    We came here every morning during our trip to Napa. Coffee was solid, but our favorite was the atmosphere. There's plenty of seats all around the property that made it the perfect place to have a slow morning. Loved it!

    While staying across the street, I sought a quick breakfast and a much-needed coffee. The coffee was exceptional, truly remarkable. However, the avocado toast left an indelible impression on my memory.

    Delicious oat milk latte! The service was very fast and the patio is super cute. A great start to the day before heading to the vineyards.

    Quiche

    Stopped by Sam's General Store for breakfast and really enjoyed the experience. I had the quiche and my friend had the avocado toast-both were delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. However, too many sesame seeds on both. But You can tell they use quality ingredients. The ambiance is what really stood out -- charming, cozy, and thoughtfully put together. Whether you're sitting inside or out on the patio, it's a lovely spot to start the morning. That said, it's definitely on the pricey side. You're paying a bit of a premium, especially for breakfast, but the overall atmosphere and food make it feel (mostly) worth it. A great little stop if you're in the area and don't mind splurging a bit for a laid-back, elevated breakfast.

    Stopped in for lunch at this cute little store. Plenty of tables and sunshine and it was nicely manicured. My friend and I got the same thing, the breakfast sandwich. Hers was too hot in the middle and mine was took cold. I guess they heated them at the same time? The latte did the job. Bf got the tea, and I didn't hear any complaints. Very cute spot to try if the day is nice and you got time to lounge.

    We got a lovely coffee at Sam's general store. My cappuccino was strong and tasted amazing. The coffee shop is in a historic building in Calistoga, and there is a really pleasant outdoor seating area. It took a little while to get to the front of the line to order- but it wasn't horrible- and it was an exercise in patience on a relaxed morning. I would recommend this spot!

    Gorgeous little novelty coffee shop w delicious specialty provisions and wonderful coffee drinks. Ambiance is charming and staff is friendly and welcoming! LOVE!

    It's a cute little shop connected to an Inn. So it's not entirely its own coffee shop- as there are areas for hotel guests only. But plenty of outdoor seating. (Restrooms are outside.)

    Stopped by for a quick coffee after getting into Calistoga, definitely need to get there early if you want any of the pastries. It was a holiday weekend and they had already sold out of most things by the time we arrived, but they had a couple items which we really wanted to try. They have multiple outdoor areas which are super nice to enjoy your drinks. Worth checking out if you can get some tasty treats.

    Cute, relaxed locals cafe.

    Had breakfast here on our recent trip and loved the food, ambiance and local vibe. It's a grab & go place where you order from the counter. We also loved the tucked away location one block from Main Street. What we had: Coffee - delicious Overnight Oats Croissant Egg salad Fruit Simple, healthy, delicious! Highly recommend.

    Breakfast sandwich and drink

    I was staying in the area at a spot with no breakfast so I drove over for a very early breakfast and to read for a bit. I had dreams of sitting outside by a fire pit and watching the sunrise but it was simply too cold to do that lol. The staff inside was very friendly and I started with a chai latte and a breakfast sandwich and found a cozy corner to read in. There was a pretty steady stream of traffic coming in after that, I'm assuming both folks staying on property and others like me looking for a quick bite to eat. On the way out, I grabbed one of their juices and an almond croissant. The green juice was really good, the almond croissant left a bit to be desired. I would return!

    Nice merch

    So happy to find this sweet coffee & deli off the main road in Calistoga. The outdoor seating is lovely and the inside is charming. The staff were quite nice and I loved the Matcha-Cha-Cha latte! The croissant was huge, flaky & tasty.

    Turkey panini, matcha green tea with almond milk, frittata, kombucha, and 2 wines

    I absolutely loved the freshly made waffle cones, and the Cookies & Cream ice cream was delicious!…read more I do have one suggestion that I hope management will consider. I looked for an email address so I could share this feedback privately, but since I couldn't find one, I'm leaving it here instead. For hygiene purposes, I recommend having attendants use a tissue, napkin, or gloves when handling waffle cones rather than touching them with bare hands. During my visit, the same employee was operating the cash register while also preparing ice cream, which meant they were handling both money and food. I believe this small change would help reinforce good food-handling practices and provide customers with an even greater experience. Thank you for the wonderful ice cream and I forward to visiting again!

Today my friend who observed the delicious cinnamon aroma in the shop pointed out the sign that the waffle cones are made with vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon. So I got one scoop cardamom and one scoop matcha in waffle cone, and it was a delightful sweet and spicy combo. There was a long line with the warm weather and holiday weekend, but service was quick and friendly. We were lucky to get a table for our group of 5.

    What an amazing experience…read more I know wine is the primary attraction but as those of us who are local know there is so much more This olive oil tasting is one of the many more things. Great ambience off Silverado trail. Cane here with my best friend to do a tasting. Charlie was our host and she was amazing. Super knowledgeable and a terrific host. We tasted two olive oils form their harvest. One was more of the less ripe olives and one was of the more ripe olives. Both were tasty. One more and the other less acidic. Both peppery. The. Came a couple of oils form Italy and Spain. I liked the Spanish one much better and it went well with the bread and was candidly amazing in its own Then rhe balsamic vinegar came. Aged to 18 years the fist was perfectly acidic and quite viscous. The second one an infused with ripe figs for a year. More sweet for me but perfectly balanced. What an awesome idea experience I highly recommend this place!!!.

    We came in for an olive oil tasting and had a wonderful experience…read more We made a reservation about 2 days in advance and they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions such as vegan for myself. For example, while others had an olive oil gelato, I had an olive oil sorbet with a blood orange gummy. It was really interesting. In no way did I feel deprived or like I was missing out. In fact, mine might have been better than what the others had. That was the last course though. Before that, we did olive oil tastings with bread and popcorn and balsamic vinegar tastings with cherry tomatoes. They used to make all the food in house but now partner with some local places. Amberly also did a wonderful job walking us through details around the tastings and it was very informative. The whole thing takes place indoors and the interior is cute with plenty of olive oil lining the walls. I would absolutely go back to do it again in the future and recommend it to anyone considering it!
