    Dry creek stacker
    Nat P.

    One of my favorite sandwich spots! I love coming here on the way to nearby vineyards. It is such a unique yet nostalgic place with a great variety of food, snacks, and souvenirs. There's always a line, no matter what day it is! The sandwiches here are real star! I'd honestly drive hours away just to get one. And I have done this multiple times! It probably sounds crazy, but once you've had it, you'll understand. My favorite s sandwich here is called the dry Creek stacker with everything on it, and I always ask for a pinch of salt and pepper for the extra touch of flavor. Trust me, one bite and you will love this sandwich! I love how packed it is with everything I love. I would also recommend getting the classic chicken or tuna salad to go. Or better yet get their old-fashioned potato salad. All of them are honestly the perfect side to top off with your sandwich. Honestly, this place never disappoints. Even if you're just passing through, it is worth the stop and the wait since it can get busy.

    Fun place out of town. Great little bar. Great selection of sandwiches and just enough items for sale that don't overwhelm the senses.

    Group of us stopped in for sandwiches to be made as take out. Gotta balance it with wine tasting. Tuna salad sandwich, veggie with hummus sandwich, chicken salad sandwich and one other... cannot recall... except for the fact they were all delicious. Chai lattes were good too! Sat outside to relax. Lots of things to consider buying in the store! Great place to stop!

    Stopped in on Saturday when it was cool and damp out to satisfy our cozy fall sandwich cravings. Thankfully I beat the line! Turkey pesto panini and Turkey cranberry panini for the win! Thanksgiving flavors a few days early! Fresh bread, fresh ingredients, balanced proportions, cheesy goodness! I'm craving another sandwich and hope to get another next week! Highly recommend a visit for their sandwiches, and while you're there be sure to check out their picnic provisions and beautiful holiday decor!

    I always used to pass by this establishment as a kid when my family would take us on long drives through wine country when we'd visit our grandparents all the way from Guam. This past season was finally the time I was able to stop in to try it. Looking at the Dry Creek General Store, it looks like an unassuming, country-style rest stop for day drinkers. After pushing through their screen door, you enter into the general store where you will see shelves of jars of pickles, jams, cookies, and mustards, fridges filled with refreshing beverages, and coolers of ready-made salads and sandwiches. The first time I came in, it was an experience for myself and a group of my friends visiting from the South Bay. After enjoying a once-in-a-lifetime tour of Hawley Vineyards, we stopped here for a quick break and bite-to-eat as we all have different dietary needs and wants so figured this was the place to solve that issue. We came on a Saturday, and while packed, the service was quick and easy. While we were a group of 7, it was easy for us to find seating inside as it was hot outside. From what I recall, everyone was pleasantly surprised and satisfied with what they ordered. It was so good that I decided to take my boyfriend in for a lunch a month later. When my boyfriend and I ended up going, it was later in the day and the place was empty. Ordering was even easier than before and we sat outside on one of the many picnic tables they have while being able to look at the vineyards and watching the workers do their pruning. We ended up ordering a pulled pork pastor. We both really enjoyed the sandwich with a jar of hot peppers I ended up buying when I was browsing. Overall, really great place for anyone visiting the area. Extremely kid-friendly, handicap accessible, and great for groups!

    First time at Dry Creek General Store. Got a cheese sandwich with avocado and a coke here on my way to Lake Sonoma. Wide variety of food and drink, plus a nice selection of wine and gifts. Quick, easy efficient customer service and the exterior has an old fashioned look. Will definitely be returning here.

    First time at the Dry Creek General store. Specifically came for the sandwiches. Pretty busy for the Labor Day holiday but even with the long line...it went pretty fast. The deli case a variety of salads but once they're out, they're out! Ordered the muffuletta sandwich and Italian sub. The muffuletta was amazing! The dutch crunch was soft,l and the sandwich was pretty stacked. My Italian was okay. The bread was kind of hard and the fillings were kind of lacking. It didn't taste bad but nothing over the top. Sat inside cause it was pretty warm but definitely outside if you can for the views!

    We usually come here for grab and go lunch while wine tasting. There are SO many excellent food choices here. It's truly a wonderful place. If you want something very special, it's here. If you want a regular old deli sandwich, it's here, too. And all of it is in a very old, rustic building, staffed with knowledgeable workers who can assist with anything you need. What a treasure.

    Old world charm. Great sandwiches which we took for a picnic at Armstrong Redwoods. Kids could sit on real saddles. Lots of interesting gift items for sale. Nice Christmas decorations. Friendly counter people.

    This place is a solid 2.5. No more, no less. Some of the sandwiches are fairly tasty, and there's always a convenient array of snacks, quality cheeses, crackers, wine, and more. But for what you pay, the ingredients could be better. Also sometimes the sandwiches come burnt. There's a whole deli section where you can buy salads of all types like kale salad, Caesar salad, potato salad, beet salad, etc as well as sautéed veggie mixes, dips, olives, and more. I'd say the food is average 3/5 and service isn't particularly friendly. But it's a convenient place in between wineries and an easy stop to get picnic foods.

    Breakfast sandwich slathered in so much mayo/sauce it was wet

    I hate to do this.. But we had such a poor experience We stopped in on Sunday for breakfast on the way to the Lake. The service was slow, almost forgot to ring us up did it right at the end and boy we wish we wouldn't have paid because this was possibly the worst food I have ever seen be served. It was a wet soupy mess of a burrito with a soggy tortilla that fell apart it tasted like wet scrambled eggs no chorizo flavor involved, and a saucy slathered mayo mess of a breakfast sandwich. This run is over $40 and ended up in the trash. We opened it on the road and couldn't even take a bite it was a huge mess, I tried the sauce which seemed to just be mayo on the sandwich. I would have turned around and asked for my money back if our family hadn't been waiting for us to launch the boat. So disappointing!

    Their build your own sandwiches are a great price! On top of that, they taste amazing. The store is very cute and the outdoor seating is great. Staff were friendly and accommodating. A great stop when you're in the area!

    Lots of seating outside or a great place to get some sandwiches, crackers, cheese, jam or other goodies to bring to nearby wineries. I got the hot brisket sandwich and it was phenomenal. Loved the diced pickled jalepenos in it.

    If you are looking for the absolute best in Sonoma County for high-end foodstuffs, look no further…read more Big John's Market is essentially a pilgrimage site for anyone who takes their pantry seriously. The store is beautifully laid out and curated with an eye for quality that puts most 'gourmet' chains to shame. The produce is consistently stunning, and the local wine selection perfectly reflects the best of our backyard (Dry Creek, Alexander Valley, and beyond). The standouts: * The Deli/Prepared Goods: This is the heart of the operation. The sandwiches are legendary, the pizza is artisanal-grade, and the prepared salads are actually fresh and inventive--not just an afterthought. * The Cheese Section: Simply sublime. It is clear whoever curates this section has a deep passion for local creameries and international classics alike. * The Experience: Despite the high-end inventory, the staff is incredibly friendly and grounded. Plus, in a town like Healdsburg, having a lot with decent parking is a massive luxury that makes the trip even easier. Whether you're stocking up for a dinner party or just grabbing the best lunch in town, this place is the gold standard.

On the rainy day that my wife and I visited Pepper's, it looked like there was only one other person seated at the bar dining at the restaurant. When we walked in, we were quickly greeted and offered a booth close to the front of the restaurant. Not long after being seated, our waitress stopped by to take our drink order, and our coffees took no more than a minute to be brought over. Throughout our meal, our waitress checked on us multiple times to make sure our coffee was never empty. I ordered the oatmeal off the sides menu, and my wife got the chicken fried steak. If you're a fan of chicken fried steak, you will absolutely love the one here. The steak is fried as crispy as a chicken tender, the sausage gravy smothered on top is rich and hearty, and the toasted buttered biscuit served on the side is perfect for sopping up any gravy left on your plate. The over easy eggs we ordered could not have been cooked better. Additionally, the included hash browns were cooked perfectly: the entire surface of the hash browns was cooked to a crispy gold brown with not a single burnt, or uneven bit. I can't recommend Pepper's enough if you happen to be in this part of Healdsburg.
