We were heading to visit family in the area for dinner and were asked to bring dessert. While…read moredriving through Stayton, my wife remembered The Lovin Oven from years ago. We also recalled that there was some connection to Gerry Frank's Konditorei in Salem, which immediately caught our interest. After doing a little research, we discovered there's a deep and fascinating history linking the two businesses. The Lovin Oven began in 1983, when founder Doreen Helmemn operated the bakery out of her home. In 1993, the business expanded into a small storefront in downtown Stayton after being purchased by Mike and Valerie Schultz. Mike, who was formerly a logger, was personally taught cake decorating by the original founder, an origin story that adds to the bakery's charm and authenticity. One of the most interesting details we learned is that The Lovin Oven is the primary baker for Gerry Frank's Konditorei in Salem, a partnership that dates back to the 1980s. That relationship grew even stronger in 2017, when the Schultzes became co-owners of the Konditorei. Many people enjoying desserts at high-end restaurants throughout the region may not realize that their cakes were baked in Stayton. The Lovin Oven is especially well known for its Champagne Raspberry cake, Marionberry cheesecake, and an impressive variety of gourmet bars and cookies. Their menu also includes cakes, cheesecakes, cinnamon rolls, brownies, cupcakes, and more, something for just about every dessert preference. The bakery itself is housed in an industrial-style building that includes the production bakery, a storefront, and a small seating area where you can enjoy your treats on site. The outside is a unique with a black painted brick exterior. The customer facing area of the inside is industrial. We picked up a selection of cupcakes to take to dinner and were quickly back on the road. The cupcakes were a hit, everyone loved them, and they disappeared fast. It felt great to share something local with such a rich backstory. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we're glad we stopped. If you find yourself passing through Stayton or looking for high-quality desserts in the Willamette Valley, The Lovin Oven is absolutely worth checking out.

I picked up a peach pie to take home to the family, and it was the perfect treat after a day outdoors. I also enjoyed lunch and tried the basic turkey marionberry sandwich and WOW, so good! I would honestly go back just for that sandwich alone. Such a perfect way to end a day of hiking. I'll definitely be back!

May 2026 Oregon…read more Driving from Bend, Oregon to Newport on the coast saw this place and it had good reviews and decided to drive 10 miles out of the way to come here. You order your food at a counter in the back of the store. The open dining seating is in a different room. You go and get your food when the buzzer goes off. The buzzer is obnoxiously loud. I ordered a chicken salad sandwich comes with a pickle and a bag of chips. My husband ordered the pot pie. We both had a slice of pie. I chose a strawberry rhubarb and he chose the cherry. The chicken pot pie was very good. Had lots of fresh vegetables from peas to carrots, green beans, and potatoes. It was a good size for lunch, but a very small portion if it was your main meal. The grapes were large globe grapes, and they were firm and delicious. The chicken salad was delicious. Large fluffy croissant and the chicken salad had celery, chunks of grapes and onion. It comes with a bag of chips and a pickle. The pickle was large and crunchy. It tasted like a specialty pickle not one you would get at a typical store. The cherry pie was not the best. The crust tasted different than the crust that was with the strawberry rhubarb. It almost had a cinnamon taste. The strawberry rhubarb was fantastic. The crust was very dry, but the filling was delicious. My only complaint is the staff is not aware of the ingredients that are in the menu items. I first ordered some thing and told them I had an allergy to meet and they told me I was OK ordering the corn chowder. After taking a bite and getting an allergic reaction, they then check the book and find out it has bacon. There also was a cross-contamination with nuts. Overall, I would give this place 4.3 stars

Admittedly, we had the place almost entirely to ourselves - I guess a lot of folks headed to the Oregon State fair in Salem on this hot vaporous day. So thank you wine God for an outstanding private wine tasting experience. Amanda led us down a path of whites leading into reds, with a rose' or two in between. Not a bad wine along the trail, with a few exceptional examples of flavors that Bachus would be proud to call his own - white and red blends with Sauv Blanc and Malbec leading the charge. 10$ wine tasting fee per person - waived with a 2 bottle purchase per person.

You feel like you're inside a pizzeria in Brooklyn. We ordered the The Grandma and a Pepperoni. The pizza was crispy around the edges, but soft in the middle. For everyone but me the grandma was the favorite. I personally loved the pepperoni. The pizza was overall good, not my all-time favorite, but a solid 4 out of 5. The owner was awesome and the atmosphere was great too. When we're back in Independence (we love Independence) we'll definitely be back for another pie or two.

With so many great options for food in the area, I got a little anxious checking Yelp, but I am so…read moreglad that this is one of the places I decided to stop during my limited time here. I primarily chose this spot because they have a really nice outdoor patio area so I knew I would be able to sit with my dog and eat and enjoy the weather. What I didn't know was that it had Salem spelled out in colorful letters in the front which made for an awesome photo opportunity. I was really excited to find that. When you walk inside, it has this really bright, colorful, unique decor. There is something interesting to look at no matter where you turn. They offer free samples which I really appreciate because it personally makes it easier for me to decide what I want and it definitely encouraged me to buy more cheese! My favorite sample was the queso cojeda enchilado. It had a rich tangy flavor. I ended up ordering a torta with some chips and grabbed a few different salsas from the salsa bar to try. The food was good and I couldn't leave without buying some of their smoked Oaxacan cheese to take with me. Let me tell you, it only lasted me 2 days. I wish I had bought more. As I was buying the cheese, I saw a family enjoying some ice cream cones and I had to try their ice cream as well. This place has everything. I got a cone of the Oregon mint and honestly I think it might be one of the best flavors of ice cream I have ever had. It was so fresh and flavorful and I was actually sad when I started getting to the bottom of the cone. If you're an ice cream person, you have to try it. They also gave me a card for a free game of bowling at Northgate Bowl which I thought was a really neat bonus. I wasn't in the area long enough to use it, but if we had been staying longer I definitely would have tried out the bowling as well. This is exactly the kind of local business I want to support. It's warm, welcoming, and most importantly, all of the products that they are putting out are fresh, delicious and made with love.

The manager, I believe her name is Carissa, would benefit greatly from training on how to treat both customers and employees. Her attitude has come across as rude, dismissive, and unprofessional every time we've been in. Watching the way the staff operated under that kind of management was uncomfortable and honestly embarrassing. Our server, Angalina, appeared to be nodding off or falling asleep mid-sentence while taking our order and while explaining the specials. On top of that, we watched her leave the bathroom without washing her hands, which is completely unacceptable and a clear health concern. When our pizza came out undercooked, we decided not to send it back because, at that point, we no longer trusted the food handling practices. The salad looked decent, but after everything we witnessed, it was hard to feel comfortable eating there at all. There may not be many dining options in Aumsville, but the cafe down the road has excellent salads and a much better overall atmosphere and there's always Figaro's for a pizza!

I was originally going to sit in the dining room and pay full price for what I wanted, but my dining partner suggested Happy Hour. That was the best move we could have made. All of the food was priced at $10. Some of the portions were slightly smaller than the full dinner sized portions. Dulce was our server. She was very nice, but there was a period of time where I wondered when she was coming back. Other than that, she was perfect. I ordered the Happy Hour Bentley's Mac and Cheese, the Bentley's House Salad and the Pork Belly tacos. I enjoyed all three entree's. The Mac and cheese was really good. The bacon dust was small bits of bacon, which I liked. I loved the flavor of the pork belly tacos. I felt the tortillas could have been warmed more so they would have been more pliable and less firm. The house salad was delish as well. The restaurant is set up nicely. I loved the fire pit. The lighting is perfect and the other staff I encountered were very nice and accommodating..
