There's a lot of food in Santa Rosa.

GROCERY STORES

  • Community Market (there's also one in Sebastapol) - Chain of two, I think it's employee owned.  Co-op style groceries.
  • Oliver's - A local employee-owned chain. Natural foods big box.
  • Andy's Produce - ok actually this is in Sebastapol and not really Santa Rosa at all but you should still know about it because it's pseudo-outdoors which is great during a pandemic
  • And more!

RESTAURANTS & CAFES

  • NY Pie - downtown on 4th street.  pizza is meh.  they're open late
  • Who am I kidding, I have no idea about restaurants and cafes, I moved here at the start of the pandemic.  PEOPLE use restaurants and cafes, but microcovid.org still calculates "don't do it"
  • Start at the Central library and go for a walk north and west.  You'll find 'em.

 

FARMER'S MARKETS & FARM STANDS

  • There are at least two, and they seem to have an antagonistic relationship with each other.
