    hot cocoa
    Lici T.

    I only got a hot cocoa; it was sweet in a good way! I really loved it and felt like a kid again drinking a hot cocoa with a mountain of whipped cream on top! I really enjoyed drinking the hot cocoa in the spectator seats to watch a hockey game! Fun experience that i'd recommend!

    If you're visiting the Charles M. Schultz museum don't forget to visit the Warm Puppy Cafe! It's the cutest little cafe with everything Peanuts and Snoopy related. It's also attached to an ice rink which I thought was really nice - but be warned. Depending on the season it will be packed. Everything we had was really good, definitely recommend a hot chocolate if the weather calls for it. I believe some menu items are seasonal and rotate but I really enjoyed the carnitas tacos (if they have them, i definitely recommend) and my husband got a turkey sandwich. It was just your typical turkey sandwich, nothing to write home about. Honestly though - even if the food wasn't good I would come here for the vibes and experience alone.

    It was my first time visiting the warm puppy cafe and it was so cute inside I could not believe. They also have an ice skating ring inside which is amazing. I ordered their grilled cheese with fries but you do have the option of getting tomato bisque instead. It was perfectly crisp and delicious. The fries were also perfectly crisp. I also got a root beer float and the ice cream they used was one of the beat ever. There is plenty of seating inside and the employee who took our order was very nice.

    Right next to the museum so it came in for a quick bite, nice place to sit down and relax. Able to see all those skaters on the ice rink. And it's very decorated very cute with peanuts. We made a purchase the services very nice and quick.

    If you love the Peanuts this is a must do for you. The food & prices are okay but all the Snoopy & Peanuts themed decor makes it worth the visit. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich with fries. It had a messy sauce on it which made it tough to eat. My friend got the chili & corn bread. Charles M Schulz, the creator of the Peanuts used to come here for lunch. It's cafeteria style so you order at the counter and pick it up when they call your number. It's attached to the ice rink & across the street from the Charles M Schulz Museum.

    Chicken Tenders & Fries with a Root Bear Float
    Mike L.

    Typically, whenever I'm hungry and in an area that I don't find myself in all that often, the Yelper in me always feels compelled to hop on the app and search for the best places to get something to eat at. Trendy, popular, highly rated, just looks interesting...it doesn't matter. In this case, though, all of that went out the window. After all, following a day spent checking out the Charles Schultz Museum, the experience wouldn't be complete without stopping to grab something to eat at the Warm Puppy Cafe! Even if we figured the food may not amaze us... Located inside Snoopy's Home Ice, across the street from the museum, Warm Puppy Cafe is more of a snack bar for the ice rink than an actual cafe. That being said, the menu actually has a solid selection to choose from. Given their nature, we weren't surprised to see the likes of hot dogs, pretzels, chicken tenders, fries, and ice cream offered, but we were surprised to see things like clam chowder, caesar salad, garden burgers, pulled pork sandwiches, foccacia pizza, reubens, egg salad sandwiches, caprese sandwiches, and even pot pies show up. Their signature offering, though, are their variety of hot cocoas, which we, tragically, weren't in really in the mood for. Since we were looking to just get a snack before heading back towards SF, we opted to just get an order of their CHICKEN TENDER & FRIES ($13) and a ROOT BEER FLOAT ($7). Overall, both were mostly fine for what they are, but they also left us with mixed feelings. On the plus side, both the tenders and the fries were crispy and I like how the chicken wasn't dried out and how the fries weren't very greasy. Yet, on the other, the portion felt a little light on chicken (one of the pieces was pretty small). As for the float, the taste of it was pretty decent and didn't taste overly sweet, but it's disappointing how they use soft serve instead of ice cream (which would've gave this a creamier texture). Between how a lot of folks mosey on over from the Charles Schultz Museum, as well from the adjoining ice skating rink, there's typically a line here regardless of what time it is. Plus, given how their prices aren't all that terrible, it's a viable option to get something to eat while you're already in the area. Personally, while I'm certainly glad to have come here, I'd be lying if I said I'd choose to come back here for a meal over checking out what the rest of Santa Rosa has to offer. However, if/when we're back at the museum and in search of a treat, I wouldn't be opposed to finding out why their hot cocoa is so popular!

    On our ultimate Snoopy adventure trip, we had to stop and visit the Schulz campus, which included the Snoopy Home Ice Rink. Inside, you will find the cutest little cafe where Charles Schulz himself used to hang out. In fact, his regular table is still there and reserved for him. The Peanuts theme throughout this cafe is super cute. From the Peanuts stained glass windows to the creative menu names. The menu is simple, but the quality of the food is great. Not gourmet, but hot, fresh and what would be expected at a quick service snack bar. Definitely get yourself a hot chocolate! The cup that they come in is very cute and it was just down right a great cup of hot chocolate! If you are planning to do a little Ice Skating, be sure to plan accordingly. There are specific times that are available for open skating. When we were there, there was a hockey tournament going on so we were not able to ice skate. Overall, great little cafe. I am so glad we made time to sit and enjoy this one.

    Chicken Strips
    Taryn R.

    Warm Puppy Cafe is all about nostalgia, the kind that instantly makes you smile. With Charlie Brown touches everywhere, it's playful, cozy, and just genuinely fun to be in. It's less of a traditional restaurant and more of a snack bar tucked inside the skate rink, which honestly adds to the charm. It does get crowded, and the line was definitely long, but it moves pretty quickly. I waited about 15 minutes in line for six meals, and everything came out within about 25 minutes total, which is impressive for how busy it was. We ordered chicken strips and fries, a grilled cheese, and a tuna sandwich, and everything was solid. Good quality, simple comfort food that hits the spot after skating or walking around. The staff was friendly and kept things moving, which makes a big difference in a busy space like this. Cleanliness-wise, it's what you'd expect from a high-traffic spot with skaters, tourists, and families coming through nonstop, not spotless, but understandable given the environment. Overall, it's a fun stop, especially with everything around it. Being attached to the ice rink and the Charlie Brown museum makes it more of an experience than just a place to eat. Definitely worth it for the vibe alone.

    It's an ice ring cafe with a Peanut's Charlie Brown and gang theme. Ordering is fast. You get a pager and once it vibrates your food is ready for pick up. The food is typical fast food.

    Pulled pork sandwich, Chili bowl, Miller hot dog
    Kenny B.

    Fun stop for food after visit the Charles Schulz Museum. My wife is a major Snoopy fan. Much more than most people might imagine. So when we visited the museum we had to stop and check out the cafe as well. The line can be long, as it's attached to the skate rink, which I imagine stays busy. But it moved relatively fast and we didn't have to wait too long for our food. I was able to secure a table outside with minimal wait time. The variety of hot chocolate looked great. But we were there around lunch time and were hungry. I went for something different and got the pulled pork sandwich. It was actually far better than I expected. The bread was toasted and very fresh which makes a big difference. The fries were also good. My wife ordered the Miller Hot Dog combo and it was very tasty. She also ordered a chili for us to try. Again, better than expected. Hearty flavor and very tasty. Our kids got tenders and grill cheese which were serviceable and pretty standard. All in all, it was surprisingly better than expected. It's not a fancy gourmet meal. But c'mon, it's Peanuts/Snoopy themed and it's on site with the museum, ice rink and gift shop. Honestly not bad at all, we'd eat there again on our next trip to the museum. I'd like to try the cocoa next time!

    The warm puppy cafe has the very best hot chocolate drinks. It is inside Snoopy's Home Ice and just next to the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center building. I highly recommend "the gang" drink. It was the best hot chocolate I've ever had. It was rich and creamy. I liked the salty peanut butter sauce on top of the whipped cream. The burger looked delicious next to our drinks. Overall, the atmosphere is great with a Snoopy theme. The menu is wide and the choices are varied at reasonable prices. The hot chocolate is a must-have drink. You will never go wrong. The hot chocolate drink paired with peanut butter is a perfect match. For your information, the line, however, was kind of slow due to the size of the shop and its limited space. So be prepared and be patient.

    turkey cheddar sandwich, Good Grief Grilled Cheese with tomato soup, Snoopy's Special
    Michelle Z.

    Such a cute spot to have lunch near the Charles M Schulz museum & ice rink! The food options looked pretty basic but honestly everything was very good! I loved the grilled cheese & flavorful tomato soup (did not taste like it just came out of a can. Super flavorful and creamy!) I also liked the turkey cheddar sandwich -- came with veggies and flavorful aioli & big serving of fries. The snoopy's special came with a souvenir plastic dog bowl which was cute but the food was pretty simple -- just a normal hot dog and lays chips. The price of everything was honestly not that bad; for 3 entrees we paid $40. I wish we had room for the hot chocolate because it looked so good & the cup was adorable! Service was friendly and food didn't take too long to come out. There's lots of seating inside & outside. I loved sitting in the little courtyard outside next to the huge snoopy hedge.

First of all, since it was $17, I asked the server how big the waffle would be, and he reassured me that it would be large, thick, and filling. It looked nothing like that. In my opinion, there also wasn't nearly enough whipped cream. I definitely expected more for $17. Second of all, it was NOT cooked through at all. It was literally dough. After that, I completely lost my appetite and didn't want to order anything else. For $17 I expected it to be the best waffle of my life. Instead, it was the worst one I've ever had. My husband ordered the Breakfast Burrito with Bacon and green sauce. He said it was just ok. He couldn't say anything good or bad about it. The service was good. Our server even comped the entire bill, which was very kind of him and we really appreciated it. The only reason this isn't a 1 star review is because of our server. The food is bad and extremely overpriced. We will not be back.

I ordered the Mama Mia with cup pepperoni, pineapple, and jalapeños, and it was absolutely fantastic. The salty pepperoni, sweet pineapple, and kick from the jalapeños were perfectly balanced. Even if you're firmly on Team "Pineapple Doesn't Belong on Pizza," this one might make you question your life choices. The crust deserves some love too. It wasn't one of those giant bread loaves pretending to be pizza. It was light, perfectly cooked, had just the right amount of crunch, and let the toppings do the talking. To wash it down, I paired it with a Blind Pig followed by a Happy Hops IPA.

    Famous for their award winning beers, the Russian River Brewing Company was formed by the…read moreCalifornia Korbel Winery in 1997. The original brew master became the co-owner when the winery left the beer business in 2003. It was then moved this location in 2004, opening as a brewpub. It's been on my list of places to visit for a while, so my wife, her mom, and I took the opportunity to stop in for a Thursday night dinner on our way to San Francisco from Fort Bragg. The inaugural double IPA (aka Imperial IPA) was made by the current co-owner at a different brewery in 1994. Double means it uses double the hops and malts, and the ABV is quite a bit higher. He then created Pliny the Elder (ABV 8.0%) in 2000, recognized as the most famous DIPA. The track continued, with Pliny the Younger in 2005, a triple IPA (using triple the hops and malts with ABV of 10.25%). This version is available once a year in the spring, since it costs so much money and time to make. With so much malt being used, a large amount of time (and hops) is needed to balance. I've had Pliny the Elder in bottles before, and really liked it: I don't like the hoppy 'piney' taste in my beers, but also recognize that not enough will make the beer too sweet (which I've been facing with a lot my island beers lately). Parking is street only, but there was a lot of it, with the metered parking only requiring payment till 6 pm. We were greeted warmly by the hostess and immediately seated at a table near the bar. As expected, it was quite loud, with after work folks having a good time. We got menus, ordered our food, and then decided what to do about flights. The brewery is also known for their Belgian style and thus offers two different flights. It was my first time, and didn't know how much my wife could help, so decided to order the California Sampler (a selection of 12 different West Coast 5 oz. pours of ales and lagers for $15.45) to start: O.V.L. Stout (Old Vic Loyals) - Irish nitro stout - really beginning to love stouts, and this one was good. Velvet Glow - lager - solid. Ending up buying 6 pack to bring home ($12.99) STS Pils - pilsner. Bought a 6-pack for $12.99. Russian River Porter - Blind Pig IPA - West Coast IPA Happy Hops - Juicy IPA Mosaic Stack - West Coast IPA SimCoe 25 - West Coast IPA Citra Flash Mob - West Coast IPA Mind Circus - Hazy IPA DDH Pliny the Elder - really good. bought two cans at $5.99 each. Pliny the Elder - the original Felt pretty good, so decided to order the Belgian Sampler (9 different for $13.63), Surprisingly, I didn't like it nearly as much (my favorite fruit beer during this trip was the Howzit Punch beer). Petite Robert - table beer Little White Lie - Belgian White Robert - saison Perdition - biere de sonoma Damnation - golden strong ale Mortification - quad Supplication - sour brown ale Intinction - barrel aged pilsner Consecration - sour dark ale In terms of the food, it was solid. The 8 pc chicken wings ($17) were good, and the cheesy garlic bread ($10) was filling. I had the meatball sandwich ($16) and upgraded the fries to a spinach salad (+$4): it was tasty, loved the toasted French bread and marinara sauce, with the meatballs being OK (tasted from frozen)...loved the spinach salad with strawberries and blue cheese. We finished off our meal with a Vinnies (co-owner) sundae: good vanilla ice cream with whipped cream, chocolate sauce, and a lot of almond slivers. Payment was at the table, and me being again very pleasantly surprised at how little the flights were (a typical brewpub where they charge $3-$4 per 5 oz, would have cost 4 times as much...though of course I wouldn't have drunk as much either).
