“We had a wonderful tasting experience at Saffron, thanks to our host, Adam. He was the right amount of everything: attentive, funny, informative and so accommodating. Our wine purchase was mixed up and Adam went out of his way to make it right. That’s the kind of customer satisfaction that is so hard to find!
We will definitely be back and bring friends!!“

“If you’re looking for that down home feel, Scoggins Creek Coffee won’t disappoint…They have the most delicious beverages and the staff is amazing!!!🥰 Best Mom and Pop shop around! I highly recommended stopping by if you ever find yourself rolling through Gaston or Yamhill.“
“The wine tasting experience here was incredible. The staff were so friendly! They offer a nice range of red and white wines. I bought a few bottles and can’t wait to try more. I also recommend getting the cheese board - it was a nice touch throughout the tasting experience!“
“What an amazing recommendation from NW Wine Shuttle and Kim. We squeezed them in and it ended up being my favorite part of the day! Spending time with Russell and the heart and story of Flaneur gave me a little bit of Paris married with delicious wine of the Willamette Valley. I cannot wait to return for food pairing and getting the most our of my new membership and reason to head to quaint Carlton from Portland as much as I can and recommending others as well as clients. What a great stop, don't miss it.“
“Passionate and knowledgeable host, Joseph, did an incredible job showing us the ins and outs of all things Penner-Ash with a great attention to detail and a natural spirit for hospitality. He made our winter tasting experience incredibly special and we will certainly be back!“
“We had such a wonderful time New Year's Eve at Elk Cove. Kohl was an awesome host for our noon wine tasting extravaganza! Love the Elk Cove family and thanks so much for sharing the beautiful view of the vineyard from your new tasting room!“
“This is by far one of the best wineries I’ve been to in Oregon! The views of Mt. Hood are absolutely stunning, and the overall atmosphere is immaculate. The owners are incredibly welcoming and made the whole experience even more enjoyable for me and my friends. Plus, they have the cutest dog! The wine and food were both fantastic, especially the Bulls Blend! I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a great wine-tasting experience in Oregon with friends or family.“
“Great staff, great food, great atmosphere. GLUTEN FREE DELICIOUSNESS“
“We had a great experience tasting at the winery today! The new spirits area is also really cool with a cozy vibe. The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable, the wines and spirits were all lovely, and the view is gorgeous even on a rainy day like today. We will definitely be back again soon!“
“Love the scenery, the vineyards, setting, the choice in wines, friendly knowledgeable staff, and they are so friendly to my pug dog, Pancake!! Always take a different bottle home!!“
“A lovely family winery with incredible wines! I have been a club member now for many years and have enjoyed the consistent excellence of their wines as well as the lovely and peaceful setting with views of the coastal range while the sun goes down....“
“Had a lot of fun doing a tasting at Knudsen Vineyards. The wine was wonderful and we enjoyed the charcuterie we purchased. The wine was served in beautiful Reidel red wine stemware. We were also given a bonus tasting and a chocolate to enjoy. The tasting fee is waived if you purchase two bottles during your visit or join their wine club.“
“Our first visit to Willamette Valley on our fist day we decided to take a ride down to the coast, ended up on an amazing hike, visited the beach and stopped at a local seafood place in Manzanita and happed upon the most wonderful glass of Lemelson Pinot Noir. I immediately took a picture of the wine name to research later. We visited the vineyard the very next day, had a wonderful experience and as expected enjoyed every sip from our tasting. We are now proud Lemelson wine club members and couldn’t be more thrilled. I am a huge fan of Pinot Noir and this is some of the best. Our tasting experience was just as wonderful, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable, we had the best time relaxing by the fire and sipping on wine. This is a must stop when visiting the Willamette Valley!“

“I’m so happy to have a reasonably priced Italian food restaurant in McMinnville!! The food was amazing. To good to get pictures before we started eating it. My family and I got the steak bites, cheese bread, mushroom raviolis and a pepperoni pizza. They were all amazing and the service was great as well.“
“Pike Road is an amazing tasting room on 3rd Street in McMinnville! If you haven’t tried it yet, do yourself a favor and go. My friends are wine club members there and I’m so grateful. Each time we go, Dane, Mike, and anyone else working that day, are friendly, fun, informative, inquisitive, and caring. They pass on their knowledge and love for wine just by having simple, easygoing conversations with their guests. Thank you, Pike Road! See you again soon, I hope! 🥰💜🍷🍇“
“Went to the recent event at the winery, it was great! Good wine, and the staff was marvelous as always. The food was good, enjoyed it. But it was-is not appropriate for wine tasting. I do not understand the current trend of wineries inviting mexican food carts to wine tasting events. The food style tends to mess up ones palete. Beer or soda go great with Mexican food. Or possibly a huge red, but not the refined Pinot Noir and whites of the Willamette Valley.“

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“
“root and rye: 4 stars
The larder food cart: 0-1 stars
**the larder food cart does not have a google review page. To not hurt root and rye I changed my review to 4 stars even though they are a reflection of the food they have on their property and I hope other customers don’t experience the service we got.
Root and Rye was great, and the service there was friendly but couldn’t find a way to review the cart specifically. Unfortunately, we can’t say we’ll return due to an interaction with what we believe to be the owner of The Larder food cart.
When we were presented with the tip screen, there was no option for a custom tip, only preset amounts or zero. While we understand there are differing opinions on tipping culture, we ultimately selected zero because we intended to leave a custom tip. This was a service-window order for one appetizer, and we absolutely would have tipped if given the option.
We were told our small plate would be brought out to us, but when it was delivered, the interaction included snarky remarks and rude comments related to the tip selection. Both of us have worked in the service industry, and we cannot imagine returning to a guest to comment on a tip. Extremely unprofessional.
We eat out often and frequently tip for good service, but this was by far one of the most disappointing experiences we’ve had. Unfortunately, this interaction ruined our time & we decided to leave shortly after.
Also, if you are so worried about tips to support your employees a) pay them more yourself b) be kind to customers.“
“Celebrated an anniversary here with a tasting and enjoying the views and it was amazing! Our host Maddie was especially helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. Made the experience a 12/10! Would highly recommend coming to this beautiful vineyard and asking for Maddie! Will definitely come again :)“
“I love it here! not only is the vibe relaxed and welcoming. The employees are really keen on giving you suggestions of what to try and have even learned my plate l palate to help me broaden what type I beers I enjoy based on what I've experienced in the past. Becky and Alyssa are really well versed in the differences of the styles and regional flavors. love coming in here for a point or two or even to grab things for home. the varietals are unmatched.“
“As always we had a great time sampling some fantastic whiskeys, yummy snacks, AND we got a couple of “fly bys” from the Thunderbirds during our stay this afternoon! (Thanks, McMinnville Air Show!) The owners and staff at BP are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. And the whiskey is really good! We’re been several times and will continue to return! Thanks BP for another amazing experience!! Y’all rock!! 😉❤️“
“Very laid back with old school pricing. Love their whites and Rose. They’re sold out of Sauvignon Blanc. Great deal and atmosphere although just off the highway.“
“Wine was very good. I think what set them apart was their Rose, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir were all worth purchasing, and we did. Seems rare for a winery to excel across multiple categories.
My only complaint is the tasting fee is expensive given you need to purchase $70 or $75 worth of product to waive just one tasting. For $35 you’re better off ordering 3-4 glasses at table for your party. The tasting pours are tiny…an ounce or less. Truly, just a taste. Go to catch the view and enjoy a glass of wine…they’re all delicious and worth the price. Don’t waste money on the tasting.“
“Wines that are a good mix of displaying typical Oregon pinot fruit, but with enough restraint to let the complexity shine through.“
“Incredible hidden winery. We went here on a whim and we are so happy we did. The view is beautiful. The service was terrific. The wines were delicious. I highly recommend making the trip here. I can’t wait to return and to share it with others.“
“We visited Sokol Blosser on a January weekend for a tasting, and so I could propose to my long-time partner. I am so thankful to the folks at Sokol Blosser for helping make it a truly special visit. They worked with me in the weeks leading up to our visit to ensure I had a great plan on place. It worked out perfectly. Thank you so much for their attention and hospitality. And let's not forget we really love their Pinot and sparking wines :)“

“The food is amazing and they have an extensive menu. The staff is super friendly, funny and helpful. Absolutely worth the stop!“
“Good variety of wines with a wine maker that has great passion for his work.“
“Came on an amazing group tour. I have never been through wine aging caves in the US. The two leading is were great! The in-house golden retriever was a sweetheart. And of course, the WINE was AMAZING. We sampled 5 and their Summit was my favorite. Great tour to do on a rainy day since it's all inside and we were there in March before anything was growing outside.“
“This is our favorite winery in Oregon, hands down. Kira, Lucas, and the team are exceptional. Very knowledgeable, so warm and inviting. The tasting room is gorgeous, but the outside seating is unreal. Their reserve Chardonnay is out of this world.“
“Cellar Door Wine Tours took us to Tendril Wine Cellars first on our 3-winery tour and warned us we'd like it best. We truly did. Each wine was delicious. I'm an Oregon pinot noir fan and they make great ones, but also loved their white pinot noir and rose. Tasting manager Andrew was delightful and kept us both informed and laughing! The tasting room is very small, but they also have outside picnic tables for warmer months. Make an appointment and enjoy! I signed up for the wine club as I enjoyed every sip.“
“Incredible experience. Had the place to ourselves on a Thursday afternoon. Ray the manager of Craft guided us through the tasting and even gave us some extra wines to try as well. He was charming and gregarious and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If your in North Willamette you need to go to Craft, a definite must stop in Carlton“
“Ken Wright in Carlton, Oregon is a beautiful place for a delicious Pinot tasting. The tasting room is fabulous and the outside patio even better. Great wines, great staff ( I wish I had written down the gal’s name that hosted us) as she was knowledgeable, understood our palate and offered additional wines she thought we would like plus she was so fun. She also showed us the 1/2 Bottles we purchased for our at home wine tasting that evening. And of course we purchased other bottles. I recommend booking or stopping in Ken Wright Cellers.“

Parking: We parked in the lot behind the restaurant as street parking was full.“

“I had my first visit just this last week and I was really happy to see what a great, healthy and delicious menu it has! 100% rating on all flavors! Chicken kebab, Moroccan mint tea, Mezza sampler and the chicory salad all have high quality ingredients. The value of that for me is why I can enjoy dining out these days. Not just a menu of burgers and fries or tacos that are easy to make at home. I will keep Cypress on my top list of local restaurants worth returning too! The service level of quality management is very enjoyable.“
“I live in the San Francisco area Bay Area and wanted to spend my 65th birthday celebration in the Willamette Valley.
An amazing decision, furtherly THE BEST DECISION when having picked Youngberg Hill Inn & Winery as our home base.
Because we were there at low season, we got many chances to interact with owner Nicoletta, a most wonderful and captivating hostess.
Everything in our stay at Youngberg Hill Inn & Winery was A+++! And their wine tasting too, WOW!
My 65th birthday celebration was the best it could have been.
Thanks, Nicoletta. We can’t to come back again!“

“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.“
“Delicious wine in a gorgeous facility.
Beautiful grounds with views in every direction.
Meticulously laid out grounds in a Japanese style without pretension.
Very fun and helpful staff.
Phenomenal place for a wine tasting.“

“I moved to Mcminnville in January of 2025. I began frequenting the Dutch Bros 100 yards from my driveway!😁 The morning staff is without a doubt the most kind, caring, friendly, fun staff there is. I began to have a bunch of health issues and couldn't visit for a couple months. The warm welcome back was just what I needed. Your staff has laughed with me, listened to my troubles, comforted me after learning of the loss of my 15 yo granddaughter, and celebrated with me as if they were my family! Bravo! You've hired some of the best Broistas on the planet! I am blessed just to know them! This staff needs to be protected at all costs! The world is a better place because they are in it. You guys are truly AMAZING! Always and always, I will have a special place in my heart for every one of you🦋💜🦋💜🦋💜🦋💜🦋 Love, Gigi😍“
“Beautiful winery with an outdoor patio overlooking the vineyards and mountains. There were many French wines from their sister vineyard on the tasting we had. Some
of the Pinots were fuller bodied than I am used to, but still delicious. I loved the atmosphere and enjoyed the tasting!“

“This is country French cuisine. Plentiful and delicious. They take the comfort food preparation very seriously but true to Oregon, you can show in your Sunday best or jeans and feel comfortable. We celebrate We drive from Hillsboro a few times a year. The staff always warm and friendly. Just go, and make it a special drive date.“

“Beautiful place to be. The Staff is very friendly and attentive. The food is very good, we really enjoy going there.“
“Must start with full disclosure--my wife, Sunshine and I have never been there--BUT, having just completed an AMA waterways wine cruise in France we met wonderful people from Stoller, including Gary Mortensen who presented wine tasting of their excellent wines and enthusiastic, humorous lectures. We sampled many great French wines on this cruise, but none topped the Stoller chardonnays we tasted. The Stoller Family Estate is definitely on our "bucket list". We also met Bill Stoller's lovely sister, Nancy. We tasted a wine Bill named after her and it was to die for! Thanks Stoller for sending your lively group on our cruise. I'm sure when we finally visit, you'll earn this five star rating! Say hi to Gary and Nancy for us.“

“My wife, my mother-in-law and I ate here again tonight for probably the 6th or 7th time. The food has always been good. The staff and servers were good as always, but huge shout out to Arthur. If you are a restaurant owner looking for a Greg server, Arthur is your guy. Trust me, I told him before I walked out. If I was a restaurant owner looking for a good server. I'd pay you twice what they're paying you. Five stars or 10 Stars depending on what you're rating is, but great experience overall,“

“Such a great wine tour and tasting! We had Eric as our guide and he was a wealth of knowledge (as well as a great photographer for group shots).They were very accommodating when we ran into some transportation issues too. The winery has such a cool history and amazing views! This is a must do when visiting the area!“
