Whether you stop by for a refreshing beverage, a specialty salad or sandwich, or freshly baked breads, handmade chocolates, pastries, cookies, and tarts to take home, it will be a visit to remember.

Make the most of your visit. Enjoy a handcrafted coffee from longtime CIA partner and patron illy, a leader in sustainably produced, highest-quality Arabica coffee, from our full menu of hot and cold beverages. Choose to enjoy your selections either indoors or in a stunning al fresco setting. On the go? Let us know and we’ll pack-up everything for you to take on your travels through the Napa Valley.

The Bakery Café is a student-run, faculty-led teaching restaurant at CIA Greystone. These students are in their final courses, and will soon graduate to become top chefs or continue in their studies to become future leaders, entrepreneurs, or innovators in the food industry. Baking and Pastry Arts students spend their semester rotating through and perfecting various positions within the front- and back-of-house to gain the hands-on experience that prepares them for the industry.
