I didn't get photos of our starters, but they were great - try the fermented vegetables. The goat cheese and chutney with focaccia was excellent, the cheese wasn't overly "goaty". We had the rockfish (pictured), and I really liked the light crispy outside of the fish and the nice tapenade. Not sure I remember the name of the desert, but whatever it was...we thought it was going to be too much for 2 people, but we ended up licking the plate clean. Wow. Service was very friendly and helpful - they had good recommendations too. A delightful evening was had by all. We'll be back for an encore.

Never had a refill offered the entire time there nor did anyone around us. We got up to pay for drinks and leave that's food when our food came out and hour later.

The meat was dry and cold, the sandwich had mayo even though the waitress told us it did not also the menu didn't show mayo in the ingredient list. The Mac and cheese was old mush looked like it was a week old. The waitress was on her phone and the cook just looked like he had nothing to do. Won't ever go back there.

So, tonight, after a 10 hour shift on a Sunday, I catch…read moreup to a birthday party in progress for my youngest girl's day care provider, who just turned 60. I'm over an hour late. Everyone else is already finishing up their drinks and meals. Wanting just one drink after a long day, I head to the bar! My wife asks me to get her one too. Here's where it gets bizarre. Kickstand has a bar...well, it looks like a bar. But what I found out is that it's just for looks because it doesn't act like a bar. I thought ordering two cocktails and paying for my drinks would be easy, like it is at every bar in town. But the bartender, I mean employee standing behind a bar, asked if I was with the large group. I stated, "yes, I was." Then she proceeded to tell me that the drinks would be on someone's tab. But I showed up late...I don't know what's happening. I don't know who's paying for the "tab". I just wanted to buy two drinks and walk away. But that wasn't allowed at Kickstand. Then another employee walks up and attempts to take my drink order. Super confused, I tell her the employee standing behind the bar just took my drink order. And then we proceeded down the tab conversation again. The second employee said because "we" were a party of 8 or more, I couldn't pay for my own drinks and I they would have to put it on the party's tab. But again, I don't know who owns the tab. If it was the woman having the birthday, I didn't want to add to her bill...on her birthday. Then they suggested I "could just Venmo" the party girl. No! I want to just order two drinks and have Kickstand take my money. Why wouldn't they just take my money?! The place was dead tonight, other than the 5 or so small daycarel families, sitting at their own tables, that made up the "party". I canceled my drink order and walked away out of protest and principal. When asked if I was with the big party, I should have said no I guess. Lesson leaned for next time, if there is a next time. Kickstand, you're so difficult and frustrating!!

He had no personality, no polite comment or conversation and even seemed annoyed when asked how his day was going. I asked to substitute the feta cheese with a different cheese offered on the menu and his initial response was we can't do that. He then asked if I had an allergy which I did not but expressed feta was a cheese not to my liking. He asked me what I would want if my request was unable to be met and I expressed being unsure. As he walked away my thought was did they pre make the salads? He did return saying they are able to change the cheeses. The cherry salad was amazing the combination of flavors switching out the feta with a smoked Gouda I believe even added to the overall salad. I added the chicken to my salad and was completely surprised that the chicken was dark meat which was not noted. I have never been given dark meat when adding chicken it has always been white meat (chicken breast). I won't have added the chicken had I known this as I don't enjoy dark meat. However the salad was good the cherries, picked onions candied pistachios and vinaigrette was light and refreshing. The French fries were fabulous - fresh cut, crispy, salty with a tasty aioli sauce. They were finger licking good.

I ate at this restaurant twice while staying at the hotel in March and April, once for dinner and…read moreonce for breakfast. Both meals were great. Service was prompt, and the restaurant atmosphere is very pleasant. It's kind of funny because you'll have people in suits having a business meeting over dinner, and other regular hotel guests just dining casually in t-shirts and jeans. On both occasions, I was dining with another family member. When we were there for dinner, we were having a really hard time deciding what to order, and our server let us know that there was a 2-for deal going on for some of the pastas. Each of us had been considering a pasta, so that solved that problem! Both were delicious, and we had leftovers to take home. When we were there for breakfast, I was feeling adventurous and ordered the lox and bagel, which I've only had a very basic version of one other time. It was soooo good, and very filling. Several other options on the breakfast menu also sounded really good, but I'm glad I went with this for the experience. I'd definitely eat here again if/when I stay in the hotel again. Since there's no free breakfast offered by the hotel, they give you vouchers for the restaurant, so you can get a pretty good deal on a meal.

Definitely the standout of the table for me. Service was friendly and expedient, which I always appreciate in the morning when everyone is trying to get caffeinated and out the door. My companions ordered the protein bowl, which was a hearty mix of grains and grilled vegetables with your choice of tofu or egg. It leaned a little bland flavor-wise, but it did exactly what it needed to do: provided a filling, healthy base for a full day of activity in Hood River. Not every dish was a knockout, but overall it was a very solid breakfast spot with fair pricing at about $18 per dish.

The food was delicious; each of us ordered something different and everyone was very happy with their meal. I got the salmon fish and chips, and it was SO good. I'm so used to fish and chips being made with cod or other white fish, so this was a fun change. Despite being a pub, this place is family-friendly. The kid's menu was perfect for my little nephew, and my sister was very pleased with the quality of his burger meat and the fact that you can sub fries for veggie sticks for kiddos. You don't see that sort of thing very often. We had a great time!
