"It’s understandable that most of the restaurants in Oregon wine country maintain some focus on wine, but sometimes you just want to drink something else. Tucked slightly off McMinnville’s main drag, Conservatory Bar is Isaac and Kelley Mabbitt’s spot for playful, easy-drinking cocktails. A mural of chanterelles and fern-printed wallpaper serve as a backdrop for a simple menu of sandwiches, bar snacks, and drinks. The bar has seating indoors and out." - Emily Teel, Rebecca Roland
