Delicious sandwiches that were grab and go. Pretty affordable for the area. My sandwich was chicken Caesar and was delicious!

Just out throwing eggs at the ex-Speakers house out on Zinfandel Lane when one of the local Revenuers stopped to see what was going on. We're only checking out the accuracy of this new Trebuchet we tell him...."See the placement there around the front door area, it's tuned in just right" He agrees, and offers to buy us lunch at the Station St. Helena, and laugh about it. He recommended the Carb free Turkey Club, ..And, let me tell you...It was Amazing! ☆☆☆☆☆

Very cute but TERRIBLE pastry. Maybe worst almond croissant I’ve ever had. Burned and dry. May need to hop a flight to Paris to erase the memory.

For a place that bills itself as a quick stop for fresh food, the service we experienced was unbelievably poor.
My wife and I ordered some snacks out of the case. That's it -- no prepared food, no drinks. Several groups in front of us had ordered salads and this seemed to overwhelm the kitchen. Salads were made and presented to the person working the window, but nobody seemed to know whose food was whose, and there were stretches of a minute or more while staff just stared at screens trying to figure out what to do.
We waited over 20 minutes for something that they could have reached over and handed to us as soon as we paid.
The food itself was pretty good. However, I would not come back.

Roadside coffee plus light food eatery in the heart of St Helena. The outdoor space is lovely, especially given that it is in a very busy, noisy commercial part of town. They still make it welcoming and inviting. The beverages are quite high quality, maybe not artisanal level, but close to. The food, which is a combination of baked goods, sandwiches and breakfast wraps are tasty, albeit somewhat bland in some cases and not much in terms of testing or innovating with new items. The menu has not changed much in well over a year. Where they fall short is in service. Their mobile ordering is a disaster. I can order on Toast or Doordash for pickup and have to wait and wait, waiting for my order longer than when people just walk up and place an order. If I use mobile order and arrive, I will see 3,4,5,6 people walk up and have their orders filled before I ever get mine. And this is like for like. Meaning similar items being ordered. They deprioritize mobile to the point of it being a really bad experience. As of this writing, I am waiting almost an hour for a simple mobile order while countless customers have their walk up orders filled. The old saying is meet the customer where they want to do business, and the Station clearly has not gotten the message. Even when you do get your order the full rates are poor. On numerous occasions the order is not filled correctly with the wrong items being made or included in the order. Given their super premium prices, it's really not acceptable.

It’s a gas station with insanely good food. Yes, lots of (outside) tables. Dogs are welcome.

Yes, it is a gas station, but a very good one, not only is the food service quite tasty, but it even has merchandising from the establishment
Stopped here for a lunch while staying in St. Helena. Very impressive how fresh the premade chicken caesar focaccia wrap was. Quick ordering and delivery. Really cool the combination of a working gas station and bakery/bistro.

Ordered a large takeout coffee order with pastries. All orders were ready, labelled and packaged for carryout. Decided on some pastries, some better than others. Great and friendly staff that made this an easy choice to return to since there are quite a coffee choices in St Helena. It's open seating with a cool vibe and kept clean with tables and umbrellas.

Absolutely a perfect pizza. The crust was perfection. There was enough cheese, but not too much. Same with the delicious sauce. Simply perfect!!!
Food was A1. Especially their almond croissants.
