“We had a wonderful dinner at The Altamont last night. Everything was fresh and we finally had a meal that was worth paying for. Steak sandwich, Ruben (specials they were offering), pork sandwich and a kids cheese burger. We also shared a side of fries. We will definitely make the trip back out again soon to enjoy more of their offerings. Also the building is beautiful! Bonus that it is kid friendly!“

“My husband and I come here whenever we can for breakfast or lunch. We usually get the Cals Mombo Combo and split it because the portions are enormous! It’s absolutely delicious and a household favorite. Starbucks is across the street so I think people tend flock there more. I really hope more people come to check them out— it’s a gem that deserves more recognition! Support local!“

Dietary restrictions: Vegan and gf options. Alternative sweeteners.“

“Great latte! I had the challah French toast which comes with vanilla ice cream butter and real maple syrup. So good and enough to have leftovers. Hubby had baked eggs with black forest ham. Food was great, good service and charming off beat vibe with an eclectic mix of people enjoying a convivial mood.“

“Stopped in for the first time this morning, was pleasantly surprised by this local gem. Nice people working, the owner shows real pride of ownership with this establishment. Clean bathroom, good coffee, nice snack, regulars are welcoming, highly suggest you give it a try. We will be back.“

“Didn't know this was here, but just found it this morning. Definitely my new go-to for a fast, cheap, and tasty breakfast from a few lovely ladies.

Got the sausage breakfast wrap. Not a huge portion (which is a good thing), it was filling and tasty, and only $7! Not going to find anything that good for that price these days. You've got a new regular, will be back soon.“

“Sweet as...could be enough said. 😉 My family and I were so excited to find an authentic kiwi bakery here in Sonoma county. My dad who is from New Zealand has tried the pies and sausage rolls, he loved them! I am so happy I can get cream buns, ANZAC biscuits, and caramel slices here. Reminds me of my nana's baking! I keep hoping that I will see some lolly cake or Afghans here one day too. 🤞 5/5 stars and always appreciate the kiwi hospitality when I run into the owners too. 🙂🇳🇿🥝“

“Does the FDA or DEA know about your Savory Galette? It must contain some kind of controlled substance. Holy Moly! It is Delicious!!!“

“This is the third year I have been gifted 2 loaves of your cinnamon walnut bread. And this is the third year that it has been absolutely fabulous. Thank you all for making this special treat.“

“Café Nōtō is hands down my favorite coffee spot! Their almond milk latte is the best I’ve ever had, and it’s all thanks to the incredible coffee they source from Black Oak Coffee Roasters. Every visit feels cozy and welcoming, a place where I can truly relax and enjoy my coffee.

A special shoutout to Lucas—he is simply the best! Not only does he craft the perfect almond milk latte every time, but he also remembers my order, making each visit feel personal and special. While the whole team is wonderful, Lucas goes above and beyond, and I’m truly grateful for him. Thank you, Lucas, for making my mornings better and for always bringing kindness and warmth to Café Nōtō!“

“The best ever. Love this place. I am addicted. You must try.“

“This place is outstanding! I had the Mexican mocha. It was so creamy and delicious. I’m literally asking myself why I go to SBUX. I had the big breakfast burrito. Was enough for me and my daughter. I love that they grill the burrito. Reminds me of home. (Texas) We had black iced coffee. Very good flavor. Hot chocolate was so good too. My husband had the 2 sunny side up eggs on sourdough. We love coming to Guerneville on the weekends to kayak. And now we have an excellent coffee and breakfast stop! Thank you ladies, for a wonderful experience. Will see you again, real soon.“
