Remedy Café

"Best Juice in town. Always friendly staff. It's hard to order when I'm here because everything is so good so I usually just go with the same thing. The acai bowls are good and also anything here is great. I always get a Remedy Juice or Pronic Pulse juice. Always fast service and great food. Best spot in downtown."

"Hood River resident who has frequented this restaurant over the years. Simply the best in Hood River, at least if you are looking for healthy food and drinks with top-quality ingredients and customer service. Highly recommend! The Glory Bowl and Hood River Bowl (with added chicken) are personal breakfast/lunch favorites. And the Berry Smoothy and Chunky Monkey are yummy snacks you might enjoy. Many of their juices are blended with fresh fruit and vegetables on the spot."

"I have visited Remedy many times during my almost 10 years living in the Gorge. I’ve always really enjoyed their juices and smoothies and have done their juice cleanses several times. I wanted to leave a review though because they seem to have new staff in the last several months and they have just been absolutely amazing. I have an appt in a neighboring building every Monday and one of my new fave traditions afterwards is stopping by and getting an Açaí Protein Sport Bowl. KATIE is amazing, and she always remembers me and she’s so positive and kind and enthusiastic! I was having a conversation with the person I have my Monday appts with and she also said she really loved the service Katie provides—she always remembers her name and her order also! Katie brightens my Mondays—and the açaí protein sport bowl is my fave!"

"The juices and smoothies are outstanding here. I love the cleanses. I just ordered a custom three day cleanse. The best part is they use glass jars. I just had the golden milk. They make their own golden paste as well as homemade coconut milk and almond milk. If you’re looking for healthy food in Hood River Oregon this is your spot. Super friendly, staff and knowledgeable owner."

"I have never written reviews for any restaurant before, but I had such a negative experience at Remedy Café today that I felt strongly enough to warn others about it. We researched some restaurants to visit during a day trip to Hood River and saw that Remedy Café was well-reviewed. But we had a terrible experience when we actually visited it today. First off, when we asked about the egg bowl and whether it was gluten free or not (it was not labeled on the menu), the woman at the cash register didn’t know. She went to ask her colleague and he said “uh, I think so”. We asked again to confirm whether there were any ingredients that contained gluten, and he glanced at the recipe posted on the wall and said, again, “yeah, I think so”. When you call yourself a health food restaurant, HOW can you NOT know what allergens your dishes contain?? It’s fine if a dish contains gluten, but shouldn’t your staff be trained to know how to accommodate—or at least answer questions about—dietary restrictions? We should have left the restaurant at that moment, because “I think so” is not very reassuring that you won’t get sick from eating a dish you thought was safe. Anyways, we ordered the egg bowl and the Buddha bowl and took a seat. We watched as they prepared the egg bowl and took a handful of bacon shreds from a bag—as in, a shelf stable, processed bag of bacon bits that you’d get at a grocery store—and add that to the bowl. We then had to inquire about the ingredients in the bacon bits to make sure there weren’t any allergens in THAT ingredient. Also, what kind of health food restaurant uses processed, dried bacon? How is that healthy and clean eating? That moment should’ve been our second sign to just leave, but we had paid for our food and decided to wait. When our food did arrive, it was a massive disappointment. These bowls are TINY, and cost $15 each. And not only are they tiny, the ingredients are, again, not high quality or healthy. The cheese is literally shredded cheese from a bag—not even melted. The avocado chunks in the Buddha bowl weren’t even ripe! They were so firm I just didn’t even eat them. The black olives and salsa came from a can—again, highly processed, and not what I would consider to be healthy. The spinach in the egg bowl had some spoiled leaves in it, too. I couldn’t even bring myself to finish the Buddha bowl. Honestly, this was the worst $30 I have ever spent. But, lesson learned: save your hard-earned money and bring a picnic lunch when visiting Hood River. This establishment touts itself as a health food restaurant, but I am sorry to say that it doesn’t actually appear to be good for one’s health. This place is NOT a remedy—it’s a problem."
