We've created this blog to keep everyone abreast of what is going on with Fagiani's (aka The Bar) - we'll be talking about the past, present and future. We kind of feel that this little gem is part of us all, especially those with old-time roots in Napa. We have been feeling the excitment brewing around our purchase of the building and our impending plans to bring it back to it's glory.

It's exciting and we love to share with you. Please come back often and share your stories/thoughts.

When we pulled the sheetrock down we found this symbol painted on the wall (note the smiley face on the upper right side). We thought it may have been from the Int’l Brotherhood of Electrical Workers but we’ve contacted our local chapter (180) and they don’t think it is from them. It would have made sense as apparently a lot of the guys used to meet at the bar back in the day (they may have even held their meetings there in the upstairs "meeting room"). Does anyone have any idea what this is? It was probably a drunken prank the night before the sheetrock went up, you can just hear it “let’s paint this on the wall and when someone finds it a 100 years from now they won’t know what to think”. At least in my mind that’s what happened!
