poutine was not good and seemed microwaved. The bangers and mash sausage is bad, but the potatoes were good. Everything really needed salt. Nothing we got wowed in any way. It was one of the only places open late, so if you need something later, I'd go again, but that's really the only reason why. read more

Isaiah and John were awesome. Ran into some great people. Enjoyed the brews. S cL www

Delicious food - exactly what we were craving after 105 miles on the PCT. I was a little disappointed by the beer - the lager, oatmeal stout, and seasonal sour were good, but nothing to write home about. The bar was very cool - a chilled ice piece inset (not exactly sure what to call it) to keep your drinks cool. We went twice in one day, service at the bar was attentive without being overbearing, but our server for dinner seemed a little green. read more

Stopped through here while staying in Govy for the weekend. I had the Phlox tacos and the Ice Axe India Pale Ale. Both were pretty good! The real drink to have was the special Hazy though - talk about smooth! We had a group of 8 plus a baby and they were easily able to accommodate. The food came pretty quick too! I will say, it got busy toward the end and they took quite a while to bring the check... but that's the only negative! The rest was great! read more

Great food and service at Mt. Hood Brewing in Government Camp! We stopped by on the way to Timberline Lodge. Great Shrimp Tacos, Mac and Cheese. We sent complements to the chef! My margarita was.... a real drink! Everyone was warm and friendly, an excellent experience! We wanted to save money and have more menu options, on our trip to Mt. Hood, and this is a cool way to do that! read more

Place is pretty cool. Beer selection is limited but decent. Food is very pricey. But there is a 3% culinary charge on top of all order to give the kitchen. In other words they are putting more in the customer to pay wages then just taking the responsibility of paying them themselves as a business. It's already pricey. No reason for this. It's like a separate tax. So now on top of tipping , it's really expensive to enjoy simple pub food. Plus I had to get up twice. Ask for napkins and another rounds of drinks and our check . It's like we were forgotten about. But of course they want a tip and now a culinary tax read more

Meh. Fish tacos were okay, kids liked their meals alright, but the BBQ burger was sad. Small, thin patty that was way overdone, even tasted burnt in some parts. Huge chunks of red onion, and way too much sauce. Everything was overpriced for what you get. Service was slow and inattentive. Then they put an auto-tip on our family of 5 - with 3 kids under 7, and only waters for all of us (that they were slow to refill). We were pretty hungry after time spent outdoors, and really only chose this spot because there was enough room to park our truck and trailer. We won't be back. read more

The bacon apple burger changed my life. I think it might have been the best burger I've ever had. I will be dreaming of this burger for nights to come. The fries were extremely great as well and the service was great. We came as a party of three on a Friday night in January at around 5:45 and waited only about five minutes for our table. They have a great kids menu. read more

Mt Hood Brewing makes beers of all kinds and also a cider. The flagship is an IPA that's been in rotation since 1992. They're all pretty alright beers in that none are bad, but then none are terribly memorable, either. There is a dry cider which was a nice change of pace. I didn't bother with the food thanks to the pricing, but a $12 flight of beer with six tasters is a pretty good deal. However, I was told that I could order fewer tasters at a reduced cost. If 6 taster beers cost $12, then my 4 tasters should cost $8, yet I was charged $10. It's only $2 but it matters. Service was solid otherwise. Restrooms are downstairs and clean. There's a back patio and regular indoor table and bar seating. read more

We are staying in Government Camp and stopped here on the way in. My husband got a flight and praised every beer he tried. We split a shepherds pie and a Caesar salad. Both were excellent .The next day we came for an early dinner (happy hour deals on beer) and had the brewpub melt and a spinach strawberry salad. Again- amazingly flavorful. Friendly waitstaff and great service- once at the bar and once at a table. read more

I had the chili and pretzel bites and was Pleased. Although there was some event in town, they were able to get us in and take care of us with so many people in the place. I would go back for The chili. read more

Must stop for lunch or dinner after fun snow activities! Great selection of house-made beers on tap and good pricing is very reasonable for being in Government Camp. We a little before the diner rush time so we're seated right away with accommodations for a baby and a toddler. This place had such a cozy cabin vibe with the fireplace some vintage mountain illustration posters from their beer logos and local scenery. Our server was friendly and attentive to our needs (especially double checking menu items for our friend who is gluten free) The Cajun wings came out hot and crispy and they did not skimp on the serving size! My fish and chips came out hot and fresh and the tartar sauce was really good too. Not pictured but the pub burgers hit the spot and the gluten free pulled pork pizza was a hit too! Will come back here next time we return to this area for sure! read more

Burgers are abysmal. Honestly, the worst in the PNW. Prices should reflect the food. This is absolutely not the standard at this establishment. Maybe for the brew seekers? Dunno! Service swift, as there were really no customers, however, forgetfulness of order was apparent. Last time for me? Pizza was pretty poor as well. And really? This was my last visit. Not sorry! read more

Food was mediocre, one of the worst Margherita pizzas I've ever had, my kids kids meal was better. service was insanely slow, it was a bit busy but nothing crazy. and then they forgot about me or ignored me not sure which, but cleared my plates and it took another 20 minutes and me actually going up to flag down a server to get the check so I could leave.

Talk about nice little brewery up in the mountains of Mt Hood. Even better is it was located next to the hotel stayed at for 50k ultra race weekend! Portland area is known for lot of great micro brews. I would definitely put Mt Hood Brewery right up there with the best. The locations like mention right off main interstate on the way to Mt Hood. It looks like popular spot people going up mountain or post chill over beer from day skiing/snowboarding or whatever. The patio area really like might be small but the view. U feel like in ski resort town. Nice little wooden deck area and all around most part see lush trees healthy green, feel higher elevation, and so peaceful. I ended up getting one of the lighter beers. Tasty. Food since carb loading pre race for Pete Plunder pizza. It was meat lovers dream. The ham, sausage, and pepperoni. Pizza sauce nice pinch sweetness and kick. Really really good pizza. I would come back again. read more

Delicious beer battered fries. Onion/mushroom burger was over done with cheese, onions, mushrooms it hid the burnt areas mostly. Phlox tacos were so yummy and tasted homemade. The service was fabulous. Note: an automatic 3% tip is added to your bill for the kitchen staff. The hostess also a waiter had long greasy hair-unappealing especially when bringing condiments to the table touching his armpit. Restrooms are downstairs - not wheelchair accessible. Seated beside a swamp cooler, a tad noisy. Pizza wasn't available crust dough wasn't made for out 1:00 pm visit. read more

Let's start with the negatives, since that's how it started the minute we encountered this restaurant, for me anyway, other member of my group comes to Mt. Hood quite frequently, and stops here now & then. He can do his own review! 1. They do not allow dogs, ONLY service animals. It is summer and it's hot, we can't leave the poor pup in the car, the relatives are visiting (so are we) the area. 2. We either have to eat outside where it is sunny (there's an umbrella that keeps moving, when it's tilted). But we have children, and one adult with shingles and have had skin disease in the past, thus very VERY sensitive to the sun. 3. We can leave the son with a dog (and eat by themselves outside), and the rest of us, eat in the comfort of inside dining. 4. Option 3: We can bring it back to the cabin, but son and dog don't want to drive back in those bumpity-bumpity roads, plus he needs to get back home. But, our host decided on eating here, even with all that negatives, and I'm not adding, mostly that was just a whine! Let's add the positives: The BBQ Burger & Fries are both excellent! PLENTY of outside cold water, for the customers, on a hot day. Our 4 years old grandson, made many trips, accommodating us! The macaroni and cheese, I was told, was the best in town, that he ever had! My Phlox Taco, was a bit SPICY, but I could only eat one out of three, because I was saving the rest of my lunch the next day. (Food taste better the next day!) Note: I really didn't enjoy my taco, because there are spices here & there, that made me tear up. Will not be ordering it. Granddaughter had the Chicken Strips comes with Fries. I didn't ask how she liked it. The grandson FEASTED ON FRIES. He was more happy being our water boy! read more

The only good thing about this restaurant was the beer. We had a nice pale ale. The spinach dip was very hot on the outside and cool inside. The chips were OK, but it was not very tasty. My husband had a hamburger that was supposed to be special But was very dry, not hot and juicy. We had to return the french fries because they were cold and they brought us some freshly cooked ones. The meal was very pricey for what we got along with the poor quality. read more

Mt. Hood Brewing was a great place to stop after a day of traveling and exploring. It was a great homey feeling while feeling like we aren't in the Midwest anymore. The artwork was so unique and so cool to look at! The service was a 10/10. Our server was in top of it with getting us situated as soon as we sat down. Our group ordered a few different drinks and food options. They had a great selections of beers and mixed drinks. There is something for everyone in the group. They range from super light beers to double IPAs. The pretzels were absolute worth the money. They were soft and salty, with the cheese it was the perfect combination. For dinner, I ordered the burger. It was 10/10. It was the perfect amount of food and the fries were cooked to perfection! I did get the burger sauce on the side. I would recommend rather than getting it on the burger. You will want to dip the fries into it! Someone also ordered the gyro. They highly recommended as an entree. If you are traveling in the area, definitely stop by for a beer, app, or even dinner! read more

After a near-summit of Hood (long story), we were looking for some libation hydration. I was here with my partner that had never been on Hood. We were looking for a post-climb beer. And there weren't many options open at 11:00am. Timberline Lodge was inbetween breakfast and lunch. Skyway wouldn't open for another 2 hours... So...I have never had good experiences with Mt Hood Brewing, but I decided to give them a 5th chance. Well, the main server was very kind. That's about the only kind thing I can say. My main gripe comes from this beer they had, called "Strati-fied". It's a fresh hop beer made with wet Strata hops. It was gross. I say this as someone that can appreciate nearly any type of beer, and especially loves fresh hop beers. Not only that, Strata is one of my favorite hops to brew with, and I order pounds of it every year. This beer tasted rotten. It tasted like rotting fruit. It tasted like the smell you get in your refrigerator when something in the crisper drawer is getting fuzz on it. There was another guy at the bar that calmy and quietly brought up this beer to them (he was drinking a sampler/flight)...and mentioned, almost embarrassingly, that he homebrews sometimes. He said something like "I think something is a little off on the strati-fied, you might want to give it a taste." We then saw the bartender bring this up to the other bartender that then pulled a sample and said "this is exactly how it's supposed to taste". They then told him maybe he doesn't like Strata hops or that maybe he's never had a fresh hop beer. I was so triggered that I honestly didn't say anything to them because, I don't think I would be able to keep my cool after this sort of gaslighting. I feel like I was primed to like this beer. This beer seems like it was tailor-made specifically for me. The hops that many more traditional brewers don't like, because they perceive them as tasting like overripe fruit (Citra, Mosaic, Strata, Sabro, Medusa)...are some of my all-time favorites. In fact, I'd say 90% of what I brew uses those strains. (I have a pound of Strata hops in my freezer right now!) Furthermore, Onsite Brewing (up here in Anchorage) currently has a 100% Strata fresh hop on tap that is AMAZING! I think what frustrated me even more, on a personal level...is that I could not troubleshoot what it was that I was tasting...and what the root cause was. If this was my own beer, I would have NO IDEA how to correct this. The other homebrewer mentioned something about yeast but...I don't think so. There was no weird umami/smoky/plastic flavors going on here just...really bad, moldy, spoiled fruit flavors. I have never tasted this flavor in any beer I've ever had (I've had thousands of different beers). I think that's another reason I just didn't think it would be worth it to speak up about this beer, I had nothing constructive to say. Usually I would just describe their beers as being "safe and boring...but not offensive". But this one was like a sucker punch to the face. It was aggressively terrible. Mt Hood Brewing, if you read this, PLEASE investigate what is wrong with this beer and/or take it off tap. And also, please update your space. It looks like a generic airport restaurant. read more
