A Culinary Gem in the Heart of McMinnville Dining at Hayward is an unforgettable experience that showcases the best of Oregon’s bounty. Chef Kari Shaughnessy and her talented team craft a menu that is both innovative and deeply rooted in the local terroir. Their dedication to sourcing hyper-seasonal ingredients from nearby farms ensures that each dish is fresh, flavorful, and reflective of the region’s richness. What truly sets Hayward apart is their masterful use of fermentation and preservation techniques. From house-made pickles to fermented cornbread with black pepper lardo and meyer lemon, the layers of flavor are both surprising and delightful. The menu is a living entity, constantly evolving to highlight the freshest ingredients and the chefs’ creative inspirations. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between sophistication and warmth, making every visit feel special yet comfortable. Whether you’re indulging in their “Kickback” tasting menu or savoring a la carte offerings, each bite tells a story of passion, community, and culinary excellence. I’ve celebrated birthdays, weddings, friends and so much more here! Hayward is not just a restaurant; it’s a testament to what happens when local sourcing meets culinary artistry. A must-visit for anyone seeking an authentic and elevated dining experience in the Willamette Valley.
