We came here for breakfast this morning while staying at The Atticus. Highly recommend! All of their bread is homemade (and delicious) and the coffee cake we ordered was still steaming hot from the oven this morning. All the food we ordered was fresh and coffee was solid. The staff were all so friendly and sweet! Cozy, warm atmosphere - we will be back! read more

Wish we didn't live 3 hours away; these were truly amazing! Great service and wonderful food. A definite keeper! read more

Crescent Cafe - Crepes with scrambled eggs, provolone, bacon and caramelized onions drizzled with a balsamic reduction. O. M. G! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McMinnville, Oregon

Food was okay. Not horrible and not great. Very busy place and the servers were moving fast accept our waitress who seemed to have an attitude. My husband and I asked for onion in our scrambled eggs. I also asked for spinach which they offer a spinach salad so they have the ingredients. When we ordered the waitress said "NO". I said excuse me? She said "No we don't do that". First, her attitude and customer service skills are really unacceptable. She came back and said we can't add anything to your eggs. We prep for our meals and we just can't do it. I said okay I don't want any eggs. She huffed and briskly walked off. Not sure why. Then back with the food and my husband said my eggs don't have onion. Oh we can't do that. It went on but please don't say you can't toss some onion in the eggs. We travel all over and have been to thousands of restaurants. I've never been told NO we can't put onions in your eggs. I get it's hard to staff theses days but the attitude and rudeness should never be accepted. If she would have said I'm sorry our chef won't alter the way we prepare the food. He will only make as described on the menu. But instead NO and walked off. This made the experience uncomfortable and unenjoyable. read more

Crescent Cafe - Bacon, eggs and blueberry French toast - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McMinnville, Oregon

We liked the two dishes we got here at the Cresent Cafe. The French Toast was delicious, and the country fried steak was a hearty plate, if a tad underseasoned. Unfortunately, our experience was colored negatively by the table waiting system. We didn't mind waiting an hour for a table, but having to wait another ten minutes after the text that our table was ready was frustrating. It even interfered with our dining as others in the same situation were crowded by our table as we tried to eat. Again, the food was good, but the experience wasn't something we'd be keen to repeat. read more

Perfect place to start your morning! Service - 5/5: we arrived at 9, were seated right away (others waited for maybe 10-20mins). Immediately we were greeted with water and a list of the specials. Coffees and waters were constantly refreshed, food came out in 15 minutes. The woman who served was the sweetest woman, so friendly! Food - 5/5 I got the veggie hash with 2 sunny side up eggs and cheese. So savory and good! My partner got the egg special which had brie and sweet and spicy bacon! They make all of their own break and you get to pick! I got the buttermilk biscuit and he got the potato toast (it was massive!). Ambiance - 5/5 very very clean. Within minutes of folks leaving they quickly cleaned tables. Very cozy and cute vibe with pretty hand pairings on the walls. Very close to all the shops! Highly recommend! read more

I LOVE this cafe! The service is friendly and seems authentically happy. The food..wow, amazing! We've just been there three times now and Im so excited to go again. Everything my hubby and I have has has been wonderful! So many things I want to try AND they change up the menu from time to time so Im looking forward new things as well! read more

Love love love this place. The food is amazing, the servers are fun and personal, the outside ambiance is perfect and dog friendly and I am happy to give 5 stars! The place is bigger than you think so don't just walk on by. My new fav spot! read more

Pretty decent place. The breads are all baked on site. We had the pork belly hash and pork belly appears to be in many dishes off their menu. Wasn't use to the small pieces of pork belly though and they were a bit chewy. It's a pretty small space so expect to wait for a table and it appears to be pretty comfy of a space so folks don't seem to be in a hurry to give up their tables. read more

Visiting the area and we wanted a local place. Stopped here for breakfast and it was great! We got the ham and cheese crepe and the bacon and provolone cheese crepe. Large portions and very tasty. Quick and friendly service. Will visit again. read more

I love the breakfasts here. We have been several times and I'm never disappointed. Service has always been excellent also. It's a small place, though, so try to go in off hours/days. read more

On a recent visit to McMinnvile I had the pleasure of enjoying an excellent breakfast at the Crescent Cafe. This is one of those places that is so popular it COULD cut corners, and absolutely doesn't. Even the jam served with the AMAZING house made bread is from Alchemist's Jam (just around the corner!) . I really appreciate a great, simple, yet perfect, breakfast place. This is it. Staff was very friendly and worked hard to keep things moving along. read more

We have eaten here before and were very happy with the food, however today we ordered the pork bellly hash that took over 40 minutes and had cut up pork chop not pork belly. Our server was great and outside seating was nice that's were it ended very disappointed with food. read more

We spent the weekend in McMinnville and ended up eating breakfast here every day. The daily pastries are exceptional and the coffee is excellent! To top it off, super friendly and knowledgeable servers! Great job! read more

Everything you want in a neighborhood cafe. Friendly staff. Fresh baked pastries and wonderful food. Huge portions too. I had the special omelet with sausage, cheese and olives. Had to swap the bread out for a home made blueberry popover. Great decision! Omelet came with very large serving of hash browns. Yum! Wife had a half order of pancakes. Her 1 pancake filled the large plate. Everything was delicious. Service was fast and friendly and food was great! read more

Excellent food, servers. Very friendly environment. Food delicious although a bit pricey. But that is pretty much everywhere now.

Had an amazing brunch here! The restaurant is great with lots of seating, indoor and out. Everything is made from scratch here (including all of the bread) and it is really delicious. We had fresh squeezed orange juice and coffee which were both great, then got the breakfast sandwich and pork shoulder meatloaf per the waitress' recommendation. Both were outstanding and the homemade bread (cornmeal bread and English muffins) was incredible. The staff was lovely and service was great. We got a lemon poppyseed muffin to go and haven't tried it yet but very excited to! Apparently you can order bread on their website ahead of time, though they do sell some there as well. Overall great experience - would recommend and would go back! read more

We are locals and love coming to this cafe especially when we have guests in town. The service is on point, the staff are friendly and you always see a familiar face. The food is impeccable and I've never had a flavor pairing that wasn't pleasing to my palate. Today we are dining and the waitress asked the table behind us how they'd like their bacon cooked. If you choose not to dine her I'd say you're missing out. read more

POOR SERVICE AND FOOD. I was at the Crescent Cafe with a friend on Friday, October 11, 2024. The small restaurant was busy, and we had to wait 20 minutes. We shopped other stores, and returned after 20 minutes. We still ended up waiting a few minutes, as they were rather disorganized; one person not knowing what the other was doing. Unfortunately, the food was not very good, and service even less. We were ready to pay our bill, and asked the waiter if we could split the bill using our debit cards. He explained that there was no way to split the bill on the system. I mentioned how it would've been nice to have a sign posted for customers. He said that it was shown on the menu. We looked at the menu, and all it said was something like "we are unable to split a bill," with no mention of debit/credit card options listed. When it came time to pay the bill, we began to ask our waiter a few more questions on our options. He became impatient, and abruptly and rudely just walked away from our table My friend and I both looked at each other in shock, as we couldn't understand what had just happened. Within a few short minutes, a woman came over (whom I can only deduce to be the Manager), who began asking us about the issue with our bill. We explained that there was no complaint, and we hadn't even asked to speak with a Manager. We found it odd that she was automatically questioning us in a very defensive tone before hearing us out. All we could deduce was that the waiter went over and said something to make her think we had complained, when all we wanted were options on how to pay. We explained to her we hadn't complained but were asking for payment options. Perhaps the waiter was having a bad day, but to treat paying customers in such a rude, unbelievably immature, and ineffective way was sad. You NEVER treat people poorly just because you're having a bad day. We left a bit shocked, feeling verbally attacked by this woman (whom I'm assuming was the Manager). She didn't even act like she was listening to us. And honestly? All the waiter had to say to us was we could use cash to each pay separately--PERIOD. End of story. How hard would that have been?? But no, he had to make some ridiculous big deal out of absolutely nothing. I don't know who the owner is, but they need to have some SERIOUS words with their staff. Needless to say, I will NEVER step foot in that place again. Disappointing food · Slow service · Poor presentation read more

terrific breakfast and lunch food with cheerful friendly service. it's the kind of place every neighborhood should have. don't miss their French toast! read more

This place was amazing and the service was great. I had the special which was an egg scramble, I never knew eggs could taste that good... and the homemade sourdough english muffin with their homemade jam was AMAZING read more

YUM!!!! This place is so good! It's cozy, warm, the service is AMAZING, and the food is FANTASTIC! We got the Bacon and Provolone crepe, lemon crepe, and Rueben. The bacon and provolone was our waiters favorite, and there's a reason!!! If you only get one item, you need to get THAT! It's like a breakfast crepe, with scrambled eggs, bacon, lots of cheese, and onions. Plus this amazing balsamic on top! The lemon crepe is a delicious dessert, very sweet, like a lemon donut in a crepe form! I didn't try the Rueben, but it came with a soup (that changes every day I believe) that was a cream of sweet potato. Amazing! read more

It has Good food, great prices. It's the Best in town. McMinnville doesn't have many breakfast options but this one I'd say is the best option. read more

Food was great. I had the banana pancakes and my husband had the corned beef hash. We both recommend.

Generous portions of hot breakfast food. Try the bacon and provolone crepes, or the breakfast sandwich. Skip the pork biscuits and gravy. Unless you are a lumberjack, most entrées can be split between two people. read more

Delicious breakfast! Homemade coffee cake right from the oven. We also loved the homemade English muffins. Veggie hash and eggs done perfectly. Good , smiling service with plenty of coffee refills. Beats breakfast at our hotel restaurant across street by 500 percent, read more

This is a clean & pleasant restaurant. I didn't try the food since I thought this was a coffee shop and that was the main reason for my visit. I DID have a piece of coffee cake along with coffee, delicious. I was looking for specialty coffee, you know, like mocha & latter's, which wasn't available. The staff was very helpful & friendly, and they were very attentive. I may return for breakfast or lunch as their menu looks really good. read more

My friends and I walked down 3rd St (Main Street) on a sunny morning, trying to decide where to eat breakfast. We spotted the Crescent Cafe and saw a crowd. I always gravitate toward large crowds at bistros because the food must be good. And it is. The menu offers many delicious choices, the staff is super friendly, and the ambiance is charming. They played classical jazz in the background on a low volume. The chatter of the people is at a calming level. I'm a sucker for French toast, which is what I got. I highly recommend this place. read more

Yummy deliciousness. Don't skip the pastries! The meals are amazing but the best morsels come from the oven. Love the blueberry buckle & the danish. I'm f you go after 10 they're likely to be gone. The breakfast sandwich was a bit greasy, but I was not there to stay on my diet & it was so tasty. The bacon & cheese crepes are also a favorite. I don't think you can go wrong with any choice. The service is perfect & the atmosphere is cozy. It's fun to sit outside & watch the activity in town, too. read more

I wish all breakfast joints were this good. I ate here two days in a row on a business trip. Day one I had the ham and Swiss crepes and was astounded at how delicious it was for how reasonably priced it was that I knew I was returning the next day. The servers were kind and welcoming. That combined with the regulars in the dining room you will feel right at home. Day two I ordered the breakfast sandwich and again was pleased--not surprised, but very pleased. read more

Wow! You could tell this was the Cheers equivalent of a breakfast restaurant! Everyone was greeted by name, and all the employees were equally friendly and welcoming! Beyond the luxurious crepe options (bacon and caramelized onion was chef's kiss!), they had instrumental music playing that added to the ambiance. Also worth noting - Their "lavishmint" was epic! read more

Soooo cute! The service is over the top fantastic! And the food is delicious!! Definitely would come!

We were in town for wine event, my husband being very particular about food dining experience, we found this place close by where we stay in town. turns out the service is super charming and observant, food is excellent. so good we ate our breakfast there two days in a roll. oatmeal is very hearty yogurt with berry is awesome all fresh squeezed juice is a must cornmeal in anything is such a great comfort food. ambience music is right on the key for us, 80's music! pastries seem to be freshly made, nothing is bad, we had cinnamon roll, coffee cake, my husband has major sweet tooth so he's a great judge for these open face omelette with cheese, peaches and bacon, was something else! marionberry jam with molasses bread, pork belly hash... their coffee is good spot on, we are major coffee connoisseur so we found this coffee actually pretty good one thing- please serve filtered water , that will also improve the taste of all brewed drinks such as coffee, juice and any type of broth.. we both had such great food there, definitely return once we visit in town again read more

Not bad, but not a 4+ star experience. Bourbon vanilla French toast was good, but had barely a hint of bourbon and basically zero vanilla flavor. 2-egg breakfast was as boring as I've ever had it, but not bad - just bland. They asked how we wanted the bacon (crispy or leathery) but were unable to prepare it "firm" like I requested. Mimosa and greyhound were fine but not worth the cost. In fact, everything was overpriced for the quality. In short, not bad, but there's no reason for me to return. Not sure what other reviewers ordered, and maybe it really is the "best breakfast in McMinnville," but if so that's more an indictment of the otherwise charming city than it is praise of this mediocre food. read more
