Wonderful atmosphere. Great service with kindness and attention. The food is really good. My favorite appetizer is the steak bites with the smoky blue cheese butter. Yum! I order a small bread platter to soak up all of that buttery goodness! We went there for drinks and appetizers and we got the steak bites, bread and burrata salad. A great combo. Sitting outside on the balcony is nice too. You get to enjoy the fresh air and the view. read more

1882 Grille - Steak bites, bread and burrata salad - American Near Me - McMinnville, Oregon

I was in the area for a family event and we landed here because they allow pets on the patio. It was our first time in the area and at this restaurant. I am told...They had great alcoholic beverages (said half of our party-not everyone had alcohol). The food was mixed reviews. 1) steak bites were delicious. Blue cheese butter is thebomb.com. 2) everything else was sub par. Burger was supposed to be med-rare, came out well done/jerky. Pizza was raw dough, not melted cheese and they pulled it "because the sides were burning." They could have put foil around it and actually cooked it. OR recommend we stick with regular pizza dough when we confirmed we don't have an allergy but was wanting a "lighter" low carb pizza. They also had an anecdote of another customer who ordered the cauli pizza but served them regular dough and it was a true food allergy and a problematic experience for the customer (??? Why would you choose to share that? lol). Tbh a nuked hot pocket will cook the cheese better than our pizza was. Salads were ok. Nothing to rave about. Desserts were ok I'm told. Didn't have any myself. I was done at that point. Service needs improvement. Not just weird PTSD patronage stories shared, but I felt bad dragging family out to the area so I tried paying without them knowing, slipping the credit card toward the waitress without everyone at the table noticing. And she knocked the card out of my hand when reaching for plates, announcing that "your credit card fell." I don't care if it was my bday or not I wasn't going to make my family pay for this meal. I would not come back and I don't recommend it. For everything it was ~$160 +40 tip which I feel salty about giving considering the quality of our meal and service. I'm a good tipper regardless of experience because it's the right thing to do/pay it forward, etc. but I was pissed driving home lol for $200 I could have picked up steak and lobster and cooked at home. read more

Truly, an incredible dining experience here! We could have ordered anything and everything on the menu and been thrilled. We enjoyed the steak bites, fondu, fresh house salad and some delicious desserts. Maybe best of all, the patio view and incredible service really made our evening. Will definitely come back again. read more

So glad I rediscovered 1882! I haven't visited in a few years--I can't quite remember why, but I am so glad I returned. We started with the calamari, and it was fried perfectly, sprinkled with Parmesan and garden green onions, and served with a spicy aioli dipping sauce. I was pleasantly surprised by how tender and flavorful it was! That Parmesan coating is delicious, and the spicy aioli is the absolute perfect accompaniment. For dinner on night one, we ordered the Teres Major steak (grilled to a perfect medium-rare), a Steak Salad, and a grilled chicken sandwich. Everything was incredibly delicious, and all of the ingredients were exceptionally fresh. Our server was friendly and attentive, even though she was super busy. The atmosphere here feels much more like a cozy bistro than a sports bar. I have always found it welcoming and comfortable, and they easily have the best outdoor rooftop seating in McMinnville.In fact, I was so impressed with the food and the vibe that I brought my husband back to try it the very next day! On our second visit, we ordered the Tavern Burger--complete with American cheese, butter lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion, 1000 Island, and an onion ring. My husband is notoriously picky, but he thought the burger was incredibly juicy and flavorful. A fantastic cheeseburger all around! read more

Totally recommend this place, a third floor dinning area. Everything made our experince a 5 star plus. Beautiful indoor dinning and booth seating if you prefer. Outdoor patio is open and airy. View of lighted trees and from where we were seated, view of McMenamins and Atticus Hotel. Staff was welcoming and friendly. Noah our waiter recommend other places to visit. Kaira the hostess made us feel comforable and looked after us. Ceiling heater and a blanket was even offered. The 1882 cocktail a must. We had a late dinner and no stress about taking our time to enjoy our meal. Complements to the chef(s) who made our meal perfectly cooked and seasoned. My husband and I shared the NY steak and Salmon entrée. Skipped dessert to purposely come back another time. read more

I am so happy I found this place when I was in town for one night! Location was great! Service was great! The drinks, the food, the atmosphere were fantastic!! I started my meal with Ketel One rocks and their steak bites appetizer with a smoky blue cheese butter. Delicious! Then I ordered the roast beet salad with a yummy red blend wine. They went together perfectly! When I told the hostess how much I was enjoying everything, she went and got the owner so I could let her know. It was a great experience after driving for six hours. They are located on the third floor with a large patio, which is where I ate. I wish them much success and if you are in the area, I strongly suggest you check them out. No pictures posted because of some sort of glitch with my computer. sorry about that read more

This restaurant is located in an old building on the top floor. It requires an elevator ride or long walk up the stairs. The service is good and so is the food but the portions are very small and the prices are too high for what you get. By way of example a bowl of clam chowder is very good but the quantity of food is only 8 ounces or so. It is really a cup of soup. The chef does a good job with the food but the pricing doesn't make sense given the serving sizes. read more

Great ascetic. Indoor and outdoor parking. Tried the French onion sandwich with sweet potato fries. Coming back for the tequila flight. read more

We stopped here after an afternoon of wine tasting. They are pet friendly, and as crazy as this sounds, that includes cats. My friend brings her two British Shorthairs everywhere, so this narrowed down our choice for a meal. The owners treated us with smiles and pets for the cats, clearly remembering them from a prior visit. The other diners were quite fascinated and also gave the kitties lots of attention. Since we had a charcuterie board at the winery, we ordered simple appetizers and burgers. Next time I'll get the burger which was quite good; my steak bites were cooked past well done and I just couldn't eat them. The sweet potato fries were excellent. Menu is typical pub fae: burgers, fries, sandwiches, mac&cheese, pizza, steak, wings. Located right on Main Street, the restaurant is on second floor. Lots of light, a variety of booths and table and seats along the bar. read more

A grilled cheese shouldn't be difficult. We were the *only* guests in the whole restaurant, and it still took more than 20 minutes for a sandwich and mac & cheese. And when is arrived, it was completely burnt. (This was the less burnt half) The server was kind and offered see if they could re-make it, but we weren't excited to wait another 20+ minutes. At the end of the meal, we were offered a free dessert or a credit for our next visit. We declined, and the item was taken off the bill. (We still added the full amount back into her tip, because we aren't asking for a handout - the meal still cost them something) Hoping these items can be addressed and others will have a better experience than we did. read more

They sure know how to "present" their dishes. That added a little touch that made it so pleasing. For breakfast I ordered deviled eggs from the sharable menu. Best ever! The eggs were soaked Pinot wine and beets which gave it a pinkish color. Then it was topped with mustard seeds and pickled watermelon rind. The blending of these foods was amazing. And yes I did have this for breakfast with their rosemary potatoes. Service was over the top and very comfortable setting. read more

Best sweet potato fries I've ever had. The 1882 burger was pretty fantastic, too. I highly recommend 1882!

We went upstairs to the rooftop, but sat inside at the bar, they had the World Series on. The bartender was nice enough. We enjoyed a glass of wine and my girlfriend had a martini with cinnamon and cranberry. It is on the main drag in McMinnville. read more

Sooooo good. Amazing view. We relaxed and enjoyed dinner. On the pricey side. Two adults about $100

Wow! I told my wife let's find another place for lunch due to the low score here (3.3 on 7/17/25) but she doesn't usually believe the scores. Once again, my Better Half was right! The third floor space and ambience was great. All three employees we encountered were very cheerful and professional. And the food was as good as we'd expect anywhere. We both had house salads and they were extremely fresh. My wife added salmon on hers and was very happy about that. I'm a sucker for sweet potato fries and they were some of the best I've ever had. (My wife usually doesn't like them but she stole some!). Oh, and my wife ordered a French 75 cocktail and it's the best one she's ever had. We will definitely come back! Even the men's restroom has a great view! Sorry, ladies, my wife says not the case in the women's restroom. Ha ha. read more

A couple of people recommended this restaurant so I had high hopes. The atmosphere and view are great. The menu was OK. I chose the Grille Burger, and as they had mashed potatoes on the menu, I asked if they could do that for the side. I was pleased they offered a gluten free bun. But that's where the fun kind of ended. The burger was average to mediocre. Nothing that special. The bun fell apart halfway through. The mashed potatoes were the smallest, thinnest, most flavorless potatoes ever. The glass of wine was fine. Service was OK. Efficient and prompt, but not that friendly. Walked out feeling disappointed and wishing I'd chosen a different restaurant, with as many choices as there are in McMinnville. Maybe I caught them on a bad night, but I wouldn't try again. read more

Service was great! The pineapple margaritas were so good, cheeses bread and 1882Burger. Everything was delicious. Loved the interior aesthetic. We went during lunch time, it was nice and quiet but I'm thinking of coming back during dinner time, I'm sure it gets busy. All staff were very friendly and attentive. read more

Beautiful rooftop seating! With a lot of delicious sounding options, I didn't know what to order. I finally settled on the Mac and cheese, and it was delicious, so rich I couldn't finish the last bites. The clam chowder is very seasoned, which makes it a little spicy-not my jam but others might like it. read more

The staff was amazing Especially Claire bear at the bar but all the people working there were very welcoming and fun. Can't forget about the ninja warrior waiter. The steak and shrimp were very good but I am not a steak guy so I guess I was disappointed because I didn't get what I want because I'm indecisive. I would love to come back to McMinnville again and I would definitely eat here again. My friends said their steak was amazing so maybe I should have given it 5 stars read more

We have been here several times over the years. The service is always great. The general manager is always walking around checking in with the guests. Everyone is great. It gets busy and crowded and loud during peak times. But in good weather the outside is wonderful. The food is usually on point. We used to get the bread but the last 2 visits it was different, dry and dense. The cheesy bread and shrimp skewers are bomb. The house salad is one of my favorites. The sandwich selections is minimal. They used to have a BLT that I miss dearly. They also kept their meltdown sandwich on the menu for a while, but sadly it was taken off. My go to is the Cubano pizza, it's one of my favorites, their pizza dough is so good, a little salty in the best way. My husband tried the ribeye tonight. He ordered it medium and it came out well done. But it was flavorful and juicy anyway. We have ordered a Long Island iced tea twice and both times they were not good. read more

Stopped in to have a late lunch on a Tuesday so it was not busy at all. The food was great but a bit on the expensive side. Our server was very friendly. We got the cheese bread appetizer and it was a whole pizza. Don't get it if you're not super hungry! It was very filling and paired with our entrees, we were taking home some left overs. I got the 1882 signature sandwich and didn't know what I was expecting but definitely not an open faced sandwich filled with French fries and smothered in cheese sauce. It was tasty, but too much bread/carbs for me. read more

Was mine and my husbands first time here. We were celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary. The waitress/ Server Cindy was AMAZING. She went above and beyond to make our night special. Would 100% recommend this place. The food was great too. I got a veggie burger and my husband got the mushroom beef burger and both were cooked perfectly. I would recommend getting the berry mocktail. It was delicious read more

So disappointing. We came here in July for my husband's birthday. The food was mediocre. I ordered the buffalo Mac n cheese. It was definitely not. I would describe it as a creamy buffalo penne pasta. Not Mac n cheese. The cheese bread with marinara was really good. Probably the best thing we got. When we got there it was warm inside. Almost uncomfortable but not until the food got there we all started sweating. The manager even admitted the thought about not opening because of the heat. They should have went with that idea. read more

We havent been to 1882 since before COVID, but not much has changed except maybe the prices are higher. I wish I could rate the food and the service tonight, separately. SOLID 5 stars for great service, best we've had in McMinnville since COVID. 3.5 stars for a decent enough burger (Bacon, Mushroom, Blue Cheese). But NO stars, zero, for soggy fish and chips, and bad coleslaw - this is my go-to pub food so its so disappointing! Decent draft beer menu brings the average up around 3 stars. read more

Very nice place to dine and just relax. Food choices are varied and nice. Portions could be a little bigger and joined with a side. Drinks were awesome. Service is a 8 out of 10. Still growing but they will be better soon. Yes, I'll go back again. read more

The location has so much to offer including having rooftop/outdoor seating and being right next to an amazing wine tasting room. Given the experience we had at the tasting room I was pretty disappointed with 1882 overall. Tables were sticky, the music way too loud, and the food not worth the price. I'll start with what was good - the Cuban pizza. The crust was fresh and tasty and the toppings had great flavor. However, the rest of the meal was pretty hard to eat. The Teres Major steak was basically burnt, dry and lacked flavor. The veggies it came with were doused in oil and made them inedible. Same with the mashed potatoes - oily. Can't say I'd go back after this experience unless it's to go get pizza which seems a safe option. read more

A beautiful old buildings with lots of ambiance. The food is delicious with a good variety. The service is always top notch.

This is the perfect sunny day spot. They have a large outdoor patio that offers a choice of sunny or shady spots. My friend and I shared a salmon sandwich with sweet potato fries. It was the perfect amount of food for the two of us.  My only gripe is our server was not the friendliest. Not sure if she was having an off day, or she knew that because we were sharing our lunch with no drinks, that she thought it would be a small bill, with little tip. Had she given us good service, we would have given her a good tip. Her loss.  My only gripe is that our server was not the friendliest.

Not even the pizza had a vegetarian option. read more

The views of the restaurant are great, being on the top floor and getting a view of McMinnville is really cool. However, the food was really nothing special. My boyfriend got the lasagna and he said it was very bland. My chicken wrap most likely had prepackaged chicken, as it was really dry and lacked flavor. The fries were not salted so I didn't eat any. read more
