Welcome to the specialty merchants of Oxbow Public Market. Our selective vendors offer a wide range of artisanal food and wine products, and feature ingredients for dinner as well as an inexpensive snack or meal on site.

Restaurants. Anchoring a front corner is the latest incarnation of Taylor’s Refresher, the cult burger stand begun up the road in St.Helena. Pica Pica Maize Kitchen will introduce you to zesty Venezuelan cuisine. Rôtisario features mouth-watering rotisserie items if you want either to dine-in or take-out. Also in the main Hall, Folio Enoteca & Winery offers a great casual menu, paired with tastes of wine. Coming soon, Hog Island Oyster Company (opening 9/1) will introduce their succulent fresh oysters, seductively prepared or simply fresh on the half shell.

Wine. Another anchor tenant is the Oxbow Wine Merchant, whose variety and values befit the wine-obsessed Napa region. You can sip a glass on the scenic outdoor deck and contemplate the passing scene, or find an unusual bottle for dinner. This is a classic, hands-on, service-oriented shop for buying, tasting, and learning about wine. Meanwhile Folio Enoteca & Winery brings the wine country experience to the Market, by placing an operational micro-winery on site (in 80 square feet!).

Gourmet Foods and Specialties. Near Taylor’s Refresher is The Model Bakery, with their production facility here at Oxbow, the aroma of fresh bread baking permeating the scene; and The Fatted Calf, a soon-to-be legendary, artisanal charcuterie and butcher shop completes the McKinstry St. side of the Market. Within its space, Oxbow Wine Merchant also incorporates the Oxbow Cheese Merchant with savory and delicious cheeses from near and far. Five Dot Ranch will offer its holistic, sustainably produced, natural beef products, and our environmentally responsible seafood purveyor, Kanaloa, brings customers a full-service seafood market. Meanwhile, Ritual Roasters features their amazing coffees - both beans and drinks - to liven your mornings at the Market.

Ever changing, Oxbow Public Market has fun and excitement awaiting you every day. Spices (Whole Spice Company); chocolate (Anette’s); olives and olive oil (The Olive Press); and specialty teas (The Tillerman Tea Company) are part of the daily scene. And how about an ice cream cone on a warm afternoon, or while you stroll on the River Walk? Three Twins Organic Ice Cream has perfected an organic formula that brings you back for more.

Gifts and more. Cookbooks and periodicals (Kitchen Library), culinary antiques (Heritage Culinary Artifacts), and Fête (an oasis of provisions for the at-home entertainer or guest) round out the selection inside the Market. Meanwhile, outside, ten seasonal farmstands provide a daily artisanal producers' market, where the bounty of Northern California is always on display. From artichokes to zucchini, trees and wreaths at the holidays, just-caught fish and shellfish, Oxbow and its merchants are here to serve you. Come visit us.
