    Table setting

    Everything about The Cook and the Drummer catering exceeded our expectation--the delicious food, the timing of the courses, the table set up, etc. Probably what stood out the most was the staff's ability to coordinate cooking and service in a fairly small kitchen--and to be so relaxed about it. What allowed my husband and I to host a particularly memorable rehearsal dinner was the staff's attention to service. There was one cook and 4 servers for 19 guests. We were for want of nothing--serving appetizers, pouring wine, pouring water, clearing dishes, serving us each course all at the same time--I could go on and on. The lead server had a subtle way of communicating with me during the event. I appreciated the flow of serving the meals and allowing us time for our special toasts. To top it off, cleaning up afterwards! I'm not sure the stovetop has ever been that clean. Every person at the rehearsal dinner commented how great the food and service was. Two of us have dietary restrictions and the caterers were very accommodating of this. It was a real positive start to our wedding weekend. Becky was wonderful to work with--emailing and talking with me on the phone to make sure we had what we needed and had our bases covered. I highly recommend The Cook and The Drummer for an event or dinner party if the host really wants to enjoy themselves and the food.

    Tahitian vanilla cheesecake with salted caramel drizzle. Seriously one of the best cheesecakes you've ever had!

    My boyfriend and I came here for breakfast on a Sunday morning around 8:30 AM. It was very quiet…read moreinside and we were able to pick where we sat. On the wall was a chalkboard with the list of local farmers and vendors that they used to supply their restaurant. I loved how fresh and flavorful all the food was, but I loved their collaboration with small local business owners to provide them with things like eggs and dairy. I had an omelette with spinach, caramelized, tomatoes, chicken sausage, and goat cheese. This was one of the most delicious bites I've had at a breakfast spot in a long time. We also shared an order of beignets that came with some fresh apple butter, which was to die for! It felt like taking a bit off fall weather if that makes sense. My boyfriend had some biscuits and country gravy with a side of sausage and fried eggs. He loved everything that he ate as well. He also had a bloody Mary, which was made with Soju. The flavor and quality was top notch and you hardly missed the vodka from the drink. Our server was very friendly, and he offered some insight into the quality of the Soju and the vendors that they work with. I just really loved the care that this restaurant put into not only service but the food that they're producing.

    Firstly, thank you to Americana for seating us. We came in just before 3 pm, and we didn't realize…read morethat they were about to close. We ordered huevos rancheros with orange juice, and a caprese sandwich with a side of soup. The eggs were tasty, but it wasn't very hearty. I was hungry again within an hour. Lots of colorful sauce arranged around the dish, most of it wasted. The sandwich had the aoli, even though The Wife asked for it without. The sandwich was hearty, but kind of a mess. Assembled like someone wanted to leave. The space is attractive, with interesting local art on the walls, but frankly the prices ($20 for the eggs, $27 for the sandwich, $7 for a small juice) were out of line.

    Came to the Fern Bar for dinner and really enjoyed ourselves…read more Showed up early and had a couple of drinks. Started off funky with the U-Be Trippin which was an interesting mix, not sure the sesame seeds won me over, but a clever drink. My wife got the Creamsicle which she liked. I then went old school with a Manhattan. Didn't live the orange peal, it sort of overpowered the drink and just seemed out of place. Got some fries just to sit with, they were great. 2 friends joined for dinner and we just got a ton of small plates. Pickles, Falafel, Numb Nums, Lamb meatballs, Kimchijeon were all great. Standouts for me because they were unique were the Numb Nums (which yes, numbed your tongue, weird) and the Kimchijeon (kimchi pancake). Second time I've been to Sebastopol in like 10 years, but next time, wouldn't hesitate to return.

We were seated quickly inside and the server went through all the menu options really helping us pick what was good and she said everything is either made in house or sourced locally! I got the smashburger and it was delicious!! I would definitely get it again. The bun was REALLY good. so soft and somewhat airy. I'm a little weary about pickled onions, but the pickled shallots on the burger were absolutely fantastic on the burger it was a gentle more subtle onion flavor. YUM! Would eat again!

    I can't believe I slept on this place for so long. I've only recently started coming here more…read moreoften, and somehow I keep ordering the same thing every time because it's just that consistently good. The breakfast croissant sandwich is my go to. The menu is actually huge and feels never ending, which makes this spot perfect for groups since there's truly something for everyone. They're also great about customizing orders, which I always appreciate. The quality is on point. The croissant is never soggy, always fluffy, soft, and perfectly flaky on the outside. Inside, you get fluffy eggs with melted American cheese, fresh avocado slices, and just a touch of mayo. It comes with bacon, but I usually swap it for apple chicken sausage and they have no problem accommodating. There's plenty of indoor seating plus outdoor tables if you want to sit and people watch. Service is friendly, efficient, and welcoming. Overall, such a solid breakfast spot that I'll definitely keep coming back to.

It's got nice atmosphere and the prices are a little better than we've seen in the area. Somebody must be psychic because about 5 minutes after we ordered, the food appeared at our table, as if they knew what we were going to order. Granted, it was 8:00 a.m. on a Sunday and the crowd is light. My breakfast sandwich was delicious. Her Main Street special included pancakes with a nice tinge of cinnamon. As I said this was one of the more reasonable priced meals over our weekend trip.

Our family of 3 shared the following (we had some leftovers): 1) Chive dumplings - quite different from dumplings found in Chinese restaurants; tasty 2) Thai fried chicken - good 3) Pad kee Mao - amazing! Our favorite dish! 4) Beef stir fry - very good 5) Green curry with chicken - flavorful 6) Ube soft serve - good, though it tasted more like vanilla than ube I also got the tamarind soda, which was refreshing. Our waiter/server Sam was wonderful- he was friendly, attentive, and took very good care of us. The restaurant's indoor/outdoor set up, along with its lily pond (which my young daughter loved!) and greenery was lovely.

The food portions were SMALL and extremely expensive compared to the East Bay and SF. Their host was either new or unprofessional. Typically I make reservations at dog friendly restaurants there's a check box to inform the staff if there's a dog. There was none. When we arrived the host was understandably surprised but unfortunately did not handle it professionally. Letting us know he needed to ''get creative' with our reservations because we didn't specify we had a dog, then making a big show of add an extra chair to their patio to accommodate all of us to scolding us to 'leave a note next time' was all unprofessional. While I agree I shouldn't have assumed, I don't believe - especially since we were able to be seated within five minutes of our reservation- we should have been spoken to like that. Our waiter was nice. Their indoor/outdoor patio was filled with plants and that was very nice to look at.
