Spacious nice place with a good enter & exit flow and outdoor seating. The staff are super nice and helpful. They offered free samples and moved chairs around to accommodate customers. We got a Ham sandwich with cheese & butter, loved it. Great fresh baguette, perfect balance of ham, cheese & butter. Also got a baguette and sesame bread to go. Everyone walked out of this place chewing on something and looking happy. Highly recommend.

What I liked best was how the owner came out to greet the line just before opening to enthusiastically tell us what was special that day. My first time at Goguette, I was very happy with the cinnamon roll, cheese bread and olive bread. I will be back, the next time I'm through Santa Rosa.

Stumbled on this place looking for a little snack, and I am honestly glad I did. Immediately, when you walk in, you are greeted by the sweetest lady giving out free samples (which was delicious) and welcoming us in with "bonjours." Her enthusiasm for the restaurant made me smile and felt like she truly cared about her customers. I got two pastries that were delicious and flavorful. The bread had a nice texture and the fruit gave a great contrast/ tartness to the pastry. I was a little worried about this place being overhyped; however, I was pleasantly surprised with them. Be wary though, that they do not have that much seating. Around 4 tables with 2 seats each outside. Some of the tables were in the shade and some were not, so depending on the weather, it can be really nice to be outside. Definitely would recommend this place to any pastry/ bread lovers. They also have some ice cream if you wanted to try that as well.

They have expanded (a while back) so the line isn't as long now. Not that waiting in line is a problem...they come out with "tastes" so you can sample something you maybe haven't had before and it's part of the fun. Chatting with people you don't know but who love bread as much as you do. They make ice cream now (wonderful unique flavors like violet or pear) and they have seating outside so you can enjoy it. Watching people and being in the moment.

Amazing friendly staff with tasty local artisan bread. So why not 5 stars you ask? That's because I still have my #1 local bakery that holds true to my heart. The staff here are sweethearts. Friendly, warm and welcoming. Just like their bread. They have a nice variety to choose from. The bonus is that they're open late. Really late. 9pm in fact. Two thumbs up for this place

I just ordered a simple baguette. I thought it had some well developed gluten with a soft and chewy interior, a nice rise, and a toasty crust. I really liked the strong yeasty flavor that came through every bite! The other pastries didn't really catch my eye but I'm definitely stopping by again the next time I'm in town

The hours are later than other bakeries- 1:30-9:00. We came here 5 minutes before they opened and there was a line outside. It went pretty quickly though. When we left, the line mostly cleared. I'm not a big fan of bread, but wanted to give the place a try seeing as they have 5 stars. I ordered a cup of mango sherbet, garlic bread, and a fruit brioche. The sherbet was nice for the hot day. Both breads were good too- nice crust. I can see why the place has such high ratings.

I was recommended to Goguette Bread recently and was told "Everything" is delicious! I placed an online order a week in advance for Saturday pick up; Pain de Campagne, Pain à l'ail - Garlic bread, Coup de Coeur, Brioche Provençale. When I arrived shortly before opening, a short line already formed. At 1:30pm opening time, the doors was thrown open and I heard BONJOUR as customers filed in. Everyone in line was offered free samples of their bread. Upon arriving at the register, I was greeted with another BONJOUR! I felt like I was transported back to Paris when during my honeymoon, I wandered around the city to various bakeries and cafes. It gave me Paris vibes for sure! From the striped shirts, white pants and red hats and the echos of friendly greetings, I was loving the vibrancy, customer service and the fresh smell of bread everywhere! My bread was packed on the spot after my order was pulled up. I absolutely loved all the bread, so soft and warm and best of all, gluten free. I will definitely be back and next time try their ice cream as well!

Maybe the ever bakery in Sonoma county. Unbelievable breads and French oriented sweets form real European craftsmen and women. Incredible variety of flavored and ingredient laden goodies. The brioche is divine. The baguettes are legendary. Not a fan of the ice cream but I'm in the minority on that one. Great cookies. The wait can be my long but you can preorder in their easy to use website. This is a must try for all!!!!! Full disclosure, the pics are not my own. I forgot to take pictures because I was so enthralled with the looks and smells..and I'm lame.

I don't know if it was because I was tipsy after coming here from Russian River, but this is a gem. I wanted to buy everything but limited myself to a fleurette and a mini loaf of olive bread. The bread is so simple yet so delicious. The fleurette reminded me of epi bread with sesame seeds and poppy seeds, the toasted seed aroma just quickened the devourment of it. The outer layer had a good crisp, you can hear the crunch with every bite, but it wasn't hard where you couldn't bite it directly. The inner portion was so moist and soft. I didn't check the time, but it probably took me less than 30 minutes to eat the whole thing. It was as big as my head too. #proud I saved the mini loaf for the next day, and I was very surprised at how well the texture was maintained. I didn't really do any special storage, just kept it in the original paper wrapping. Did not taste stale at all. A very dangerous but well loved spot indeed. Oh and they have gelato, but BREAD!
