"From the moment Bouchon Bakery opened 20 years ago, there have been round-the-clock lines out the door, with tourists and locals waiting for a whiff and bite of the namesake “bouchons” (a cork-shaped, dark chocolate chewy-crisp brownie), bread, pastries, and thick hot chocolate. And we’re here to tell you, Bouchon Bakery is absolutely worth the wait. If you're going to brave the line, order as much as humanly possible—we like the ham and cheese baguette, cheese roll, passion fruit and caramel macarons, lemon tart, and the OhOh, a decadent take on a ho-ho. Even if you order ahead you’ll be standing around for a bit, but the payoff is some of the best baked goods in all of Napa Valley. " - christina julian, andrew steinthal

"Another mandatory stop on the Thomas Keller tour of Napa, Bouchon is Keller's take on casual French bistro food. It's sort of impossible to call out the best menu items because everything is great. Bonus: they have a late-night menu, which can be a game-changer on a long Napa night after too many wine tastings."

"Working at Bouchon Bakery as an overnight baker was the hardest job I’ve ever had. I calculated how much dough I moved in one day and it was an insane amount, like 600 pounds." - Cathy Chaplin
