The Bay House brings a remarkable legacy to its new home in the Willamette Valley. After more than four decades on the Oregon Coast, the restaurant reopened in May 2025 in the heart of Dayton, inside a beautifully restored historic church on the town square.
Proprietors Steve Wilson and Maureen O’Callaghan have transformed the space into a dining room that respects its history while embracing elegance. Known for its world-class hospitality, The Bay House is one of only four AAA Four-Diamond restaurants in Oregon and has received The DiRōNA Award of Excellence since 2024.
In the kitchen, Executive Chef Nathan Bates leads a collaborative culinary team focused on elevating farm-fresh ingredients through careful technique and restraint. Dishes reflect clarity and balance, allowing quality and seasonality to guide each plate, supported by attentive, knowledgeable service.
Tickets are $250 per person. A menu will be released ahead of the dinner.
