Buttercream Bakery
Number one on our list is not the fancy restaurants you are going to find on other websites written by people who don’t live here.
This is true Napa and this spot will be full with only locals. Don’t be surprised if you have to wait for a table but the wait will be worth it.
This is not a fancy restaurant in Napa. This is a place that shows the Blue Collar roots of Napa.
This pink and white striped 50’s bakery and has been at the same location near Napa High as long as I can remember. It is a gem and from my experience these old school bakeries are very rare.
Nothing fancy on the menu just traditional American fare. Biscuits and gravy, eggs and hash browns etc. are the menu items you can expect.
The best maple bars I’ve ever had and you can even get them with a strip of bacon. Also the champagne cake is amazing. Chocolate ganache cupcake and apple and blueberry fritters. These are all the best we have ever had anywhere.
We can go on and on all their baked goods are amazing.
There is a large selection of donuts, cookies, cakes and pies.
This is a local favorite for anyone who grew up in Napa and it is delicious.
Grace’s Table
This has become one of my favorite places for when I want Chilaquiles – Great staff and food.
Downtown Joe’s
What I love about Downtown Joe’s breakfast is that it is never crowded in the morning!
