Remember to quickly set aside and hide your cookies you want to take home. The cookies are so good and beautiful that they will disappear. The first event was my son's graduation from SFSU. The graduation hats and gowns were a nice black color with gold tassels standing out, and the gator cookie was smooth with bright colors of bright gold and purple. We had two different graduating years as one graduation was in 2023 and the other was this year. Kara created a cookie for each year with a bit of sparkle in the frosting behind the year. We did vanilla and they were a hit. The second event was a large bridal shower. Between the three hostesses with very specific requests, we found four different designs and used some of Kara's. Let's start with ORDER THE LEMON COOKIES. Oh my goodness!!!! Delicious!!! Not that awful pledge flavor, but a light fresh meyer lemon taste. Because there is fresh meyer lemon in the dough and frosting. If you are a vanilla fan, then you will love the vanilla. It was also tasty. Lemon was the bride's choice, and a good choice it was! I cannot even describe how beautiful these cookies came out. We gave Kara photos and a color palate. As hostesses, we wanted these cookies perfect. They were. My only complaint is that when I got home, there weren't any left. We way over ordered, but the guests were so taken with the taste and how pretty the cookies were, they took three or four home for later with their coffee. Honestly, we over ordered because we wanted guests to take treats home to their families. I was so excited when I found a few in a bag for my son. My apologies for my crudy photography skills. The cookies were a take away gift, so they are in their little keep them fresh bags. Obviously the theme was Bride to Bee. The golds were pure and the intricacy of her decorating was meticulous. We couldn't have asked for more amazing cookies. Guests are still talking about them. Thank you, Kara, for putting so much heart and artistry into making our two major celebrations even more special.

You can tell there is real craftsmanship in the baking. The atmosphere here perfectly encapsulates the Hollister spirit. It has that beautiful country, organic, farm-to-table feel that makes you want to stay all day. A huge shoutout to David, who did an amazing job basically building everything himself; the attention to detail in the space is stunning. The staff is top-tier as well. Our bartender outside was incredibly sweet and made us feel right at home. The only downside? I wish they were open more days! This place is a local treasure.

The initial views make you wanting more. Walk up the ramp into their bakery. They had all sorts of yummie looking #pastries to drool over. They have cookies, ice cream and a few hot and cold meals. We shared a pumpkin croissant which was topped with toasted almonds. I suggest getting it warmed up. Their selections change with the seasons so be sure to check their website on their offerings. We sat outside to admire the views. Wow. I'm so thankful to have come across this place. Perfect for sitting in silence and relaxing or to enjoy the company of good vibes. There's tons of seating and so much to look at. Outside they've also got beer on tap. My pictures don't do it justice, but I assure you, you will not be disappointed. And as you drive off, be sure to drive slow and check out all of the cute decor and signs they have along the way.

Looks like they bake their cookies fresh on site, but I'm not sure who makes their ice cream. When we walked in a gentleman told us they had cinnamon rolls as well. So basically you can order cookies or ice cream or combine the 2 into an ice cream sandwich. So I decided on 1 Red Velvet cookie and one Chocolate Chip cookie with Cookies and Cream ice cream since they were out of Cookie Dough, (the absolute best ice cream flavor in the world). I believe the cookies run about $4 each and if you get an ice cream sandwich, that runs about $8. The cookies are a decent size and the scoop of ice cream I received was generous. So much so that it makes trying to take a bite of the sandwich practically impossible. You pretty much have to come at it from the side or just bite one side of the sandwich at a time. But the cookies were soft, sweet and tasty and the ice cream was pretty good too. The quality was good but I did think the pricing was a little high though.

The only other local domestic rival I know off that is near as good hails from 3 Steves Winery in Livermore, and they get the grapes form DeRose! So, do yourself a favor and pick up a bottle of the Cab Franc. You won't regret it. The Cab Franc is a 100% Cabernet Franc, not blended. The Vines are pruned in the winter, the Grapes are exposed to sunlight with careful leaf removal and the Clusters are thinned after veraison. Common tasting notes are Berries , dark Stone Fruit, a dash of pepper a subtle hint of roses. Can you tell I like is wine? The vineyard is located on both sides of the San Andreas Fault and wines are part of the old Vaché planting method. DeRose wines are also organically farmed, just not not certified. Oh, can't forget the dry farming as well. The Winery is in the middle of nowhere... It's a journey onto itself to get here. There isn't much else around. There is another winery down the road, but that's about it. Don't be scared to make the trip. They recently opened a Tasting room in San Martin. Can't wait to stop by and do some wine tasting there...

This is a great way to do wine tasting.
