The Meal:
Oakville Grocery was my first stop in Napa many years ago when we stopped to pick up sandwiches for lunch so it holds a special place in my heart. In addition to sandwiches, cheeses, breads and salads, they sell an assortment of wines, wine country mementos and sauces/spreads. They often have olive oils or mustards out for sampling which is a fun distraction while waiting for your order to be ready. In addition to sandwiches, they also offer boxed lunches complete with drinks, dessert and a side. These seem overpriced in my mind at at least $18 (sandwiches start at $9.95).
On our most recent trip, we had sandwiches from Oakville Grocery and the Dry Creek General Store on back-to-back days. What was very apparent is that the Dry Creek General Store won the head-to-head battle hands-down. Better bread, more meat, and a better price make it our preferred choice when touring the wineries of Sonoma County. On the Napa side, though, Oakville is still a decent option.

Recommended food:The sandwiches are quite good. I recommend buying individual sandwiches and sides over the box lunches they sell.
