I've been here a few times and always try to visit when I'm in the area. The spicy frittata sandwich is my favorite thing to order, it's delicious. As an FYI, I don't have a high spice tolerance (I wish I did) and I do fine with this sandwich so I wouldn't say it's actually very spicy. I usually order an earl grey tea, so there are some non-coffee options available as well. This place is hopping on weekends so be ready to wait a little. There is a good amount of standing and seating space, though so it doesn't get cramped. read more

We were in town for the weekend and wanted great coffee. Found this place through Yelp and I was happy! It was so good we came back the next day! I ordered an iced vanilla latte and husband got a mocha. They were both delicious! They have lots of seating inside and outside, cute inside too. And baristas were very nice! read more

This is the CUTEST coffee shop! I can't stop thinking about the seasonal pumpkin chai that I had. The chai was some of the best I've ever had-- you could taste the kick from the ginger and it was just spiced so perfectly. The lavender matcha was a little sweet for my tastes, but tasted so refreshing with the syrup. The spicy breakfast sandwich was eaten by my friend and they were surprised about how many ingredients were in the egg! The cheese melted to make this crispy exterior on the bun that was yummy, but made the overall sandwich a little hard to bite into. I got the smoked salmon toast -- the smoked salmon was so fresh tasting and I love the excess of pickled onions and capers on top! My partner got the turkey pesto and it was so delicious. Almost panini style with the toast perfect crispy and the cheese melted. There were pretty long lines around noon and were pretty packed in the seating both indoors and outdoors. We wanted to try their breakfast burrito which was a new item, but they sold out already by the time we went in. We'll have to come back earlier next time! read more

Seems quite popular, so very busy and hopping. The employees seemed a bit overwhelmed with the rush. The food was yummy, but was disappointed with the coffee - it's that unfortunate sour and acidic tasting shots of espresso where I'm not sure if it's intended to taste like that, but either way I wish it didn't read more

They had a delicious seasonal peppermint mocha as well. read more

I love Avid Coffee. It always hits. It doesn't matter if I'm grabbing one of their unique seasonal drinks or the old trusty mocha, it is always incredible. How busy they constantly are should speak enough to how amazing it is. Being in Montgomery Village helps a lot as it is the only coffee spot around. I love stopping here when I just want a little treat. I always get some form of coffee and I'd be lying if I didn't say their salt chocolate chip cookies has a complete chokehold on me. I love that cookie. Typically I don't buy cookies from restaurants cause they aren't as good as the ones I make at home but this is the exception! It's so good. Now I want one again. read more

I was visiting family in Santa Rosa, CA, and we stopped for breakfast at Avid Coffee. Spending time with family, I often neglect my phone. Still, I'm kicking myself for leaving my phone in the car on both mornings I visited recently because the avocado toast, gluten-free pumpkin muffin, and incredible salmon toast were all beautiful! They were definitely photo-worthy, and even better, they were delicious! That said, I had never spent $80 for breakfast for three people before... wow! Prepare yourself. Still, no regrets! Delicious!!! read more

At 10 am on a Monday the line was 8 people deep. Every chair was full and the noise level was moderate/loud. Hipster vibes. Lots of natural light, wood, black and white. Free Wi-Fi. Parking is plentiful. The drip coffee was good, no complaints. The salted chocolate chip cookie was finished with Maldon sea salt. I would get it again. It was salty, sweet, crispy on the edges and chewy in the middle. The coffee bar had whole milk and half and half. Honey as well as simple syrup. Stevia and sugar in the raw packets. It was well stocked, especially considering how busy they were. The two seasonal drinks were a pumpkin chai or latte and a gravenstein steamer with apple juice and oat milk? If you want to support a local coffee shop and don't mind the wait or the noise level, this is a good bet. If you want to get some work done and hangout, this is not the location for you. Or consider going during off peak hours or the afternoon. The tables are very small. Better to meet a friend but not for groups. read more

Avid Coffee has quickly become my go-to coffee house for a variety of reasons, and it's hard to say if their coffee or customer service is #1 for me because both qualities are exceptional. I guess it has to be the coffee; they put such great care into every detail of the preparation and presentation of your beverage. A line out the door on weekends can't be wrong, I definitely recommend ordering ahead through their website. The customer service is just as outstanding. While the in store customer service has certainly gone above and beyond, their administrative team has also provided continued, consistent support demonstrating their commitment to serving their local community the most distinguished coffee in the county. Thank you, Avid, for showing me what finding your local coffee spot is all about! read more

I used to come here when it was known as Acre Coffee, but I'm glad to see that the café still serves delicious espresso and has even expanded its outdoor seating. I ordered my usual -- oat milk cappuccino -- and it was strong and frothy, as it should be. Thumbs up! Other coffee shops tend to add way too much milk to cappuccinos, essentially making them lattes. Not Avid Coffee, thank god. I didn't order any food on my recent visit, but the breakfast sandwiches and avocado toast looked delicious. Love the clean, modern vibe of the place. I can imagine Avid would be quite busy in the mornings, but I was able to snag an outside seat on a weekday afternoon. This is a go-to place for coffee if you're in the vicinity of Montgomery Village in eastern Santa Rosa. read more

First of all they they have great tasting coffee. It's probably the best tasting coffee in s.r. They are very friendly there and the place has a good atmosphere. My complaint is about the avocado toast and the price. Honestly it was one of the worst avocado toast I've had in a long time. It's a small slice of white bread with mashed avocado and some sprinkled seeds on top for over $11.00! My daughter and I literally laughed at the tast when it came out. It had no side salad, no side of fruit , not anything! I got an 8oz latte with vanilla and my daughter got ice tea and this horrible excuse for a meal and it came to 25$. Then they flip around the machine asking for a tip. We left severly disappointed. read more

Always looking for a good mocha when I'm on different med rotations, and Avid/Acre Coffee def has a good one! Definitely on the trendier side. Cafe has nice large windows and tables for indoor/outdoor seating. Located in the little mall next to Boudin SF. Mocha with oat milk was nice and warm. Can definitely taste the cacao. Salted Chocolate Chip Cookie ($3) was crispy and had yummy gooey chocolate distributed throughout. I think it could of had a little less sea salt (maybe if more distributed than just in the center), but has v good cookie potential. Would come back for my caffeine fix! read more

Parking might suck, you could find street parking maybe on 8th St or if you're early you could park by the meters for free before 9AM. There's a $1/hr parking garage right nearby but if there's nothing, best to park at SR Plaza for free and make the 5min walk over.

That's how we ended up at Brew. It was our first time there and it left a good impression. I got a SMOKED SALMON BAGEL and it was tasty. All the ingredients seemed fresh and the bagel had a decent amount of cream cheese and salmon. The workers were nice and friendly. Good location. They have plenty of outdoor seating, but if it's windy, you can always sit inside. I would definitely give it another try if I'm in the area.

Before coming to Acre I had no idea what a good cup of coffee should taste like, after experiencing even just a cup of their drip I was hooked. Their espresso drinks are simple and actually taste like coffee not a milkshake (no offense sugar enthusiasts). In my opinion the staff is warm, friendly and cares about what they serve. The environment is clean and professional. Happy to have discovered it and right in the middle of the village, lucky us! read more

Acre was my favorite coffee shop. The new owners have managed to turned it into Starb*€ks. So disappointing. I get that it's a well designed space and pleasant spot to spend time but why do people who obviously don't care about coffee take over coffee shops? read more

I got an iced honey bee latte with oat milk - 3.5/5 stars. I definitely wished I had gotten my drink hot instead. Cinnamon overpowered the latte just a bit but the overall drink was pretty good. For food I got the avocado toast - 5/5! You can't really go wrong with an avo-toast but I loved the size of the dish, from the bread (which was phenomenal) to the garnish ratios, it was all so yummy. Now my favorite part of this cafe was the decor!! Obsessed with the logo and squirrel theme! The interior design was very vintage-y, antiques throughout and just so cozy. I love that they had live music and so many seating options. I definitely would come back to try more of their menu!

They offer a selection of coffee, teas, pastry's, sandwiches, coffee beans, mugs, and more. I ordered a matcha latte. It was decent but I could tell wasn't as high quality matcha as some of the specialty shops in the area. It doesn't come sweetened, so make sure to ask for sweetener if that's your preference. The space itself is great for getting work done. They have a large indoor seating area with plenty of tables and I noticed many people were working on their laptops or holding meetings. There's a more private room in the back as well as an outdoor patio. Keep in mind that the patio is right next to the SMART train so it can be loud when it passes.

My friend got a latte and I got the Three Waves iced. My friend rated hers 4/5 My drink I would say 4/5, it has the perfect amount of sweetness and I can taste the coconut, macadamia and caramel. The inside is super cute and well decorated. The bathroom isn't the worst but it isn't the cleanest. The reason I docked stars is because I think service is one of the main selling factors for a business. Both my friend and I felt like the cashier was rude to us. You don't need to be super warm but for my experience, I asked for the drink. We both spoke at the same time, him asking what size and I asked if they have oat milk. He didn't answer my question and looked at me sternly (or just not warm) intent on me answering his question since he repeated it again. As someone who isn't from Santa Rosa, this interaction confirmed what other friends have said about the vibe here

I stopped at The Barlow today while shopping and decided to grab a coffee and a croissant sandwich…read more Unfortunately, the experience left a pretty bad taste in my mouth. The woman helping me had dark hair, glasses, and beautiful tattoos down her arm. I ordered the sandwich and was asked whether I wanted a bagel or sliced bread. I asked about the croissant, and she told me they were out. I said that sliced bread would be fine. When I noticed I was being charged an additional $1.50 for the bread, I politely asked why there was an upcharge. Her response was, "Because we're out of croissants." I asked what the substitute was, and she looked at me and said, "Nothing." At that point, I simply said okay and accepted the bread. She then asked a young man behind her to take over, and he was very polite and finished ringing me up. A few minutes later, I could hear the woman in the back ranting to the staff, and she eventually disappeared into the back. I understand that everyone can have a bad day, and I certainly don't expect perfection. However, as a longtime business owner myself, I know how important it is to treat customers with courtesy and professionalism--even when you're having a difficult day. This interaction was completely unnecessary. I wasn't rude or demanding; I simply asked a reasonable question about a charge. I hope management takes this as an opportunity to remind staff that how you treat customers matters just as much as the product you're selling.

I appreciated that the matcha was hand whisked instead of just quickly mixed together, which made it feel much more intentional and thoughtfully prepared. The latte itself was not overly sweet, although I personally would have liked a slightly stronger matcha flavor.

Between the atmosphere, the people, and the location, it's an easy place to keep coming back to whenever I'm in Sebastopol.
