great bakery/pastry shop/coffee shop in Napa?

[phoenikia]

Could anyone recommend a great bakery or pastry shop in Napa that has a sitting area and serves good coffee? Or a coffee shop that serves amazing pastries?

I like the sounds of the pastries at Lucy's Panaderia. Are there any tables/seats, or is it a traditional bakery where everything is to go?

Thanks for any of your comments.

I recently tried Buttercream Bakery for breakfast, and didn't think too much of the food. I grew up in Napa with Buttercream, and thought their cakes were quite good (especially the champagne cake), but breakfast was only slightly better than Denny's. Also, I don't recall the coffee being particularly good. On the other hand, the atmosphere/decor was great - totally kitschy with old wood "BC" initials on the backs of the bar stools.

Thanks for your suggestions, Carrie 218 & bajajohn. I checked out both Sweetie Pies and Buttercream's websites, and they look great. Maybe I'll get a chance to try both.

The oldest bakery in Napa is Buttercream Bakery. The have a coffee shop inside with tables. They are located near the corner of Lincoln and Jefferson. Hope this helps. John
