McMinnville Restaurants

Absolutely fantastic. Incredible food served and presented properly. Casually elegant ambiance. Great value in terms of cost. Easily one of the top restaurants in the PNW. I cannot overstate this experience. PERFECT.

A-maz-ing. I chose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday with friends. It was a first visit for all of us. From the cocktails to salads, breads, our pasta choices, risotto, and finally dessert, everything was delicious. Our server was knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. I appreciate the stated time allowance for diners to keep reservations on schedule. We are all looking forward to our next dining experience there.

I’m a bit biased as the crew at Hayward are my friends but genuinely they have worked so hard to make every aspect of your visit so inviting. Table service was excellent but not too pushy. The food was incredible and came out in decent time frames. If you order staggered or do the kickback (which I highly recommend) it never feels like you’re waiting around for things. You get to enjoy each item without feeling rushed to finish it so you can get to the next one. The dining room is nice, quiet but not too quiet you can still hear the hustle and bustle of the rest of the building which I think is charming to have such an incredible space in a community building like that. I think Hayward is the perfect spot if you like the idea of meals made with the seasons and like a bit of adventure to your meal.

Alea Bakery and Cafe knocked it out of the park again with their latest pop-up! Can’t wait for the next one!!!

We are locals and this is our favorite restaurant in McMinnville. As always, the food was excellent and we love the ambience. The wait staff is friendly and efficient. My wife had her favorite - wild salmon - and was not disappointed. I had a bean stew with several kinds of meat plus a duck leg and thigh - very nice. We'll be back!
