Things To Do
Sunflower Caffé
Sunflower Caffe is a fantastic breakfast spot right on the town square! They don't take reservations so I would go earlier rather than later, but they have the BEST back patio with beautiful greenery.
El Dorado Kitchen
El Dorado Kitchen is inside a hotel on the square. We don't come to Sonoma without eating her at least once. Our faves are the carbonara and the veggie risotto.
VJB Vineyard & Cellars
We usually use VJB as the lunch stop during a day of wine tasting. They have a cool courtyard patio that allows seating for large groups of people, and you can order pizza from their Italian deli on site!
Arrowood Vineyards & Winery
Arrowood is a smaller winery inside of a house in Glen Ellen, CA. Tom and I love it here because it's a lot more personal of a tasting than some of the bigger wineries. Also, it right up the driveway from another cool place we love: Imagery Winery!
Imagery Estate Winery
Imagery is right next door to Arrowood. It is a bit bigger and has a fun outdoor lawn game area. Also, in our experience, there's normally cute dogs here!
Viansa Winery
Viansa is great for 2 reasons: they have great views, and they have food (not every winery has food so keep that in mind!). Also, they have a Razorback statue in the front similar to the one at the University of Arkansas. Go Hogs!!!
Kunde Family Winery
If you're looking to splurge on a cool experience while in town, Kunde has the most beautiful private mountaintop tasting. The views are unmatched, and the wine is delicious. They also give you a cool tour of the grounds (including the wine cave).
Steiner's Tavern
Just a good old fashioned dive bar. If Tom's not on a golf course in Sonoma, he'll be here.
Sonoma Speakeasy
They have karaoke on Thursdays and live music most Saturday nights!
Tasca Tasca - Portuguese Tapas and Wine Bar
Who doesn't love tapas?
Maya Restaurant
A good place if you're wanting to try Mexican food that's not Tex-Mex! Ash goes for the jalapeño margarita.
