Making a return was worth it! The idea of refilling on popcorn has failed. Extra-large is no joke. Colossal! Tapped out almost immediately. The theater was overall clean from the lobby, restrooms, seats, etc. Most of the staff were easy going as well. On a negative note, it was a bit hot in there. Lack of air conditioner!

However, we need to talk about the pre-show hostage situation. I brought my 5-year-old to see Toy Story 5. The ticket said 11:40 AM. The movie actually started at 12:06 PM. That is 26 minutes of commercials and trailers. It is blindingly obvious that whoever programs this theater either does not have children, or actively harbors a vendetta against parents. Do you know what 26 minutes feels like to a 5-year-old who has already consumed half a bag of overpriced popcorn? It is an eternity. It is the length of an entire episode of Bluey. I watched my child age two years, cycle through the five stages of grief, and nearly de-evolve into a feral state before Buzz Lightyear finally graced the screen. Cinema executives constantly wring their hands in the media, crying, "Why are theaters dying? Why is streaming killing us?" Allow me to solve the mystery: We are paying premium ticket and concession prices just to be forced to sit through a half-hour infomercial marathon before the product we actually paid for begins. If I wanted to pay top dollar to sit in a dimly lit room and wait for half an hour for something to happen, I'd go to the DMV. Clean place, sweet people, but next time, I think we'll just stay on the couch.

We've generally had great experiences with the Coppola wineries, but unfortunately, Inglenook fell…read morea little short of expectations for us, mainly because of the tour guide. The tour itself was beautiful and informative, but our guide talked way too much at times, which made the experience feel a bit drawn out. There also seemed to be some noticeable favoritism toward guests who came from Toronto, which was a little odd and made the tour feel less welcoming for everyone else. That said, Inglenook itself is absolutely beautiful. We really enjoyed the little café and the museum, which reminded us of the experience at Francis Coppola Winery. The property alone is worth visiting and makes for a lovely setting. One other thing that stood out to us was the late-arrival policy. The website specifically states that guests cannot be late or they won't be able to join the tour. However, people who arrived more than 15 minutes late were still allowed to join our tour. We have no issue with accommodating late guests, but if that's the actual policy being followed, it would be better to update the website so guests aren't unnecessarily stressed about arriving on time. As for the wine... I'm still not a fan of red wine. We did, however, find some white wines we really enjoyed and ended up purchasing a few bottles to take home. Overall, Inglenook is a gorgeous property with some nice touches, but our tour experience could have been much better. We've enjoyed other Coppola winery experiences more.

We will continue to attend each year provided the weather cooperates. This year (2026) I loved the gnomes, but I was a bit disappointed with the artist talks on opening night of the festival, as the gallery venue was very noisy and the artists were mingling with guests in the gallery when we arrived. There was a mic set up and I would have preferred that the artists done brief presentations on their exhibits with the mic before they mingled. The event felt a bit chaotic and my group left quickly when we realized that the artists were not doing formal talks. We enjoyed walking along the river to watch the sunset instead near the lighted art exhibits!

The projection was reflected onto First Presbyterian Church, the four fundamental elements of cosmogony--Earth, Water, Air, and Fire. Holding Dance by Wendy Yu, was equally beautiful.

It's that "You either like us or you don't, but let's chill anyway!" vibe and I'm here for it. There wasn't a single wine I didn't appreciate, and I was pleasantly surprised that the chenin blancs stood out as something I may come back for before heading home in a couple of weeks. I can certainly see myself back here with my book and a glass before my vacation ends. Each taste was subtle yet present on the palate, each of which I'd love with a dish of anything!

The staff was super nice and friendly, chatting with us while we sipped on our wine. Just know, this is more of a taproom vibe, so you're not going to see the whole vineyard or anything, since it's downtown. I'd recommend if you have some time to spare while in the area.

It's simple: go to the market, purchase a prepaid tasting card (we did $25 split between 2 people), and enjoy a rotation of 24 wines ranging from 2oz to a full glass. Each wine is priced differently and range from $2 a taste, to $20 a glass; which is an INCREDIBLY great deal for Napa! Try wines anywhere from Napa & Calistoga to France & South Africa. The person who helped us at the Marketplace (where you buy the card) was so helpful and nice. She even let us know you can grab a glass and walk around the premise. We ventured to the culinary museum upstairs and observed some students prepping for a big event coming up. I can only imagine taking a glass outside to the garden during the summer! Just bring back your glass! If you're looking for a do-it-yourself kind of wine tasting, look no further! Love it here and can't wait to come back!

Here's why you'll want to go to Wine Bar at Copia:…read more * You have no interest in seeing or interacting with anyone; * You want to sample wines not just from the Napa Valley but from regions as far away as, say, Israel as well; * You don't need anyone trying to sell you more than just a glass of wine nor do you wish to hear anyone wine-speak; and finally * You have a good board game/card game/novel to write and you'd like to undertake that venture in a quiet, nice environment while drinking wine. Sitting across the parking lot from the uber-popular Oxbow Market, Copia is a wholly different experience. What it started as didn't work out, then the Culinary Institute of America (CIA) moved in, and what's there now is evolving at a snail's pace. This might be the most low-key place in the whole of Napa Valley. Literally, there is a ton of space, indoor, outdoor, and upstairs and now there's a self-serve wine bar featuring upwards of 20 wines. The drill goes like this: go to the gift shop at Copia and purchase your wine card ($25 or $50) then walk over to the Wine Bar at Copia (15 seconds away) and use that card to select and pour wines of your choice. There's nobody here checking up on you or checking in on you and, if your experience is like mine, you will have to yourself (if you choose to stay in this space) a very nicely appointed space in which to do pretty much whatever you desire. I had just come from a winery wine tasting before landing here so I failed to use up my $25 credit but now that I know it's here I'll be back to do so. Sometimes avoiding the crowds is desirable and if that's the mood you're in, this is the perfect place for that.
