We arrived around lunchtime, and got seated right away. Both the exterior and interior had a rustic vibe, with a wood stove and beautiful wall mural of the mountain. I started with a Hot Cider to warm up, which really hit the spot. My friend and I ordered the Chicken Parmesan Sandwich (daily special) to share, as well as a slice of the famous Blackberry Pie. The Chicken Parmesan Sandwich was solid, but nothing too memorable. The cutlet was a little thick for my preference, but it got the job done. The real star, of course, was the Blackberry Pie! The texture of the crust was perfect and the filling tasted delightfully homemade. We got it without ice cream since it was chilly, but I'm sure it's fantastic with a scoop, as well! They also had some cute local gifts for sale, and I snagged a bar of artisan blackberry soap. Service was friendly and quick!

Looking for authentic and delicious bagels, challahs, focaccias, tarts, and other sweet treats?…read moreThere is a fairly new vendor addition to the Mcminnville Grange Saturday Farmers Market that could go toe to toe with many of the more widely known metro bakers. The husband and wife team showed up several months ago and they are a welcome addition to the diversity of offerings available right here in the Willamette Valley. We sampled the bagels for the first time today and they could not be more perfect. Bagels are meant to be chewy and Cat and the Fiddle describes their bagels as "unapologetically chewy" and we applaud their honoring that time worn texture! Last week we sliced the Brie stuffed challah, which is round, toasted it in the pan and served a poached farm fresh egg on top - magnificent taste and texture. Finally for dessert the chocolate rugelach is a rare find anywhere, because it is labor intensive and the goodness lies in the quality ingredients and the skill of the roller. The Cat and the Fiddle serve to elevate these Jewish baking traditions. A worthy Saturday taste adventure!

It sits right in the heart of this tiny, charming town, surrounded by mountains in every direction, with a brewery right next door. Score!

And a special thank you to the sweet blond girl who stayed open a little longer for us.

They have fun little gifts as well as a good snack selection. You can also get ice cream here which is fun. We usually come by here to grab drinks for the cabin and that was the case again this time.

Overall this is a great little market stop if you're in need of some odds and ends when in Ashford/Elbe!

We came for the Night Market but only made it to the tail end. So we only had an hour. We were going to order food but they had a sign saying there is an hour wait. We just had drinks instead. The layout is fantastic. They have streams and ponds running through. Not to mention plenty of outdoor seating with fire pits and wood framed shade canopies. It was fun walking through the patio area exploring. Note!!!! Bring quarters to feed the koi!!!!!! I can't wait to come here again!!!!!

The whole place is mostly outdoors (there are some tables inside), but most options were outside. Either in the sun, tables with umbrellas, tables under shade structures and all in a beautifully landscaped garden with a little creek, mill, trees, shrubs and bushes. We had a flight of cider and the huckleberry was our favorite, super yummy. We also ordered the pulled pork tacos, small but delicious and the pepperoni flatbread. Everything was solid, so definitely would come back.

We went inside to order, and the bartender was super helpful in helping me choose a drink. They had two hard ciders available and he actually recommended I try a blend of the two to get the huckleberry flavor with less sweetness. I absolutely loved it! We also ordered Chips & Guacamole, which were solid. The highlight of our visit was when a deer wandered into the patio area. It really riled up the dogs and kids, but was such a cool experience otherwise. My friend later ordered some tacos, which she said were tasty, and they even had an ice cream stand on the premises. Overall, I really liked Packwood Brewing!

After trying several of their baked goods at local coffeeshops in Tacoma area, I discovered an…read moreopportunity from social media that they were having a pop up at their own brick and mortar baking kitchen, with collab with local coffee, Civic Roasters, a few months back. I know they do not have regular open hours for just walk in purchase, but rather, they're custom order type business, but I have yet to place any custom orders so I cannot speak to that experience. What made me write this review is how accurate the owner (Brianne) described cake and desserts in the description and the baked goods taste matched 200% of the description. The pistachio cake was out of the world, so was the whoopie pie!!! I got to meet Brianne in person and she was very friendly, and was kind to explain everything about each of her baked goods she had out that day. I've tried their baked goods from pop tarts to cookies to housemade Twinkie and the creation and taste are unmatched. Single serve baked goods were more on pricier side, but well worth every bite. I would definitely order custom baked goods from here, knowing the quality and taste of products from this shop!!! Currently, you can find Spilled Butter baked goods at Cosmonaut coffee, Outer Dark Coffee, and at Tacoma Farmers Market (also known as Tacoma Broadway Farmers Market) from time to time. Enjoy!!!

When I walked in, the first thing I noticed was the smell, and it didn't smell like a pie shop at all. It actually smelled more like Indian food. I love Indian food, so that's not the issue, it just wasn't what I expected from a bakery that specializes in pies. I was looking through the options and asked the employee what their most popular pie was, pretty normal question, I think. But the response I got felt rude and kind of condescending. I was told, "Everybody has their favorite, all items are popular," in a tone that just made me feel like I shouldn't have asked. I'm all for supporting local spots, but customer service really matters. That interaction alone made me feel unwelcome, that will be my last time going there.
