The Garage

The Garage is an intimate event venue in Bingen, Washington, in the Columbia River Gorge, a short drive from Hood River. Its flexible setting suits organisers planning a rehearsal dinner, workshop, business meeting, retreat or small group gathering. The venue has a relaxed, industrial-inspired character, with thoughtfully chosen furnishings and a warm, comfortable feel.

Bookings include use of a fully equipped kitchen, farm-style dining tables, cocktail tables, ceramic tableware, glassware, serving pieces and a drinks station. French doors open onto a spacious deck with outdoor seating, giving guests another place to gather and chat. For a formal meal, the venue accommodates up to 32 people, while a casual buffet-style event can host around 50 to 60. Parking is available in the venue's own lot, with additional street parking nearby.

Organisers can hire the space for a range of durations, including shorter daytime bookings for meetings and workshops, or a full day for a rehearsal dinner. The Garage can also suggest local caterers, private chefs, florists and accommodation providers, while clients remain able to arrange their own event suppliers. The team offers planning support around the booking and is available to answer questions during the event, helping organisers manage practical details. Located close to the Columbia River Gorge's scenery and outdoor activities, The Garage offers a distinctive local setting for gatherings that call for an informal, personal atmosphere.
