1 Best Restaurant in Cascade Locks, The Columbia River Gorge

Thunder Island Brewing

$$ Fodor's choice

Hikers, boaters, and others exploring the Gorge gather at this laid-back, funky brewpub located in striking contemporary building overlooking the Columbia River, the Bridge of the Gods, and the little island for which the brewery is named. Order a glass of hoppy Pacific Crest Trail Pale Ale or malty Scotch Porter, and enjoy it with a wild-salmon bowl or a kimchi Reuben sandwich. Wine and hard cider are also served.
