    Whenever I drive up to Santa Rosa, I stop here on my way. Wonderful, friendly people :) Highly recommend stopping here for coffee.

    The service is amazing at this location. We do a weekly team coffee order and they are always super quick at getting upwards of 12 drinks out to us quickly, and with a great accuracy. We never have issues of drinks not being made with the specifications incorrect. The almond croissants are also very good when warmed up.

    I do not live in Novato but drop into the area every so often. When I do and I am craving a coffee, this Peets is my go to. Been stopping in since they opened 14 years ago. It is located off Highway 101, super close distance. The freeway is across the street. I have never had a bad drink here. Plus the pastries and breakfast sandwiches are not bad. I prefer them over SBs, better tasting and quality in my humble opinion. The drinks and food are consistent to the normal Peets standards. Pricing is on par to other like coffee places and seem to be increasing over the years. They have a few tables for inside seating both regular height and pub. They have an outdoor patio which is a poplar gathering spot and no matter what time of the day or year, it is packed.

    2 pounds of coffee beans, oddly packaged

    New Baristas need better training. I often go in at end of day and the service can be very spotty, particularly with new people. I recently ordered 2 pounds of beans. One bag was overstuffed and the other very underfilled. See photo. No label on either. If these beans were for a gift, I would have asked for a redo.

    Chicken and waffle

    This is one of my local coffee spots and the other day I saw they had a new item, a chicken and waffle sandwich. I thought it was strange from a coffee shop but was curious and a bit hungry. It smelled good like waffles...In the past I've had this with fried chicken and was expecting that. This was more of a slightly spicy chicken patty. I think there was also cheese and bacon on it. It wasn't bad but it was definitely odd for a Pete's. I'll be curious to see if it remains on the menu. Now that I know what to expect I may grab it again in a pinch.

    This location is now the closest to my parents' new home after 32 years at their previous home. We stopped here after our overnight visit to help them out. Masks and covid precautions followed. Clean and pleasant. Friendly staff. Quickly got our 2 drink order out. Only bad thing is no dine-in still and the bathrooms are blocked from usage. I miss pre-covid small luxuries as being able to sit in and enjoy your drink and to be able to piss w/o having to plan ahead or find a fast food place. They just don't want to clean them I guess but it is part of having guests. However many drink/eateries are using covid to cut services/convieniences/costs which are understandable but many take advantage to go too far. Iam sure places won't cut their prices back down after raising them later when Covid is behind us. Anyways, this is a good Peet's near the freeway to stop and get a drink.....to-go for now of course.

    Got the vanilla latte and it was good. The coffee shop was clean and quiet. There were 2 gender neutral restrooms which were also clean. And, the barista/cashier was efficient. I just hope they ask for your rewards prior to payment.

    Nice patio
    Bill H.

    Great local coffee house to meet friends and cients. Friendly attentive service and nice selection of coffee pairing offerings to eat. Sunny patio vibe will make you feel good on your staycation or business meeting.

    The prettiest and by far bestest Peets!! if I'm ever in the area again will so visit and recommend to others

    This is my go-to Peet's coffee place when I'm in Marin. I like the location being near the freeway exit/entrance. Although parking can be a bit challenging during peak hours, this Peet's location is alongside trendy other shops and restaurants. This Peet's coffee place never has too long a wait when I go there during my breaks. I like the energy and enthusiasm of the Peet's servers. They consistently get my order correctly, ground my beans perfectly, and prepare my drinks piping hot. As long as I work in Marin, I'll definitely keep coming back and back and back.......

Wonderful single origin coffees available -pour over style as well as a variety of various espresso drinks, and tea. In the back is the master roaster machinery, and a nice lounge with pinball machines to hang out in and create conversation with other patrons. The staff is real knowledgeable and real personable and frequently make me laugh, and they know their product very well and will share information with the consumer. It's OK to ask a question and they won't yell at you if you want cream in your coffee. They do keep it behind the counter in the refrigerator, by request only. For some reason, coffee always taste better to me on site than at home. Maybe it's the temperature of the water, maybe it's just the ambience and the brief conversation? I don't know but I prefer to have my cup outside of the home. I'm a rather social being. The owner has a knack for hiring, competent, talented and friendly staff! Truly the BEST coffee anywhere, seriously...... maybe that's why they won so many awards?! Beans are available daily and frequently with half-price sale on your second bag. A great gift to send somebody in a different city, throw in a T-shirt or other swag while you're at it. I found that relatives and friends really dig stuff from the Bay Area. There are a variety of "at home barista"accoutrements available for sale to include the lovely Chemex glass coffee maker. Grinders, scales, etc. A coffee paraphernalia shop- "legal speed". Check out the pastry case with some local favorite bakeries representing. In closing, five stars throughout*****! Now get over there, I hope I got something started for you......

I ordered an iced mocha with oat milk during a busy time and waited about 20-30 minutes. While I was waiting, I noticed several customers who ordered after me received their drinks. I went up to the counter to ask about my order, and the cashier seemed confused. The barista remembered making my drink and believed someone may have accidentally taken it since there had been a drink sitting on the pickup counter for a while. The barista told me he would remake my drink and even offered the drink to another customer instead of discarding it. However, he continued making other orders before remaking mine. Just as I was about to ask for a refund, I finally received my coffee. I understand that mistakes happen, especially during busy periods, but better communication and order tracking would have made a big difference. Unfortunately, my first experience left a bad impression. As much as I liked the atmosphere, I won't be returning, and I can't recommend this coffee shop based on the service I received.

I opted for the vibrant red rose. It tasted exactly like a flavorless sponge drenched in l milk. Not even a hint of rose. Incredible, the white icing was equally flavorless, although it looked beautiful, with a sprinkling of dried rose petals. The overall effect was like eating a piece of cake that had fallen in a puddle of milk - with dried leaves in the icing. I had three bites and then told them guy behind the counter that it had no flavor and all he could offer was "I'm sorry". For $8 and no offer to make it right, it was a really bad experience and I would never go there again.
