Boon Fly Café is quite popular with the locals, always a good sign for a restaurant. We enjoyed three meals there while guests at Carneros Inn — two breakfasts (Virtuoso guests get a daily breakfast credit, currently $40 per day and going up to $60 per day in 2017) and our Thanksgiving dinner.
If you arrive for breakfast between 8 and 9 a.m., you'll likely have to wait for a table because, as noted above, the place is extremely popular with people who live in and around Napa. Restaurants are usually crowded because they're good, and this is certainly the case with Boon Fly Café. The extensive breakfast menu includes the Boon Fly American Breakfast ($18.40) that includes two eggs any style, sausage or bacon, bread, juice, and tea or coffee. You can also order order a la carte — unique choices such as Bloody Fly's Spicy Bacon Bloody Mary, Poppa Joe's Eggs in a Hole, Green Eggs and Ham, Boon Fly Benedict, or the restaurant's own homemade donuts (which seemed to be quite popular).
Carneros Inn guests can also enjoy breakfast at the guest-only Hilltop Dining Room (open on weekends). While there's no waiting for a table and a more serene setting, I enjoyed the friendliness and bustling energy at Boon Fly Café.
How was the Thanksgiving dinner? Yum ... from soup to turkey to the bourbon pecan pie with vanilla ice cream, one of the best Thanksgiving feasts I've had.
