What a little gem! Very lovely atmosphere, incredibly friendly staff and absolutely delicious food. Came for breakfast and got Lost Eggs and the hash. Drip coffee was also good--they even warm the cream for you. Absolutely delightful

Was recommended this place by a local. We walked in on a Saturday afternoon and waited about 35 mins for a table to be ready. We ordered the Stockholm hotdog and Swedish meatballs with added smashed potatoes. The food was exciting and everything was great (particularly the hotdog and potatoes). Service staff was friendly and attentive but they lost a star because we waited 35 mins to be served and had to ask where our food was. Overall, delicious food and nice ambiance. I'd visit again to try some of their other items.

We stopped in for dinner and again for breakfast. The burger was good and I really liked the pickled onions and beat. I appreciated they had gluten free toast for the burger, but the it seemed like the corners were dry and large... I didn't really eat much of the toast. The open faced breakfast sandwich was really good. The bread was really think and made it a satisfying meal. Breakfast the next day was good too. Porridge was pretty good, but again I really liked the baked eggs.
All the staff were friendly and helpful.

Excellent Norwegian food in Hood River. Great breakfast and lunch menu nestled downtown. Had the Lefse with smoked trout and I was not disappointed. Everything was fresh and well prepared

Very good brunch spot! I got the Swedish hash w braised beef short ribs and ham and it was pretty good, but my husband got the lamb burger and it was phenomenal! We also ordered a side of the crispy smashed potatoes and they were the best part of the meal. The service was really good and the coffee was really nice (specifically the foam on my husbands cappuccino.)

Delicious food! Everything was fantastic. This was my first time eating Scandinavian food and I really enjoyed it. Our waitress Rachel was awesome and she constantly checked on us. Another plus is that the restaurant is dog friendly and they let us sit in the patio with our 2 pups.

Love this place. Delicious espresso and Scandinavian foods. Only been for breakfast a few times but it’s quickly becoming a regular stop. The service is top notch and the food is just so good.

Cute space in the Hood River Hotel featuring Scandinavian breakfast and lunch (both available during business hours) and creative cocktails and warm you up drinks. This creative menu will not leave you feeling heavy and tired. Fresh, clean Viking staples will keep you energized and satisfied. We created quite a feast by adding sides to already diverse choices. This is a must for us every visit to Hood River. There’s a covered patio area that’s dog-friendly too. Also, the entire eclectic eatery is people friendly. Staff are delightful and, in our case, extremely patient as my companion is an indecisive orderer!

So good! I really loved the mushroom breakfast sandwich. The wild mushrooms had great flavor, the eggs were perfectly cooked with jammy yolks, and hearty toast. I will definitely order this again.

He loved his baked eggs and Seasonal Fritters. I believe the fritters were full of blueberry compote this day... and delicious.

Our friend loved the Danish pancakes, which reminded her of Italian doughnuts. Both dipping sauces paired perfectly. She enjoyed the porridge, but it wasn't her favorite. She found the texture interesting because it was thicker than expected, almost like a bread pudding.

Excellent place to eat breakfast. Stopped here to celebrate my friends Birthday and visit the spring flowers nearby at Dalles Ranch. Get here early and avoid the wait. Loved the Unnipurro (traditional Finnish style oven porridge), Danish pancakes, Dark Hot Chocolate and Chai Tea Latte. You won’t be disappointed at Broder Øst.

Came here for breakfast on Monday 8/9. All I can say is WOW! Definitely check this place out. It's located right in downtown Hood River. The menu was an amazing and unique assortment of Scandinavian dishes that I haven't seen offered before at other European restaurants. It was really hard to pick what to eat and we'll definitely be back so we can try other things on the menu.

I ordered the fritters, which change seasonally. This time the seasonal flavor was huckleberry which if you've lived in the Pacific northwest for at least one summer you know how special and delicious they are! It came with two baked eggs, three fritters with ricotta and maple syrup, and a chicken sausage patty - I also ordered an extra side of toast. Everything was cooked perfectly! The sausage patty was not what I expected but was so much better! It reminded me of the texture of a crab cake and was served with grain mustard.

My husband got the open faced breakfast sandwich and opted for the mushroom option. I definitely had food envy and wow - they did not skimp on the mushrooms at all! We both ordered an Americano which was brought out with an adorable little coffee spoons and a sugar cube. If you request cream to come on the side it arrives steamed in a little carafe - what an unexpected touch!

We will definitely be back and bring friends and family who visit. My mom grew up in Sweden so I can't wait to share this find with her.

We normally have an amazing time at this establishment. Our family loves the food and we typically really enjoy the staff but for some reason today our server was exceptionally short and impatient, seemingly only with our table. I understand that it is a difficult season for most but this behavior was only directed towards us as we witnessed jovial interactions with others. She was acting both as the hostess and a server. It was difficult to get her attention so after several tries my other half had to reach out to another server for our box and the final check. We are bummed out by the negative experience, I would have addressed this directly but my husband was ready to leave.

We’ve visited this restaurant twice now… hands down, this is my favorite place to eat out. The craftsmanship, the quality, the traditional respect, and atmosphere should all be award winning.

The first time, absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the traditional smørrebrød, Aqubeta cocktail, and breakfast bord. *The danish rye from White Salmon Bakery was a showstopper addition to these breakfasts*
The second time around, we went for the aebleskivers which were undoubtedly amazing - so light & fluffy - and lived up to the reputation from reviews. (The lingonberry jam & lemon curd pairing truly was the icing on the cake with these bad boys.)

Not sure this place will ever disappoint and I look forward to visiting again and again and AGAIN!

Fabulous quaint Nordic Cafe for breakfast or lunch. I recommend the Glavlax on Skagen Shrimp Salad. It comes on a thick slice of Seeded Rye from WHITE SALMON BAKING COMPANY which was a hearty treat with butter and lingonberry jam.

Stopped by for Sunday Brunch. Food was phenomenal. Will absolutely be coming back next time I'm in the area. I had the Danish Pancakes and my husband had the Hash.

There was a wait for Sunday Brunch. We were able to walk around town though, and widdle away the time.

Only con was paying $4 for a glass of orange juice. That felt pretty ridiculous, especially as it wasn't even fresh squeezed or anything.

They were able to make many menu options dairy free. I couldn’t have the Danish pancakes though. Options for vegans, vegetarians and gluten intolerant as well. Friendly yet very busy, a difficult combo that they pull off well. Adorable presentation 👌🏼

Delicious food and wonderful service! We had an open-faced breakfast sandwich and a trout hash with orange juice and a cocktail. I didn't like my cocktail, but I can only assume that's because I don't like aperol so that was my mistake lol

Simply divine.

Prompt service even when short staffed and super busy on a Friday morning. Seated on the patio after a 25 min wait during a very busy brunch hour.

I am not exaggerating when I say - I place a small bit of my dish in my mouth and teared up from how happy and delicious the bite was. I had the Lefse, side of smoked gravlax, and grapefruit juice. Thank you so much for the professional service, attention to detail, and absolutely the most wonderful brunch meal I have ever experienced.

Food was great. Restaurant was cute. Loved the pancakes and the sauces. My husband liked his porridge and hash. Service was good and the food was up fairly fast.

Bloody Mary! Aquavit dill is amazing. Great food as always. Busy for summer Monday brunch, but not too long wait. Neat spot at historic hood river hotel. Attentive & great service. Lamb burger!
