This place is huge! Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon on the way home back to PDX, was very quiet, but I could see it getting a lot of business over the weekend. Pool tables and video poker and lots of tables and an outside area. The bartender was very friendly, quiet at first but anyone who has been following us for awhile knows my bf knows how to talk and he talks to anyone and gets them going. I took pictures of what we had, both were decent. The tacos a little greasy but then again, that is not the restaurants fault, most certain it's just the product, I have had those at home before and still very greasy. BF had the corned beef sand (cold) on sourdough, and nothing was left, so I guess it was good? Overall an interesting place with an interesting view. Will be back soon we hope! read more

Horrible service and ok food. Had some food played some video poker. Had twenty dollars on a machine and tipped the chair and had a smoke maybe ten minutes. Come in chairs back money's gone. Lady we know next to us says bartender took your money. Asked bartender where's my twenty dollars. Says I took it out you were gone a long time. Ten minutes is not a long time. Nasty woman wanted to argue with us about it. Figured we'd get kicked out. Won't be doing anymore business with this place they obviously don't want the business. Hope she liked the $5.00 dollar tip on $65.00 bill. Look at the rest of the reviews on this place. Lot's of one Star reviews mostly about the owner but the skinny bartender is no better. read more

So I'm just gonna say it flat out I went in there to gamble and that bartender lady is for sure intoxicated cause she was super disrespectful in front of everybody told me to leave. I started walking out and she started following me calling me names by the way, I'm super flattered didn't bother me. None I turned around and said a couple things back to her a little fire under her ass, I was a little entertained by it. But I would not recommend this place to anyone specially if you're a dude and you're gonna bring your wife in there and you don't like people talking a certain way to your wife this lady's straight up C word. I unapologetic say this I have the upmost respect for most people and I do give respect first, but this lady was way sideways. She should've been walking sideways. That's how bad it was. Anyways, good luck. The only positive thing that happened was I put put in 80 bucks and I won 250 Oh, and another negative I tried to get the bar owner's number and all this other stuff and she wouldn't give it to me. Now on to more important matters everybody have a good day. read more

Start with the surly and rude short stocky Asian lady at the bar. I walked out today due to her attitude and demeanor and am never going back. This is not the first time I've encountered this wretched behavior from her. Teach her some manners and grace! She's slow to wait on the customer and only seems to do it begrudgingly. Damn. I was hoping to visit here on a regular basis. I just can't see putting money on the bar, always with a good tip by the way, just to be treated so poorly. I encourage the person or people who are considering supporting this place to go somewhere nice instead. read more

I don't know why Jae's gets such a bad rap. My family eats dinner at Jae's at least once a week. The owner and staff are always very friendly. We have never had bad service. The ambiance is sports bar/ video poker lounge. The crowd seems calm. We like to sit at a table near the bar so we don't have to be distracted by the video poker machines. The menu has a lot of choices we love the Ruben and the chili dog. Both are excellent and consistently delicious. The cocktails are excellent and affordable too. read more

The owner, bar tender is rude, does not want people in there... kicks people out cause she assumes things that are not true!!!!!

Went to the beach for the day, came back to town to get a drink and was told I would be served for smelling like weed by the Asian lady. I can 100% say that was not the case. I had another friend with me who has been there many times and cannot smoke due to her job. Very disappointing. It's 2025. read more

Always consistent food. I really like this place. It's super chill and it has great food. It takes awhile for the staff to warm up to you but that's okay since it is a bar. Best chili dog in McMinnville by far can be had at this place. Also try the Rueben if you like Rueben's. This place has a sports bar vibe and the ambiance is like a neighborhood bar. It's a winner in my book. read more

Woman bartender is always SO RUDE. really feel like you're inconveniencing her by being there to spend money. I had a couple beers so I had gotten up to used the bathroom a couple times, one of the times she CUT ME OFF ON MY WAU TO BATHROOM AND ASKED WHY I KEPT GOING. she also kicked us out for playing go fish with cards at the table. This women needs to retire. read more

This is a nice bar, large, several lotto machines, several pool tables, darts, beautiful scenery out the back side. THE BAR TENDER IS THE PROBLEM. She has such attitude. From the moment we ordered she was full of attitude. She didn't like the fact that I was looking at her cameras which are in the open. when we ordered our 2nd round of drinks and asked if she could remake one of the drink for us cause it was not right she had SO MUCH attitude and refused to remake it or make something else. Her response was well that's how we do it here. SHE IS JUST REALLY RUDE!! It's too bad cause it's a good size bar and has lots of potential It seems as if a lot of people have experienced the same thing. read more

Absolutely amazing service every time I have been here. They are always so kind. Definitely a great place to stop by if you're in town.

Best service ever!! I love coming here and having amazing talks with Aylih!! Highly recommend coming here and the outside seating is such a plus in the summer nights! read more

I visited Jae's for the first time tonight to play pool and I had one whisky, one beer, followed by one plain Pepsi. The owner of this establishment was unreasonably rude. At first she came off as not very friendly, fine, we all have off days, but she progressed into downright hostile. Everything had been fine as far as I had been concerned, my friend and I had been playing pool, though after visiting the bar, he complained that the owner had smelled weed, assumed it was him, and was treating him poorly. My friend is a distinguished engineer at a large corporation, is extremely intelligent, is a trusted colleague, and most certainly was not smoking weed while we were at Jae's playing pool. We continued on with our night, I finished my Pepsi, and I went to collect the motorcycle helmet that I had stowed behind the bar. Without a word, the owner pulled out a box with my helmet sitting on top, dropped my gloves on the floor, looked me in the eye, pointed down, then walked away. I mentioned to her that I hadn't seen her smile since I came in, the only words I had spoken to her the entire evening mind you, and she absolutely flipped. "Because I'm a woman, because I'm Asian, why don't YOU smile? You stupid, you racist, get out, I'm calling the cops. You so stupid, you so stupid, get out NOW!" There were then a couple young regulars? that proceeded to surround me, I guess to protect her?? They were trying to force me to leave while I was putting on my jacket. "Put your gear on outside! Get out of here!" I was utterly bewildered. I tried to remain calm as I suited up, I told her I would never be back, and I left. This was my first visit to McMinnville, on invite of a friend that lives in the community, and this experience left a terrible impression. I know the town has some cool offerings, but Jae's is absolutely, 100% NOT where it is at. Try anywhere else but here. read more

Never got the food I ordered Togo after waiting over an hour. it was not busy. it all seemed fine until the bartender figured out I am gay. I called and the owner did not care at all. It's 2024, you took my money and did not give me what I paid for! that's theft! read more

Hi, Me, my wife, friends and family come to Jae's all the time and we have always been treated well & the food is fantastic! It's slower earlier in the day and gets busy later on if it matters to you. Just like any bar you see all walks of life. Really don't understand some of the comments I've read. I recommend for all to try. Thanks Daren read more

Jae's Landing - Chicken wings and chicken strips and fries. - Bars Near Me - McMinnville, Oregon

Service was not great. Asked about specialty house drinks and bartender looked at me funny. She been there for many years, an she claimed doesn't know any specialty shots. So just ordered something on Tap. Went to play pool and accidentally hit the ball at the bottom to which made it bounce up and off the table by mistake. This is when owner happened to walk by and said you break window you buy. Window thin for people like you. I apologize to her said it was an accident and she just walked away. I don't recommend this bar to anyone. There's more bars in mcminnvile with much better customer service. This was final time I go to Jays. They ruined the second chance for me to go. I give it a big thumbs down read more

so terrible! kicked out once we wanted to play pool. the owner is terrible. Complete bitch. There's was no reason to kick us out. Plenty of time before closing. We were respectful....good luck to this bar! Lmaoooo read more

The Asian lady behind the bar is horribly rude. She refused to serve us but could not tell me why.I know I wasn't drunk because I just got there. She got real defensive when I asked if it was because I'm brown / Mexican and proceeded to raise her voice and threatened to call the police. I was just trying to find out what I did that was so bad. I never raised my voice or stood up from the bar stool. I am a grown adult and I carry myself as so. I love McMinnville and the people here. It's just sad that there are Racist people who feel entitled and treat people that way. read more

This place is a neighborhood bar. It's huge, slot machines, pool tables, food, full bar. Outdoor patio. Plus a view of the creek, on occasion you can see the deer pass thru. Unfortunately, you don't feel welcome here. The barmaid is not friendly nor engaging. It has so much potential. I wish someone would buy it & turn it into something amazing. We need something on this side of town. Great location. Locals would truly appreciate any upgrades & friendly staff. read more

I wish i could leave even less than one star. I wish i would have read yelp reviews and avoided an offensive and embarrassing scene. I did not get to try any drinks or food so i can't comment on that. I'm not from mcminneville and haven't been to Jae's before. I got off work on saturday evening and stopped in at about 5pm, my first thought was it seemed weird that a bar this size was empty on a saturday evening. When i asked for a drink the bartender took one look at me and told me i had to leave immediately. She was extremely hostile, gave me no explanation for her behavior. In my surprise i must not have moved fast enough and she actually chased me around the corner to the door yelling at me to "Go! Go right now!" I have no idea what was going on with her until i read these other reviews and I'm starting to get the picture. Can someone please take this building under new management, it would be a nice spot. I am still shocked that any place open for business would treat people this way. For context i wasn't wearing shabby or offensive clothes or doing anything wrong, i just came from work at a professional job. They should put up a warning that normal people can't order a drink at this bar at 5pm on a saturday. Just incredibly embarrassing for the owners of this business, just close it. read more

First time there and the owners wife cut me and my group off after 1 drink with no valid reason. She has HORRIBLE customer service and I will never be going back there! And this would be a 0 star or even - star if it was in option. Absolutely horrible customer service!! read more

Owner is extremely rude and childish. She causes scenes for no reason and ruins the vibe for everyone. She flipped out on a friend because she misheard him and thought he called her something else, made a scene and started going around the pool table's saying "last game" even though there was 45mins left till closing. read more

I wish I could give 0 stars. The bartender lady is such a BITCH, I ordered 2 drinks for me and my friend . About 30 min later we were trying to order a couple more and she said 'I don't feel comfortable serving you' lol it's 7pm and we were gambling , minding our business ... I made sure I let her know I'd NEVER return to this bar again. read more

Went to play some pool with some friends and the server argued with us when we told her we were just playing pool and weren't planning on buying any food or drinks. Then they turned the music up so loud that we couldn't hear two feet from each other. When we asked her to turn it down just a little she stood there and argued with us then proceeded to bring the other patrons in on it. She had an attitude with us the entire time we were there. We weren't trying to start anything and decided to leave after the rack we were on to avoid any further issue. read more

The worst bar to go to in Mac. Couldnt even order a drink, the woman behind the bar was so beyond rude and made it so uncomfortable to even be there. read more

Stout drinks with a chill bartender. One of the only 2 bars that I go to in Mcminnville. There's a couple deer that like to chill in the back too. read more

Jae's Landing - The entrance lol - Bars Near Me - McMinnville, Oregon

I was recently in Jae's for the first time ever. The owner was completely rude from the moment my friends and I walked into the bar. She allowed my friend to order a long island, and I casually said "may I please get the same as him" and was cut off before I even had 1 because according to the owner I "was drinking somewhere else", however that was the first bar I went to throughout the entire night and it was a Friday, and I was completely sober. The owner then proceeded to watch our group suspiciously for the all of 10 minutes that we were in there before we felt uncomfortable and left. You'd think a completely dead bar would want 5 people to order drinks on a Friday rather than be made to feel as though we were not welcome there. The owner should not own a bar if she gets angry at 5 people on a Friday for simply walking into the bar. She clearly has anger issues and should not own a business let alone a bar. Overall horrible experience for my first time there. read more

So extremely rude. We came for my friends birthday planning on just playing pool and enjoying our time. We called ahead asking if they were open/how long and got a very curt and short response like we were stupid for calling ahead-- many places have the wrong information online. Anyway... we walk in, seeing open pool tables and getting excited to spend time with friends shooting pool and focusing on our friend. We came to the counter and a woman looked disappointed as we entered. I understand that maybe she had other things to do but asking for service seemed pretty reasonable. My friend asked if there was another bar as it is a large space and I stated that this was probably the only one. The woman expectantly asked for our identification and sighed as well as reached for our identification. I simply asked her if she was upset that we had arrived and she said "what? Do you expect me to dance upon your arrival?!" I said no... and she shot back with that she would not serve us and we could find another place to enter. I was shocked. I had never been treated this way in my entire life and wanted to make McMinnville a home for me. I will never recommend this place to my friends who visit or new people who move here. They need new management and people who know how to be simply respectful to their customers. I would NEVER recommend going here and will sufficiently spend my time in my professional career telling people my experience and recommending ANY ANY ANY OTHER place to go. read more

Great food drinks and atmosphere. Love this place! Is a great place forsure. Hade a great time and come in regularly for lunch and drinks read more

I went into this place last night with my service animal. As soon as she seen him she told me I had to leave that she would not serve me! I couldn't believe it! She actually stood across the place yelling at me to leave. I was mortified and extremely embarrassed! WORST PLACE EVER! read more

I really wish I could give zero stars or even negative stars at this point would be great. The establishment itself is great and deserves much better owners. I was kicked out for having my certified service animal with me which is not only super illegal to do but she literally turned the music off in the bar and then proceeded to walk straight up to me and my husband and told us to get the f*** out of her bar or she was going to call the police. We did absolutely nothing to warrant this we ordered our drinks and started to play a game of pool and kept to ourselves we were completely sober and not causing any type of issues or ruckus to cause such a uproar of anger and discrimination from this horrible woman. I really would not recommend coming to this place unless you want to be literally bullied and harassed by your bartender/OWNER for absolutely no reason. read more

The owner of this place is by far the most rudest person I've met in the bar business. No personality, been in there twice now, first time tried striking up conversation with her.. but she couldn't be bothered.. gave the place another chance last week, once again bar had maybe 4 people in it. Owner rude again.. shane because it could really be a great bar to hang at especially on patio but not worth it. It's a shame when other people at other bars say the same about this place.. cool bar terrible owner no people skills read more

Rad sports bar. Watched game and had many beers on tap. Aylih is definitely not a bitch. Love her. Awesome place. Come here.

The owner was so rude it was my first time going on my 21st birthday and I didn't have a mask so I went to ask the bar tender for one and she started going off on me saying I was stupid for not bringing a mask, have never had someone talk to me that way and she refused to give me a mask so I just left. Definitely never going there again read more

Beautiful place with decent food.. If the owners wife wasn't so grumpy I bet this place would be packed. She's not friendly to out of towners read more

Came to watch the Oregon game and we loved the bartender. It was nice to visit with her. Didn't try the food but enjoyed the drinks and atmosphere. read more

Customer service was terrible. The bartender was rude and did not ask if we were separate WHICH WE WERE , and he refused to do two types of whiskey in two SEPARATE old fashioneds. $9.50 per drink for two improperly made drinks. Seltzer does not go in an old fashioned, if you don't know what's in it then you need to say that. Not make it wrong and be rude about it. Come here if you want bad service and the wrong drink. read more

This could be a really awesome place to hang out, it has all the potential! Leather couches, tons of seating, a huge bar, pool tables, jukebox, tons of space to move around, huge covered smoking area with tables, etc. So many wonderful things about this place! However, I can't help but feel that the owner is the reason a lot of people don't return...she gives off a really cold, unwelcoming vibe. I mean, it's a bar for goodness sake! You don't want to feel like your bartender is secretly judging you while you're trying to enjoy yourself. I've met a few other bartenders here, and they were all super cool! But I'm not crazy about the owner... read more

Went here for the first time. Lady bar tender I'm assuming is the owner was so very rude from the time I walked in the door. She told us we had to ask permission to sit down play machines and when my son proceeded to stand up practicing social distancing of course he was asked to sit or leave. He then told her she should probably watch her tone when she speaks to customers she lost her shit and not only kicked him out but me and my husband who truly said nothing . When I was cashing in my ticket she proceeded to talk badly about my son I simply said he is a grown man if you have a problem with him you have to take that up with him I am a paying customer who has done nothing wrong she then proceeded to scream at me and told me to get out. I have a feeling if you're not a regular at this place you probably shouldn't bother going.a couple that was sitting there witnessing it actually told me it took them for years before she started treating them nicely. Very very sad I would never recommend this place. read more
