Under-Study took over what used to be Dean & Deluca Flagship store right next to the MAC Art Museum, and right across from V. Sattui Winery. I first heard about this place through my sister-in-law, so we had to check it out while she was in town. The spot is run by Michelin-level chefs and features an open kitchen concept, offering tapas, pastries, butcher, coffee, wine, and more. There's a small dining area inside and have a back room. More eating outside though. FOOD REVIEW Smoked Trout Rillettes - 5/5 So good. The trout spread paired with crispy salmon skin as the "chip" was freaking amazing. Black Truffle Fries - 5/5 Incredible. The smoked onion aioli really made it--we couldn't get enough. Hot Chicken n Croffle - 5/5 Everything worked perfectly together. Chicken was also tender, moist and crip. So clutch. Siciliano Sandwich - 5/5 Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients and meats. Lobster Corn Dog - 3/5 A lot of hype, but just okay. Nothing exciting about this, and the most expensive from our tab. The staff was super friendly, and overall it was a great experience. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back to try the pastries and more items on the menu. read more

This is a great bakery to stop at while you're in Napa Valley. Of course there's the hype but I do have to say their baked goods were good, some were very rich, but hey, go big or go home. My friends and I also ordered some breakfast items, one of which was the chicken and waffles and I do have to say that was worth it. We also ordered hash browns which were tasty but did not realize how small they were but once again, rich in flavor. We decided to eat next door in the covered patio which was a nice option. Overall, I think this place is worth trying out, lucky for us it was not busy when we got there early. Prices are a little high but it's Napa and you can tell they use quality ingredients. read more

Stopped in here randomly for a pick me up before wine tasting and what a pleasant surprise. Lots of delicious pastry offerings, and good coffee selections! The honey comb latte and the lobster corn dog with caviar were the standouts for the group, but definitely on the pricier side. Expected probably for this area. They also seemed to have a small meats/butcher type section with some quality looking offerings. Some seating inside as well as outside, ample parking, and super friendly service! read more

Under-Study - Lobster Corn Dog - Bakeries Near Me - Saint Helena, California

Bougie and fresh bakery in the middle of Napa! Saw this place recommended by a food/travel account on IG and saved it for our upcoming trip. It was an easy drive from downtown Napa. They seem to be popular for their fancy corn dog, but since it was early-ish in the day we didn't want anything too savory, so we opted for the hashbrowns and a croissant. Ordered online a bit before we arrived, which was timed perfectly - once we arrived, they had our order ready for us. We also picked up some other things that looked tasty - the orange looking pastry was so cute (I forgot the name) and was also delicious. Overall, loved the vibes and freshness of the space. The food is clearly made with love and care, and the menu is creative to keep you wanting more. read more

Loved their lobster corn dog, similar to the flavor of lobster balls from hot pot, with a corn dog crust, topped with caviar and a sort of crema. Def a nice little snack and piping hot. Also loved their honey comb latte with the crisp honeycomb that melts into the drink. Cannele was crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and had the signature burnt caramel and rum flavor I love. We also got a cold brew but def the most basic of the selections. Lots of great cafe selections to choose from and all done up so well. Would def pay them another visit before we leave Napa if up in this area. Right next to Press and tucked to the left when facing the building. Great service, yummy bites, and perfect for those who love cafe culture. read more

Look no further if you're seeking the BEST BUTTER CROISSANT in all of Wine Countrdy. R In fact, it's one of the best spots in town to grab breakfast/brunch, a glass of wine, and or to pick up quality ingredients for a picnic, or even dinner. We came early in the morning and ordered coffee and a few bites for breakfast. PRO TIP: go to the outdoor patio next door at Press and enjoy your food there! Chicken and Waffles were fire and all the vienoisserie we ordered. Went to Moulin in Napa the next day and wasn't impressed. read more

Congratulations Under-Study. You have knocked it out of the park and have inspired me to live life differently. The place is bustling with workers who seem to know what they are doing and they care about their productions. The location is beautiful. I'm trying to figure out how I can upgrade my kitchen with these colors. Tiffany blue, pink and yellow complement each other so well. The food has impressed me to the core. I love being inspired to learn new skills so I can copy recipes. We had the pig ears (phenomenal), butternut squash soup (life changing) and the Siciliano sandwich (incredible). The food is outstanding! For drinks, I had an unsweetened matcha. It was probably the best matcha I've ever had. My husband had espresso. It was at least as good as the espresso we had in Italy. Well done, Under-Study. I'm proclaiming myself as your biggest fan! read more

Stopped in here for some bakery items and got the pain au chocolate, persimmon bread, mandarin mousse, sour cream and onion cream cheese pastry and seasonal fruit tart. I really savored the sour cream and onion cream cheese pastry and the chilled mandarin mousse. All the flaky pastries were on the crispy/firm/crunchy side. I would give the heavier food a shot next time as I saw some unique variations of classic meals - caviar corn dog and chicken and waffles. Staff were kind, and it's a lovely cafe to spend time in. There's some seating inside as well as a nice patio area with a water fountain. read more

As a goodie, also love watching how they prepare everything. Highly enjoyed the everything knot pastry and the trout rillet. BF enjoyed his breakfast sandwich orange juice was fresh and bright.

Pretty underwhelming for the hype, value, and taste. Maybe if it wasn't so hyped up I wouldn't be as underwhelmed. The displays are quite pretty, but it is packed and there isn't a ton of space inside. There is patio seating in the back apparently, but I didn't venture back there. When I went on a Saturday, it was packed with people taking photos of everything. I got a few pastries to try and the portions are small for the price in my opinion. I tried the double chocolate cookie ($5), lemon pound cake, chocolate croissant (which is presented as a stick) and iced coffees. Overall, I thought it was all just okay. Ice coffees were watery and not that flavorful. Pastries tasted okay, but nothing to write home about. Wasn't bad, but wasn't great either. The cookie was the worst (texture wasn't great, tasted stale), lemon pound cake was standard, and the chocolate croissant was unique in presentation but not taste. They also have savory snacks like lobster caviar hot dogs, a 'deli' with freshly cut meats, etc. I really wanted to try the lobster caviar hot dog but I saw the table next to me get one and it was tiny for $32. Probably wouldn't go back again anytime soon. read more

Stopped by for a coffee break on a rainy weekday afternoon, this cafe is absolutely adorable and it has a very artsy and chic vibe to it. The iced honeycomb latte and love potion (white mocha with raspberry flavor) were absolutely fantastic. The staff very kindly offered the option to bring down the sweetness a notch which I recommend if you don't want the drink to be too sweet. I thought the honeycomb latte was one of the best tasting coffee drinks I've had recently (I did not adjust the sweetness), the crunchy caramelized honeycomb bits added such a fun and delicious touch! The love potion was packed with raspberry flavor which perfectly complemented the creamy white chocolate and it was perfect with the sweetness toned down just a bit. Can't wait to come back to try their baked goods/food next time! read more

Beautiful pastries in a cute spot! The food here isn't cheap, but youre paying for Michelin quality at a more affordable price. All of the pastries that we tried were delicious, and we even came back on another day to try more! Their pastry menu changes daily. The pastries were all delicious, but the sleeper hit for me was fried salmon skin. It's supposed to be a side for trout dip, but they let us just order the salmon skin and it was so good! read more

Good and convenient spot to stop by before or after your wine tasting adventures! I shared 3 pastries and my favorite out of them was the Pain Suisse Reuben. This came with house-cured American wagyu, pastrami, sauerkraut, cheese, and dressing. The pastry was very flavorful, tangy from the sauerkraut and flaky from the croissant. The other two I tried was the Breakfast Sandwich and Everything Knot. Pretty standard fillings but the croissant/bread is soo good and buttery. read more

It is a bit simplistic to call Under-Study a cafe because it serves coffee, baked goods, breakfast, and lunch. Everything at Under-Study is interesting and creative. We came at about 10:45 am and ordered breakfast, including the chocolate croissant, breakfast sandwich, bacon sampler, and beef fat hashbrowns. The croissant is just like the one at Le Comptoir at the Ritz in Paris. The pastry is crisp and flaky and with an ample amount of chocolate running throughout. At 11 am, the menu segues to lunch, and the menu gets even more fun. We ordered wagyu skewers, pig ears, and got to try the viral lobster corndog. All of these were so good. The wagyu were these tender, delectable bites with an herbaceous topping. The pigs ears were neat, a bit crispy and very caramelized with a sweet, spicy, and sour sauce. The lobster corn dog was a luxurious treat, and apparently was heavily featured at Bottle Rock music festival this year, with a lobster sausage in the middle, and generous amounts of caviar topping it. It was a very fun treat to try. We ate inside the cafe but they also make the Press outdoor patio available as well. Staff was very attentive and warm. Overall, it was clear that Under-Study is so ambitious and aspirational as an eatery with delicious bites. read more

A must when in St. Helena. A high end cafe that serves gourmet deli items and elevated patisserie. The concept- fast food meets fine dining. It's a modern causal vibe - wait in line order at the counter. A showcase of their patisseries are available to view, to help you decide what to order. I ended up ordering 3 items, I really couldn't decide. I ordered to go: spiced persimmon cake, chocolate chip cookie and the Calistoga cookie ( oats, figs, pecans, coconut, milk chocolate, caramel and golden raisins). The Calistoga cookie was my absolute favorite and it's gorgeous to look at. It's like eating a piece of art! The cafe also has lunch items, to go bougie lunch boxes and a butcher counter - meats, cheeses, seafood and charcuterie items. Seating is available inside and out. I'm a big fan of this place, I'll be sure to stop in whenever I'm in St. Helena. read more

Understudy is such a cute, elevated café right off the main highway in Napa. We weren't very hungry since we had just eaten, but we tried the chocolate chip cookie, the madeleine cookie, and a chai tea latte and everything was really good. The space is super cute with a few tables inside and outside, and it looks like there's a room for wine tasting. There's nothing else quite like it in the area, which makes it stand out. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. read more

It's a really fun and chic, upscale cafe concept. The food was overall pretty good! Be warned the portion sizes leaned on the smaller side. It feels like tasting menu size which is great if you want to try lots of things but not a win for the wallet. There are just a few high tables inside, otherwise you can sit at the patio shared with Press restaurant, where you can also order food. Good service. Gorgeous pastries that look like artwork. CONS The price. The portions. $32 for a tiny lobster caviar corn dog ( I did enjoy it tho!). The French toast stick was just fine--I wish it had a crunch to it but it was all soft. The octopus was good but not WOW worthy. PROS The chocolate croissant is in stick form and it tasted great! We liked our iced vanilla and caramel lattes! The syrups are made in-house! It's a unique dining experience. The interior design is gorgeous. They have a butcher, caviar, truffles, and more. Its all super cool fancy food offerings. Now they're offering cooking classes, which I have yet to experience. TLDR: it's pricey for what you get, the portions can be small, but it's a fun unique experience. I'm glad I went and I'll be back again. read more

Uhhhh a $32 Lobster Corn Dog? What kind of hella bougie millennial gimmicky ridiculousness is this?! I'll take 5! Opening this week is Michelin-starred, Press' new cafe: Under-Study at the former Dean & Deluca Building next to Napa's The MAC. We're here for their Sweet & Sour Pig Ears, my fav dish at Press but figure we try their signature snack as well, the Lobster Caviar Corn Dog. Under-Study is open for breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snacks. Fast-casual service. M E N U Breakfast bites (served until 11 am), apps/snacks, salads, sandwiches, vennoiseries, cookies, and jewel box desserts. Spritzers and wine available. S N A C K S * Sweet & Sour Pig Ears ($14) Deliciously crisp, chewy, and fatty with an addictive sweet & sour espelette glaze that was flavorful, punchy, and spicy (may be too spicy for some). Like crack. Not that I know how that tastes like. * Lobster Caviar Corn Dog ($32) This bougie snack got rave reviews from Bottlerock goers. A boudin-style "fun size" sausage made with fish mousse, steamed lobster, and herbs that's dipped in a GF batter and fried until golden brown. It's then topped with a remoulade sauce and Tsar Nicolai caviar. Slightly crunchy batter (a bit too thiccc tho) was a nice contrast to the bouncy seafood filling. The rich creamy tang of the remoulade complimented the sweetness of the filling with the caviar adding bursts of umami. TBH, it lowkey reminds me of Hong Kong style fish/seafood balls but sausage shaped. The lobster flavor kinda got lost into the mix. Glad I tried it once but wouldn't get it again. * Matcha Yuzu Cookie ($5) Gorgeous but looked better than it tasted. I My ideal cookie is crispy edges with a chewy center. This cookie was soft with a light earthy flavor, garnished with yuzu cream and matcha white chocolate (?) coins. Gripe: Wish they provided proper silverware. The compostable utensils broke when cutting into the pig ears. S E R V I C E Friendly and prompt during weekday lunch. A M B I A N C E Sleek and contemporary with playful touches (a bench modeled after a stick of butter), an open kitchen, and butcher counter. Several cafe mounted tables inside with plentiful tables outside. Most are high tops. P A R K I N G Ample free parking. Overall, Under-Study is an ideal pit stop for bougie snacks tho I wish they had more comfortable seating. read more

I love bakeries and I'm always wanting to try new spots in my area. I had decided to make the small drive here and try it out with a friend visiting from out of town. We each grabbed a coffee and a pastry. The drinks were good, lots of good flavor and not overly sweet. The pastries were ok but I've had better at better prices. I do think they look very pretty but the flavors lack in my opinion. read more

I came to Under-Study around 1pm on a Saturday, and it was relatively busy. The pastries available are all on display, and there are some other lunch items available on the menu. The space is open, bright, and colorful, with some relatively small tables with chairs long the wall - not a bunch of seating if it gets busy and toward the end of my visit there were a few groups of people waiting for my spot. I got an iced pumpkin spice latte, which was a special, as well as a pain au chocolat. Both were fine, but nothing outstanding. The pumpkin spice latte did not have a strong taste of coffee and was a little burnt tasting, and the pain au chocolate was crispy but lacked the buttery layers inside that I was hoping for. Overall, Under-Study is a little over-hyped in my opinion, with the quality not reflecting the cost, and there are plenty of other places with better pastries and coffee to visit. The non-pastry items may be better, but I'm not sure I'll be back to try them out. read more

My new favorite place for a quick but luxurious bite in St Helena - great casual place to stop for breakfast and coffee or for some food between wine tastings! It's counter service and usually has a line, but it moves quick. I've been once for lunch late summer where we were able to sit in the neighboring Press restaurant courtyard to enjoy all the bites we got. They had plenty of options for my dietary restrictions too. Most recently I came for breakfast, since I don't eat eggs or gluten there weren't too many options for me but I was satiated with the bacon sampler and caviar-topped hash browns. Both visits I got a coffee and their vegan and gf miso chocolate chip cookie, which I will definitely come back for! read more

A friend told me about this place when I was at their house for dinner. They had this amazing Smoked Trout Rillette, a baguette, some cheeses they bought from here and they all were out of this world!! If I wasn't on a long drive home I would have bought that Trout Rillette; it was so creamy, but also fresh, citrusy, melt in your mouth deliciousness!! Everything at this place looks like perfection, straight out of a magazine, it doesn't even look real. I bought a chocolate croissant stick thing (no idea what it was called) and it was so delicious. It was flaky, rich, but also soft and doughy inside. Latte was also spot on. I can't wait until I'm back in town and they have their cooking classes started. Definitely will be going out of my way to come back here. read more

This wonderful Napa trending bakery closes around four and isn't available for some days of the week. Be sure to check the schedule before arriving. It's popular among locals and SF Bay Area visitors have been visiting it from afar. Their baked goods are pieces and slices of art. There are a lot of gourmet action here : large dry aging fridge display massive fish and a rack of meat. Caviar truffle salami and ham in the counter. We tried the: - Iconic viral lobster corndog: it comes with its own paper box and tray. Looks like an amusement park snack. Cute but it's fancy and delicious. Well made. One cannot miss out on this instagram perfect offering, luxurious and presented on a stick, in a paper box, on a tray lined with under study wrapper . It was warm and tasty. My friend who generally doesn't like lobster enjoyed taking bites out of it. A bit expensive but a fun experience! - Avocado toast : fresh mini veggies with a thin avocado paste spread (not sliced). Flavorful delicious. I slightly prefer a more chunky avocado toast. It's more savory, thin spread. - Mandarin Mousse. A Mandarin shaped chocolate with mousse cream. Their pastry and desserts are works of art. The shell is made of chocolate, light, not too sweet, the inside is filled with fluffy mousse cream which is rich and light at the same time. Perfectly balanced. Best for photographing. - Matcha cookie - delicious, just right bitterness, modern design, very cool cookie. The matcha chocolate wafers are thin and creamy, also tasty - Almond brioche - beautiful geometry - peach parfait? The flower shaped white small cake, is beautiful and delicious at the same time. The cake is small but has multiple layers of textures : creamy, cake Notable items on the menu: There's a special Julia Child menu : PRIX FIXE RATATOUILLE VOL AU VENT ROASTED CHICKEN, CHANTSAECE ILE FLOTTANTE, AVAILABLE WEEKENDS ONLY. Next time we want to get the lobster corn dog again, also try the long pain au chocolat There are quite a few staff helping with baked goods, also brings food to your table from the menus (caviar covered lobster corn dog, a must have, looks so fun, creamy spread avocado toast). Everyone's friendly. Lots of local customers keep coming in but you are helped right away. Under Study is a place filled with impressive gourmets at the heart of the wine country, right next to the MAC Napa Valley museum of art and culture (it was fun enjoy baked goods while peeking at the Julia Child exhibition through the see through window pane). They have multiple sections: outdoor seating area with umbrellas, indoor high table and chairs, baked goods, gourmet deli, and some wine bottled storage. There's also a gourmet deli like counter with dried meat and caviar and drinks for taking home. There's a dry age container with beautiful full sized ocean giant fish aging in process.

From the Press Restaurant group in Napa, they have brought forth this amazing new bakery called Under-Study. This has taken over the former Dean & Delucca gourmet supermarket that used to be back in the day (RIP...those were good times!) This is a beautifully done location and the food is wonderful too. The pastries are just gorgeous to look at. We ordered the Pan Au Chocolate, chocolate chip cookie, and Blueberry Danish. ALL were amazing. The chocolate croissant was very flaky and buttery, and had such a fun shape to it, shaped long and skinny like a hot dog! So cute! The chocolate chip cookie was nice and soft, and had great quality chocolate. The blueberry danish had a really nice cream filling - nice and rich, pulling you into one more bite. All pastries were so delicious!!! This place is brand new, so service seemed a little off, but really not that bad. They just seemed a little out of place. They will get there, I'm sure. This is a wonderful place to stop by and get pastries in between wine tastings and for gifts for your friends on the way home. Napa Valley needed a new bakery, and I'm so glad they're here!! read more

Service was great but the food was not. What's called pain suisse in Paris is very different than the savory ham and cheese croissant they are calling Pain Suisse here. I thought I'd try it anyway. To say it was disappointing would be an understatement. Not worth the $ or the calories. It didn't taste good at all. It wasn't even noon yet and what I got was a very pretty looking croissant that tasted a bit dry, a bit old, bland, and cold. Maybe I just got a bad one, but given some of the other mediocre reviews I don't think I'll be coming back. read more

Came here during the weekday, no wait time. I was able to order quickly and food was promptly brought out to our table. Plenty of parking outside with tables inside and outside for patrons. My matcha latte was a bit bland and watered down, tasting mostly of milk. Chopped salad was tasty, it comes lightly dressed with herb dressing and bread crumbs provided a pleasant extra crunch. I admit the lobster corndog is kind of gimmicky, but I had to try it. The flavor was a bit bland and not as savory as I'd had hoped, I could have gone without ordering it, but my curiosity got the best of me. Where Under-study really shined was their pastries! Oh man, the pain suisse reuben was delicious and flakey. I had a similar pastry at Paloma NYC and this one was far better. The matcha cookie was soft and chewy and the flavor of the yuzu cream pairs well together. They had so many other small pastries and cakes that looked amazing detailed. I would love to come back and try them all. read more

Super friendly staff and plenty of seating, though the seating area is separate from the main café. What we ordered: - Lobster corn dog with caviar: Pricey, but worth trying at least once for its uniqueness. - Duck liver mousse: Rich, fatty, and flavorful. The bread served with it had a nice crisp bite to it, just wished it was served warm - Lemon pound cake: Slightly dense with a well-balanced lemon flavor. Probably one of the less unique pastries on the menu but still a solid option in my opinion - Orange mousse: A must try. Very unique, with a light and airy texture. Delicious. - Croissant: An interesting take with a hard, crispy exterior and a dense, chewy, hollow center. If you're looking for a buttery, soft, flaky croissant - this is not it. - Honeycomb latte: A must try and the standout item for me. The honeycomb topping pieces slowly dissolve into the drink, adding the perfect level of sweetness. Also recommend trying a honeycomb piece on its own before it melts! - Truffle fries: Tasty, well-seasoned, and came with generous truffle shavings on top. - Chicken sandwich: Tasty and well-seasoned with juicy, tender meat. - Chocolate chip cookie: Came with the lobster corn dog and truffle fries combo. A classic, solid chocolate chip cookie. - Matcha latte: Didn't try personally, but my friend enjoyed it. Overall, a great spot with unique menu items and friendly service. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Pricy - very pricy - snacks from the team behind the Michelin-starred Press (next door) make for a great (if bougie) lunch. And the ability to order online makes it convenient, though the spot itself is beautiful. I LOVED the viral lobster corndog (topped with caviar) - the entire bite worked perfectly together, and no one flavor dominated. The pig ears are a staple for Press; they're good, but I found them a tad too tangy. The tartare was good, but the other dishes were better. There also wasn't enough bread. read more
