Taylor's Automatic Refresher has been a fixture in the Napa Valley since 1949. This burger joint is the forerunner to the gourmet burger palaces popping up across the country. Taylor's has garnered as much press as the multi-starred fine dining restaurants in the valley. They've been featured in USA Today, Wine Enthusiast, The New York Times, Bon Appetit, Gourmet, Travel & Leisure, Food & Wine, and many many more.
