Broder Øst

Absolutely loved this place. They're open early on the weekends, which is nice for us early risers! Staff was wonderful to meet and I really enjoyed my meal there. I had a Danish Mary, coffee, and the Swedish breakfast. All wonderful! I didn't love the aquavit in the Danish Mary, but that's my own fault. He warned me it has a little star anise in it (which I don't like) but I thought I'd try it anyway. I'll definitely get the drink again just without aquavit in it. I'll be back probably every weekend I'm here.

Broder Øst is an absolute treat. The atmosphere was charming and modern. The staff jovial and well humored with an excellent knowledge of the food served. The food itself was divine... like nothing I've ever had before.

Nice outdoor seating in downtown Hood River. Indoor seating as well, but definitely enjoy the sidewalk if the weather allows. Went with a friend and received excellent service, timely service, tasty water and a great meal. The smoked trout lefse was wonderful. Portions are medium. Definitely eating light, but it is definitely worth it for a good Swedish meal.

We were all excited to eat here for different reasons. My husband, who's of Swedish ancestry, was hoping to get gravlax. He did, and was very happy. My kids wanted the meatballs: having been raised on the Ikea ones, they too we're after some nostalgic taste. These meatballs we're divine! They were juicy, bit crumbly, or rubbery. The sherry cream was an elevated and decadent sauce. Kids were happy! I just wanted something a little unusual. The salmon cakes with pickled veggies and homemade tartar sauce, we're just what I wanted.
Lastly, Id like to add that the service was good. Friendly and attentive, and very on point with the covid-19 protocols.

Ten out of ten. Fiancée loved her scramble and the Swedish breakfast bord was phenomenal! The egg was to DIE for. Staff was incredibly kind and food came out fast. Cannot wait to come back.

Some of the best brunch food we have ever had and our kids agreed. Don’t be put off by the menu- we ordered about one of everything and it was all excellent. Pricey but worth it. Upon arrival the hostess estimated a 30 minute wait but it was over an hour before being seated. However it gave us time to do some shopping in downtown Hood River. We had to ask for our drinks a couple of times (excellent mimosas and hot chocolate) but they were so busy and otherwise friendly service so we didn’t think a thing of it. We were just passing/traveling through but will be back!

Incredible food and really enjoyed the outdoor covered patio. Can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu.

One of my favorite brunch places in hood river, food was phenomenal. Fresh & flavorful. Hit the cravings. Husband had the breakfast egg sandwich and I had Lefse (Norwegian potato crepes) + added the Lingonberry. So good.

Borders here in hood river has always had excellent food! Hearty meals and drink and a cozy little place to eat and enjoy! The only reason I give it 4 / 5 is due to the service. It feels like you are being given the cold shoulder by a few of the waitresses. Like you are just a number and not a person. Love it all otherwise!

I didn't know this place existed until today, and being one to try new places I decided to try it. I didn't know what to expect when I went in, I ordered the meatballs and it was the most flavorful lunch I have had in a long time! I will definitely be coming back quite a bit!
