I dropped into Brasswood with a big, hungry group on a Sunday morning after struggling to decide where to have breakfast. We were absolutely delighted to have found this gem. We ordered coffees and breakfast at the counter inside, then spent a few minutes browsing the retail section while our coffee drinks were being prepared. My dirty chai latte was ready a few mins later, and I took it outside to one of the long tables near the fireplace and pizza oven (which wasn't in use early in the morning, but I look forward to trying next time!). The welcoming staff brought out my chilaquiles with avocado and green salsa a short while later. Around the table, the meals and drinks were total hits. Everything was absolutely delicious, packed with flavor, and fresh. Most people ordered breakfast burritos or chilaquiles, both of which I definitely recommend, but even the pastries inside looked tasty. Patio is also dog friendly and looks out over a nice courtyard!
Really cool property with a nice little outdoor area in front of the Bakery. I can imagine this being a super awesome place to grab a coffee daily if you live nearby. The coffee they serve is more Intelligentsia than Peet's in terms of flavor profile. Acidic and fruit forward. I got the breakfast burrito and it was solid, had fresh pico de gallo in it along with a generous amount of eggs. It was a bit bland though but putting some tapatio on it helped. However, it should have really came with some homemade green or red sauce on the side
This review is for the bakery. The whole location is a winery, tasting room, restaurant and bakery! The place is gorgeous and gives off the industrial modern vibes! We stopped by after our trip to Calistoga and grabbed some coffee / quick bite at the bakery. The latte was perfectly done and we loved our apple crumb cake. We sat on the patio by the fire and it was so cozy! Most of their pastries were already sold out by the time we got there so would recommend going early! The cook was making pizzas behind us and it smelt so good! Highly recommend!
I stopped by the bakery for a snack after doing some wine tasting. I ordered the mushroom pizza. They don't sell pizza by the slice so I ordered a whole one. It was good for two people. The cheese was creamy and there was a strong truffle taste. I would order this again and not share next time. Haha. I tried the peanut butter cookie. It was kind of dry and I think it would have been better without so many sugar crystals on top. I went on a rainy day, but on a sunny day it looks like it would be a cool place to have a picnic and sit outside. They have a nice fountain I would have loved to get closer to if it wasn't raining.
We were in the area and found this place on Yelp. I think we got here around 11:30am and didn't realize that breakfast stopped at 11am and most pastries were sold out by then :( Their pastries looked really good on Yelp so I was kind of disappointed that we didn't get to try them. Maybe next time! We ended up ordering truffle Parmesan fries and a grilled cheese to share. We didn't realize the grilled cheese also came with a side of fries. Yay more fries! Lol. They had a few tables inside and outdoor seating along the side. The front patio area was for the restaurant and wine tasting. The seats along the side of the bakery were fine and a big secluded from others so it was nice to have some privacy. The lady who rung us up was really nice, patient while we were figuring out what to order, brought our meal all the way to our table which I didn't expect and was nice and friendly overall. The truffle fries tasted super fresh and it went great with the aioli sauce. The grilled cheese was good as well. We would probably be back when we are in the area again.
Another one of those spots...you haven't been there, you don't know what you're missing . Fresh baked goods - check Fresh rich coffee- check Most amazing outside seating- check Terrific setting - check Room for your team or family - check Seasonal offerings - check Sandwiches - check Cocktails- check Pastas- check Breakfast or lunch = YES Wine - of course! LOVE this whole place
We stopped by Brasswood Bakery today on our way back from Calistoga and it didn't disappoint. The lawn + garden area is so nice, with a cool transparent-like fountain. 6 ft distance maintained between tables and all staffs wearing masks, it feels very safe and clean. The Bakery setup is very modern and stylish, with a very nice deck overlooking the lawn area. Limited pastry/dessert selection but highly recommend the coconut/chocolate macaroons! Would come back again and try their kitchen and bar.
Excellent food excellent cocktails and amazing wine list... must try. Stone fire pizza and table side bread a must try.
Just take my arm. $19 for a Poki bowl. I've attached a photo for reference. Let me tell you why I'm upset. I spent $40+ on 4 items: Poki bowl, iced mocha, cold brew, and cinnamon roll. The Poki bowl. Jesus. Only had a scoop of spicy tuna. Imagine going to those build your own Poki bowls with the tiny scoops. It was that small. The rest was just sauce, avo, greens and whatever. Tasty but I'm not paying for a salad. Iced mocha is just straight chocolate in my mouth. I even asked for less sweet. It would've been ok if it wasn't so frickin sweet. Cold brew was good - so you get 2 stars Cinnamon roll was great! Other than the fact that I now can't pay for my gas to go home. $6. Really. For a cinnamon roll that fit in my small hand.
I love walking into this place because the ambiance is so rustic and Napa-y. Very cute spot with lots of food and drink options from tea to specialty cocktails! The mushroom pizza is so good if you aren't a fan of red sauce but where the pizza is delicious, the Cesar salad is lacking. Maybe it's because I'm not a fan of wedge salads, but if you're looking for a way to get a quick workout in, look no further- this salad is your go to! Something kinda weird that happened was when they handed me my pizza and when I opened the box, THERE WAS AN EARWIG SQUIRMING AROUND NEAR THE PIZZA. I was so grossed out so I handed the box to the employees to help me with it and they picked off the bug and gave the pizza back to me. They just kinda gave me a weird look LIKE IT WAS MY FAULT THERE WAS A BUG. Otherwise the pizza was delicious.
This was a cute little cafe that also has restaurant. The cafe was clean and spacious that also played nice soothing music. The regular croissants and chocolate croissants tasted delicious and were very flaky. It was nice go a quick sweet treat or some to pick up to go for a day full of wine tasting.
Note the Brasswood Bar + Bakery is not the same as the Brasswood Bar + Kitchen. I think some reviewers are getting confused. The Bakery portion is out back behind the restaurant. Head here for more casual fare (think gourmet salads, sandwiches, and a few pastas), good coffee and homemade sweet treats. It's the quintessential Napa Valley "artisan culinary boutique" with fresh, seasonal ingredients and higher than average (and higher than necessary) prices. This is a great place to grab a picnic lunch or, when the weather's nice, sit on their outdoor patio. There are a couple of romantic outdoor fireplaces too, making it tolerable even in chilly weather. The Bakery opens at 8 am until about 5 pm, and it's one of my favorite hidden gems to stop off for an afternoon coffee and cookie. The menu is seasonal but you can find the current offerings online. The cookies and pastries mostly stay the same; I'm partial to the chocolate chip sea salt cookie and a classic espresso or cappuccino (cookies run about $2 and fancy coffees will set you back $3-$6). The scones ($3-$4) are things of beauty, and if the carrot cake (or any cake, for that matter) is on the menu, order it immediately. Ditto for the apple danish! I love how the portion sizes aren't out of control, they are reasonable for a nice snack for one. The service here is S-L-O-W no matter when you arrive or what you order. On my last visit, a cookie to share and two cappuccinos took nearly 15 minutes to be prepared, and we were the only customers in the place! I've only ordered sweets and coffee here and not an entree, but I have to wonder just how long it would take for the kitchen to put out a plate of pasta or a salad. There are some nice communal tables indoors where you can have your snack but outside on the patio is the best. The farmhouse ambience is charming, and the secret's not yet out about this place -- it's a comparable experience to the much more packed Bouchon Bakery in Yountville. Is this as good as Bouchon Bakery? Nah, but it's on par with the CIA Illy Cafe for sure. (NOTHING beats Thomas Keller's Bouchon Bakery). Overall a great, quiet and secluded place to escape from the hustle and bustle of Highway 29's crowded tasting rooms.
Great vibe here! Food was delicious! The fire after we ate was so warm! Loved it and that along with the service from Giana was a topper!

I enjoy dropping into Brasswood for a casual lunch. I haven't tried their restaurant yet, but their bar/bakery is a nice, chill spot. The pizza is baked literally right outside in the pizza oven, so it's very fresh. Comes gooey, thin, not overtly baked. Really good. We've tried a few items before: pizza, sandwich, caesar salad. The caesar salad is whole stalks so knife and fork situation, which I enjoy on occasion because the caesar dressing doesn't overly coat the lettuce. There was also two anchovies, which I like to eat in bites with the lettuce. Refreshing salad, solid caesar dressing, and the croutons weren't too crunchy. read more

The interior design was such an aesthetic setup but we decided to sit outside. The panna cotta was quite sweet and the top portion was a some kind of caramel layer that reminded me of brown sugar boba. The iced americano was refreshing and pretty typical. This bakery/cafe is near the restaurant and has a great overall vibe. read more

This is a bar bakery cafe. No reservations. They have two large tables inside along with some smaller tables on the side. Food was delicious! We ordered the one minute mozzarella (absolute must!), truffle mushroom pizza, margherita pizza, chicken sandwich, truffle fries along with some cocktails. Everything was well made. Fresh ingredients and the flavors were on point. The cocktails were great (gin and tonic, mimosa and margarita) A nice change up after all the wine. The grounds also has a tasting room and restaurant with more formal dining. However the cafe was perfect for a quick bite before we went on to our next winery! Would definitely come back! read more

Fantastic service, wonderful food and one of the best wine lists around. The service was exemplary, I could not say enough about how well I was treated by Eileen. I would recommend Brasswood if you're going up the valley. Their food and wine program have a symbiotic relationship which makes the restaurant very special. read more

Every time I visit Brasswood bakery the employees are always so nice. They have delicious pastries, and their outside patio is perfect for a fancier breakfast date. With that said you should arrive before 10:30am if you want to try the pastries. They run out by 11ish...highly recommend but giving 4 stars because they made my drink wrong. The barista was nice and fixed it immediately. read more
Just stopped in for coffee! Reasonable prices friendly staff place was very clean besides for the flies. I was going to order a cinnamon roll but the one I wanted had a fly on it just can't go there! Great place to just chill outside on a nice day with a cup of coffee! read more

After camping for a few days my partner and I were ready to reemerge back to civilization. After some research we decided to check this place out and I am so happy we did! Right when we stepped on the grounds we were greeted not once but twice; making sure we were not lost, welcoming us to the place etc. It was so nice to have that warm hospitality even when we were in our exploration mode. This establishment has a casual cafe, restaurant, wine tasting rooms and private tastings. The cafe vibe continued the friendly vibe and the food was delicious. I had the smoked salmon bagel sandwich and the beet salad. The in house bagel was the perfect texture of perfectly toasted exterior and soft pillowy interior. The beet salad was delicious with the fresh arugula and goat cheese. My only complaint about the salad is they didn't prep some of the beets properly- biting into those stringy roots is no fun. They have lovely outside seating that looks out onto their well maintained property. If you are ever in this area I would definately recommend you come check it out! Until next time! read more

I came here on a Saturday afternoon. There was plenty of parking. They weren't packed. Our driver recommended this place for a quick bite. They have a very scenic and relaxing set up that is shared with the main restaurant area and tasting place. We arrived and they had a variety of tasty treats, however they were out of basic items on a Saturday winter afternoon. They had no chips, limited treats etc. We got our sandwiches in a timely manner and departed being hungry 10 minutes later because lack of a side to fully fill you up and the portion of the sandwich was small. The staff seemed nice to my party and we are appreciative, however we were drinking tons of wine, were on a time limit, and super hungry. We came to this place because we had limited time and figured it was easiest to get a quick bite being it was a bakery then go to the next wine place. I don't recommend for the small portions, lack of options to eat, etc. When we come back for our trip next year I will skip this place unless they seem to have drastic changes. read more
