Our story

Boon Fly Cafe is named after a Carneros pioneer, Boon Fly, who planted orchards and vineyards in the area in the mid-1800s. Nestled in a picturesque red barn, the cafe serves up beloved comfort food from morning to night, and has been awarded numerous “Best Brunch” awards. But it is the friendly service and welcoming staff that make every meal memorable at Boon Fly Cafe. We are honored to share that many team members have been with the restaurant since its 2004 opening.

About Boon Fly: Boon Fly descended from settlers of the early New England Colonies, and was part of the great tradition of wagon trains that brought many of the early families west. In 1849, Boon Fly led a wagon train out of Fayette, Missouri where he had been a maker of silk and fur hats. On arrival to San Francisco he made a modest fortune as a carpenter. He was then drawn to the farmlands north of the city and settled outside of Napa on a property that would become known as the Fly District.
