Calistoga Roastery

Calistoga's old-fashioned diner since forever: pancakes and waffles for kids, huevos rancheros for the grown-ups, and a side of town lore.

Calistoga's newest Italian: fresh pasta made daily, pizza, and house meatballs that suit kid palates.

Curries, noodles and fried rice, with vegan and vegetarian options. Pad thai or plain fried rice is the safe order for a kid who doesn't do spice.

A long, narrow trattoria with the open kitchen right up front, so kids can watch the cooks while the homemade pasta is on its way.

Every room has a kitchenette with a fridge, and there is a shallow wading pool with a waterfall (the covered jet pool is adults only).

A grocery with made-to-order sandwiches and a lot of ready-made food.
