Mediocre coffee, overpriced food. There’s no reason for it to be so bad.
We stayed at the Meritage for a few days for a wedding and Blend was conveniently located on the ground floor of the building that we stayed in. Get there early if you don't want to wait in a line, but even if you do have to, the customer service is absolutely lovely. Special shoutout to Junieth, Dawa, and Alexandria who served me multiple times over my stay and were always so pleasant and kind, even when I could see other guests treating them unkindly due to things out of their control. They close at two which is unfortunate for my afternoon caffeine habit, but I so enjoyed their hospitality that I would go grab my second coffee of the day before they closed. During my stay, I tried a few different coffees which had a fair amount of modifications available (flavors, alternative milks), along with a number of food items. I particularly enjoyed the breakfast bowl, yogurt, and chocolate croissant. Although resort-priced, the food items are hearty and filling. Overall very lovely addition to the resort!
We had coffee there most every morning since coffee maker in room was un-useable. Staff were all extremely pleasant and the coffee is very good.
Blend was ok, but not anything special. We had to wait a long time to order our coffee and the pastries were average. Like that we could sit outside and enjoy the weather while we are.
Every year we come to this resort for our anniversary. And the service at Blend and the entire resort is always outstanding! This year, Junieth went above and beyond at making sure our experience was wonderful!
Highly recommended - delicious breakfast burrito - and a special thank you to Junieth - she was the kindest!
Wonderful cafe on site with really great coffee and cafe drinks and bakery items. The cold brew was excellent. They also sold alcohol, sun screen, clothing, and personal items.
My latte was alright but I've never paid so much money for microwave eggs with bacon and uncooked oatmeal in my life. Awful.
This is one of the best coffee places in the Napa Valley. If you're looking for a great spot for coffee, breakfast, something sweet or just to hang out and read, then this is a must. Dawa and Junieth are unique workers there and they make you feel always welcome. Ditch overcrowded Napa downtown and find spend some time here. There is a lot of open space to sit under umbrellas outside. Good place for locals as well!
I wanted to write a review specifically to give a shout out to an awesome employee, Dawa, who was so sweet when I was at the Meritage with my 2 young kids. She went out of her way to make sure we had everything that we needed and gave us advice on how to fill our day with fun activities in the area. When I had questions about where things were, she walked us there rather than just explain. It was so refreshing how kind and accommodating she was, and she helped make sure we had a wonderful stay at the hotel and in Napa. She is a true asset to the Meritage and we’re grateful we met her!
