The only thing better than a great food and beverage pairing? Getting it for a deal. They don’t call it “Happy Hour” for nothing — no matter which of these Napa eateries you decide to spend your evening at, you’re sure to leave with a smile on your face. Enjoy mouthwatering bites, refreshing cocktails and, of course, lush glasses of wine, all for a wallet-friendly price. (And since you’ll be saving some cash, you won’t have to feel bad about shopping for souvenirs later in the trip. We call that Napa math!)
Happy hour prices and offerings are, of course, always subject to change, so be sure to check with the individual businesses for the most up-to-date information before you make your plans.
