    That jalapeños jack croissant caught my eye.  Soooo yummy.
    Elizabeth S.

    Stopping at Bella for coffee and light breakfast bites has been a regular habit for my friends and I when spending a weekend in Calistoga. It can get pretty busy at times, but the short wait is worth it. These ladies hustle and the line moves quickly. Coffee is good like a diner unless you want something more fancy like a matcha latte. If you have a sweet tooth. Bella has so many exquisite looking sweet treats I've never tried, but they sure are pretty! I'm sure they're good based on all the delicious breakfast offerings. I always get the jalapeño cheddar croissant. It just hits the spot for my savory craving in the morning. My gf loves her almond croissant which is also very good. Looking for more protein and less carbs? The quiches are quite big and pretty good but light on the ingredients inside. Bacon quiche could have used a bit more bacon but still fulfilling. If you want a proper breakfast they have chorizo, ham or sausage burritos also. I've never had one but maybe in the future before our morning wine tastings. Nice people behind the counter and so many delicious treats for the afternoon or morning! I look forward to another Bella breakfast next time I'm in Calistoga!

    Visited Bella's Bakery in Calistoga and it's such an adorable little spot in this charming small town! Started my day with their breakfast English muffin with ham and egg, and it was honestly just so good. Perfect way to kick off the morning! I also picked up one of their pre-made sandwiches for later, and it turned out to be a winner too! I think it was turkey with Brie cheese, and my partner absolutely loved it, saying it was amazing. I've heard through the grapevine that it might be one of Oprah's favorite bakeries, but can't say for sure--can anyone fact check that for us? If you find yourself in Calistoga, make sure to stop by Bella's Bakery for some tasty treats!

    Coffee/bakery on the main street in downtown. We were looking for road snacks, but ordered breakfast sandwiches, coffee and a scone. Gorgeous baked goods and sandwiches. Mellow vibe. Decorated with local art. A great stop to start the day and/or snack latter. Two thumbs up from this guy!

    There were so many delicious looking items to choose from. The staff were efficient and friendly. I had the breakfast sandwich on an English muffin. It was nothing special. My spouse had the raspberry pastry. He loved his. I would definitely be eager to return and try something else.

    I have been staying in Calistoga for the past 3 days and every morning I have taken a walk down to this Bakery for the best quick breakfast. I had the breakfast burrito, the croissant breakfast sandwich, and the English muffin (which they make fresh) breakfast sandwich. Everything thing has been so yummy and fresh. I love their cold chai as well. Such a cute place with a friendly staff.

    A wonderful place. Obviously popular with locals and tourists alike. Great coffee (strong like I prefer) and an overwhelming selection of pastries and sweet or savory morning offerings. Line can get long but it moves fast; service is very good!

    Love Latin family owned shops like this one. Had one of the biggest conchas I have ever seen. It was delicious. Also had the matcha latte my niece had the frappe and mentioned it was not sweet at all!!! so for my coffee lover get the frap. Must check out

    Morning pastries
    Rachel C.

    Easily some of the best pastries I've ever had. I've been here a couple of times and it has yet to disappoint. Their coffee is great, breakfast burritos have tons of meat, egg, and cheese. I've had a chocolate croissant, spinach and feta, almond croissant, peaches and cream danish, bacon Asiago quiche, and all have been amazing. I love stopping in after work (I work night shift) and getting something on my way home. I've never waited more than a couple minutes in line or to get my coffee. There's plenty of seating and the staff are always kind and patient, especially with so much to choose from. Plus they're always playing good music in the mornings which just adds to the experience. I plan on coming many more times.

    We were planning to get a few items but noticed flies on the baked goods & decided to pass. It might be best to have a closed display case.

    Never heard of the Model Bakery but using Yelp for great Bakeries. We were on our way to a morning…read morehike to Linda Falls. This bakery was on the way and not so crowded then the one in Yountvile. There was no line waiting outside, which was good. There were people eating outside and inside. There was no line to order, but we never been here so we let the locals go in front of us. I decide on the Oxford Veggie Breakfast sandwich, minus the ketchup. The sandwich was great lots of Avocados in each bite and the egg was spot on. Id highly recommend this breakfast sandwich. By bf got the carmel mocha and a bear claw. The carmel mocha was excellent, I wanted ordernone for self. The bear claw was jus ok. Very dry. Not recommend. But that's just opinion. Cute little bakery, very popular, quick service, lots of options, and very friendly service. If your ever in St Helena. Definitely go here for bake goods, breakfast, lunch, or and coffee and tea drinks.

The reason for my review is because of the cleaning procedure. We had a two top by the row of cushioned bench sitting by the bakery counter. One of the employees (who was nice but) was vigorously sweeping all the crumbs on the floor. They were flying in our direction and I was dodging the debris so my shoes wouldn't get hit, which was unsettling. The kicker was she then took that same broom she was sweeping the floor with and started vigorously sweeping off the crumbs on "the cushions" where people sit!! That grossed me out :( A clean warm towel to wipe the seating down would be more appropriate.

The entire restaurant is unorganized and an unwelcoming place to visit. Not a great option for the price. Will not go back. UPDATE for Angela, To clarify: when we arrived, no one acknowledged or seated us, so we walked through the restaurant ourselves to find someone and ask where we should sit. By "nowhere to sit," I meant there was no direction or organization regarding seating. Our food was brought out on serving trays/boards, but we were not provided plates, utensils, or napkins for our family, including our children. We ended up eating with our hands because no one checked back with us aside from removing seasoning shakers from another table to place on ours. The experience felt unorganized and unwelcoming because we consistently felt overlooked throughout the visit despite being polite and patient the entire time. I understand small businesses rely on reviews, which is why I only described our experience honestly rather than exaggerating it. I have also sent you an email to shed more light on our experience during our visit.

I placed my order and asked for muffins, but was told they were sold out. I could clearly see five on the counter, and the employee explained they were already spoken for. I mentioned my kid would be disappointed and asked if there was anything they could do. One employee immediately said no, while another kindly checked in the back and was able to find one muffin for us, which I appreciated. A little later I noticed packaged muffins in the display case and asked if I could buy those, but again was told no. Unfortunately, the experience only got worse from there. I realized after leaving that I never received the pizza I had ordered, and the avocado toast made me extremely sick. I spent the rest of the day dealing with what felt like serious food poisoning. I called afterward to request a refund ( I only asked to refund the avocado toast and the pizza) and left a voicemail. No one returned my call. I called again and spoke with someone who said the manager had just left and would call me back. Again, no response. They mentioned refunding my card and I gave my card digits, but I'm pretty sure I had actually paid cash. Either way, I mainly wanted to speak with a manager about the situation, and no one ever followed up. What's especially disappointing is that I live nearby, come here often, and genuinely love this place. That's why this experience was so frustrating. I understand busy weekends happen, but the lack of communication and follow-up after getting sick was really disappointing.

    Overall? who would've thought an English muffin could be the reason you drive somewhere twice?…read moreCertainly not me. It's one of those foods that usually exists in the background of breakfast, something you barely think about. Model Bakery comes along and casually reminds you that even simple things can be incredible when done properly. The place itself is straightforward with no real indoor seating that we saw, but there's a nice patio and the smell alone is enough to pull you in. Everything felt fresh and warm. We also grabbed a croissant, which absolutely held its own Parking? Lot We had English Muffin (5/5): these are absurdly good. The kind of thing you plan to buy one of and somehow leave with a dozen. They smell almost like donuts when they're warm, with this buttery, slightly sweet aroma that hits you before the first bite. Lightly toasted, they develop the perfect crunch on the outside while staying soft and airy inside. Honestly, all they need is butter. They're great on their own, even better with oatmeal and coffee Croissant (4.5/5): really solid croissant. Soft, buttery, and clearly made with care. It had that delicate pull and layered texture you want without becoming overly heavy or greasy. My only complaint is that it deserved butter and jam on the side to really complete the experience. Still, something I'd order again
