St. Helena. The downtown offers quaint

galleries to stroll through. Just a quick five-minute

wine tasting is your choice,

wineries in the Napa Valley. Everyone needs to eat and
where better to do so than at a world-class restaurant

delights to satisfy any craving varying from local California
cuisine to Pacific coast seafood and Italian flavors

Things to Do
St. Helena’s downtown is perfect for an afternoon
stroll. Whether it’s a hammer you are looking
for or French country décor, the downtown offers
a variety of
shopping. To satisfy your hunger,
we suggest
dining at any of the world-class restaurants
and bistros located in St. Helena. Most restaurants
will be completely booked for dining on any given weekend.
We highly recommend making reservations at least 2 –
4 weeks in advance. Some of our favorite choices for
dining in St. Helena are Cook (bistro setting),
Cindy’s
back street kitchen , Silverado Brewing Company
(great for families & large groups) and Gillwoods
(for breakfast-get there early!). Another favorite is
Auberge du Soleil in Rutherford off of the Silverado
Trail.
Some of the top wineries in the world are located in
St. Helena. Visit any one of these wineries and enjoy
a tasting (for a small fee) of some of finest wines
in the world! Some of our favorites include
Beringer
Winey which is a five minute walk from Casa de Vigna
and
Freemark Abbey just 5 minutes north on hwy.
