The acovado toast could use some more pizzaz... its literally just avocado and seasoning and the creme brulee latte was a bit bland under the torched sweetness on top.

The workaround is to order mobile and you get your coffee 50-75% quicker than standing in the line. Food is great for a coffee shop. Coffee drinks are generally better than most places but it can be spotty when busy. Drip coffee is their weak spot. I suspect they leave the coffee out too long but who knows. Why 5 stars?

(I passed so many coffee places on the way there!) Even though the coffee I ordered was quite good, I have the say the experience was an unhappy one. Here's why: 1) Very crowded and long wait 2) THEY DO NOT OFFER DECAF!! (Can you imagine?) 3) They had no coffee available when I was finally able to order, so I had to wait even longer while a pot brewed. (See 1) 4) Quite noisy, due to the crowdedness.

There's also some nice outdoor seating off to the side with more greenery and shade. Ordered one of their spring drinks: Violet Shade, a matcha latte with lavender and mint. I got mine with almond milk and to be half sweetened. It's a bit pricey coming out to $8ish for a hot 12oz drink but I do Ike treating myself once a week for a good cafe stop. I could have settled for a regular matcha too! Love that they give mugs for any "for here" drinks too. Drink was cozy and very good! Lavender was there but didn't overpower the matcha. Good microfoam in the drink and no clumps at the bottom of my mug when the drink was gone! All good signs of a well made matcha drink. Hope to be back soon to try their espresso drinks with their own roasts!

Staff greeted me, even if I was the only one there at 8am on a Monday. There were a lot of sweet bakery treats and limited savory ones so I elected to try the quiche which comes with a salad. My Marla chai was warm and comforting, perfect for a chilly Santa Rosa morning. The quiche was soft, moist and flavorful. The salad had chick peas, carrots, butter lettuce, and radish with the perfect seasoning of salt, pepper and a vinaigrette. It was both delicious and refreshing. I will definitely be back next time I am in Santa Rosa.

They have lots of options for food and drinks, but I just came in for some pastries and tea. The service was good and very helpful. I wanted to try the gluten free scone, because I'd heard good things about it. Plus, I had to try the Gateaux Basque, even though gluten is not always good for me. The scone was very good, especially with a cup of tea. I ordered the Love Tea, which is really worth pairing with pastries. It has a lot of warming flavors like cinnamon and cacao. The real star here was the Gateaux Basque. A soft cookie-like dough forms the crust while the center has a vanilla custard and a cherry jam of sorts. It has one of the most pleasing textures and flavors I've had in a cake. It is worth coming here just for this, although I will have to come back and try some of their other foods. I would also note that while the quiche looks really good I couldn't justify paying $15 for a slice of it. I realize it comes with a little side salad, but when I asked if I could get it without the salad they said they couldn't charge me less for it. Oh well. Marla SR is a great addition to this neighborhood! Come check them out!

It's got bar seating too! There's also some board games if you want something to play with friends over drinks. Ordered a 12oz matcha latte with almond milk ($7) and opted to have it unsweetened. Overall smooth but not too strong, and a tiny bit sweet probably from whatever almond milk they use! I like mine a bit stronger and it's not the best I've had but decent! "For here" mugs are always a plus in my book too. Brew is unique that it doubles as a cozy bar too once the late afternoon rolls around. They've got interesting events happening throughout the month posted on their sign. Some of their food and pastries are sourced from local Red Bird Bakery and Village Bakery too if you're hungry! 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. I really like the vibes of Brew and wanna come back for a happy hour one day! It's nice to see a very queer friendly cafe/bar rolled into one!

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.

I added mustard which for me was perfect. My husband had the Chicken Kreplach dumplings. They had a soy, maybe miso, butter sauce with breaded fried onions like the ones I put on my green bean casserole which was a perfect complement. My girlfriend had the Veal & Shiitake Pelmeni sour cream & dill. Delicious and filling. I had a sip of the Orange Dream-sickle cocktail. I would like this for dessert.

They have a big patio and all the tables have shade. We got latkes for the table and I loved them! Great texture. The menu is well labeled for dietary restrictions and has AMPLE gluten free option! They have a lovely gluten free bread that is sturdy and large. I got a tuna sandwich and it was incredible. Perfect crunch and super generous portion. I saved half for the next day and it held up well. One strange thing is that they don't have anything but black coffee. Kind of odd. And would love a gluten free bagel option. But neither of these will prevent me from coming back.
