This place is such a hidden gem! First off, it’s a family-owned ice cream shop, and you can really feel the difference—they care about quality more than just making profits. The whole vibe is super friendly and down-to-earth. One thing to keep in mind: they’re cash only, so make sure to bring some with you. If you forget, no worries—they actually let you mail in a check later, which is such a rare and thoughtful touch these days. They’ve also got private parking in the back, which makes life so much easier, and there’s even a restroom for customers. Families will love this place because there’s a small play area and a little treehouse where kids can have fun while you relax with your ice cream. Now for the ice cream. Seriously, it’s the best ice cream you’ll find around here. They don’t have a huge menu, but every flavor they do offer is top-notch. I tried the pista almond and it was incredible—creamy, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness. You can tell they put a lot of love into making it. All in all, this is the kind of spot you’ll want to keep coming back to. Great ice cream, family-friendly atmosphere, and people who genuinely care about what they’re serving. Highly recommend stopping by!

Mike’s Ice Cream has been a Hood River landmark for nearly 30 years. In front of the small shop, there are tables & chairs, benches, and grass to sit on while you eat your treats. Watch the busy Hood River tourist scene go by as you enjoy your cone. Open seasonally from May until about October. The taste was so good sweet and a bit sour!! love ❤️ them all.

I visited Mike’s Ice Cream and I loved it. The town of Hood River is very beautiful and this place is perfect if you want a dessert. The ice cream is very good and there are many flavors to choose from and the price is good. There are many tables in the patio to sit and enjoy, and even a treehouse for kids to play. 🛝👦🌲 The workers are very kind and always smiling. I recommend bringing cash because it is easier to pay. 💰
