The lines in the morning definitely get long. Don't expect to loiter inside; there are signs kindly asking to wait for your order at their outside tables. They estimated about 30 minutes for my order of 2 sandwiches and a coffee, but I was pleasantly surprised when they called my name after 15 minutes. I don't even usually like English muffin sandwiches but this wowed me. The inside of the muffin is so soft and the outside is griddled to a perfect crisp. A great start to my day in Napa, I'd just remember to order ahead online next time.

TLDR: Finally got to try the famous breakfast sandwich on…read moretheir english muffin. My final verdict is that this is an excellent breakfast sandwich and one of the best english muffins I've had, but it's not life changing. That being said, quality, prices, and variety were all excellent so this bakery deserves a visit if you're near any of their locations in Napa, Yountville, or St. Helena! ------ FOOD: 1. CLASSIC BREAKFAST SANDWICH (4/5) Loved that this was made to order so came out super hot and fresh. They pre-cut the sandwich in half so that when you open it up, the cheese is nice and stringy. The muffin was extremely soft, I actually really liked the ham, and the egg was nice and fluffy. Two points of improvement: 1) the sandwich was surprisingly greasy / oily even though it didn't look it would be at all, and 2) the egg could probably use some more seasoning (salt, pepper, etc) because I found myself needing to use the Cholula hot sauce packet with every bite. 2. ENGLISH MUFFIN WITH JAM (3.5/5) I only tried this after it had been sitting out for 20 - 25 minutes and was already cold and a bit hard. It tasted totally different from the english muffin in my sandwich, and there wasn't enough jam in the muffin itself. As I had it I wouldn't get again, but I think I need to give it another chance fresh. ------ ENVIRONMENT / AMBIANCE: * Located right next to Fatted Calf and Gotts by Oxbow market. If you're coming from Oxbow, you have to walk all the way around Gotts or there's a narrow alley on the other side of Gotts that is a shortcut straight to Modal Bakery * It's a small shop but with all the same variety you will find in the other Modal Bakeries. No indoor seating, standing room only for the line and for pick-up * All the seating is right outside and there are several tables available to claim * The overall feel is: neighborhood-bakery-casual ------ SERVICE: * Fine, standard service * They'll call your name when your item is ready, and then you get get utensils, napkins, and sauce packets yourself by the door on your way out. If you're sitting outside, I think they'll bring your order out to you if no one claims it inside

Service - Worth the wait…read more Food: Ham, Egg & Cheese Croissant - Delicious. Perfectly pillowy and crisp. It is a French classic for a reason. It was elevated with a silken egg Eclaire - Chocolate! It was chocolate on chocolate on chocolate! Instead of a vanilla pastry cream, it was filled with chocolate pastry cream Oh,Oh - Pillowy. A ho-ho but better! The outer chocolate shell had a snap to it. TKO - Simple. It is the bakery's version of an Oreo. This was very good if you don't like things that are too sweet, this is a great choice Kouign Amann - Heaven. Buttery, sugary, flakey! Bacon Cheddar Scone - Must get! This was delicious and savory! This is best eaten the same day. It became very dry after sitting around Oatmeal Pecan Cookie - As advertised. It was a delicious cookie without too much extra fluff. It was thin with crispy edges Epi Baguette - Crusty. There is more outer surface area, so there is a larger amount of crust to inner ratios. Fuhgeddaboudit - Worth a try. It was a rice krispy treat, with salted caramel, covered in chocolate. It is definitely worth a try if they have it available. This will not be in the display case! Drinks: Salted Caramel Latte - Not sweet. For it being a caramel drink, it was not very sweet which was nice! Sometimes it is just overly sweet but this one had a really good balance Chocolate Milk - Must try. It is made with their in house chocolate! On to my next adventure...

I opted for the Irresistible Fried Egg Sandwich and my wife got the Satisfying Breakfast Sandwich with bacon. We each got an Americano. We both loved our sandwiches. We aren't huge breakfast people and could have split and been fine. But we didn't. And we ate them all. The Americanos were decent. Not amazing, but good. You order at the front and pickup and pay at the back. They have a great system down and it worked flawlessly. They also were busy and she told us it might be 15-20 minutes. It was 23 minutes. So we appreciated the heads up. All in all, a good experience. We will go back tomorrow (and not because of the hotel discount).

It's tiny, but definitely worth a stop. We bought a sandwich, a ham and cheese croissant, and a pastry, and all three were very good. It was nice to find a place where we could get something savory along with a sweet treat and enjoy everything we picked. One of the things that stood out most was how beautiful all of the pastries were. The display alone makes you want to stop and look at everything before deciding. You can tell a lot of care goes into their presentation, and it was hard to narrow down the choices! The bakery was clean, and the customer service was good, which rounded out a really pleasant visit. Don't let the small size or shopping center location make you overlook this place. We were happy we stopped in, and I'd gladly go back to try more of those pastries!

We had a fig croissant and an almond croissant which were dry and tasted a bit too dense and cakey, instead of being flaky. For coffee, we got a cortado and a fig syrup latte, which was $5 and $7 respectively but was pretty small. Again, it's a decent place to stop especially to have a bite in the morning with friends (because they have a nice outdoor seating area). However, I would recommend checking out other places if you get the chance.
