“One of my favorite stops for a latte! I've been loving their seasonal tiramisu latte, so fun and aesthetic! Their food is also good, of course, cafe coffee and breakfast items are not cheap, I mean you can't even go to McDonald's without flinching at the cost, so be prepared for this to not be your basic cup of black coffee and croissant. I haven't ordered something at Retrograde that I haven't liked, bummer is, the place has become so popular over the years that a wait is almost always required when stopping in, with very minimal seating available.“
“Love the vibe here. This is my first time back in Sebastopol in 17 years, and the hodgepodge art vibe reminds me of old Sebastopol much more than downtown. Good to see the humble old spirit of the city still lives in a few places around town.They have a wide and eclectic variety of teas (including loose leaf). They also have display cases of various raw crystals (not the polished ones like in most stores downtown), all of which are for sale. My soy latte was great too“
“The menu looked intriguing and on our way back from Sonoma, we stopped by. The ambience is so relaxing, open, and welcoming. The hosts were just amazingly cool. Food was a good blend of taste and healthiness. All locally grown and advocates of sustainability. A must visit.“
“Such a wonderful little spot in an understated strip mall in Sebastopol. Owned by a local family, the service is so attentive and welcoming! The menu is extensive, including all the classics for breakfast and lunch plus some unusual offerings like cabbage borscht, gumbo, and a delicious homemade mushroom gravy served on biscuits or as a side which I almost always order- it's great on poached eggs, the potatoes served with eggs, or even just to dunk toast into . Always a great experience, I will return to hole in the wall over and over.“

“Stopped by this adorable little spot for a smoothie and cookies. When I walked in, the smell made my mouth water. They also have soup and lite lunch fare. I got a chocolate chip walnut and a lavender honey cookie. Delicious. I met the owner and she was the sweetest. Her helper too. I can't wait to go back. Bringing some home to San Diego with me.“
“Lovely, gorgeous, as comforting as a library for readers, as fun as an elementary school for families, delicious poppy seed with lemon cakes, large coffees, we enjoyed the games, piano, Christmas tree with gifts to donate. Fantastic place to bring your family and friends.“
“The customer service here had always been amazing. And the quality of the coffee is consistent and great. That being said, I often order medium drinks that do not fill up the cup. I want the amount of beverage I actually paid for. $7 for a small mocha in a medium cup is kind of a bummer. And please get lids that actually fit your cups!“
“This is the spot if you are like me and doubt the health value of greasy fatty or sugary breakfast foods that are standard in the American diet. This place had good breakfast alternatives with simple and clean ingredients , yet full of flavor.“
“Great coffee, I always get the Mexicano with too much raw sugar and half and half in the morning. In the afternoon or on hot days the Whirled Famous iced coffee is the better of the two iced coffee options as it has vanilla and whipped cream for not much more. The staff are wonderful and great to talk to when you get a chance. Sometimes it can take a while to pay due to some Bourgeois wanting an espresso drink or taking too long to decide what they want at the window. Prices are very reasonable compared to Big Coffee along with the discounts for bringing your own cup or riding a bicycle there and after 2pm they have "Happy Hour". And last, the $1 donuts do not the hurt the wallet, just the waistline but are fresh and tasty. 😋“
“This place just opened up This place is a fabulous addition to this plaza! It has a very open clean design, for those that wish to do work on their laptops, and the Wi-Fi is excellent. The layout is very efficient so that you can order and just move to the left to collect your drink at the corner. This location did not exist on yelp prior to my creating it, so I had to take some effort and get the names of the staff, but I anticipate lots of people at the drive-through, which is different than the previous Burger King, so it may cause confusion until everyone realizes they have to go around to corners to get their order. The parking lot offers plenty of parking in addition to the spot directly in front of Starbucks and the bus stop for the free 24 Sebastopol Shuttle is right behind this Starbucks on Gravenstein Highway. Staff on opening day was great toby, Will, Curoline, Lei Lani, Sandra And Harrison-- it's a great opening vibes. I'm sorry that my phone is malfunctioning. I will come back to edit my review, but this is fantastic and the best thing that's ever happened to this area up in northern Sebastopol.“
“I like this Starbucks, the wait is not as bad after the high school rush, avoid it after school and right before school, during the summer the rush is not as bad. Staff are always friendly. Best time to come is around 9am, they can not redeem any free drinks from the Starbucks app at this location and they do not offer mobile order pick up. Great selection of cups and it is clean.“
“I had the Herbal Mocha (brewed with roasted roots with reishi and maca added) and it was delightful. It was a rich and earthy bouquet without being bitter like some similar drinks can be. My barista (who I think was Emilou!) was very kind, and gave me some guidance on where in town I should check it because I haven't been in Sebastopol since 2007 and it's changed a LOT since then. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying their tea selection.Dietary restrictions: Good variety of milk alternatives“
