Located just north of downtown St. Helena, Brasswood Bar + Kitchen, on the Brasswood Estate, is a comprehensive Napa Valley winery destination. It includes multiple tasting rooms, indoor and outdoor dining, a full bar, an Estate Sommelier–curated sensory room, and a bottle shop. Open daily, this casual yet refined wine country establishment is known for its wine and food pairings and on-site bakery, drawing wine country visitors year-round with peak crowds during summer and early fall. Reservations are recommended, though walk-ins are accepted based on availability.
Why we like it:
Brasswood Bar + Kitchen makes it easy to experience both exceptional food and wine in one spot—open daily in the heart of St. Helena, it’s perfect for when you want a winery estate experience without the fuss. Splurge on their signature four-course wine and food pairing to taste Brasswood Cellars wines alongside seasonal dishes, or keep it casual with lunch or dinner at the bar—either way, it’s ideal for groups and anyone who wants great wine country dining without feeling overly formal.
