Crosscut Espresso & Deli — Restaurant in Hood River

This place is amazing, a treasure trove of goodness. While traveling full time around the US, it can be tricky to find gems like this.

First off, what initially drew me here was all of the bad reviews about staff not wearing masks, anti-mask signs etc. YES! These are my people ;)

Upon entering, seeing doTERRA essential oils. Mmmhmm, I happen to be wearing their deodorant as we speak.

Scriptures and good life enriching books scattered. I want to bring home a book or 2, maybe they're open to an exchange??

The gals behind the counter were so pleasant and kind, truly wonderful service.

The coffee, delicious. The breakfast sandwich, fantastic.

I can't find anything to complain about, sooo just get yourself there already!! Wish we were in the area longer, I'd love to come back.

Thanks for being YOU, doing things YOUR WAY according to what you believe (and deeply know is right!), and shining so much love and light into your small charming...

Great little coffee shop. Had a mocha and chatted with a good friend after a nice ride up the gorge. Would recommend this place to anyone, especially those with children. They have a little area set up for the little ones. I'd give it a five, but I tend to cross compare coffee shops against Starbucks. This place had better coffee, and the staff was nice and attentive, but could learn a thing or two about making a customer feel welcome to return. Starbucks trains their employees to ask your name, make a connection with a question, and hey, even sometimes you can't tell if they're just fluffing you. Anyway, I have nothing but good things to say...

I love biscuits and gravy, and the biscuits and gravy here is legitimately some of THE BEST I have EVER had. The biscuits are fluffy and have a delightful touch of sweetness. The gravy features house made sausage. The pairing is fantastic. I got it with a couple over medium eggs on top (slightly overdone, but forgivable).

Ended up paying more than I anticipated, but that probably has more to do with me being cheap, and less to do with the value of the food/service.

Cozy atmosphere and delicious coffee round out the experience. Perfect breakfast after a brisk night camping in the nearby...
