We’re a wine country restaurant sharing food with heart in historic downtown McMinnville, Oregon.

Grounded Table—formerly Humble Spirit—is the culinary home of The Ground in downtown McMinnville, offering a casually refined, farm-driven menu inspired by the rhythm of the seasons and our regenerative farm just down the road in Carlton. Grounded Table (formerly known as Humble Spirit) is the culinary home of The Ground, located in the heart of downtown McMinnville. Opening in 2022 and renamed Grounded Table on July 1, 2025, the restaurant reflects The Ground's regenerative ethos through a casually refined, farm-driven menu that follows the rhythm of the seasons and draws from the bounty of our nearby farm in Carlton. Guests are invited to experience the story of the land through their senses, allowing each dish to be a connection to the farm's roots. At the helm is Culinary Director Chef Sarah Schafer, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, whose three-decade career spans Gramercy Tavern, Irving Street Kitchen, and Cooperativa. Since joining The Ground in late 2023, Schafer has brought her soulful, ingredient-centered approach to life at Grounded Table, deepening the relationship between farm, kitchen, and community.

For more than four years, Grounded Table and The Pub haven been welcoming guests on 3rd Street in McMinnville. We’ve served over 120,000 people, shared food grown on extraordinary local farms, and built something that drew national attention to McMinnville, including Chef Sarah Schafer’s 2025 James Beard Award Semifinalist recognition.

Now we’re writing a new chapter.

Regular restaurant service at Grounded Table and The Pub will continue through Friday, November 20. After that both spaces will remain available for private events and ticketed experiences.

We’re not leaving McMinnville or Yamhill County. Our Stillwater Event Center, our catering kitchens, Park & Main, and The Ground Market continue to welcome you.

To our farm team and hospitality staff, thank you. Your skill and care shaped every plate and every evening. To our community, thank you for pulling up a chair, again and again.

Please reserve your table at Grounded Table or stop by The Pub any time before November 20. Let’s make these final weeks memorable. Come for one more favorite dish, raise a glass with the people who made these rooms feel like home, and help us celebrate what we’ve created together.

It was very good Sunday at the Pearl District Culinary Market. ✨

Chef Sarah joined the market for a little Thanksgiving turkey demo — breaking down a whole bird and talking through turkey confit, turkey roulade, and how to make the most of every part.

And because talking about food is only half the fun, there were samples: a DELICIOUS no-waste turkey sandwich, plus Chef Sarah’s infamous butterscotch pudding for good measure.

Huge thanks to Kimiko and the Pearl District Culinary Market for having us out! And if you missed us Sunday, you can find The Ground at the market regularly with vegetables from our farm, eggs, pasture-raised meats, pickles, and yes — jars of that butterscotch pudding. 🌱

Good things start in the soil.

Our Heirloom Beet Tartare celebrates what’s growing, with horseradish crème fraîche, tender greens, mustard vinaigrette, and cured yolk. Vegetables at the center of the plate, right where we like them. 🫜

There’s something about the smell of hay that takes you somewhere. 🌾 (And there’s just something about mini donkeys that makes us smile 😊 )

Chef Sarah Schafer and Brenda Smola-Foti, Chief Farming Officer at Tabula Rasa Farms, talk about growing oat hay, the nostalgia wrapped up in its unmistakable scent, and how it found its way into Grounded Table’s Oat Hay Tart.

Our roasted and shaved beet salad is all color, texture, and contrast.

Earthy, sweet beets, tangy sumac yogurt, Oregon blue cheese, toasted hazelnuts, and fresh farm herbs.

Good ingredients matter. So do the relationships behind them.

We sat down with Ben Jacobsen of Jacobsen Salt Co. to talk about Chef Sarah’s approach to food—her creativity, her deep respect for ingredients, and the way she lets each one tell its own story.

We’re pretty lucky to cook with salt harvested right here in Oregon—and even luckier to call Ben a friend. 🧂
