Norman Rose Tavern

1401 1st St, Napa, CA 94559, USA

Downtown Napa has no shortage of bars, but a stellar food menu makes the Norman Rose Tavern, located in an old bank building across the street from the Andaz Napa hotel, a step above. Items include steamed mussels, salads, pulled-pork nachos, burgers, and the fan favorite: a buttermilk fried-chicken sandwich, served with arugula, red onion, and peppercorn dressing. Larger plates feature steaks and half-chickens; these easily could be shared by two. Of course the bar menu at the Norman Rose is a big draw, too, and the bar regularly has at least a dozen wines by the glass and local microbrews on tap.
