Meet Hakan Kostek, founder of 🍕Alongside his family, bringing bold flavors and Detroit-style pizza to Napa with serious craft and consistency.
•••
What started as Napa Baking Company at the farmers market, serving sourdough bread, pretzel buns, and wood-fired pizza quickly built a loyal following. As demand grew, so did the vision…leading to the opening of Croccante. By introducing Detroit-style pizza to Napa, Hakan created something different in a crowded market and today, that early community continues to show up and support. 🙌
•••
At Croccante, it’s all about consistency and flavor. Every bite from their signature pizzas to garlic knots—delivers the same quality every time, while still evolving with new offerings like brunch, cocktails, Georgian bread, and chilaquiles. And fun fact: Hakan might care a little too much about the foam on his beer. 🍺
•••
For Hakan and his family, Napa is home, a place where the community truly supports local businesses and appreciates the art of food.

Meet Darryl Bell, founder of 🔥 A Kansas City BBQ+ spot serving up soul, smoke, and serious flavor in the heart of Napa’s Rail Arts District. ••• Darryl’s culinary journey started at age 8 with a pot of lentils, and took him through top kitchens like Bouchon and Press before coming full circle to his roots. Born and raised in Kansas City, BBQ was always in his bones so teaming up with Napa native Jeremy Threat and opening Stateline was more than a business move…it was a homecoming. Now, they’re serving up slow-smoked meats, house sauces, and that “+” touch that reflects finesse, care, and community love. 🖤 ••• As Napa’s first Black-owned restaurant in over a century, Stateline Road is more than a place to eat—it’s a space where people feel welcome, represented, and at home. From pop-ups at the farmers market to opening the doors of their Quonset hut in 2024, Darryl and the team are building something bigger than BBQ. ••• 📍 Visit them Thursday–Monday, 11 AM – 7 PM in the Rail Arts District.

Meet Ariella Wolkowicz, founder of 🥯 The bagel queen of Napa Valley bringing the East Coast bite to Wine Country mornings since 2016.

What started as a single Tuesday pop up at the Napa Farmers Market has grown into a five day a week operation spanning multiple markets, wholesale partners (including NVUSD 👏), and a growing catering arm. Ariella’s mission?
