Hands down BEST BAR in town. The owners are wonderful people. The bar is gorgeous, classy, and edgy all at once. Each area is roomier than you'd think, *CLEAN* comfortable and the vibe is just right. Friendly down to earth old school Mcminnville with heart! I'm so HAPPY this place is here 💓 Thank you for a wonderful place to spend our anniversary evening for many years to come. So many laughs with excellent staff 👏 😄 🙌

Great food, portions, and prices. Top that off with friendly bartenders and eclectic atmosphere, it may be one McMinnville's most unique hot spots.

This is a new bar in town run by great local people and long restaurant and bar workers . The atmosphere is excellent . They play great music. Excellent cocktails. Good food and options with prices that are affordable. A super cozy place to hang out with friends or make new ones. Nice zones for conversation. It's my new favorite place for sure. Highly recommended.

Snacks are great. Drinks are great. But you come here for the people. Rama and Mark have made a place that feels like home... with local legends like Lexi and Megan behind the bar, and Josh and Bri in the kitchen... They have open mics and karaoke that are in a different room, so when the singer is good you can go listen, and if you don't want to listen you can go inside... best of both worlds... pool table... cozy corners everywhere... and all the local love. Make sure you check out the bathroom decor... in each of the bathrooms.

One of the treasures if you're exploring the Granary/Alpine District. 1109 has a lot of heart, in fact it is technically, logistically the heart of the district. I love it for the quality of the drinks and the atmosphere. They've done it up right so you're enjoying yourself in a place with some soul, charm and comfort. And the music is well curated, to say the least. It's hard to put your finger on it, but the place is just overall cool.

My husband and I love the laffette bar. We go for taco Tuesday, to see Megan. she's such a wonderful person so welcoming, personal. Fun, and real. We do love the decor and atmosphere. Its fun edgy, dark, and always good vibes.

After a disappointing dinner elsewhere, we decided to search Google for a nearby bar and came across 1109 Lafayette. What a fantastic surprise. From the moment we walked in, we knew we had found something special. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and full of character. The lighting, décor, comfortable seating, and unique details throughout the space create the perfect environment to relax, have a conversation, and enjoy a great cocktail. The highlight of our visit was Melissa behind the bar. She was absolutely amazing—friendly, knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what she does. Great bartenders can make or break an experience, and Melissa elevated ours from good to unforgettable. We also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Rama, who was incredibly sweet and kind. It’s always refreshing to see an owner who takes the time to connect with guests and make everyone feel welcome. The cocktails were outstanding. Beautifully presented, balanced, and expertly crafted. You can tell a lot of care goes into every drink that leaves the bar. Whether you’re a cocktail enthusiast or simply looking for a relaxing place to unwind, this is the spot. If you’re looking for a cool place to chill, enjoy some of the best cocktails around, and experience genuine hospitality, I highly recommend 1109 Lafayette. We will absolutely be back.
