Oakville Grocery: Best take out in Healdsburg

Stop by Oakville Grocery and put together delicious food for a picnic lunch. Oakville sells just about anything you could want for a picnic lunch, from sandwiches to cheeses to salads to dessert items. The food is most definitely gourmet - somewhat pricey - but very good. You won't have a run of the mill lunch here!

After you've made your purchase, head over to one of the many wineries with tables for use by visitors. Dry Creek, Lambert Bridge and Pezzi-King are three nearby wineries with beatufiul grounds and several tables for picnicking.

Dry Creek General Store: Another place for takeout and snacks

A less pricey alternative to Oakville Grocery Store is the Dry Creek General Store located very close to the Dry Creek Winery. Dry Creek GS sells sandwiches, deli items, cheeses, chips, cookies, etc.

One website describes this store as a mecca for Harley fans. Bikers in the wine country? We must be talking about that new breed of white collar Harley riding banker and stock broker types. Anyway, they must have cleared out by the time I stopped there for a bottle of water.

Comparison: less expensive than average

Directions: Intersection of Dry Creek Road and Lambert Bridge Road.
