    Sarmentine is located in the Barlow. It's a small spot with a few tables inside and a few outside. The bakery is cute and clean and offers not only sweets, but sandwiches and salads. There are lots of decadent looking items in the cases. I opted to try the vanilla eclair which was delicious. My only complaint-the prices are a bit high in my opinion. My small eclair cost over $8. Happy yo have experienced it though.

    The pastries here are absolutely worth the money. I forget the name but I got the pastry with chocolate chip and it was excellent! It basically melts in your mouth, since it's so soft! I normally don't like chocolate in my pastries but this one was delicious definitely not overpowering like some other pastries. The spot is cute and has a few tables inside as well as outside. The workers 0are so nice as well! I will say I was not a huge fan of the coffee but otherwise would come here to eat more pastries!

    liked the chouquette i got at the santa rosa location so much that i got the vanilla one at the sebastopol location. space here is a lot smaller though you get a giant window to watch them bake. liked the vanilla chouquette the most, shell is crisp and cream inside is not too sweet but still rich and tinged with vanilla

    Went here for lunch and got a bag of day old pastries to bring home, gotta try a bit of everything! The service was great, and everything was baked perfectly! The coffee was delicious, and so was the quiche and sandwich!

    Pistachio Tart
    Jennifer E.

    We stopped by here for pastries after our brunch at Fern Bar! When we came in it was pretty late so we only had a few options left (mostly tarts). I chose the pistachio tart which was not only beautifully made but also tasted good! It's not too sweet and the pistachio cream is not too overpowering. The service was good! Staff is very friendly, the ambiance is ok but it gets too hot inside and for me, it will be better if there are some cozy seats or tables to accommodate people who wants to sit down from their walk at Barlow! Otherwise, great pastries! Will come back to check more options!

    Cute little French Bakery at the Barlow. Loved that they carry some gluten-free items. Had some yummy macarons and a wonderful baguette. I'll definitely come back.

    I missed this board and had to get back in line for a chai.

    I love to bake, and this place was a baker's inspiration! The sourdough loaves were crunchy, the Crocquet Monsieur creamy on the inside and buttery crunch on the outside, delectable! Their Chai was subtly sweet and spicy, so comforting good. And the Chocolate croissant , to die for. Wait staff were friendly and efficient, even when I was touring their bakery cases and taking my sweet time to decide. They couldn't have been nicer, considering. This place is amazing and their goods over the top. The hardest part of coming in, is making a decision what to buy.

    Food was very good and filling. Lots of options including vegetarian. It is a great place to bring the family and there is a big play area outside for kids. The service was a little impatient but overall good.

    Pretty good pastries. Coffees orders took forever. Workers are sort of passive aggressive for no reason. Not really worth the hype.

    Almond chocolate croissant
    Shivani P.

    Cute bakery in the Barlow. It has a nice indoor and outdoor seating option and the servers are nice to questions on menu. We tried the almond chocolate croissant and veggies croissant. Veggies croissant was good and warmed up, with broccoli and bechamel sauce. Almond chocolate was heaven- flaky pastry with almond cream and chocolate cream and toasted almonds on top. Yumm! Recommend to come here for a quick bite or sit down at Barlow

    Nice spacious bakery with lots of delicious treats. Staff are all nice. One of the cashiers kept making mistakes though. They gave us 3 vs 2 coffees which they refunded us and gave the 3rd one for free. We got extra goodies after we had our first round and she made a mistake again and gave us a pastry we didn't ask for. At that point we didn't say anything as we knew its yummy and didn't want to get another item for free... - Butter Croissant: really good. It was light color but the texture & flavor were great. It was crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. - Pain Swiss: this was one of the best things we've eaten. Sooo yummy. - Apple crown: flaky pastry with great Apple slices and soft texture in the middle. - we also got rustic bread & cheese for lunch. They also sell yesterday's bread half price.

    This place has amazing products and wonderful customer service. However the way they had to deal with the abhorrent behavior of others is appalling. A customer in line made a mistake in their online order and instead of listening to the employees guidance to address the issue with the manager was expecting the employee to just hand the rude customer free product to make them feel better and kept badgering the young woman needlessly. Marina did an amazing job dealing with it but it was atrocious to see. I hope she is recognized and that customer is no longer welcomed as their behavior was appalling. Otherwise it was a wonderful store, incredible products and a lovely experience. We've been here twice in 2 days.

    It was quick and friendly. I couldn't have asked for a more beautifully cared-for bakery with all the beauty and deliciousness for your eyes to feast upon. Feels very French to me. everything we bought here was light and delicious. Not too heavy not too sweet. Just perfectly delicious if you're in the mood for pastries this is your new favorite spot. Come on down check it out I am quite sure you will not be disappointed. Cheers see you on Yelp 08/25/24 review #351

The staff were super friendly and it's a fun ambience in there. Not like a BR or cold stone with the fluorescent lights. It's clear this is a cherished local spot.

There's not a flavor I don't like. I really enjoy that they offer seasonal flavors like lavender. Give it a try if you're visiting the area. You won't be disappointed. I do miss their old way of weighing the ice cream and charging by weight. You had the option to add some more of a specific flavor if you wanted to. I really dislike that they went with what all other ice cream shops do and just go by "size".

The patisserie is cozy with a few tables inside and a few small tables on the patio. As you enter, you immediately see the glass case with beautiful pastries and cakes. So exciting to see all of their gorgeous creations in our little town of Sebastopol. We had reservations for 1:00 and they sat us at one of their small tables by the door. It worked but it wasn't the most comfortable seat in the house as people were walking in and out of the door and the pastry case was right next to us. There was a group of four near the far end and they offered to move us but then we would have been sitting right next to them. They also have another small private room but that was going to be used for a wedding cake meeting. Gergana is the owner and she greeted us warmly. She said she took over the patisserie in 2019. The other employees were very sweet and helpful. They provided us with a tea menu so we could select a tea from their varied tea menu. They returned with little pots of tea for each of us. There were many people dropping by to pick up a pastry and drink and others stopped by to pick up their cake order. The employees were efficient and quick to help everyone. They refilled our tea pots with hot water and checked on us throughout our time there. The desserts on the top level were our favorites. It came with a candle which was very sweet. The sandwiches on the middle level were chicken, egg salad and cream cheese with cucumber. Our favorite was the chicken salad. Overall, it was a fun experience to savor all of their small samplings and Gergana is there to ensure everything runs smoothly so that your time there is relaxing and extra special. She even gave us a hug as we were leaving. I look forward to visiting this local patisserie again for a cup of a tea and a beautiful pastry.

Pros: I've visited several times for the bakery. The scones are my favorite as they are quite large and delicious, and I also tend to buy the Russian tea cakes as well. The macarons are a little harder and chewier than I expected, but they are still amazing. I actually found Patissierie Angelica specifically because I was looking for high tea services and thus have had their West County High Tea service twice. The second time I had the high tea service, I was given a private room! I particularly enjoyed the lemon curd, jam, and clotted cream with the scones. Patisserie Angelica is also located in a quiet and spacious part of Sebastopol; there is a parking lot that usually has space. Cons: The private room became a little stuffy as there was no air flow (other than an open window) nor air conditioning. However, things might have changed from the last time I was there. Overall: The bakery is truly amazing. I absolutely enjoy the desserts sold there and would love to have more of the high tea service in the future. It's perfect for private parties!

Super cute, mismatched floral china, knickknacks everywhere, gorgeous flowers in the garden. We are on the terrace, which was lovely. The only drawback is that it's right on Main Street with a lot of traffic going by. The food was so good. We started with salad of the adults and crudite with homemade ranch with just a twang of spice to start. Then they brought out 3 tiered tea cake stands for each of us - a kids size, a regular, and a gluten free one. Everything was so delicious. A plate of 5 savory treats, each one more sumptuous than the next. A plate with a perfect scone with a tiny raspberry jam container, lemon curd, and clotted cream (my fav). Last tier had dessert, a chocolate cake with raspberry on top, a shortbread with white chocolate, and fruit. The shortbread cookie was the item I liked the least. They bring you a tea case so you can smell every option. We had grandma's garden, mint, and maple . All tasty. I wish we could have tried even more but they did refill each adorable teapot with more hot water. The price is quite high but it was a lovely way to celebrate. Will definitely come back again. Oh and they do takeout of treats so if you are nearby you can just come in for those.

    I CANNOT believe that I haven't reviewed this business already? You know those places that you go…read moreto so religiously that it's not even a choice anymore? This is one of those places for me. I've been coming here since high school which is (ahem...) a really long time ago. I always order the same things: an Irish Cream flavored creamy Italian soda and a backpacker cookie. Today, Vela was behind the counter when I came in. I started giving her my drink order and she finished it for me. Now, mind you, I grew up in Sebastopol, but I don't live in town anymore. I only end up passing through periodically, but apparently this combination is a little unique. I love it though. It tastes like melted ice cream or a perfect cream soda. Highly recommend. (This is also one of the only places I've ever run across creamy Italian sodas, but it's simply an Italian soda + some half and half. They always measure out the syrup and cream, so it's not too sweet. They typically stir it too before handing it to you and generally stay available for a moment to ensure you don't want them to adjust the balance of syrup, ice and sparkling water.) The backpacker cookie has oats, raisins, coconut, chocolate chips and walnuts. Now, I can be funny about both walnuts and raisins in my cookies, but they always get the balance just right! Also, when I came in a few months ago, they were out of backpackers and my son ordered a cinnamon flat. I ended up trying it and fell in love with it too! So, now I order both and share some with my son when I get home. I've met Bronwen, the owner, as well. One time when I dropped in, she noticed that I was ordering Irish Cream and said she'd wondered whether she should keep stocking that flavor. When she heard how much I loved it, she agreed to keep it stocked. I'll admit; that influences me when I'm driving through. Not that I wouldn't ordinarily choose to stop, but now I have an additional gratitude toward them. So glad that the new owners (Bronwen and her husband have apparently been the owners since 2020) have kept this institution here!
