@smokinggoosemeatery wagyu baloney on @oyatsupanbakers milk bread with Cooperโ€™s American cheese, fresh lettuce, shaved sweet onion and Dukeโ€™s mayo.

So simple. So good. 

Nostalgic in all the right ways, and honestly pretty hard to beat for a quick grab-and-go sandwich.

Available now at the drive-in.

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.

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:

Aleviaโ€™s background is rooted in some of Portlandโ€™s best bakeries, including Little T American Baker and Twisted Croissant.

She now focuses that experience into cookies, pastries, and naturally leavened sourdough breads;built around seasonal ingredients and small-batch production.

Together, we built a cookie lineup to match our โ€œGarden Partyโ€ menuโ€”pulling in Mediterranean and Levantine ingredients while keeping things grounded in the familiar, nostalgic flavors we all know.

@dougmiriello grew up in restaurant kitchens in Connecticut, with early memories of his grandmotherโ€™s kitchenโ€”Sunday gravy, manicotti, food as a way of taking care of people.

He cooks from memoryโ€”with quality ingredients, simple technique; just darn good food.

This one pulls from the pasticceria (the bakery counter - like youโ€™ll find at Dimoโ€™s Italian Specialties)... glass cases stacked with cookies, sweet pastries, cakes and cannoli; chocolate everywhere. You donโ€™t pick one thing. You want all of it.

Thatโ€™s what this sundae feels like. All those classic Italian dessert flavors, together in one indulgent cup.

This seasonโ€™s plant-based signature sandwich. A springtime staple that puts cauliflower front and center. We change the set a bit each yearโ€”this time leaning into the flavors of North Africa, specifically Morocco.

Thick-cut cauliflower steaks are marinated in our housemade hibiscus-harissa and roasted hot for a bit of spicy char.

The chutney is the highlightโ€”apricot, caramelized onion, castelvetrano olive, currant, preserved lemon, and tagine spices. Sweet, complex, and packed with flavor.

Chermoula blended with coconut yogurt and a little mayo for a bright, cooling sauce.

Spicy greens, lime-cured onion, crispy lentils, toasted almond crunch. All on a poppyseed Kaiser roll.

Sweet, savory, spiced, a little smoky, herbaceous. If you want to go without meat and not miss it, this is the move.

Also available as a rice bowl for the gluten-sensitive.

On the menu now and through the Spring season.

Nature Club is the outdoor lifestyle extension of @sugarpinedrivein. It started in 2025 as a way to share our love of the Columbia River Gorge and the culture of exploration that surrounds it.

Sugarpine sits at the gateway to the Gorge in Troutdale. Mile marker zero of the scenic Columbia River Highway, just steps from the Sandy River.

Weโ€™ve always thought of this place as a jumping-off point... If the Gorge is Portlandโ€™s playground, Sugarpine is โ€œAdventure HQโ€. Itโ€™s the place you start from, end up at, or come back to.

And Nature Club is built around that rhythmโ€ฆ

New to the specials board starting today...

Part of our Spring Mediterranean menu, this one pulling from Moroccan flavors and the spirit of the Arab souk market - bustling, narrow alleyways lined with colorful spices, rich textiles, and hot grills, where food is built fast and made to enjoy on-the-go.

It starts with grilled chicken thigh โ€” seasoned with fragrant ras al hanout and marinated with yogurt โ€” wrapped in a warm pita with smoked garlic toum. Layered with a cucumber and barberry salad, chicories dressed in smoked olive oil, sumac + lemon-cured onions, and shaved rainbow carrot. Finished with fresh herbs and a drizzle of cool yogurt sauce.

Smoked, spiced, bright and herbaceous โ€” come try one today, weโ€™re open 11 to 5. โœŒ๏ธ

Chad grew up on this river, has been fishing it for decades, and still spends most of his days off floating it โ€” he knows it like an old friend.

Sugarpine sits where the Sandy meets the Columbia โ€” the confluence of a watershed shaped by glacial sediment, catastrophic flooding, and constant movement. Banks erode, channels migrate. Pools and pockets shift with the seasons. The river is always changing, but Chad knows all the lies. Still, nothing is guaranteed.

The lower Sandy meanders, and the pace out here settles you into it. You let out the lines, paddle through seams, slide into softer water, then reel and repeat. One drift rolls into the next, and somewhere along the way, the pressure to chase a takedown fades, and you lock in.

We call it a โ€œcurrent state of mindโ€ โ€” the river has a way of bringing you back to the moment.

This oneโ€™s for the green thumbs. The garden lovers. The verdant-hearted.

The ones who wait out Winter just to get their hands back in the dirt โ€” first warm days, soft soil, slow circles of nature coming back around.

This seasonโ€™s signature sundae is a dirt cup like you havenโ€™t had before. A parfait-style sundae with layers of nostalgia, Italian coffee, and cocoa:

Make this your move after a day in the dirt, or an afternoon out on the trail โ€” plant yourself at a picnic table overlooking the Sandy River, and dig in.

Two green thumbs up. 
Available all Spring long at the drive-in.
