Coffee Shops in Napa, California

Explore the best coffee shops in the city of Napa right here. You'll soon discover this renowned wine region also takes its coffee seriously.

Some shops are quaint, and others a bit quirky -- but, it's what's in the cup that counts. I've rounded up some of the finest places to savor a latte, espresso, cappuccino, plus other specialty drinks that are worth a stop. Of course, there's something here for tea drinkers, too... as well as plenty of breakfast treats.

Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Company

This charming coffee shop is housed in a landmark Victorian building along the river. Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Company opened its doors in 1985, becoming one of the first local coffee roasting companies in Napa Valley. 

Beans are roasted in small batches to ensure the best flavor of the 9 or 10 single-origin coffees. From the tummy-warming Snuggler (deliciously made with Ghirardelli cocoa and a splash of peppermint), cinnamon-spiced Cubano, and White Chocolate Mocha... to the all-out scrumptious Snickerdoodle Latte, Lavender Vanilla, and the double-shot Shakerato (shaken and served martini style), and so many more... you'll love trying the innovative favorites offered here. And you'll want to nibble the pastries, muffins, and cookies from local bakeries.

Ritual Coffee Roasters

The seductive aroma of roasting coffee will lure you to this open coffee bar at the north end of the Oxbow Public Market. Ritual Coffee Roasters sources quality coffee from small, sustainable farms to ensure the highest standard. Try the seasonal espresso, cold brew, or mocha latte... or one of many specialty teas. 

Founded by Eileen Rinaldi, this popular downtown napa coffee shop has been here since 2008, after getting off to a successful start in San Francisco 3 years earlier. There may now be more competition for top-quality coffee in Napa Valley than in the past, but I don't believe you'll find any better.

The Model Bakery

The Model Bakery in Napa is known for freshly baked artisan breads, pastries, and breakfast sandwiches on their world-famous English muffins (truly, they are worth the visit). And the addition of rich, bold coffee is all you need to begin your day in Napa Valley.

Stop in for a honey bun, scone, muffin, lemon bar or other scrumptious treat to go with your flavorful brew. Or grab lunch... you'll discover lots of sandwiches, salads, and desserts to tempt you.

Naysayer Coffee Roasters

Tucked in the bustling Food City strip mall in Napa, Naysayer Coffee Roasters is a family-owned, local shop delivering high-quality coffee with a conscience. All of the green coffee is directly traded with farmers from all over the world and roasted right here.

Wait till you taste Ethiopia Shantawene Washed, made with dried apricot, white tea, and sauvignon blanc. Or savor Realistic, brewed with white nectarine, tootsie roll, and maple syrup. Try the eye-opener Bright Side Espresso, flavored with cocoa puffs, clove, and strawberry. Plus, you'll delight in seasonal specialties, top-notch teas, and classic lattes.

You'll discover healthy breakfast options that'll tantalize your taste buds. Dig into the Strauss yogurt bowl made with local Eden Cashew Almond Apricot Granola, topped with seasonal fruit and drizzled with honey. Or try smashed banana toast topped with tahini, maple, and cinnamon. This is just a small taste of what you'll find on the menu. One of the friendliest, most creative coffee shops in Napa, this is a fun spot to grab a cup and a quick bite.

Peet's Coffee 

Peet's got its start in Berkeley, California way back in 1966. Founder Alfred Peet introduced America to rich, complex roasts, starting a gourmet coffee revolution like Americans had never tasted before. Today, there are 286 Peet's Coffee shops in the U.S., most of them right here in California.

This Napa coffee shop opens bright and early. Make this your first stop in town for a white chocolate mocha, matcha protein latte, or caramel macchiato. Prefer tea? You won't be disappointed with Peet's chai latte, mighty loose leaf teas, or an iced organic matcha. Hungry? Dig in to a bacon & cheddar brioche or roasted tomato focaccia. You're sure to find plenty to satisfy your morning cravings.
