to be in the towns we are staying. We are open to all kinds of restaurants as long as the food is good and nobody is rushing us. Our list so far: Calistoga: - Wappo Grill (1226 Washington St) - Brannans (1374 Lincoln Ave.) -...

at a reasonable price. I’d also appreciate a recommendation for Sunday night dinner in Calistoga. We ate at the Calistoga Inn on our last trip. Thanks in advance!

is about 10 miles up the road from Napa proper and is more famous for its mud baths and hot springs, which I also highly recommend), I really recommend the Calistoga Inn. It’s a European B&B with pub, a beautiful outdoor...

I second the wappo bar, even the water is good there. :) go have a beer at calistoga inn, don’t bother with dinner. but can have a nice local vibe in the bar. drinks at hydro are also good, but don’t eat there. go to...

Someone posted the names of a number of Wine Country spots open for Thanksgiving, this was a couple or three weeks ago, and it included Brix, Solbar, Calistoga Inn, Brannan’s, Celandon, Etoile, Dry Cereek Kitchen, etc. and...

Napa wine country is fairly large, and has restaurants in downtown Napa, Yountville, St. Helena, and Calistoga. As I recall, Calistoga, the furthest north, is about 45 minutes drive from downtown Napa. Are you focused primarily...

Hubbie & I will be in Napa and San Francisco for 6 nights. We’re staying in a “nice” B&B in Calistoga so decided to go “economy” in San Francisco. We’ll be in a motor inn in Cow Hollow. Can you...

You can eat very well in Napa Valley without breaking the bank. Go to the bar at the Calistoga Inn. Great beer and it’s a fun place. There is a restaurant that is good as well and if the weather is nice, it’s wonderful...

Calistoga Inn. Great breakfasts at Sarafornia. Auberge is so expensive and only so-so for all money. Lots better food elsewhere for far less. But, the view is great. Go there and have a tail/glass of wine around sunset. Go...

While kids are in camp this summer, my husband and I are planning a quick trip to San Fran and wine region. Looking for some GREAT off beat and “must-try” restaurants and ideas for hotels/Inns. Should we stay in Napa...

have stayed several times- and the Mount View Hotel in Calistoga where we stayed once about 20 years ago and enjoyed their pool and restaurant. They still have a pool, still have a restaurant, but the latter is no longer...

I think we are likely to make the decision to switch and go eat at meadowood. By chance how far are these places from the Carneros region, or more specific to stay in calistoga(which we have planned) or carneros(carneros inn)...
