About two dozen restaurants will serve food at tables set up along the street tonight through Monday. More eateries are expected to join in on subsequent weekends.
Dine Out(side) will run every weekend through September. From July 4 to Labor Day Weekend, it will include Thursday evenings, as well.
This is the second year for Dine Out(side). Started to help restaurants serve customers when indoor dining was banned or severely limited because of the coronavirus pandemic, the program proved propular, according to Dave Rucklos, director of the McMinnville Downtown Association.

Many area wineries and tasting rooms will host special events over the Memorial Day Weekend. A complete list of activities can be found on the Oregon Wine Press website, https://ift.tt/3p7BD4D
‘Not on the market’
The Mack Theater and historic Yamhill Hotel are not on the market at the moment, according to Gary Kerwood, who has been one of the managers of the properties since 1999.
The buildings at Third and Evans streets are owned by Anderland LLC. The firm’s principal partner, Gary Anderson, died Sept. 25.
Kerwood announced the former movie theater and 134-year old hotel were for sale, along with the adjacent Macy Building, back in March. The asking price was $2.3 million for all three, with an April 15 deadline for offers.
Earlier this month, he changed the theater’s marquee, which had advertised the sale.
“The (for sale) sign is down and it’s not on the market at the moment,” he said Monday, after saying several previous times that he couldn’t comment.
He suggested checking back with him in August, when he might have more to say.
What if a prospective buyer had $2.3 million in cash?
“I would gladly add to our list of interested people,” Kerwood said, saying that he’s keeping the list “in case the property does come back on the market.”
