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!

Such a fun ice cream joint! Cash only but if you are really wanting to get some ice cream you can pay later via mail. It feels like these guys really want you to enjoy their ice cream. I tried the Oregon cherry ice cream and it was absolutely delish. Highly recommend.

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.

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.

Obviously the employees or friends are doing the reviews. I’ve never wanted to dump icecream in my life. This was a first. It DOES NOT TASTE GOOD. THE pistachio did not taste like pistachio but had a weird metallic taste. The salted caramel tasted fruity! The cookie jar flavor had cookies in it that were STALE and blah! And to top it off, we paid $7 for a double that was less icecream than the KIDS size the kids behind us got. I would have taken it back but we drove away and parking in this town is ridiculous. I dumped it. Their store bought waffle cones have so much glue on them you can’t eat the cone or you get mouth full of paper. NEVER AGAIN. DON’T WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY on a place that the reviews are obviously rigged at.

The ice cream is delicious!!! Very simple flavors, allows you to enjoy the most basic flavors. Also it’s the perfect blend of flavor and sugar. Not too sweet not too plain. I had the espresso ice cream cone ( sugar cone) and mint chip, two great blends yet not one overpowering the other.
The best part of the ice cream is that it has great customer service. The servers allowed you to sample and offered advice on what would blend well.
The outside has a nice seating area to rest and enjoy your cones or your bowls. Lots of room to relax and an enjoy and outing with the family.
Top notch business , great atmosphere, and relaxation. What else could you ask for?

Very yummy ice cream and super friendly staff. I LOVE that you can get multiple flavors no matter the size! And though they are cash/check only, I was really touched that they prefer that you order your ice cream and get a handwritten IOU slip to mail cash or check later, than go without ice cream! So lovely. Cute outdoor seating as well.
