Try These 6 Delicious McMinnville Restaurants

One of the best parts about McMinnville restaurants is their variety and exquisite attention to detail. Whether you’re looking for a taste of comfort on a chilly fall or winter’s day, creative fine dining menus from award-winning chefs, or the freshest farm-to-table cuisine featuring locally-grown products, you won’t leave disappointed.

McMinnville’s food scene is as bustling as ever this summer, too, with many precautions being taken.  Most McMinnville restaurants offer outdoor seating and/or takeout, which can always be brought back to the Inn and enjoyed in our beautiful spaces. While you’re in the valley enjoying wine tastings and other adventures, here are 10 of the best restaurants currently thrilling diners in McMinnville.

  1. One of the most popular McMinnville restaurants in recent years has been Pura Vida Cocina. This downtown mainstay features a delicious fusion of Central American, Peruvian, and Mexican cuisine. They are currently open for outdoor dining and takeout.
  2. A meal at Thistle is nothing short of exquisite.  It’s one of the most popular McMinnville restaurants, for good reason. The food is sourced locally and prepared with classic French techniques, producing one of the most coveted dining experiences in Willamette Valley. Their dinner service will be back with outdoor seating as of August 11th, 2021.
  3. It’s hard to go wrong with pizza, especially when it comes from somewhere as amazing as Pizza Capo. These delicious pies were once limited to a pop-up restaurant, but they’ve since launched a full-service restaurant on McMinnville’s Third Street. They are offering limited indoor dining throughout the summer and fall, or you can order in advance for take-out.
  4. Red Hills Kitchen, the sister restaurant to Dundee’s Red Hills Market, is located in the Atticus Hotel in downtown McMinnville.  Here, you can expect to find dishes that celebrate the bounty of the Willamette Valley. They offer both indoor and outdoor dining, along with takeout.
  5. If communal dining sounds fun to you (and why wouldn’t it be?) – then head to Community Plate. Inside, you’ll find friendly communal tables and a wonderful variety of locally sourced ingredients.
  6. The Mac Market is a must-see foodie destination in McMinnville, filled with a variety of delicious eats. One of our favorites inside the market is the Collab Kitchen, which features a variety of deliciously creative small plates, always featuring whatever is in season.
