The flavor I remember is called Its A Goodie -- french vanilla with peanut butter and fudge chips. Yup, still awesome! Ok sweeter than my adult palette likes now but hella nostalgic. I paired it with coconut. Not a flavor I remember from back in the day but also an excellent taste. Again, adult me would like a little less sugar and perhaps the crunchiness of the coconut but I'm being picky. Mississippi mud pie seemed like something to try and I'm glad I asked for a taste. Coffee ice cream with a fudge swirl and crushed cookies. Both workers seemed happy and offered lots of suggestions. There's one table inside and a few more outside. They also have some tourist items like tshirts. When I got home, I researched Double Rainbow. There are a few stores left and you can order online (min 8 pints). Just ignore the saturated fat...

It's quite robust for how small it is. I love their snacks section; dried fruits, nuts, wasabi peas, trail mix, Asian snack mix, etc. They have a great selection of fruits both traditional and some slightly more exotic options especially depending on season. Some local products and imported options (oils and pastas), it's really a lovely roadside addition to our area. I can see why it's been here for so many years. Pricing is fair, convenient location off the drag, good variety of goods.

This is an old fashion deli gussied up for Sonoma. It gets busy but everyone working here is attentive and even nice. There's a ton of interesting cheeses (duh) and pasties (yum) but I come here for the coffee and Butcherman sandwiches. You can't go wrong with any of the sandwiches which are large enough to split if you aren't a big eater. Cubano: not traditional but delicious. Ham AND pork sausage. Jack cheese and avocado. Mortadella: with pesto and burrata. Another delicious break with tradition. Even the Arnold palmer (ice tea and lemonade) is good. There are seats in the back and a few outside but I like the counter in the front window. Enjoy your food and watch the world walk by.

We stopped by Sonoma Cheese Factory on the Sonoma Plaza hoping to recreate some great memories, but…read moreunfortunately it just isn't the place it used to be. Years ago, this was our go-to stop in Sonoma for wine and cheese tastings, incredible sandwiches, BBQ, and browsing a lively marketplace. It always felt busy and full of energy. This visit was a completely different experience. The store felt sparse, the cheese selection was much smaller than we remembered, there were no cheese samples, and we couldn't find their own branded cheeses that we used to love. We stopped in to grab lunch on our way home. The sandwich menu is now limited, and you can no longer build your own. We ordered two sandwiches, and while they were decent, they didn't justify the high price. There is still both indoor and outdoor seating, which is nice, but the overall experience felt like a shadow of what made this place so special. I really miss the vibrant marketplace where people gathered to sample cheeses, pick up lunch, and enjoy everything Sonoma had to offer. Sadly, we won't be returning. With so many outstanding places to eat around Sonoma, this no longer stands out and, in our opinion, has gone downhill.

On…read morea recent drive through I concluded that I could not or maybe that I could but didn't want to. Later that afternoon I found myself at El Brinquito and that all changed. Owing to the population, Sonoma has what us Marin-ites can only describe as a plethora of Mexican food riches. As for me, from here on out I need only one. This one. El Brinquito is a market and a meat market and a provider of what I can only describe as some of the best steak (super) tacos I've ever consumed. How good, you ask? After the first visit I was back again inside of the week for the exact same thing. On the weekends they barbecue chicken which, from the way the girl at the register said it, I garnered the impression that it was something worth trying. Maybe, but I'll have to get it to go. From here on out, I won't be passing through this area without a stop for Carne Asada Super Tacos (under $5 apiece).

Simple ingredients done really well; fresh meats, crisp vegetables, soft bread straight from the oven. It's the kind of lunch that reminds you how good simple food can be when the ingredients are quality. The owner and staff always seem genuinely happy to be there, and it gives the whole place such a warm and welcoming feeling. They also have little Italian drinks, snacks, and specialty goodies that make it fun to grab something extra alongside your lunch. It's a smaller little shop, so I recommend taking your sandwich to go and eating over at the Sonoma Plaza. Such a special little spot in Sonoma.
