Spring has been good to us. Weโ€™ve got a little ov Spring has been good to us.

Weโ€™ve got a little over a week left of our Garden Party Menu before we make the switch to Summer. A few favorites are headed out, and weโ€™re getting ready to roll out a menu inspired by tropical vacations, beach days, and long afternoons by the water.

Itโ€™s going to be hot on the Sandy River this weekend. Come grab a soft serve sundae, a cold drink, or a picnic lunch. Weโ€™ve got plenty of ways to cool off.

Open Wednesday thru Monday, 11โ€“5. See you soon.โœŒ๏ธ

Adรกn, best known for his Mariscos con Onda popups, has built a reputation for bold Mexican flavors that have had Portland chasing his food across the city. For this collaboration, we traded tacos and sundaes.

Smoky. Herbaceous. Tangy. Tender.

One of our most-requested seasonal sandwiches is back at the drive-in for the next three weeks.

Saddle up. Weโ€™re open Wednesday thru Monday 11 to 5. โœŒ๏ธ

Rich chocolate, toasted corn, bright fruit, and gentle chile come together in a sundae inspired by the flavors, traditions, and memories that shaped Chef Adรกnโ€™s cooking.

Summer is only a few weeks away. The river is warming up, the days are stretching out, and our tropical vacation-inspired summer menu is right around the corner.

Until then, come enjoy the final stretch of Garden Party season, a couple new sundaes, and some of the best days of the year in the Gorge.

Available now at the drive-in. โœŒ๏ธ

Our Roasted Strawberry Sundae Sauce starts with the best Columbia River Gorge strawberries, slowly roasted with fresh lemon to concentrate their flavor before being blended into a rich fruit sauce that captures the flavor of late Spring in Oregon.

Itโ€™s so good on ice cream, but thatโ€™s just the beginning. Swirl it into lemonade (we use it in our Roasted Strawberry Lemonade at the drive-in), fold it into whipped cream or cold foam, blend it into an ice cream base, drizzle it over cheesecake or shortcake, or stir a little miso into it and brush it onto grilled chicken or pork on the grill.

And if youโ€™re celebrating strawberry season with us at the drive-in, donโ€™t miss our seasonal Strawberry Sorbet Soft Serve while itโ€™s around.

Find our Roasted Strawberry Sundae Sauce at natural markets in Oregon, online at Sugarpinegoods.com; or come grab a jar or sauce trio at the drive-in and make the most of strawberry season while it lasts.

Adรกn, best known for his Mariscos con Onda popups, has become one of the most exciting voices in Portlandโ€™s Mexican food scene โ€” bringing together coastal Mexican cooking, open-fire flavor, and the kind of bold, craveable food thatโ€™s had people chasing his food across the city. At Tope, that same energy powers a taco program that goes toe-to-toe with some of the best in Portland.

So for June, we traded tacos and sundaes.

Inspired by the bold, sun-baked cooking of Calabria in Southern Italy โ€” a region known for smoke, spice, preserved vegetables, open flame cooking, and cucina povera traditions built around making humble ingredients feel deeply satisfying.

Built around the best parts of Oregon Spring: sweet rainbow carrots, crisp sugar snap peas, peppery greens, and the smoky flavors of grill season just beginning โ€” grilled chicken thighs glazed with hot honey and finished with a carrot bomba sauce made from melted eggplant, sweet peppers, mushrooms, onion, confit garlic, pickled chilies and Italian herbs.

Weโ€™re excited to debut a new sourdough ciabatta from @WillowandFernBakery, the baking project of Chef Alevia Wolfe here in Troutdale. Airy crumb, soft chewy interior, lovely sourdough flavor โ€” the kind of bread that takes a sandwich to the next level.

Motherโ€™s Day felt like the right reason to slow down for this one...

So many of the people who make Sugarpine what it is are women. Women who lead here, create here, raise families, build community, and still make space for adventure, fresh air, and time together outside.

This monthโ€™s ๐—™๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฑ ๐—ก๐—ผ๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜€ โ€” โ€œ๐—ฌ๐—ข๐—จ ๐—”๐—ฅ๐—˜ ๐—ฆ๐—ข ๐—š๐—ข๐—ฅ๐—š๐—˜โ€ is about the quiet ways mothers shape our relationship with the outdoors.

Not through big moments.

Through the smaller ones that stay with you forever.

Your mom letting you stay in the rain a little longer.
Stopping with you along the trail to look at rocks, flowers, and little discoveries.
Teaching confidence through trust.
Planting seeds that quietly shape who we become.
Showing your kids that a life outdoors is something worth holding onto.

This one feels personal to us.

Sugarpine is woman-owned. A lot of our team is made up of incredibly talented women. And every day we get to watch families gather here after hikes, river days, wildflower walks, and long drives through the Gorge.

The older you get, the more you realize the memories that stay with you most usually arenโ€™t about the destination.

Theyโ€™re about who was beside you along the way.

Wildflowers are nearing peak bloom here in the Columbia River Gorge โ€” hillsides washed in bright green, slopes exploding with balsamroot and lupineโ€ฆ wildflowers stretching as far as you can see.

The waterfalls are still ripping from the runoff, trails are in prime shape, and the days are long enough to stretch out.

Itโ€™s one of those windows that makes living here feel pretty special. Time to make a plan to get out there.

If youโ€™re heading out, these are the spots:
- Memaloose Hills
- Rowena Crest/Tom McCall Preserve
- Dog Mountain (WA side)
- Mosier Plateau (pro tip: plan a stop at @analemmawines)

Swing by before or after, weโ€™ve got the snacks covered:
- Dirt Cup Tiramisu sundae
- Wildflower Sugar Cookie from @willowandfernbakery
- Spring Blossom Trail Mix
- fresh seasonal salads
- and more creative comfort fuel

See you at the drive-in soon! โœŒ๏ธ

Smoked Columbia River king salmon with poached fingerling potatoes, niรงoise olives, lemon-dill labneh, pickled green beans, cured egg, marinated cucumber, Greek dressing and turnip-mentaiko taramasalata.

Spring Chinook season is the best time of year in the Gorge. โ€œSpringersโ€ are the king of fish. We wait all year for it. High fat, deep orange color, clean, rich flavor โ€” it doesnโ€™t need much.

We keep the smoke light and pair it with Niรงoise vegetables, plus herby labneh and turnip taramasalta that add a touch of Greek influence. And a soft, 7 minute egg cured in turmeric that adds even more savory richness.

It is a bit more than youโ€™d expect from a drive-in salad special, for sure... but itโ€™s so damn good. 

On the specials board now and for the next couple of weeks.

That rich, earthy sesame with the berries lands somewhere near PB&J โ€” just a little more grown up.
Crunchy, jammy, nutty. Nostalgic, but new.

A new sandwich special from Chef Jordan Cassel (@cookingcassel), inspired by the coastal traditions of the Canary Islandsโ€”where Spanish, Portuguese, North African, Latin American and indigenous foodways meet.

This Mediterranean cuisine leans on bold mojo sauces, fresh seafood, Spanish ham, and bright, herb-driven flavors.

For our special, poached prawns are tossed in a spiced, herbaceous mojo verde (think chimichurri with a little North African spice) and tucked into a butter-toasted split-top bun. From there: we layer in pickled Anaheim peppers, blanched radishes, fresh herbs, chorizoโ€“potato chip crumb, and a smoky mojo picรณn aioli made with pimentรณn, piquillo & fresno peppers, garlic and cumin.

A little surf-and-turf roll for this beautiful Spring weather - bright and herbaceous, with just enough spice to keep it interesting.

Come try one - on the specials board now and for the next few weeks. See you soon.โœŒ๏ธ

A Chef Sundae with Doug Miriello of Dimoโ€™s Apizza and Dimoโ€™s Italian Specialties.

Dougโ€™s cooking is rooted in East Coast Italian-American tradition โ€” the kind of food that feels familiar, but only works when itโ€™s done right. Thereโ€™s a sense of history to it. Recipes that feel passed down, handled with care, built on good ingredients.

This sundae comes from memory. Dougโ€™s childhood ritual โ€” stopping at an Italian bakery on the way to his grandmaโ€™s house in Lyndhurst. Standing in front of the case. The anticipation, the variety, not knowing what to pick so you get a few things.

Thatโ€™s the idea here โ€” classic Italian-American flavors, a few bakery counter staples, all in one:
