Trillium Cafe

I love this place! The new(ish) owners are awesome. Most of the time you will find one of them in there. Food is outstanding (meatloaf sandwich, mmm)! My second time in the bartender remembered my name. They have great live bands, awesome drinks (and unique jello shots!), and wonderful food. Thanks TRILLIUM for being dependable for wonderful service! more

most of the places we stopped at in Hood River only serve beer, I am not a beer drinker so we asked around for a place with good food and reasonable drink prices, we were referred by several people to Trillium. the service was great! the drinks were awesome and the blackened chicken was ACTUALLY blackened (with cajun spices-not charbroiled to a crisp-as most places seem to think blackened chicken is). the blue cheese on the chicken made the sandwich even more delectable. next trip back to Hood River we will definitely be stopping back by more

after going on a hike my husband and I wanted to go in to Hood River and go walk around a bit, and grab a bite to eat. We headed to Trillium Cafe, I like the historic building and the staff was super friendly when we walked in like they had always known us. My husband and I decided to share a salad and fish and chips which was recommended and ,after the first bite of my fish I wished I had gotten my own,,,IT WAS GOOD!!!! I enjoyed my experience very much and look forward on my next chow down there. Pros: good food, people, location. Cons: to far from Portland more

First of all, we don't have a county jail, we have a multi-county jail. Second, Trillium is back open with excellent food! And cheese doesn't come on a club, you gotta axe for it!. dumbass. Pros: Good food, staff Cons: your mom more

I noticed that all the reviews on this establishment are rather old... perhaps they decided not to go backafter the quality of the food dropped and the price stayed the same (about a year ago). I have heard rumors that irresponsible serving of alcohol (perhaps multiple times) resulted in Trillium getting spanked with OLCC fines and eventually an order to close the business for a long period of time. Guess they had to cut corners to make ends meet after the fines! I had a $10 club sandwich today (decided to give them another chance because I heard they were under new ownership/management). NOTHING HAS IMPROVED!!! the bacon and meat between the ""Wonder"" sourdough was just not up to snuff (and that is ALL there was on the so called club). The mystery meat at the county jail is better. AND NO CHEESE ON A TEN DOLLAR SANDWICH! The service is a little better and my complaints have nothing to do with WAY my sandwich was put together... just the quality of the ingredients was a complete joke in my book. We tried to explain this to the waitress, but she just responded with some defensive comments. I never complain about restaurant food.... but today I had had it! I signed up on Citysearch just to vent about it! I am a HR local and I am so tired of our, once awesome dinning establishments, simply phoning it in while they pray for the wind to kick up. Hey Dorks, don't you see that the locals come in for a beer, but decide to go home and cook cause the only that is blowing around here is your food? I hope you can sucker enough tourists in too keep yourself afloat because most locals are on to you. Actually... no I don't! I hope you go down in flames and give someone a chance who cares about the quality of the product there business produces. Sorry, but it is the truth. Trillium, step it up please. Pros: At least they have booze. Cons: QUALITY OF INGREDIENTS! more

I visited Hood River with some friends. The first thing I heard when we arrived was this deep loud voice. She yells at her employees and bad mouths her husband. It was so horrible we will never go back! I feel sorry for all her employees! Avoid.... more

Just had lunch here with my girlfriend, and have nothing but good things to say about the place! more

My wife and I came to Trillium and we were greeted and seated right when we walked through the door. Pros: the food, service and drinks, happy feeling when you walk through the door more

Thankyou. megan and steven Pros: bartender, food and bands more

I go to the TRILIUM Cafe a couple times each year, but my last visit will be my last. Even though the food is tasty, the waitress was HORRIBLE. Her name is Roxanne and her outfit looked like she should be working at a strip club, not a restaurant. My table (all females) was absolutely ignored all night while Roxanne flirted with the guys at the bar. It was disgusting and comical at the same time. I have never had such bad service and I won't go back. Pros: Tasty food. Cons: Extremely poor service. The live band is very loud for such a small space. Poor service. Did I mention poor service? more

We came to trillium and werent sure at first if we would like the food because it looks like more of a burger joint , but the the beautiful little waitress roxie came to the door right away and greeted us and explained to us how delicious the food was. Pros: waitress, drinks, and food, cleanliness Cons: need more desserts more

I come home from the mountain and stop in once in a while. I had the 3 cheese tortellini it was very tasty! Oh and the service that little brunette was very nice and beautiful. She recommended the menu item that i choose and man it was soooo tasty! Thankyou Thankyou ! I will highly recommend this place and thanks for the changes and the best service i've had lately in Hood River. more

I love this place! I drive down from Vancouver at least twice a month to spend the day in Hood River and I always stop here. The atmoshpere is great the staff is always real friendly and I love the food! If I had a complaint (and I dont) but if I did it would be that they need to get some better beers on tap. But other than that I love the place and would recommend to anyone.....well actually I tell everyone! Pros: great food, atmosphere Cons: need new tap beers! more

ok so i think sherricheu did not get the mood or the ambiance or was somehow disenchanted. but the food is not the overall draw it is open, interesting and has bands when no one else in town does. Pros: local bands and aprochable and fun - kids are great durring the day but they would have more fun somewhere else in the evening Cons: a bit tight more

I was appalled at this little cafe in Hood River, Oregon. The food was good but the kitchen looked dirty and disgusting. Pros: food was ok Cons: dirty kitchen and waitresses were not dressed in appropriate attire more

Enjoyed a fabulous lunch while visiting Hood River recently. Had the fried ravioli app and a delicious avocado, tillimook cheddar & chicken sandwich. Service was fine. Recommended! more

Yes, the waitress was drunk when my party arrived for dinner on Saturday evening April 14th, 2007. I'm sure that this is something we would have figured out on our own as the night progressed. However, we had the luxury of having the the waitress inform us of her impaired state of mind (and then some) during the first 5 minutes of being seated. Here's the infomation that I didn't need to know: Pros: Yummy food! Cons: Drunk waitress, employees to chummy with patrons, often plopping themselves down right next to you! more

This has some of the best food I've ever had at a bar. The baja chicken wrap is especially recommended. The food is so full of flavor. I definitely will be back! Pros: Excellent food Cons: Staff gets to chatting with others, so service is sometimes slow more

What a great night out. The people, food, and entertainment were excellent! Highly recommended when in Hood River! Pros: Food, Entertainment, Staff Cons: Only 24hrs in Day more
