Incredible dinner that went beyond my expectations. I dined here on a whim and started dinner not knowing anything about Troubadour. A couple of hours later, I left starting the countdown for when I can return. Amazing! read more

Re-reviewing now that Troubadour has rebranded as a bistro and is offering a stellar set menu, nightly. We were quite skeptical as to how a sandwich shop would become somewhere where you want to spend $125pp to dine, but alas they did it. The entire ambiance of the shop has shifted and the caliber of the food is unmatched for the price in Healdsburg. The meal was exquisite. The waitstaff were incredible. Highly recommend. It's delectable To note the sandwiches are still absolutely incredible so I recommend for all meals! read more

Exceptional artisan sandwiches and loaves of bread of all types. We bought a crusty baguette and a sourdough loaf; both incredible but the baguette was a show stopper! A must stop for picnic supplies or on your way home. The carrot sandwich was so unique, staff very helpful in explaining the various selections. read more

On our recent trip to Healdsburg I found this gem that is opened by the same owners of Quail and Condor (my favorite bakery in Healdsburg!). They sell a limited selection of sweet baked goods (cookie, cannelle, etc.) but have a good selection of bread loaves (same as what they sell at Quail and Condor I believe) and sandwiches. We got the yecora rojo and super seed breads as well as the jambon baguette and chicken salad sandwich. All were delicious! Staff were also really nice and made sure the breads were sliced for us and provided great recommendations on what their popular items are. In addition to bread and sandwiches, it looks like they offer reservations for Pre-fixe dinner at this location. I am excited to try this on my next trip here! read more

This place is so fantastic. It takes sandwiches to a whole other level made with the freshest ingredients. The best bread everything is absolutely fantastic. The service the food the love everything that's put into everything they make is spectacular. This is a must stop for lunch. Pick up sandwiches for a picnic or pick up sandwiches for a road trip. It is the perfect place. read more

Why stand in line across the plaza when you can get this? Fresh baked bread stuffed with Italian meats and cheese or the Muffalata. Delicious! Big enough to share, but why? Walk in to a French cafe in downtown Healdsburg and sit by the window and watch the walkers go by. Great find. read more

Outstanding food, first level service. Highly recommend. Delicately outlined foods. Unpretentious. In particular, personal and caring. You should dine here. read more

This review is for the chefs tasting menu dinner service. The hubby and I came here to celebrate a special occasion. At first he was skeptical because this is a sandwich place during the daytime, but don't let that fool you - the dinner is phenomenal! The team are Single Thread alums and it shows. Each dish is prepared with attention to detail in flavor and presentation. Usually they weave in an element of bread to each dish, so it's best if you like carbs like me! The place itself is charming, with just a handful of tables and food served on vintage plates you'd find in grandmas cupboard. The menu consisted of a number of small bites (veggies are from single thread garden). We had: - croque monsieur with a savory tea - herb salad - tuna tartare - lobster bisque - mini epi bread - halibut - meringue for dessert We left pleased with the experience and would definitely come back. The one thing to mention is that if you're a big eater you may still be hungry afterward as the portions aren't huge, but they are decadent so you're definitely getting plenty of calories. Hot tip: ask for a loaf of bread to take home with you. These were complimentary when I went. read more

BEST SANDWICHES EVER! During a trip to the Napa area, I made it a point to try out the recently opened Troubadour in Healdsburg. Let me start by saying that it was so good, my boyfriend and I ate there twice in the same weekend AND bought extra sandwiches to take home. They were THAT good! These are sizable sandwiches; they really pack in the ingredients! The bread is also from local bakery, Quail and Condor, so you know it's going to be good! Menu changes daily, but everything I've had from here is great! The sandwich that really blew me away is their Warm Pastrami! The pastrami was so incredibly tender and delicious. The best pastrami I've ever had. It has 1000 Island and Swiss on Caraway kamut, superseed bread. The crust on the bread was a little hard on this one, but it did a good job of holing up nicely with keeping all the ingredients in! The center of the bread on the other hand, was so soft! Overall, incredible. The Roasted Chicken Sandwich is also another winner. The pan drippings are everything! Little crispy bits of savory deliciousness--these are mindblowingly good. They almost remind me a bit of crispy bacon bits. There's also a good amount of arugula for some freshness. The Italian was also tasty. It had Journeyman meats, oil and vinegar, arugula, and provolone on Siciliano bread. While yummy, the calabrian chilis on it were pretty spicy. There wasn't any indication on the menu that it had chilis on it, so a little note would have been nice! Troubadour also always offers a Market Veggie Sandwich option, and this is no ordinary, boring vegetable sandwich! The day I went, they were offering a rainbow carrot, pesto, burrata and arugula sandwich. I did not think a carrot sandwich could ever taste so good! Each sandwich comes with a side of pickles, and these are magic. Seriously, everything they make here is AMAZING. Troubadour, please consider opening another location in the South Bay--I'll literally be there every day, haha. read more

Been here a few times - 4 times for lunch and 1 time recently for dinner. Lunch is a little pricey but quite filling, made with top ingredients. Dinner on the other hand is what I consider a great relative value and possibly some of the best food in town. Every dish was top notch and the salad course was one of the best salad's I've ever had. Only slight disappointment was the fact that chicken was no longer one of the main course options. The duck was fantastic but I would have chosen chicken which was available when I made the reservation, which is a small nit to a fantastic dining experience. read more

Had a lovely dinner last month. Unsurprisingly, the various breads we were served over the course of the meal were excellent. Dinner was a prix fixe where you could choose from various options for the appetizer and mains so the bf and I made sure to make different selections to be able to try more. One of the bf's favorite dishes was the croque madame at the start. It was made even more interesting since it came in puff form. One of my favorite dishes was unexpectedly a little cup of a mushroom broth, also near the start. The herb salad was also delicious: very fresh, perfectly dressed, and a pleasing brightness. I got the steak tartare while the bf got the chestnut soup. This was possibly the first time I ever had leftover bread after finishing my tartare which was great bc I do find it a little annoying when I don't get enough bread to eat tartare with (which happens more often than I think it should). I had the monkfish amandine for my main and the bf got the duck pruneaux. Dessert was a tarte tatin. I had kind of wanted the supplemental caviar and eggs offered early on but full table participation was required and both of us weren't incredibly hungry. It looked great when I saw another table get it but I was so stuffed by the end of our meal that I'm glad we refrained. The wine we ordered was really good. Service was also great. We got to take home a baguette at the end of the meal which I was excited about. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant read more

We found gold in Healdsburg!!! I loved casual vibe immediately. We were greeted by Josh who took us on an amazing dinning experience. Every course was unique, delicious and perfectly paired with wine. Beautiful presentation and just the right amount of food. We had a blast! Thank you! p.s. Get the caviar read more

Had the best meal of my life here last week. I've frequented many of the best fine dining and 2-3 star Michelin restaraunts in the US but I've never had as many foodgasims as I had at Troubador. The tasting menu with wine paring will change your life. Usually with fine dining, 20% of the dishes are good or meh, 50% are great, and 30% are amazing. Every single menu item and wine compliment was outstanding at Troubador. I found myself walking back to the kitchen a few times to personally tell the chefs how extrodinary their skills were. Be prepared for disappointing meals after dining here as other great restaraunts will leave you only mildly satisfied and longing for your next visit to this amazing restaraunt. Get the caviar egg. read more

We stopped in to eat but decided we weren't hungry enough for their full course dinner. After purchasing a meal to go elsewhere, we came back in to purchase just a side of bread to go. Without asking, the staff gifted us an amazing entire loaf of sour dough. What?!?! A random act of generosity! We can't wait to treat ourselves to a full meal. Thank you Troubadour! read more

If you want a restaurant that costs nearly $200 per person to charge you twice, as confirmed by your bank, and then refuse to communicate with you after you stop in, leave 4 voicemails, and send an Instagram message (email bounced back), then this is the place for you. This is supposed to be a classy place with good food, but their actions after I paid belie their reputation. Zero stars. read more

Amazing chicken salad! Trust me, it is life changing! The perfect stop during a day of wine tasting.

Cute little shop with great people and even better sandwiches. The Italian is spicy and delicious. My wife loved the chicken salad. We've been back twice already! read more

I have been to Troubadour for lunch and for New Year's Eve dinner. Both were amazing! The sandwiches for lunch are a little pricey, but really delicious and large -- split the sandwich if you're not a big eater. Our dinner was amazing...a really creative and tasty multi-course menu with a great ambiance and really attentive service as well. 100% would recommend. read more

A bustling little sandwich shop with indoor seating. It seems as if we just missed the lunch crowd and had some amazing choices of sandwiches before we went winetasting. Among the choices that we had were a turkey pesto, wagyu roast beef, and jambon Au beurre. These sandwiches are huge and well worth the price. We had fun sharing among our group. Don't be surprised if you see the line outside the door. Very popular with both inside and outside seating. We will be back again to sample more choices. sorry there are no pictures this time. read more

My first 5 star review is for the "Le Dinner" held at the cafe in the evenings on Wed - Sunday at $125 w/ possible supplemental course it was a good value in healdsbrug, fresh ingredients and thoughtful preparation and presentation. My favorites of the night were the croque monsieur w/ black truffle OMG and the avocado/ caviar w/ bread course was amazing..The menu was tasty and by the time the chicken royale was finished it definitely hit the spot, dessert was simply but delicious. Now for a combo review we came back the following day to try there sandwiches and the combinations and fresh bread really hit all the sandwich craving spots, I'm already trying to go back. read more

Apologies for the long delayed review. My granddaughter treated my husband and I to a Christmas feast on 12/4/24. The three of us were spoiled with the excellent service by Jack & Garret who took our lack of fine dining experience in stride and were very helpful. Each course was exquisite, presented beautifully and was a gastronomical adventure! Offerings we didn't expect to like consistently were delicious! It's an intimate and unique place. read more

Went to Troubadour a few weeks ago, not for a tasty sandwich but for their special Prix Fixe tasting menu which has garnered quite a following in the short time it has been offered. There are a few tables and the counter to sit at. We chose the counter and chatted with the manager- server during the dinner. Not a lot of ambience inside but you come here for the food and dinner did not disappoint. What we liked about the tasting menu was there were choices for some courses. My wife is a picky eater so that came in handy :). Won't post everything we had (will include the photo of the menu) but a few highlights were: Croque Monsieur, perigord truffle, ham and Gruyère Veal sweetbreads, baby vegetables and sauce supreme "Avocado Toast", Kaluga caviar, Danish rye, crème fraiche, served with house levain Herb salad, black sesame and cultured cream Poached Salmon Troisgros, sorrel cream and shallots Choux au Craquelin, whipped crème fraiche, rhubarb and rum Service was impeccable throughout dinner. There is also a nice wine list available. This was a first class dinner, we enjoyed every course. It is not inexpensive but it was a night out celebration. read more

Delicious, yet ridiculously expensive sandwiches. I came in expecting to be wowed. I had a vegetarian roasted carrot sandwich - at seventeen dollars. It definitely wasn't worth $17. Husband had a turkey and pesto sandwich, also not worth $17, and a small bag of Kettle brand chips for $3 - usually $1.50 anywhere else. $44.03 for two sandwiches and a single bag of chips. good sandwich as far as sandwiches go, I don't think it was worth it, but maybe you will. The staff was also not awesome, I waited patiently as they flirted with some young women that were sitting at the table before they pulled themselves away to help with my order. But before walking away one of them, in an attempt to give the ladies his phone number, tried air dropping me his info ‍ read more

What a slice of heaven. Small and intimate. Perfect dining experience. Personal interactions with every single Troubadour family member. The textures. The sweet, salty balance or each bite was orchestrated to perfection. 10s across the board. Each course is beautifully presented. Tartare w a butterfly made out of ash, wow! Over the top, generous caviar with delicate flowers and cups of crème fresh. Thank you for the best meal I have had in a decade. read more

Staff does not give accurate information. Extremely disappointed, as I planned my day around this establishment.

My goodness! Neither am I a huge fan of sandwiches nor am I into cold sandwiches, but Troubadour was probably one of the best cafe sandwich experiences I've ever had! My boyfriend and I were in Healdsburg for the weekend, and this small sandwich shop was first on my list of food spots, after hearing many rave reviews. It's an order at the counter shop with sandwiches that are Togo style. We went with the pear, truffle and Turkey, plus the spicy salami (something along the lines of that?!). Upon first bite we were amazed by the quality of the spongey soft bread and the simple ingredients. I loved the smokiness of the spicy salami and the light cheese spread on each of the sandwiches. I'd highly recommend a visit! After two sandwiches, we really wanted another one! A bit pricey for a sandwich but nonetheless worth it if you're in the area. read more

These sandwiches were absolutely perfect down to every little detail. The bread is the most magical part of the experience, absolutely stunning baking work. The fillings were equally as decadent and delicious. The menu was focused and thoughtful, but also offering some diversity of choices. I got nothing but the highest praise for this spot -- I could not imagine every visiting Healdsburg without a stop here for lunch. They have reached as near to perfection as we are able to -- run don't walk! read more

I'll just get to the point. The Troubadour has some great sandwiches! I tried the Pastrami sandwich. Very different from what I've eaten before. Instead of thin sliced, the pastrami is cut about 1/4" thick. It's topped with their own version of sauerkraut, which in my opinion, looks and tastes better than the generic stuff most restaurants serve. The bread is fresh, made just a few feet away. Needless to say, the sandwich was excellent. FYI- you get what you pay for. At eighteen dollars, the price matches the quality of the sandwich. Being in Healdsburg, it's not unexpected. So maybe you don't come here everyday for your 30 minute lunch break where you just want to eat quickly and get back to work. Going to the Troubadour is going to a nice restaurant, except there's no waitress, silverware, or tablecloth (and that's ok). read more

Great find when we stopped for lunch after roaming around in Healdsburg. They had several good menu choices offering something for everyone and they make/sell bread as well. Our crew got the hot pastrami, the Italian and the chicken sandwich. All were delicious and the portion sizes were huge! I could barely eat half of my Italian. read more

I've had my fair share of amazing pastrami sandwiches (Langer's + Brent's in LA, Katz's + Liebman's in NY, Zingerman's in MI) and I have to say that the pastrami at Troubadour is hands down, without question, the best Pastrami I've ever had in my life. The sandwich had thick juicy cuts of meat with the perfect amount of fat and flavor that was surprisingly not overwhelming. I really loved the simplicity of the sandwich because you can really taste the quality of the meat, which I have to say was tastier and more tender than the famous slow smoked briskets in Texas. Honestly this tasted more like a high end prime rib sandwich. Even though I live in SF, I would gladly make the 90 min drive just to get another bite of heaven that is the Troubadour Pastrami! read more

Great little bread and sandwich shop. AND Coffee and juices. Our sandwiches were great.

This amazing establishment is absolutely incredible and I encourage anyone looking for a high end yet street food twist on tastiness to the mix along with its connection to Quail & Condor the boutique bakery so you can also get world class bread. The owners are very amazing they work very hard in the community and I am so grateful they decided to open up these businesses to enjoy such amazing foods. read more

I previously wrote a review for the sandwich shop. This is for the dinner service. This was by far the best fine dining experience I have ever had. Each dish was unique, creative, and most importantly, delicious. There are several wonderful dishes here. They accommodated my preference for no pork/shellfish and were very gracious about it, despite it being prix fixe. Service was excellent, and I had an amazing bottle of wine. Ambiance was cozy and fun. 10/10 recommend. read more
