They sell curated food products from gourmet balsamic vinegar, crackers, popcorn, flavored olive oils, jams, and of course. We decided to try the bourbon latte and white rabbit. They have a variety of flavors but the bourbon latte caught my eye. Me not realizing that it felt like summer outside during springtime, we ordered both drinks hot. Sidenote, the drinks do come iced as well. In addition to our drinks, I bought lemon curd jam and rosè jelly. There was only one person working when we were there but we didn't wait long for our drinks which was a big plus. Aside from that, the bourbon latte was very tasty and I loved the fact that the bourbon syrup wasn't too overpowering. Next time I go, I'm definitely getting it iced. Napastäk is definitely a gem and I recommend stopping by to visit if you're in the area. If you love taking picturesque photos, this is the perfect place! They having tasting too!

I noticed there were other reviews of the staff being rude and I wish I listened). There's always rumors about napa being racist/prejudice so it's hard to feel like I can't get good service if i'm not blonde and pale especially from a cashier who is also a person of color...She seemed to be so preoccupied with other matters instead of..her job? Worst $11 of my life. There's not a lot of great matcha places in all of 707 (Benicia, Vallejo, Fairfield, etc) and this experience had to be the most expensive and least inviting..with the least flavoring. It was straight milk with a dash of matcha. I asked for caramel and I taste nothing.

I had to wait a bit for my uber in the wine tasting side and it was definitely a different experience. I overheard a gentleman offer free wine to many patrons but never once to me. He can tell I purchased quite a bit in the store as I had a huge bag. I was the only black person there my whole two hours in the establishment but I truly hope that's not why I was ignored. I would have loved to fast their wine, too.

They press their own olives once a year and are locally grown. And they had a huge variety of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I love that they have samples that you can pump and try before you buy. The sales lady was very nice and knowledgeable in all the different varieties. They have sets that are great gifts or souvenirs. They have sets already made or you can customize on your own. I loved the fact that you literally can buy all sizes and amounts. They even sell them by the ounce. It's nice because you can get some bread at the market and enjoy some balsamic and olive oil right there! They have such a meat flavors. And all of them you are able to taste. It's very tasty, We had to buy some to take home.

We learned harvesting olives takes a lot of hard work! Our group bought a few bottles of oil to support as we enjoyed the taste and tour. The owner was so down to earth and friendly and shared our support goes back to investing into the olive trees. Go support this business by buying their evoo!

It's a pretty small deli located near a brewery and I believe a public market. Parking is not the best but we were able to squeeze into the nearby parking lot. The interior is cute, I'll be at small. It's like a small deli front with sandwiches and a couple of like jarred or canned things or dried things that you could shop for, but the focus is really the deli here. This review is for the deli sandwich only, we can't comment on the other deli products, though it seems like their customers love their products and they were really helpful and friendly to everyone looking We got the muffaletta. Unfortunately, they were out of the standard bread so we swapped it for a baguette and no regrets. The sandwich itself was so good nice and salty, intense flavors, but also melt in your mouth. We're so glad we decided to stop by here and I definitely would like to come back to try their other sandwiches and maybe their deli offerings.

It was across the street from where we just had lunch at Scala Osteria. We got a lot of attention right away. Since most things are weighed per pound, you have to ask for specific things and they will then get it for you. They had a number of beans from Rancho Gordo. I found out about the pickled vegetables from a Rancho Gordo email stating that theirs was the best. They had a small container for $10 in the fridge by the pound. They had a number of gourmet sandwiches that you can't find anywhere else. My husband loves porchetta sandwiches from Sausalito at the Joinery. That's why we had to come here when we found out that they had porchetta sandwiches freshly made. They also sell raw porchetta and porchetta shoulder for 16 and 10 respectively. We opted to buy the cooked porchetta for $20 a pound. The staff member instructed us to bake it at 250° in the loosely wrapped foil for 15 minutes to freshen it up. I'll give an update after we eat it. :)

We would definitely do another class here. Support small and local businesses, you won't regret it!

Showed up to…read morethe 3:30pm class 10 minutes early and the doors were locked and it looked like no one was inside the building. We tried calling the phone number multiple times and no one picked up. Also, knocked several times. Two other people arrived as well who tried knocking and calling to no avail. We waited until 3:45 until we gave up and left. After we left, we received an email saying we had been refunded and at the bottom of the receipt it said "We apologize as this order did not show up on our calendar until today. We look forward to hosting you in the future. Thank you, Sheana" (see attached screenshot). I think this is deeply unprofessional on so many levels. Even if the reservation had only shown up today on their calendar (despite us booking it several weeks prior) and they weren't prepared, they had all the time before 3pm to reach out via email or phonecall to say they couldn't make the class. They didn't even try reaching out and instead we received a refund after the scheduled class time. Lack of communication is such a bummer considering we set aside a couple hours for this and we were so excited. Also, this is located in Sonoma which means it's out of the way for people who are visiting Napa and its vineyards. That's typically not an issue but considering we had to drive out the way and we got cancelled on after we waited for them is where it is an issue. Deeply unprofessional situation and hope they improve on communication soon.

Our service was solid and we appreciated our waiter allowing us to split the bill. I ordered the Eggs Benedict with a side of sausage.

The sausage was good and you got three links when you order it on the side.

He couldn't even be bothered with his answers " what we have is what's out there" we understand that. It was the tone and the flippant response. Sadly its a tourist trap - and they can treat people anyway they want for there is someone else coming along - I'm local - I won't be back - eff that place - I do not recommend for their bad customer service. The other staff " appeared busy" picking things up and putting them back down then up again when you make eye contact. I won't shop here again. My friend bought a little jam anyway , yet commented she won't get it again- she will find somewhere else . Raspberry basil jam is what she bought .

They offer fresh produce, pantry items, raw meat and seafood on one side of the store and the opposite side they offer deli meats, fresh salads, sandwiches made to order, hot food and a variety of togo options. The market is not that big inside but it is very clean, beautifully organized and their employees are very nice. It makes the experience just a little more enjoyable. I haven't been here before and I originally came for the wild wonder drinks, but I found myself to try their fresh sourdough bread and fresh salads. Definitely a little more expensive than your typical grocery stores around town but it is worth the visit.

The stellar service made the evening unforgettable and super-special. The food was also outstanding. I had the pork cutlet with capers and butter -- absolutely delicious! The cutlet was thin with a wonderfully crispy exterior and soft, buttery interior. The sauce on top didn't overwhelm the meat. The portion was so huge I enjoyed leftovers for lunch the next day. Other members of our party got the seafood and meat pastas (universally praised for freshness and perfectly cooked pasta). The appetizers were standouts as well, including the lightly fried olives with anchovies (a real surprise since the anchovies were mellowed by the cooking process but kept their savory deliciousness). The chop salad was also a revelation. Overall, we could not have asked for a better experience. We will gladly return to Scala when we are back in Napa!
