30 Best Cafes in Santa Rosa

“food was great and service quick ..well worth it“

“What a wonderful experience to be here at Café Frida! We are listening to incredible jazz while viewing beautiful art and having a delicious breakfast. This is a great addition to the arts in Santa Rosa“

“And as soon as I'm finished I'm grabbing some sandwiches at Ulia's Delicatessen! I had to go way out to the end of Stony Point rd. to pick up a Bristor's Calltanger and take it up to Hedgepealer's Pandatty Ranch up on the top of Wragg Canyon Ridge, what a place, you can see Mt. Shasta, Mt. Diablo and the smog from San Jose all from a single spot. Those sandwiches I snagged from Ulia's sure were good....maybe the best on Santa Rosa. 5 Stars all day long. ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Brew offers up so much delicious food and coffee drinks!“

“Sept 2025. Only 62 reviews? It's a 5-star review for a 70-80s style diner/cafe.

The Warm Puppy is a cafe built into the lobby of the Redwood Empire Ice Arena. The arena and cafe were built by Charles Schulz. A museum dedicated to the author of Peanuts is across the street.

A table dedicated to Charles (Sparky) is set aside with a 'reserved' sign waiting for the talented - but humble - genius to arrive.

It's a cafe folks. It's just fine for what it is.

We ordered sandwiches with fries. They were good and reasonably priced. Staff had trouble with English, but they created delicious sandwiches in a timely manner.

What else do you expect?“

“One of the best coffee shops !!!!! Love love love. A bonus would be if they offered more gf pastries. Otherwise, perfection � �“

“The staff is amazing and the food is delicious. Fast service and quick refills on your drinks.“

“Fabulous plant-based breakfast spot. Owners are courteous and gracious and all hands on. Freshly made pumpkin bread/muffin was absolutely delicious and moist and a huge portion that suited two for just $8. Run, don’t walk, to this great spot.“

“Its a cute little bakery, I think the opportunity to try student prepared food is awesome and a great experience for both customer and students.
Today I got a cheddar bacon scones and the apple cider donut cupcake. I think this was the fluffiest scones I've ever had, usually scones are hard crumbly and a mess to eat. This was extremely pleasant. Though, while eating it, each bite was a bit different; a couple bites were fine then towards the end it became a bite of either pure salt flavor or pure pepper flavor. While I dont mind either sensation together, individually as mouthfuls was a bit much for breakfast.
I dont usually do donuts, but I liked the idea of a fusion bite. Very moist and bouncy with each bite. I like how much apple I could taste and it wasnt the super sugar fake apple flavor. The sugar coating is a tad messy but was fine, personally I think eating a plain one would have been more up my alley but if you like sugar donuts you'll love this. I feel this item gave all the fun of the donut without the grease feeling and I appreciate that.
Took a Pic of the schedule and cant wait to try more goods! Thank you!“

“The food and service here are overall great. This place has the BEST grilled cheese and tomato bisque soup. I know what you're thinking ... that is so easy. This grilled cheese is so much better than what you can make at home with its fresh sourdough with parmesan, cheddar and mozzarella, plus an added homemade cheese sauce. The tomato bisque is so rich and creamy. I have to stop myself from ordering multiples. It's the ultimate comfort food.“

“I have been coming here for several years. I like the mochas. It's a really nice atmosphere and centrally located. I have had many business meetings here.“

“Everything that I have tried all of this menu has been absolutely delicious. I'm very sad to see this location close. Best of luck to you all“

“The spicy lovers egg sandwich is what good food is about. It is soo good. The lady today was by herself and she was friendly, fast, and it tasted so fresh and yummy. I can only eat half of one so I feel great. A whole one and your are risking a food coma. I'm glad I thought about them today and even though I don't need to go often I will start going once a month for a treat. Great place and I like it better than the chanate rd place. Clap back to the lady who called these ladies obnoxious. The reviewer is obnoxious. Thanks cafe de crossiont....so check on pastry thingy“

“Budget friendly breakfast and lunch option that isnt greasy fast food. With groceries getting more and more expensive, gas at $6 a gallon, and starbucks jacking up their prices - it's refreshing to find a spot that's still affordable without sacrificing quality.“

“This place is fantastic!! The owner Greg went above and beyond with a birthday delivery breakfast surprise for us. We had breakfast burrito with bacon and added avocado. The ingredients were so fresh and grown locally. Also had some of the best biscuits and sausage gravy ever!! We tried several scones. AMAZING. He told us the farm where the blackberries came from that were in the scones. We got banana nut and blueberry muffins as well. Everything was fresh and yummy!!!We actually went back 2 days later for more!!What a great place highly recommended!!Greg is a top notch class act!!!“

“first time experience, loved the avacado and meat lovers croissants.“

“One of the best coffee shops !!!!! Love love love. A bonus would be if they offered more gf pastries. Otherwise, perfection � �“

“This Boba was so good it made me cry. I get boba here from time to time, and it’s always good, but today I went there and it was amazing! I never caught the girl’s name who gave it to me, but I really hope she knows who she is. I got some rose milk tea on my way home after finding out campus was closed for a holiday and it was amazing. I have never had boba this good in my life. It made my day, I cannot praise how amazing this was. It literally made me cry in my car after I had the first sip because it was so good.“

“Thank you for good service“

“great atmosphere great beer great people“

“It was a little early for lunch, and still cold from the night, Pinhead Pete and I were heading toward a breakfast joint on 4th when the Pin asks me who Joe is...Joe who I said, and he says My Friend Joe Coffee...who's this Joe guy? I looked him right in the eyes and said...See, ..That's exactly why everyone calls you Pinhead!
Well, we whipped it on in there ..it was right between breakfast and lunch, so I got the egg salad sandwich, and it was Amazing! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Delicious Sunday Breakfast!“

“You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything is outstandingly delicious.“

“I had a coffee and a scone yesterday and it was fantabulous! I love this place! Try it, support small business and our Sonoma County community.“

“The best deli in Sonoma County👍👍👍👍👍“

“This is a great place to get croissants and many more. I have bought so many croissants from this location and it is by far the best croissants I have eaten so far in my life. I don't know why people have lef less than 5 star reviews. The guys who attend this place are very friendly and always have a big smile. They are always very friendly, always. I definitely recommend this place. I have been buying from this place for more than 2 years now. Something I really like about the croissants from this location is that they are very crunchy. The croissants from other locations are somewhat soft and it's not my preferred way of eating croissants.“

“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.“

“As a professional barista, I have a higher standard for coffee than most and will refuse to drink from most commercial roasters. Acre coffee is one of the best experiences I've had in a coffee shop yet. Legitimately good coffee, friendly faces, great atmosphere and an eagerness to bring you back in. 9/10. When coffee is this good, a long line can bring a wait time but the coffee, food and pastries are still well worth it“

“The Thai iced tea was spot on, the clam chowder was pretty good... Our sandwich was a total bummer. Was supposed to have egg in it and it didn't. They were so busy it wasn't worth fighting to the counter to complain... That is on me, so we will try again and hope for a more egg-cellent egg-perience.“
