Lady Blume Microbakery + Coffee

 

This bakery and coffee shop is located in Cotati and has such an inviting interior. Their drink variety is incredible–from lavender and white sage infused coffee to wellness shots, it’s hard to choose which drink to have that day!

Cotati Coffee Company 

 

In the heart of downtown Cotati, there lives Cotati Coffee Company. When you walk in, you’re greeted by a bulletin board full of community events and inviting employees. It’s so cozy! They have a variety of options, including countless special drinks unique to their location and delicious danishes, croissants, etc. It is a Cotati classic!

Sunflower Caffe

 

While this location is a delicious brunch spot, we HAD to include it because this cafe is worth checking out. Seawolf Living actually had the opportunity to visit this location and review our experience (spoiler alert: it was a 10/10!) Check out our video here!

 

The Sunflower Caffe is absolutely breathtaking, and was quite a surprise when they offered us cozy blankets at the door for the best dining experience. The back patio is so cozy, with greenery and fairy lights providing a welcoming ambience. The coffee was incredible, and we all came to the conclusion that the red velvet mocha was just incomparable. Their food was mouthwatering and absolute perfection. We would recommend it! You can find the Sunflower Caffe in the beloved Sonoma Plaza.

Hardcore Espresso

 

This coffee shop is a hidden gem, in my opinion. Located in Sebastopol, Hardcore Espresso is unlike any place you’ve been to before. The uniqueness stems from their eclectic decor, as they’ve got nostalgic pieces laid throughout. Not to mention, their coffee is delectable. In the mood to study in nature? We’d recommend Hardcore Espresso’s patio! It’s a wonderful experience.
