Okay, one
more (at least) about McMinnville, Oregon!
The downtown is a great place to hang out. McMenamins is right downtown along with
Wildwood Café and some of the other great places we love to go to when we are
visiting….here are a few of the other “musts” when we are in town:
First –
Cornerstone Coffee Roasters – really good coffee, better marionberry
scones! The atmosphere is homey and
warm. Lots of tables and they do soups
and sandwiches too.
Second –
Boersma’s – Quilt and Knit shop – it’s a huge store, upstairs, downstairs, main
floor and the yarn shop is across the street next to Wildwood Café. I lived there 16 years and took up quilting
after I left – boo hoo!
Third – The Sage
– great little spot for soup and homemade bread. Their broccoli cheese soup is the best! Their pies and cobblers are great too. I used to meet my mother-in-law there for
lunch when I worked at Linfied College.
Fourth – The Red
Berry – wow – a great “little” shop with so many cool things, I can’t list them
all. They started out as a small little
place on 3rd Street then moved to a different location – we were
very happy they were back downtown with a large shop below The Sage.
Fifth –
Oregon Stationers – such a great store, so many things from office supplies to
chocolate. I have to go in there to get
my fix of Twila’s English Toffee. Yep –
that package didn’t even make it home!
Well, if you
have time, you might want to look around Found Objects and get an ice cream
cone at Serendipity, or go shopping at Harvest Fresh. Ah yes, so many
great places – not enough time!
No, I do not
work for the McMinnville Chamber of Commerce, or the McMinnville Downtown
Association – I have been accused of it before. McMinnville just makes me smile!
