I believe I had the Reuben sandwich when I was here. I didn't love it, but there are a few others I would love to try It was very yummy and of course for Reuben lovers you should get one But I think for me, I just think they are mediocre sandwich sandwiches in general and don't love them read more

A must for a pit stop if you're in Napa, located by the Oxbow Market! They have all things charcuterie- meats, cheeses, bread, crackers, etc. Love how there's no set amount on how much you have to get. You can choose to get a few slices of a particular meat, cheese, pate, so you're able to really customize your charcuterie board. Great for portion control too. I got the small charcuterie board, which really highlights what they have to offer. What's unique is that they also offer duck pate! Service is friendly! Outdoor seating only. read more

Fatted Calf Charcuterie - Small charcuterie with added duck pate - Meat Shops Near Me - Napa, California

Small shop in Napa located at or near the Oxbow Market. This place serves as a deli, a butcher shop, and purveyor of fine, curated goods. The space isn't large and the service is really friendly so it gives that vibe/ charm of a small town deli shop. I was visiting the Napa area with my parents and my mom wanted to pick up some charcuterie meats. Saw this place and am really glad we went! Other than deli type items behind the counter, they have a lot of goods on the shelves like imported tin fish, specialty snacks, etc. Seems like a beloved place to grab lunch as well. read more

Fresh pastries being made daily. Conveniently located in downtown Napa. Definitely worth checking out. read more

The Fatted Calf is a charming butcher shop that's well worth a stop. The shop is small but has a warm, inviting interior, with a few outdoor seats if you'd like to enjoy a snack. In addition to high-quality meats, they offer a wonderful selection of pantry items and specialty foods. Service was exceptional. We sampled two different types of salami, and both were absolutely delicious. It's the perfect place to pick up picnic supplies or gourmet treats to enjoy later. read more

This is a small place next to Oxbow market. There's a bigger version inside the ferry building in San Francisco. We ordered a pound of the porchetta for dinner and a side of Giardiniera. It was across the street from where we just had lunch at Scala Osteria. We got a lot of attention right away. Since most things are weighed per pound, you have to ask for specific things and they will then get it for you. They had a number of beans from Rancho Gordo. I found out about the pickled vegetables from a Rancho Gordo email stating that theirs was the best. They had a small container for $10 in the fridge by the pound. They had a number of gourmet sandwiches that you can't find anywhere else. My husband loves porchetta sandwiches from Sausalito at the Joinery. That's why we had to come here when we found out that they had porchetta sandwiches freshly made. They also sell raw porchetta and porchetta shoulder for 16 and 10 respectively. We opted to buy the cooked porchetta for $20 a pound. The staff member instructed us to bake it at 250° in the loosely wrapped foil for 15 minutes to freshen it up. I'll give an update after we eat it. :) read more

It has been too long since I've been back to Fatted Calf and it is as good as I remember it! I only ordered the porchetta sandwich because I was going to a concert afterwards (Johnny Marr at the Uptown Theater in Napa- superb!). The sandwich was perfect! Crisp bread, delicious balance of meat, vegetables, oil and herbs. I will be thinking about it how soon I can come back for another. There is outdoor seating available. The deli counter is very tempting and the decor is charmingly rustic with a gourmet flair. The staff were wonderful about being conscious about my allergies. read more

I always stop by the Fatted Calf when I'm in Napa to pick up prosciutto. I love a good charcuterie tray and they always have the best selection of meats! Not to mention they have sandwiches, soups, wine, beef jerky and so much more! This place is a hidden gem for a bite to eat, especially if you want a little snack, you can get a little bit of prosciutto, salami and cheese with a grab and go drink and sit at the park that's right next to this place. I always have quick service and the meat selection is written out on the menu with prices and there is plenty to look at in the glass case too. If you need a special meat or fat, this is the place to come! read more

My husband and I stopped by here last minute on a whim while going on a random weekday drive. We were looking for a little snack and found this deli, and I'm glad we did! It's a pretty small deli located near a brewery and I believe a public market. Parking is not the best but we were able to squeeze into the nearby parking lot. The interior is cute, I'll be at small. It's like a small deli front with sandwiches and a couple of like jarred or canned things or dried things that you could shop for, but the focus is really the deli here. This review is for the deli sandwich only, we can't comment on the other deli products, though it seems like their customers love their products and they were really helpful and friendly to everyone looking We got the muffaletta. Unfortunately, they were out of the standard bread so we swapped it for a baguette and no regrets. The sandwich itself was so good nice and salty, intense flavors, but also melt in your mouth. We're so glad we decided to stop by here and I definitely would like to come back to try their other sandwiches and maybe their deli offerings. read more

I love fatted calf! My favorite thing which is behind the counter are their homemade tarts! Savory buttery crust and delicious. You gotta grab a slice when you're there. When it comes to meat, I get everything here. Pork and beef. All the products are amazing, the staff is always attentive and knowledgeable, there's not a question. You could ask that they don't know the answer to. Everything here is top-notch! read more

On our last day in Napa, I stopped by Fatted Calf for some snacks for the plane ride as well as some souvenirs for friends. I purchased two of their Jambon Buerre sandwiches, some artisanal salt, house-made Rosemary Almonds, and a few packs of smallish pork sausages from the deli case. It's a gourmand's shop with lots of enticing meats in the case. They've stopped serving soup on their menu, but still sell it in frozen quarts in a freezer case. read more

Very high end with high quality meats. We got the sandwiches with were tasty, very simple with good ingredients on Acme bread. The Jamon and truffle butter sandwich was good, but a bit over powering on the truffle flavor, not for everyone. The prosciutto sandwich was great with jam and basil. Definitely more European stay esandwiches than American. read more

Went to Model Bakery next door and checked out Fatted Calf Menu while waiting. They have a small selection of sandwiches in addition to a ton of cured and fresh meats to buy. I had to try one of their sandwiches. Ordered their Jamon-Beurre De Truffle sandwich. To be honest the sandwich is on the small side for $14.00 and relatively basic bread, smear and meat. But the sandwich was very tasty and the butter smear was very good. I could have eaten another half to get full. Folks inside were very nice and offered our dog a beef treat which was very nice of them. They also gave us a sample of cured meat while we waited for the sandwich so they are customer service oriented There is no seating inside but outside there are covered tables and chairs so you can enjoy your meal right there. Made it a nice place to eat and chill. read more

We stopped by today on our way to our lake house and oh my gosh this place is amazing. For one thing when you walk in the smell is so yummy. We wanted to get a sandwich and they had such a variety, meatloaf, roast, beef, etc., but we settled on the Porchetta. It was divine. I highly recommend this place. The service was really nice also. Not much ambience because you can't sit inside and eat, but right outside are lots of tables to sit at. It's right next-door to Oxbow market and model bakery so you have a lot of choices for extra goodies to eat. Also, the parking isn't great but it's not bad either. read more

So many choices for lunch in downtown Napa! We are so glad we chose to eat here. Great sandwiches, salads and wine. What a fun surprise. Highly recommend read more

Stopped in to grab sandwiches haven't been to Napa in years this was a place I visited with my mom and was excited to get sandwiches to take back with me for her. We used to bring my kids here when they were little now they are out of college so wanted to bring them to the places we ate when they were little when we visited Napa. Lady behind the counter today was not pleasant at all I asked how to pronounce sandwich name so I could say it correctly and she had a quick attitude. I was with my family wasn't going to match her rude energy on such a beautiful day. Glad food is still as delicious as it was when I came in years ago. Hopefully her customer service will improve or she will have a better day tomorrow. read more

If you love charcuterie, The Fatted Calf is heaven on earth. I've had charcuterie all over California and beyond, and this place is hands down the best. It reminds me of Boccalone in the San Francisco Ferry Building (RIP 2017), and honestly, it might even surpass it. The mortadella, salami, and prosciutto here are flawless, perfectly seasoned, melt in your mouth, and just the right balance of salt and richness. If you're into "salted pig parts," this is where you want to be. I can't stay away, every trip to Napa includes a stop here. Beyond the charcuterie, they're a full butcher shop. You can pick up beautiful cuts of meat, housemade beef jerky, and even beef dog treats that my pup goes crazy for. Every product feels crafted with care. A true gem and an absolute delight. If you appreciate top tier meats, make this your first stop in Napa, you'll leave spoiled for anything else. read more

This little gem of a market hiding just outside the corner of Oxbow Marketplace is the Ideal spot to grab a casual can or bottled libation!

Wow high quality ingredients for sandwiches. I tried the sandwiches as takeout. Jambon truffle was tons of thinly sliced ham with lots!!! of truffle butter ( i thought it was cheese lol). Rich Aromatic and flavorful. Muffuletta was cold cuts, cheese, and olive relish on focaccia. Tasty. Relish gives it a pop of flavor to accent the coldcuts. Oily salty goodness. I called the sf location for more information on the menu and catering options. Nice staff. I cant comment on ambiance but the food is high quality casual. Lots of options for company catering and meat lovers. read more

We travel up to Fatted Calf at least twice a year & gather up some great goodies. Absolutely love their pate de maison, always grab some charcuterie for an evening or two snacking. We also look for quality cuts of beef or lamb to dine on as a special treat for making the drive up there. We have been "bitten by" the Fatted Calf" bug & will scratch that itch as often as possible‼ read more

Charcuterie for everyone! A Napa find. The Fatted Calf butcher shop -in the Oxbow Market- offers a wonderful selection of charcuterie, sauages, cured meats, butchery and fabulous gourmet sandwiches to go. We came here for the delicious jerky and expertly crafted sandwiches -but-of course-we always leave with much more. Everything they offer is gourmet and crafted with the best ingredients. You can't resist buying more! Service: Exceptional and welcoming staff! read more

Good product and my go to spot when im in the area! A go to with your pork and amazing selections overall!

If you like salami, bacon or cured meats this is your place. People come for the Mortadella. I came late to order a sandwich which was a bummer but there was one loaf of bread left to buy. Got 2 of the MANY salami choices, if I was really going for it I could have bought the truffle butter to put on the bread too but then How would I travel home with and open ~sealed plastic of Butter? Oh the tough choices we make when we ip off to wine country for a few hours and try new foods. Sauccison Sec (most like Genoa and least fatty) and the Toscana (bits of Fat and Black pepper!) salami, both were excellent, 2 packs of Bacon (3 and they give you a deal) and it was so hot I decided on a beer that was SO good an still having trouble finnding it. It was so light and refreshing, Kolsch type beer in yellow can, Occidental brewers? Perfect wait out the traffic snack spot with picnic tables out front, next to Model Bakery English Muffins and then next to Gott' Roadside on the corner. There is a parking lot next to the Fatted calf. Restrooms behind the building in the upper stairs food Hall bit. A lot to see in this little block. I gotta come back. read more

Services always good quick and polite. The sandwich I got today was less than par. It was a pastrami sandwich that was mostly fat The meat was barely chewable it was so tough it should have been jerky The bread itself had so much liquid up I don't know what on it it just disintegrated when I picked it up very disappointed that I drove across town to get a sandwich at padded calf. read more

Such friendly service, especially on a Saturday morning when everyone is scrambling for snacks for their wine trips or meats for weekend entertaining. My husband and I had a full day planned in Napa and were going to wineries that allowed us to bring in our own picnic. We decided to get our main lunch items here. They have premade sandwich du jour options, tinned fish, you can opt to get your meat of choice by the Lb. OR what we did- a small charcuterie offering which was not on the menu. The sandwich I picked was a Reuben-ish combo and it was everything. Even though it was premade it still was super fresh and it was already cut in Half which made it perfect for sharing. Our small charcuterie box is perfect for two people to share with other things. It came with pickles, pate/head cheese, other cold cuts, cheese and sliced bread points. read more

By pure luck we found this shop. The name caught our attention and after a little curious looking we found ourselves walking right in! Size is not everything. Fatted calf's counter has all a meat lover could want and more. There is beef, local lamb, poultry, pates, salumi, fresh sausage, pasture raised heritage pork, and heaps more! Interior interesting as the meats they have on display. Take a moment to see what their website has to tell you https://www.fattedcalf.com/index.php. From their background and love for what they do. There are two locations with a link to the menu for each one. There are weekend specials and daily lunch offerings that rotate. They even have classes. How unique! To teach others how to butcher a lamb/pig, sausage making, and curing meats. We were encouraged to try the picnic plate ($15.00) that has bread, cheese, pickled vegetables, and a selection of charcuterie. Ordinary to the eye, but the textures and flavors were all there. So much so, we went back to bring their quality product back home with us. You can gather all the accompaniments for a charcuterie board right there. If you rather, pre-order ahead for a charcuterie board to be made for your next special gathering. They give you portions of what you desire and individually wrap each product. Patient as they are, samples are allowed before making a commitment! We ended up getting the berkshire salami, lonza, prosciutto, and pate maison. When you visit, try the pate maison. As with it all, it is especially delicious! I will be frequenting this place more often when I want to make charcuterie boards! read more

We found this establishment just by chance. My wife and I in January was staying overnight in Napa for a company celebration dinner/event. We had time to kill before our dinner celebration so took a walk on the town. Great area to walk BTW.... So we went to the Oxbow marketplace and on our way back found this small store. Charcuterie in its name just Grabbed me. We love creating boards for social events. So we went in, the staff was excellent, they had so many varieties of cured meats. They let us sample as many as we wanted and was very informative about the each product. Think Wine Tasting but with meat. Since we were in a hotel room we pickup up just a small sampling of two for our room to enjoy with some wine and cheese. Needless to say, I took an 1.5 hour round trip from the East Bay just to buy their products for an event we planned for a social at our home. I would 110% recommend this establishment. So the picks below are just our boards we made. I'll make sure I take pics of their store on my next visit read more

This is a review of the sandwiches. I asked what their best sandwich was and they suggested the ham sandwich. The truffe or something like that. The sandwiches are pre made. Not made to order. The truffle butter tasted great, probably the best part of the sando. The bread was ultra hard. My mouth hurt eating it and I have an intense bite. Come for a quick sandwich before your day drinking. But there are better options for sandwiches in the Napa valley. People were ultra nice and the store was very clean with many options. I have to try the charcuterie read more

Julian is amazing!!! This place couldn't run without him. Ask for his advice on ANYTHING. Finally feel like I know how to cook.

If you want salami, this is the place to go. It was very tasty and very delicious. The ambience was quite cute and the service was friendly.

Hello I have been enjoying the food here for several months now and I must say the meats here are unparalleled in quality and in taste. I have had the pastrami and its the best!the Salamis are spicy and delicious, the pork shoulder is so good I crave it, and the sandwiches are really well put together with gourmet ingredients like field greens, olive tapenade, brie cheese and delicious pickled cabbage. I will continue ordering food here and looking forward to more delicious surprises. read more

Welcome to meat lovers paradise! The Fatted Calf is the place you come to make a killer charcuterie board that will wow all your guests. They have excellent customer service with friendly, knowledgeable staff. So many meat options to choose from and a plethora of other jams, marinades, pickled treats, and goodies to accompany your purchase. I ordered the picnic plate and it was the perfect on the go lunch. It is three different types of meats, a good amount of sliced cheese, gherkins, and bread. It normally comes with mortadella (which I'm not keen on) and when they saw my apprehension they immediately suggested a different meat to sub and I thought that was pretty cool of them. I can't wait to return to try the croque monseiur with egg and the classic meatloaf.... and basically everything else on the menu! read more

I'd never been to the Napa one but it's as good as the ones in SF (though I guess it's just the ferry building now). I got this lamb patty that tasted great as well as this duroc pork salami type thing which is one of the better salamis I've ever had. Not too dried out, piquant. Really good stuff but what you expect from Fatted Calf. read more

I've been a long time fan of eating from the Fatted Calf. My faves include the chorizo, all the pâtés, duck stuff, beef ribs and mortadella because everything's just so tasty! Only a heaven of savory goodness--without any bloat or sweat seshs on the bathroom ;) Today was the first time I took a class--and I'm hooked. Taylor (the founder, I almost died from fan girling inside) and David led us through 4 sausages: from mixing, casing, and I'm sure all of the other cool technical terms for everything we learned in a safe, super sanitary environment, with snacks (Fatted Calf cold cuts and fresh out of the oven mushroom tart.) All those goodies came home with us along with a 10% discount for anything else we wanted to buy. This was a birthday present for my boyfriend, and I think I've won the best girlfriend ever trophy, except jokes on him--I think I had way more fun in class. Everyone was super chill, and we got to see around the kitchen and appreciate how such a small team can achieve so much. As a teacher myself, I can see how Taylor was made for this. We left feeling so great and can't wait to join another class, and in the meantime, finishing eating through their display case. read more
