The popular Broder restaurant group in Portland, Ore., spread its Scandinavian-style sensibility to the charming town of Hood River, about 45 minutes east of Portland along the scenic Columbia River Gorge.
Broder Ost exudes Scandinavian country charm. The restaurant is located just off the lobby of the historic Hood River Hotel in downtown Hood River. The restaurant is warm and cozy on rainy days, and bright and welcoming on sunny ones.
It’s the ideal spot to decamp for breakfast or lunch, with options that span Scandinavia: Norwegian lefse (potato pancakes), Danish pancakes (aebelskiver), Swedish hash, smoked fishes, Swedish meatballs and much more.
Then, on the drinks side, cocktails involve favorite Scandinavian spirits and flavors, with plenty of herbs and aquavit at the heart of the offerings.
Service is attentive and friendly, the coffee is appropriately strong and the food is exceptional — it’s everything fans of the Broder restaurants have come to expect, everything you want out of Scandinavian food and the best place to launch a day of adventures in the Gorge.
