Your Itinerary for the Girls’ or Guys’ Weekend in Newberg
If a getaway to Oregon’s wine country is calling, Newberg makes answering easy. Located less than an hour from Portland, this walkable town is full of experiences for those planning a getaway with their closest friends

Here are four must-visit spots to get you started:
- The Allison Inn & Spa – A world-class spa and hotel experience tucked into vineyard-covered hills.
- Wolves & People Farmhouse Brewery – Local yeast, estate-grown hops, and small-batch brews.
- Downtown Newberg’s Historic Core – Boutique shops, galleries, and wine bars offering endless variety and walkability.
- Ewing Young Distillery – History and handcrafted spirits on a scenic farmstead.
Girls’ Trip: Wine, Wellness, and Boutique Treasures
Treat yourselves to a day of rejuvenation at The Allison Inn & Spa, one of the country’s top luxury resorts. Wake up to vineyard views, enjoy a massage or facial, then unwind in the steam room and sauna before enjoying a mimosa or glass of wine in the lounge
Afterward, head to E 1st Street for boutique shopping in Newberg’s historic downtown. Stroll from Red Hills Boutique to Shoemates, Nikki Jane’s, Little Bird, Lauretta Laynnie, and Lineage, which are all within a half mile of each other and surrounded by cafés and tasting rooms.
Cap off the day with a picnic at a local winery. August Cellars or The Potter’s Vineyard & Clay Art Gallery offer picnic-friendly settings with memorable pours. Gusto Gastronomia Italiana offers picnic boxes to go as well as charcuterie. A tip from the locals: Don’t miss Dario’s fresh-made cannolis!

Guys’ Trip: Golf, Spirits, and Small-Batch Beer
Newberg’s wine is world-class, and the craft beer and spirits scene is equally worth raising a glass to. At Ewing Young Distillery, sip house-made whiskey and learn the tale of the 173-year-old oak tree that marks the grave of Ewing Young and the birthplace of Oregon’s statehood.
Next, head to Wolves & People for farmhouse-style beers where the brewers grow their own hops, produce their own sour cultures, and propagate wild yeast from their own fruit trees. Don’t forget a picnic for the latter: A takeout order from the Bite of Newberg food carts is always a crowd pleaser!

Book a tee time at Chehalem Glenn Golf Course, where 18 holes (or just a quick 9) deliver scenic fairways and relaxing competition. Prefer to keep it casual? The driving range and putting course are just as rewarding.
Before heading home, swing by Minthorne Mercantile, a new favorite downtown stop for premium menswear, accessories, and botanicals. You’ll enjoy their goods from USA-based brands focused on sustainable manufacturing and both style and quality that’s built to last.
Couples’ Weekend: Enjoy the Best of Both Worlds
Mix and match your favorite ideas for a shared itinerary full of Newberg’s best. In between tastings, spa time, and shopping, dive into Newberg’s vibrant Mexican food scene. Start with Dos Mundos for award-winning tacos, then toast the evening with authentic margaritas at Kopitos Cocina, where the elevated Mexican flavors and live music will make you want to sing along.

One Town With Endless Getaway Possibilities
Whether it’s a special reunion trip or an annual adventure, Newberg is full of the charm, flavor, and adventure to make your stay as memorable as the friends you spend it with. There’s something here for everyone to taste and enjoy.
