They offer a wonderful selection of bulk tea, my beverage of choice, and I'm happy to be able to purchase locally instead of going online for favorites like Dragonwell, Darjeeling, and Russian Caravan. Their service is warm and friendly and the ambiance, both indoor and outdoor, is relaxed and casual. For my occasional forays into coffee drinking, I appreciate their custom-roasted blends.

They make good pastries here and they are very serious about making great coffee. The service is very good and it's a great place to sit and work on your laptop. On my most recent visit, I tried their specialty hot latte which was called the Worker Bee Latte. It had bee pollen and honey, of course, plus a touch of mint. I enjoyed it, although it tasted almost like a healthy drink because of the bee pollen! I typically enjoy their gluten free pumpkin muffin, which is delicious! This location of avid doesn't have as many food options as their Santa Rosa location, but it's all still very good. They have some fun merchandise here, and my wife bought one of their t-shirts the other day.

Quality of the lattes was mid. Just tasted like steamed milk. The barista kept pouring out milk and espresso after steaming and brewing it for some reason, so maybe the machine wasn't working right?

Stopped by again recently as I had just been out running errands. No cars in front of me this time…read moreand two people working, which definitely helped because I only waited 2-3 minutes for the drink. This time, I got a small oat milk latte to see if the coffee:milk ratio would be better, since last time I had a medium and it was quite milk forward. I still think the ratio is a bit more milk forward but I was able to taste the espresso this time and overall, it was great. Unfortunately, I'm personally not a big fan of the specific brand of oat milk they're using, as I find it a bit sweet on the palate. I want to try their whole roasted beans so I'll probably stop by next time to buy a bag, but I'll probably stick to making my coffee at home.

Many fun groups meet here for community dinners. Interest groups can include Peace Corps Volunteers, Metal Workers, Programmers, Park Docents, Ex-Pats, Climate Professionals, and so many more. A rotating artist gallery is on the walls at all times. Live painting events have occurred countless times. The food is amazing. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I've enjoy countless sandwiches and desserts since I first moved here in 2005. My favorite is the Sonoma Smoked Duck panini--with Dijon mayo, caramelized onions, Gruyère cheese, and an organic mixed spring greens side salad. Absolutely delightful.

We stumbled upon this lovely restaurant while looking for vegetarian options in Petaluma. Aqus…read moreCafe actually has two menus, with plenty of meat options as well. We chose to share a delicious Spinach Fig salad, with fresh spinach, goat cheese, tomatoes and pecans with a balsamic vinaigrette dressing. The Veggie Friday panini contained roasted asparagus, roasted sweet peppers, eggplant, portobello mushrooms, goat cheese and sun-dried tomato spread. Order at the counter, choose a table and the food is brought out very quickly. Folks at the counter were very nice. The beer and wine choices are excellent to complement the dishes. The night we were there the poetry club was also meeting . In addition there are other community events and live music on some evenings. Overall, the restaurant has a warm and welcoming ambiance.

Stopped by Sarmentine recently and tried a matcha latte with honey and a flan. The matcha latte was…read moresmooth and well made, though it was a little milkier than I personally prefer. If you like a milder matcha flavor, you'll probably enjoy it. The flan was my favorite part of the visit. It had a great texture and wasn't overly sweet, which I appreciated. A lot of flans can be a sugar bomb, but this one felt much more balanced. The cafe itself was clean, comfortable, and a nice place to sit for a coffee, pastry, or meeting. I'd definitely order the flan again and would be interested in trying more of their pastries on a future visit.

I heard of this coffee shop on social media and wanted to try it today since my coffee maker just…read morecrapped out on me this morning. I looked online to see what they have and went there after some errands. I ordered a large drip coffee but was told that they're out of it and she suggested an americano instead. Still trying to wrap my brain around the fact that they ran out of drip coffee, I went with her recommendation and also ordered the avocado toast. This was just an overall bad experience! 1. The girl who took my order and brought my coffee out never once smiled. She was pleasant enough, but clearly did not want to be there today and didn't hide it on her face, nor in her demeanor. 2. You're a coffee shop so how do you run out of drip coffee? Don't you just make a fresh pot like all the other shops do? I'm still shaking my head at this one. I'm glad the americano was only $3.50 because it tasted exactly like weak diner coffee. To be fair though, it was my first experience with an americano. 3. The price for the avocado toast in the shop does not match the price on their online menu. Online it's $10 but at the physical location it's $12. More importantly, the person who made the avocado toast did not make it correctly for a couple of reasons: the avocado itself was HARD, RUBBERY, and CRUNCHY. It actually took a bit of effort to cut into one thin slice of avocado with the plastic knife and fork. Avocado, as you know, is easily smashable with lightish pressure. Said person knew damn well when they cut into the avocado that it should not have been served to a customer but they did it anyway. They also made my food as some sort of a weird greasy hybrid between two of the items on the menu (the avocado toast and the smoked salmon toast), not at all what I had ordered. The plus side is that I got arugula that I shouldn't have otherwise had on it. Did I eat the food and drink the coffee? Yes but only because I was on a time crunch and I'm was starving so I choked it down and quickly left. I really feel like I just threw away $20 (with tip) that I should have spent elsewhere on something better. Maybe they had a bad or an off day, but I definitely don't care to go back to find out.
