“Whether you are looking to shoot some pool or just shoot some…, some, more pool? There is definitely lots for good folks, food, refreshments, and entertainment available here!
Looks like a real good place to hang out if you like shooting pool! Lots of tables and from what I’m seeing, quite a few sharks’s teeth (trophies) around the place! Definitely my kinda place!
Just stopped in tonight for a couple burgers but really felt like staying and having a few drinks with the friendly patrons who were having a great time there. Looks like there is live music available as well!
The burgers are the best in town! We are definitely coming back to see what else their menu has to offer! 🍔🍕🍤🍺🍷🥃🍹“

“We were at Humble Spirit last night and were blown away by our meal . We started with the meatballs and veggie platter, we had the pasta, chicken and the daily special of duck. Every one of the meals was absolutely divine !! The pasta is by far one of the best pasta dishes I have ever eaten. I highly recommend you try Humble Spirit !“

“Interior design was lovely, service was good. Food fell a little short in some courses. Particularly the main course- my steak was chewy (not in a good way) and way too salty. My husband spaghetti was good but nothing special. It was nice but I'm not sure it justified the price tag.“

“We always love our evenings out at Tina’s in Dundee. Michael and Dawn and the entire staff are fabulous! We love the food, the atmosphere, the service, and so much more!“

“Tried it today! It was good 👍🏼 the service was excellent and the food came out quickly as well.“

“Had one of the best fish dishes of my life. Wife had the pork and she loved it. Staff was absolutely amazing. Drinks were also top notch. Definitely can’t wait to go back!“

“Stopped in for a quick lunch before our winery visit
Had a half sandwich and soup special. Soup was delicious (creamy tomato) with fresh ingredients and delicious flavors. Sandwich was an Italian. Delicious as well.
Had a nice glass of Pinot Noir from Marshall Davis winery. Keri was a great host as well!

Great place for a delicious meal. Would definitely stop here again.“

“A Must-Visit Lunch Spot in McMinnville! Every time I visit McMinnville, this restaurant is at the top of my list—and once again, it did not disappoint! In fact, my friend and I loved it so much that we had lunch here twice during our trip. The corn chowder was absolutely fantastic—so creamy with just the right amount of seasoning. My friend enjoyed the ½ Turkey Sandwich, while I devoured the Chicken Cashew Salad, which was fresh and delicious. The broccoli cheddar soup was just okay, but the tomato vegetable soup was a standout, according to my friend. And let’s not forget the in-house wheat bread—fresh, flavorful, and the perfect complement to our meal. Our waitress, Andrea, was incredible! I highly recommend asking for her—she was attentive, friendly, and made our experience even better. To finish, we split a lemon cupcake—our only regret was sharing it! It was perfectly moist, and the cream cheese icing was out of this world. Don’t miss your chance to enjoy an amazing lunch here. Hours: 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM.“

“A nice place on the main street of McMinville to stop in for a scoop or two. They also had a couple baked goods for sale, but i was there for one thing, a classic cone. They have a nice selection from regional dairies and have a pleasant sit-down experience.“

“Nice breakfast stop with solid coffee and a nice mix of savory and sweet pasteries. And an awesome slection of local and sustainable products with fruit, veg and meat from local farms. Love this place!,❤️“

“the French toast is a must!!!“

“This is not just a restaurant it is a place that envelopes you in kindness and warmth. Aside from the fact that the food is fresh a d local and AMAZING, the staff is beyond excellent. Despite the name this is not your typical diner it is an experience in excellence and is our family’s place for all major events. I simply love it“

“Small, clean, friendly and the food is excellent! It is closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays.“

“Best place to eat and the friendliest staff and owner they had the best thanksgiving dinner ever. Highly recommend eating here.“

“love this place! great food!“

“What a stunning location! Although we experienced a delay with our food due to a WiFi glitch that prevented orders from reaching the kitchen, the staff handled it with impressive care and urgency. They quickly sorted everything out, allowed guests to switch to lunch options, and generously comped all our meals—plus treated us to delicious lemon pies. Best of all, when the food arrived, it was absolutely incredible. Everyone in our group was raving about their dishes. Despite the initial hiccup, the atmosphere was lively and the service truly outstanding. Highly recommend!“

“A lovely experience in this farmhouse setting in wine country. We ordered the caviar and it was well allocated with understated buckwheat miniature waffles. The amuse bouche was a cute bite of flavorful mousse inside a tiny crispy cone. A nice start to the dedication of the chef. The mushroom tartlets were delicious and well worth ordering. The soup was stunning as well. Something that added a little surprise was the Green Salad with Lardons. The dressing very tasty. The duck plating was something to mention. Beautifully executed. Our table mate said the Beef Stroganoff was the best they have ever had. The drinks were nicely inventive and overall if you seek fine dining this should definitely be added to your list. We ordered off the menu and did not do the tasting menu. That will be left for another day along with the trolley cheese cart selections.“

“First time to Storrs barbecue. my wife and I shared their sampler smoked meats, came with brisket, ribs, chicken wings and pulled pork. All were great, especially the brisket. The two young men working had outstanding customer service, friendly and professional. We'll be back.“

“It was such a great experience, the ambience was so very romantic! We went for a date night that was soo much needed and left very satisfied! Thank you soo very much for making our date night a success!“

“If there were such a thing as an afterlife, and I somehow mistakenly ended up being sent to the place where good and decent people go, the chicken pot pie would be a standard menu item for all eternity.❤️“

“Very great place aesthetically one of my favorites when it comes to seating tons of little hidden gyms to look at, and there’s at least one little out cove some little games for the kiddos if they’re with you when you go represent lunch type stuff on top of coffee atmosphere reminds me a lot of the coffee shop from the TV show friends based on the fact that they’ve got couches kind of like a lot of concrete vibe like something. If you didn’t live in the town, you might miss it cause it’s on a side street. they have a chessboard there played chess numerous times we’re having coffee. They have really good cinnamon rolls there gluten-free cookies and if you want a sandwich it’s gluten-free. I am almost positive. They have gluten-free options, but you might want to check availability because you never know if they’re out or not or if they just don’t have any in the day you go in coffee is good. I recommend trying the cappuccino there. It’s not bad.“

“Great place to melt into Oregon culture. Warm friendly people couldn’t have had a better time anywhere. Food service value five stars“

“Wonderful food! Wonderful service! Thank you so much!!!“

“I am of the opinion that the food is excellent! my favorite part however is that the staff are fair friendly and responsible bar tenders. #HealthyVibes“

“Berts chuckwagon is some of the better barbecue we have around here. Trouble is in the northwest we just don’t have a lot of barbecue. I feel like the sides are what really shine. His ribs are good. They do it smoked style but they are pretty tough and dry and that’s what happens when you smoke ribs. Mine are like 10 times better in the oven and so juicy they fall off the bone. He’s a nice guy and the prices are moderate for what they offer portions are pretty generous. I’ve eaten here multiple times when I didn’t feel like cooking. Will probably come back again. But I do prefer to make my own barbecue over berts.“

“It was so fun to go back in the Pirate’s Den. Thanks to all those who are keeping that small-town staple going. I got the breakfast burrito and cinnamon roll. I liked the large amount of cheese on the burrito. I wish it would have come with some salsa because the potatoes were a little dry by 9:30 am. The cinnamon roll icing and filling were great and I liked the to-go style packaging.“

“Love this place, we come here every week. One thing. They changed the ketchup from Portland ketchup to what i assume is house made. Has a lot of apple flavor. Not a fan, brung back the Portland ketchup please!!! Other than that food is always fantastic!“

“Tommy was GREAT and so was the food and drinks! Highly recommend, we will be back!“

“Beautiful place to be. The Staff is very friendly and attentive. The food is very good, we really enjoy going there.“

“Just passing through town and stopped for a late lunch. I sat outside since the indoor dining room was empty and didn’t seem inviting. I got garlic parm wings and a side of baked beans. They came out pretty quickly. The wings had some chicken gravy or similar on them which was disappointing since I prefer my wings to be crispy. Otherwise it was okay.“

“Haley is the best! 1 girl army!“

“50's diner type style. Ate the 1/4 burger minus sweet relish. crinkle fries and their fry sauce. Tasted home-made, so full didn't have room for the ice cream they make onsight. We will go again, friendly staff. You can tell locals go here, popular place.“

“If you are craving a sandwich, burger, or salad with a refreshing beverage, this is a place for you. We ordered the prime rib on a Saturday night. It was flavorful and moist. Our CC only critique is that we would have liked a little more variety on the menu. The service was excellent at the pub and cellar“

“Hit the McMenamins Pub, McMinnville, Oregon on a recent visit and had a Capt. Neon Burger with tots and a Dirty Shirley.

The Capt. Neon Burger shows up looking unapologetically hearty. A soft, lightly toasted bun cradles a thick, juicy beef patty cooked to a satisfying char on the outside while staying tender inside. Crisp lettuce and fresh red onion add crunch and bite, while the bacon brings smoky richness that anchors the whole stack. It’s a straightforward burger done confidently...no gimmicks, just solid execution. The toothpick through the top is a small detail, but it reinforces that classic pub-burger presentation.

The tater tots on the side are exactly what you want them to be: golden, crunchy on the outside, fluffy inside, and clearly fried with care. Dunked into the generous pool of ketchup, they’re nostalgic in the best way
...simple, salty, and addictive.

The Dirty Shirley is pure throwback fun with a grown-up twist. Served ice-cold in a tall glass, it’s fizzy, lightly sweet, and refreshingly tart. The grenadine sinks and swirls through the clear soda, giving it that iconic pink hue, while the cherry garnish leans hard into retro charm. It’s bright, playful, and dangerously easy to drink less cocktail bravado, more cheerful indulgence.“

“I recommend the waitress Monica Barrera at the IHOP in Panorama City Calif as she gives such great and wonderful service. She asks if everything is ok and always comes back to give refills. This is much appreciated. Best wishes from the original Johnny Blaze, and "may the Blaze be with you."“
