Here's a curated list of where to eat, go wine tasting, shop and more in Oregon's wine country: our personal travel guide to the places we love most in Willamette Valley (including Newberg, Dundee, Carlton, McMinnville and Amity) and Portland metro areas. This is a work-in-progress - much more to come!
Newberg
Delicious French-inspired options at approachable prices with warm, efficient hospitality. The wine by the glass list has lots of fun options at equally fun prices, so you can try a few new things. Our go-tos: the Fish & Chips, Crab Louie and whatever fresh fish Sean has on the menu that day. Lots of outdoor dining; open every day for lunch and dinner with brunch on the weekends.
Newberg
Artisan New York style pizza and salad bowls in a speakeasy-esque space tucked behind the shops on College Street. Takeout and delivery also available.
Newberg
A gorgeously positioned cabin amidst the vines makes for the perfect tasting spot. We love that there’s lots of outdoor seating, a fireplace for rainy days, a perfect 10 of a cheese/charcuterie plate, a friendly hospitality team – and the wines are beautiful, too. Our guests receive member discounts, so make sure mention us when reserving.
Newberg
One of our fave casual spots in downtown Newberg with a nice selection of craft beer pours, affordable wines by the glass and bottle, and bar bites (think nachos, soft pretzels and crostini). It’s a local and industry hang, too, so a great opportunity to experience more of this great community.
Newberg
This gem of a gift shop in downtown Newberg carries a great selection of cards, local pottery, art, jewelry, and other gifts in a sweet little house at College + 2nd Street, just a couple blocks down from our Cottage and Bungalow.
Newberg
After moving from their first location, Agrivino in Carlton, Chef Dario has set up in downtown Newberg and is serving up absolutely delicious Northern-Italian dishes with a fun schedule: five course wine paired dinner Thursday through Saturday, gnocchi and pizza on Sunday, and a salad and pasta menu on Monday. Lunch served Thursday through Saturday. Reservations required.
Newberg
Fine dining, but still cozy and comfortable. Rather than a table reservation, we prefer cozying up to the chef bar to watch all the action in the top-notch kitchen. The dishes are worth every penny, and the local wine list is hard to beat. An elevated lunch or high-end night out.
