"I’ll be honest—I wasn’t expecting much when I walked into Sunshine Market in St. Helena. Finding kosher food in wine country isn’t always easy, and I figured I’d have to settle for some fruit, a bag of almonds, and maybe a bottle of wine if I got lucky.

But within minutes, I realized this place is different.

First, the selection. Kosher? Check. Fresh produce? Check. Pantry staples, snacks, and even some harder-to-find specialty items? Check, check, and check. And then I saw the wine section—a solid lineup of kosher wines, including Israeli and California options that were actually worth getting excited about. Suddenly, I wasn’t just piecing together a meal—I was planning a feast.

Then there was the staff. You know how sometimes you ask for help, and someone vaguely points you in a direction? Not here. These people know their stuff. When I asked about kosher options, they didn’t just send me to one shelf—they actually walked me through, pointed out hidden gems, and made recommendations that turned out to be spot on.

Bottom line? If you keep kosher and you’re in Napa, you need to stop at Sunshine Market. No scrambling, no settling—just great food, amazing wine, and a shopping experience that actually feels enjoyable. This place is a game-changer."

"Really great upscale grocery store. Of course there is really a lot of high priced items but this is where I come when I want really good quality or rare finds you never gonna find in an average grocery like Safeway, btw, the breakfast and lunch burritos are huge and is a really good price."

"Very good local market with a good selection of wines and cheeses at reasonable prices. Just stopped in for some salami and cheese for a wine dinner. Nice selection of olives too. A little cramped but it was worth the stop."
