Gott’s Roadside, St. Helena

It’s hard to talk about Wine Country and burgers without mentioning the adored Gott’s Roadside. This is hands down one of my fav’s in Napa Valley and their drive-in (although you just walk in now) style Burger eatery is just the cutest. They also have one in the Ferry Building, read all about Where to Dine in The Ferry Building here.Ā Ā When in Napa, be sure to check out Gott’s Roadside, St Helena. As for what to order the Burger (obviously) and I love both their sweet potato fries AND regular fries so hopefully you’re with a pal and can try both.
