"Interior seating is limited, so a gravel-laden patio is made available to enjoy breakfast and lunch." Full review
"Details at celeb-chef Thomas Keller’s French brasserie are so impeccable – zinc bar to white-aproned waiters – you’d swear you were in Paris." Full review
"Bouchon makes as-good-as-in-Paris French pastries and strong coffee. There's always a line and rarely a seat: get it to go." Full review
"To satisfy that craving you didn't know you had—but soon will—for macarons, stock up on hazelnut, pistachio, chocolate-dipped raspberry, and several other flavors at this bakery." Full review
"The bistro is a French affair, with things like oysters and steak frites and salad Lyonnaise peppering the menu...there are white tablecloths nonetheless, and an impressive wine list to boot." Full review
"There’s usually a line outside, but everything inside is worth it. Our favorite thing to do is grab a few loaves of bread on our way out of Napa, and eat all of them before we get back to the city." Full review
"Well worth the wait for Thomas Keller's baked goodies from this charming Yountville boulangerie-pâtisserie." Full review
"The attraction: a (relatively) affordable taste of world-famous chef Thomas Keller’s greatness in the form of awesome coffee, freshly baked breads (and sandwiches), luscious pastries, and salads." Full review
