    Outstanding! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Delightful flavorful breakfast in a very unassuming cozy building.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very close to center of town. Get there early for all their yummy breads.

    Grilled cheese
    Kelsi H.

    On a road trip through Oregon, we were pleasantly surprised by this gem! We came around 11:45am on a Thursday and the place was not crowded at all. They have a TON of outdoor seating, but plenty of places inside as well. I got the grilled cheese with the fried egg. So good! It came with a side salad almost and I was very grateful for that. It's hard to get in veggies while traveling. I also got an iced lavender honey latte and an oatmeal cookie and neither of those disappointed either. Love all the LADIES that I saw working in this space and the environmentally friendly choices they're making. #girlpower

    The cappuccino was excellent

    One of the many coffee shops in Ashland - we stopped by for a pick-me-up this morning while walking around town. There is a lot of outdoor seating and we made ourselves comfortable, then ordered snacks and drinks. The cream-filled powdered donut was a hit, the chocolate chip cookie was tasty but a bit dry. The chai was bland, so we shared the excellent cappuccino instead. Will try other coffee shops rest of the week - there are certainly many to choose from.

    Italian Sandwich
    Kayla B.

    Really loved Hither. The food was fresh and baked goods were delicious. Staff was friendly and food came fast. The drinks were also great. My opinion is that the winners are the bakes goods so anything you order with a fresh bakery item will win you over. Left not feeling too heavy and the perfect amount of satisfied- [[HIGHLIGHT]]outdoor seating is a bonus in this summer sun.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would come again absolutely for a quick bite

    Fried chicken sandwhich
    Robert E.

    This place was recommended to us by the salon across the street. They said it has a coffee house vibe but really great food--a little more expensive but worth it. And they were right. We could hang out for a few hours and work then grab some food. I had the fried chicken sandwhich. It is crispy, moist, and hot with a sweet and spicy sauce. Also, instead of lettuce, it has a hardy green... I think it was chard. The one downfall is that it was super messy to eat, and the bread fell apart. It became a fork and knife sandwhich--oh well. The fries are also really good. If the price isn't an issue, this is a go-to staple in ashland.

    Drinking some superb drip coffee here, al fresco.
    Wendy B.

    When you see Wendy has returned twice to the same place within a few days' span, you know this place has impressed. The first day started with indulging in a fancy brunch meal, a rarity in my life these days. But in Ashland, frankly you'd be a fool not to make time for breakfast. This town is a brekkie heaven. Our order was called The Monster Dish Combo... probably enough to serve 3. This includes a beautiful, light and fluffy Dutch Baby, with a delicate lemony flavor. This comes with a small carafe of maple syrup. The Dutch Baby was the star of the show. Wish they would offer it as a solo item. They did not at the time of our visit. But this was not all. Gently cooked, fluffy scrambled eggs and several slices of good Bacon (and normally sausage, but they were out) were somehow piled on the same plate. But wait! There were 3 nice sized chunks of fried chicken (breast) too, prepared with a delicate, flakey breading, lightly sweetened, spiced with a sprinkling of red pepper, but not spicy. Last but not least, they found room to adorn the plate with a light salad made from local greens including peppery arugula, with parmesan. Nice touch. This combo is not for the weak hearted. Bring a friend, and anticipate still having to bag some to go home, unless you have consciously saved up for the eating frenzy you will have to invoke. Great drip coffee with free refills. Puff brand from Portland. The bathroom is somewhere inside. Not sure where they hid it, because indoor is one tiny room with maybe 6 tables to accommodate 12 people, plus the counter for ordering, plus a full view of the fast paced activity in the kitchen. The remainder of the dining is outdoors, your choice of a brick patio, open deck, or a deck under the trees. It's pleasant, as long as the weather cooperates and the predictable smoke from summer forest fires don't ruin the air. In spite of its informal ambiance, the cloth napkins, real tableware (no plastic here) takes your experience up a notch, closer to "classy". Order at the counter, but your food will be delivered to your table. Navar served and checked on us frequently. Excellent service!By the way, there are happy chefs in that kitchen! Impressive. Our second visit, it was their grilled cheese tartine with fried egg, and herbed, fluffy egg on toast that won my heart. Throw in a side of their delicious a side of bacon, and some of those great, freshly baked cookies (oatmeal or chocolate chip!) and a piping hot mug of their hair-curling dark roast coffee. We have found nothing to complain about here. Their other baked goods look pretty tempting. We so enjoyed their good food, we tried to hit them up again, yep, a third time, only to pick the day they had an unexpected closure. Such sadness you cannot imagine!

    Wild Mushroom Tartine
    Marty T.

    Shared a slice of cake with my friends at the table on a Saturday brunch on New Year's Morning. Wild mushroom tartine was great, I believe there were chanterelles and maybe oyster mushrooms in it, and I look forward to ordering fried chicken next time, a friend shared theirs and it was amazing.

    Herbed Eggs, Biscuit Sandwich, Mocha. Cinnamon Roll in the belly and not in photo.
    Susie R.

    Sooo good. We'd be regulars if we lived here. I had the Herbed Eggs and it was ridiculously yummy. I took a bite of my husband's egg sandwich and that was very delicious, too. The mocha was tasty and served in the cutest handmade ceramic mug. The cinnamon roll was the best I've had. I want to try more. Yum! The employees were friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They definitely pay attention to the quality and details -handmade dishes, solid utensils, gorgeous wood tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Eggnog Doughnut
    Ethan G.

    My wife and I were traveling through Ashland and looking for Breakfast - we stumbled into Hither on a Sunday morning as the team was prepping Holiday bags. There's a small retail section as you walk in, kitchen to the right, and some seating to the left (as well as outside). The retail items were extremely well curated and high quality. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and offered menus. This place is more of a quick service restaurant feel (place order at counter, they bring food and bus) but you can tell the staff are professionals. The kitchen looked great and the menu was well stocked. Ordered the breakfast sandwich and herbed eggs for the meal. The staff were just finishing eggnog brioche doughnuts which we added for a dessert. The quality and service was great - would recommend to foodies traveling through the area for great food in a relaxed ambiance.

    Fried chicken bowl
    Emily B.

    Absolutely phenomenal food I didn't even know I liked fried chicken and theirs is like the best thing I have ever put in my mouth. And their greens are so good and the eggs are always cooked perfect and the coffee is just on point. Oh and the elderflower mimosa I got today too was exquisite [[HIGHLIGHT]]I also really appreciate the beauty of the ceramic plates and bowls they serve on too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I only like to eat out if I'm eating good quality intentional food and I am so grateful for Hither.

    Michaela R.

    Hither never disappoints! Every time my foodie friend from Portland comes to town, the only MUST GO place is Hither. We both got the herbed eggs- chef's kiss! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service is kind, and the place is so cute![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If we adventured out to other food options, I am confident they would also be delicious, but we can't venture out from the delicious herbed eggs on focaccia. The caramel mocha latte with oatmilk was also divine. The caramel had rosemary in it, which might have balanced out the sweetness, but it was not overwhelming at all. As always, we will be back!

    As an experienced culinarian who already thinks highly of the place, I decided it was time for…read morewifey & I to return for a visit and report back. This hidden gem is beautifully perched on a 31 acre estate vineyard with plenty of parking. It boasts sweeping views of Ashland, plus the surrounding mountains and valley are always breathtaking. Upon entry, a welcoming host lead us to our table, where I found myself captivated by the intimate, "al fresco" setting and jazzy live music playing, as we took our seats on the terrace. Overlooking their cultivated, extraordinary grapevines in the distance, we learned they've been growing them for almost 20 years now and their wine operation has been producing classic vintages that encapsulate French, Italian and Spanish heritages for almost as long. The main, multi-story building and climate controlled barrel cellar resembles an Italian basilica, complete with Campanile tower, gracious decks, balconies and an artistic Galleria that looks into the immaculate tank room. As we settled in, we were excited to begin the experience of tasting their food and pairing it with some great estate wines. The gourmet restaurant offers an elegant fusion of world-class wines and seasonal cuisine, creating a truly unforgettable culinary journey. Under the guidance of Head Chef Alfredo Nava, his kitchen brigade takes pride in sourcing the freshest, locally grown vegetables, fungi and fruits from the Rogue Valley. This important detail was refreshing to hear, when considering the current standard for many restaurants is sourcing ingredients through Sysco or other broadline food distributors. Belle Fiore's menu is appropriately condensed to two pages, but offers something for everybody. From appetizers, a house-made pasta special, flatbreads, salads, mains, a vegetarian (GF) option and daily desserts made from scratch, I think you'll find a satisfying choice. For our meal, we chose the bruschetta on a fresh baguette to begin, with a flight of refreshing whites. Then our mains arrived in timely fashion by our attentive server and I was happy to see well plated dishes coming out hot from the kitchen. Colorful, generous and composed, all looking very appetizing as set gently before us. I had the pork porterhouse, pan-seared and roasted, then topped with preserved cherries over a layered slab of potatoes "au gratin", with steamed garden vegetables on the side. The 1" thick cut was perfectly cooked (not dry at all) and was as juicy as the tart cherries that balanced the rich meat well on the palate. Wifey had the filet of beef and happily shared a few bites with me. Honestly, it was the best entree of the night and the finest steak I have tasted in years. The tender filet was rare-mid-rare with a caramelized crust, topped with Rogue Creamery blue cheese crumbles for a little funk. Plated with roasted potatoes, steamed asparagus spears and sautéed wild mushrooms in a delicious demi-glacé, fortified with deep wine notes. I would go back tomorrow just for that dish. Both of our mains were paired with a flight of robust and jammy estate reds. Even though we were pleasantly stuffed, we had to try their cheesecake croissant dessert, just because it sounded interesting from the server's description. The beautiful slice arrived with macerated berries and a big scoop of pecan ice cream on the side. Unfortunately, I thought it could have been better (we make killer cheesecakes at home) and suspect it had been in the fridge for too long. Even though the flavors were sweet, bright and creamy, the texture suffered from being too dense and doughy. That said, we left for home without any complaints and felt amply served on a gorgeous evening out together. Thus I'm leaving this as a 5-star review. The fine flavors were there, the wine complement each dish and the value seemed properly measured. I would say it's well worth the drive from anywhere in the valley. Truth...

Sorry, just trying to describe the maze of hallways, stairs, chandeliers, oil paintings, and overly proper decor that you have to navigate to get there. I'm not sure what all that real estate is used for because only a small part of it was the active restaurant. Just keep following the signs. Once arrived, there's a beautiful view of the vineyard, nice cover from the sun, live music, and a pretty extensive dinner menu. This isn't some flimsy "light refreshments" affair. We opened a bottle of one of their blended wines. I don't know much about wine tasting beyond copying how my neighbor swirls the glass, mumbling about "tannins," and sensing a definite tone of "old books and leather." Long story short, the wine was pretty good! For dinner, we got an assortment of foods. Everything was serviceable but not terribly memorable. The steak was the highlight dish and melded beautifully with the sauce and sides. The service was more hands off, but attentive to our needs. This is a solid 4 star spot that I'll definitely revisit as a local. Great meeting spot to bring friends and family to enjoy outdoor dining and delicious wines.

Also had the happy hour fried chicken and hh burger, as well as the scallops off of the main menu. The burger was thick and juicy. My kids and husband said the fries were some of the best they've had-crispy exterior and soft interior. Fried chicken had a light crispy coating on the outside and the honey Aleppo mixture was great, though son said it could've used a little more salt. My scallops were some of the best scallops I've ever had before--so well cooked and perfectly seasoned and with these thinly sliced snap peas that were just barely blanched that added texture and freshness to the dish.

As a chef at two James Beard-winning restaurants, a server, owner, and consultant, I have dedicated my life to the food industry and the people within it. I'm from Ashland, and I was so happy when places like this started showing up in my hometown. Good food and atmosphere can be so hard to find. Coming home to Ashland can be a true oasis for my family. My wife and I have made it our life's mission to make our daughter feel equal and included. Our daughter was born with a rare condition called AMC and does not have normal function in any of her limbs. She currently spends 3-4 days a week in physical therapy to continue building strength so her body and organs can function properly. We were visiting family at the park and suggested stopping in for a beverage and snacks to escape the heat after a long day. We typically plan everything ahead to ensure wherever we go can accommodate my daughter's wheelchair and needs. When we arrived, we thought, "Wow, perfect, she can wheel right in and up to one of the many open tables." Once we were "greeted" by the host, I realized we were not who she wanted to deal with. Three kids, three adults, a stroller, and a wheelchair. She looked like she wanted nothing to do with us, like we were dirt on her shoe. "No reservation," she said. I replied, "Yeah, so sorry, we figured since it was a Monday night right when you opened, and there were only two two-tops seated, we could probably find somewhere to sit." I reassured her we would not stay long enough to impact reservations at the larger front tables, which usually have reserved markers on them but did not at the time. We could all feel that she didn't want to seat us, and we left despite me practically begging to make something work for us, because I know she could have if she wanted to. Being from the industry, I understand what kids can do to an atmosphere, and I know a lot of restaurant workers don't enjoy dealing with other people's children. But when we went outside and my daughter cried and said, "They didn't want me there" So I loaded my daughter's wheelchair back into the car so I could carry her up the stairs at Brickroom, where one employee was working the entire place and took amazing care of us, I might add. We resorted to a booster seat for my daughter since she couldn't use her wheelchair there. She ended up falling out of the seat and slamming onto the hardwood floor. She cried and was embarrassed. The young man tending bar while also waiting every table rushed over with a bag of ice to comfort her. It was honestly touching how kind he was. When we left Brickroom, we had spent more time there than we originally intended to spend at Bar Juliet. As we walked back by Bar Juliet, we noticed the restaurant was still only about half full, and one of the large front tables had remained open the entire time from around 4:10 until 5:40 when we walked by again. I had to stop and ask the host why she couldn't have seated us considering that table never filled. Her only explanation was, "Our kitchen is slow getting food out." Such an incredibly weak excuse. I hope she understands she was wrong and that she made my daughter feel unwanted simply because accommodating us wasn't convenient for her. I have never left a review in my life, but I was so saddened and disgusted by this experience that I felt I had to.

The ambiance alone is great for spending time with your bookstore purchases. The service was friendly and quick.

They were a little warm for immediate drinking so maybe specify if you want your beverage less than normal hot for kids. The cocoa also had a bit of a cinnamon flavor to it.

We can't remember what this drink is called but it's not on the menu and has some Mai tai mix and orange bitters ... like a mock Mai tai spritzer. Delicious - Randy had two! I got the mushroom bolognese - so good. It's home made (!) bucatini pasta with a mushroom (cremini, oyster and shiitake) and san Marzano tomato sauce with burrata on top. I love mushrooms but Randy does not and he loved this dish. The mushrooms taste meaty. Randy ordered the Carbonara again and it was also delicious. We also got an order of garlic bread this time and wow. We each have half of our dinners left, lucky us. We shared the creme brûlée which came with a lavender short bread cookie. Perfect. Everything was perfect. The place was packed and all employees were calm and efficient and friendly. Can't wait to go back!

    TL;DR: the service and menu are inconsistent. Some nights really good, some nights not. Mistakes…read morewere made by multiple aspects of the restaurant and a member of our party who communicated very clearly that she has Celiac was served a dish with bread. I truly want to like this restaurant, but I have had some really mixed experiences. The ambiance is very nice - it can get a little loud in the dining room, but the tables are comfortable, the lighting is appropriate, and the decor is interesting. The wine list is phenomenal and the reason I brought friends on my most recent visit. The menu is really hit and miss. There are some dishes that are excellent (some things even sell out before the evening is over), but unfortunately, not all. The hostess is absolutely wonderful - she is charming and funny and really has a talent for making you feel welcome and appreciated for dining with them. Unfortunately, the service is really hit and miss. On my last visit, the waitress really didn't seem like she had time for us. She didn't take the time to explain in much detail about menu items or the wine list. She didn't participate in any banter with us or really make us feel welcome. She seemed rushed, which has not been my experience with service here in the past. My biggest concern, though, is about the efforts of the staff and kitchen to keep items allergen-free. The restaurant advertises itself as a place that is Celiac knowledgeable and friendly. We made it clear in our reservation and to the waitress when we sat down at the table that one member of our party had Celiac and needed to be strictly gluten free. All seemed well and we ordered two appetizers marked as gluten free on the menu. One of those appetizers was served with bread. After the food had been delivered, the waitress must have noticed the issue and offered to have the kitchen remake the dish. We agreed (she left the original plate on the table and in the end we were only charged for one, so all good). The re-made dish was brought out, with bread on the side. There should not have been bread at all, it was very confusing. All in all I would return one more time and hope to have a different experience, but if that experience was the same as my recent one, I likely would not return.
