Brew is one of my favorite coffee shops. The coffee is excellent and the space has a welcoming atmosphere that feels like a true third place. It is the kind of spot where you can relax, work, or connect with others comfortably. As someone who is LGBTQ, I really value how accepted and included I feel here. The staff are kind, the environment is warm, and it always feels like a place where I belong.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I finally stopped into Brew Coffee and Beer House, and wow—I’m so glad I did! ☕🥯 I ordered the “Classic Pork Sando”, and it blew me away. The English muffin was thick and fluffy (something I’ve never had before), and you can tell the eggs are fresh. The service was amazing—super attentive and friendly—and the whole vibe of the place is so laid back and inviting. I love that they feature handmade local jewelry and even sell funny stickers. Plus, they serve beer 🍺, which is wild for a coffee shop! I’ve lived in this area forever and can’t believe I hadn’t been here yet. I’ll definitely be back! 🙌

Brew is one of those places that feels like a hug the moment you walk in. Located at 555 Healdsburg Avenue in downtown Santa Rosa, this women-owned, LGBTQ+ friendly coffee shop and brewery has created a space that blends comfort, creativity, and community in the best way. With cozy vibes and welcoming energy, Brew is more than just a spot for coffee or beer—it’s a place where people gather to unwind, connect, and belong. The interior is inviting, with warm tones, a corduroy couch, and bar seating that gives you a front-row view of the TVs or the friendly buzz of the counter. There’s also a lovely outdoor patio area for fresh air and people-watching. They have board games like Life and Mancala that are stacked and ready, while trivia nights and poetry slams add a fun, artistic twist to your usual café hangout. Right before the restroom (which requires a code), there’s a community board filled with flyers for events, clubs, and local activities. They even sell handmade jewelry, which adds to the thoughtful, crafted feel of the place. Brew’s hours vary throughout the week: Monday–Tuesday: 7:30 AM – 8 PM Wednesday–Friday: 7:30 AM – 6 PM Saturday: 7:30 AM – 5 PM Sunday: 7:30 AM – 4 PM The staff are warm and approachable—especially the barista with the blond pixie cut and glasses (I wish I caught her name!). They all give great drink and food recommendations if you're unsure what to try. Their menu offers both breakfast and lunch, and they’ve nailed the balance between comfort and freshness. I’ve tried their breakfast burrito, which was flavorful and satisfying—especially with the salsa and sour cream served on the side. The avocado toast was light and refreshing, with the crunch and zing of onions on top. And on a chilly day, their creamy, thick potato soup with fresh bread was the perfect warm-up. They offer 12 rotating taps featuring some of the best IPAs, beers, and ciders. But if you’re not in the mood for alcohol, you’re still in great hands. Their coffee and tea menu is broad, and even as someone who doesn’t drink regular coffee, I appreciate that they’ll make any decaf drink like a latte or Americano. I usually go with a simple caramel or vanilla decaf latte. Brew also sources baked goods from local favorites like Criminal Baking Company, Village Bakery, Red Bird Bakery, and Grateful Bagel. You can taste the craft in every bite. Accessibility is considered here—there's wheelchair access, though do note the bathroom is in a tighter space due to the building’s layout. They're also pet-friendly, which adds to the community feel. One of my favorite things about Brew is that their values shine through everything they do. They don’t just talk about love and inclusivity—they live it. Their philosophy is centered around craft: “Craft has the power to elevate an experience, change a day, crack a smile.” That ethos comes through in every drink, every interaction, every cozy corner. Whether you're studying, reading, meeting up with a friend, going on a date, or just taking a breather, Brew is the kind of place that feels like it gets you. I give this Santa Rosa gem a full star rating and wholeheartedly recommend stopping by. Come support them! You’ll leave feeling better than when you arrived.

Situated under a giant tree, this delightful cafe is bright and feels personal to your soul. Look up at their specials menu written on the wall near the bar. It’s got some great varieties to their regular menu. Gluten free options available. All their bread is made from Revolution Bread, baked with ancient grains. I got their sunshine toast, it was magical and came with eggs, avocado, spinach, ricotta and micro greens. They know their locals! I was visiting but it was great to see them start orders for locals in line. You can get a ‘unicorn flight’ that is basically a shot of their various espresso blends with different house-made strips like cinnamon, ginger and caramel. Wine and beers on tap We played Trivia (one of their many board game varieties available) and ate breakfast near the windows letting in morning light.

The burritos were the best. The macro bowl was not flavorful at all. The waffles are amazing. The wait was far too long.

Had a Matcha latte, very tasty and well made. Relaxing location to sit for a bit and relax. Despite being between 2 streets, there is very little noise overall. Lots of seating inside and out. Parking is not very plentiful so plan accordingly. There are a few metered spots nearby, and a Parking lot and garage a few blocks away. I will come back and try the beer next time.

It's nice but 2 times there already and usually no space inside, so make sure to bring warm jackets and blankets in case of you go early in the morning or during winter days. Mostly breakfast food and small portions.

The number of times they get my coffee right is zero. And I don't even order anything complicated. A Gibraltar or cortado iced. It's a 1.5 or 1 to 1 ratio of milk to espresso. Without. Fail. Every. Time. It. Is too. Much. Milk. This isn't hard. Don't eyeball. Don't guess. Measure. And it will be right. $6 for a drink I have to consistently ask to be remade every. Single. Time. Is too much. When I settled to go back inside, the barista directly told me an iced cortado/gilbraltar "wasn't a real drink" and they don't make that. So I guess that is why it is always wrong. They are intentionally taking my order and making me a different drink. Also, I tripped hard over ledge of sinking bricks 6 months ago that not only have they not fixed, it's gotten worse. FYI for anyone who hurts themselves on property that they are aware it's an issue and are negligent in not repairing it I'm over it.
