Goguette Bread

Amazing Parisian bakery for the best fresh bagette owned by the sweetest couple (whom I’m so honored to call my friends). Grab a loaf for breakfast or a picnic at one of the nearby wineries and savor every bite of the best bread you’ve ever had.

Sarmentine

One of my school mom friends, who just happens to be French, longed for the patisseries she missed from her home town in France, so she opened one herself! Alexandra’s authentic French bakery will transport you to your favorite French village while you sip a fabulous cappuccino and nibble on any of her amazing creations (don’t miss my favorite chocolate bread).

Acre Coffee

Now called Avid Coffee, you can walk to this great coffee shop from the house. A local favorite with expertly roasted coffee that’s won Best Coffee in Sonoma County 4 years in a row. They also have some yummy eats including my absolute favorite Avocado Toast.

Jeffrey's Hillside Cafe

Giant pancakes that are not only the size of dinner plates but the best pancakes I've ever had. Eggs benedict and chicken fried steak are also delish. Make sure you request a cup of coffee while waiting for your table.

Rosso

It's not on the menu but we love to order the Goomba- it's a pizza topped with spaghetti! Don't knock it till you try it lol. If traveling with kids, you can also request small balls of dough for them to play with at the table.

VJB Cellars

One of our favorite places! Purchase the refillable jug of wine and take it home as a souvenir and refill on your next visit. Order wood fired pizza from the Red Rooster food truck and enjoy it at a table in the courtyard. Wine tasting + pizza= the perfect afternoon
