I had the huevos rancheros and it was so delicious and beautifully fresh. My husband had the breakfast sandwich on the best tasting bread from Red Bird Bakery with the Estero Gold cheese. Tons of great flavors. I wish I worked there when they were perfecting those dishes. We will be back soon!

Really nice people working here. We were so happy to find something that had outdoor seating and was dog friendly during a weekend where rain was heavy and often. Parking is limited and lotsa tourists around. Park at the cute country store and buy a soda and then go over to Estero. Great menu, lots of little creative dishes and the service was so nice and friendly and sweet. Well run, deliciously satisfying food, cooked well, and lots of crab based specials that looked awesome. On a quiet part of Highway 1, go here and be impressed and well taken care of. Thanks for the delicious coffee and food!

We love this place. Indoor or outdoor seating. We usually sit outside. We've been there with just me, a couple family members, and larger groups of family and friends. They accommodate all. It's hard to choose whether breakfast or lunch is the best. But I will say they offer the best burger and fries of anywhere I've been. Just thinking about it makes me want to head over for lunch. Their fries are nothing less than spectacular. The best fries anywhere near here. They pair together nicely. We've spent many a Sunday morning dining outside with Mimosa's all around. Sharing our delicious choices with each other. Really every dish is memorable. The staff is so kind and happy to work there. That's an added bonus you can't value enough. You gotta get out there. Sadly I didn't take any pics. Next time I'll be sure to take pics and post. The best burger in Sonoma County.

This small place is great. Cute interior seating area and the food is delicious. At least the breakfast burritos are as that's all I've ever had. I love them. I order with bacon and no sour cream, salsa or sauce to go. Customer service is excellent.

Had the best Huevos Ranchero ever. The Ranchero Sauce is homemade. The chorizo is homemade. Eggs over easy were perfectly cooked. Fresh pot of Decaf was brewed. Husband had the two eggs scrambled, sausages, potatoes, buttermilk biscuit and homemade blueberry jam. Everything was hot. We enjoyed ourselves sitting outside on the patio with our dog, in sunshine. Service was great and very friendly (guy from Petaluma) ! Woke up the next morning and decided we had to go there again before leaving the coast. Did Huevos Ranchero again. Highly recommend. Would like to try more items on the menu but 3 1/2 hours is a long drive for a meal.

A must-stop when heading back to the city from the Sonoma Coast. The staff are friendly and attentive and the cafe is lovely inside and out on the patio. The parking situation is a bit tricky, so be sure to car-pool! This menu is, in my opinion, the perfect brunch assortment. Lots of eggs, sourdough, and potatoes which is exactly what I want on a Sunday morning. Mimosas and coffee are great, too! I especially love the local-produce focus - you can definitely taste the difference.

What a delightful little gem out in Valley Ford! This place has been on my radar for quite some time, but I finally made it out there on a gloomy Sunday morning. It was Memorial Day weekend and I was anticipating busyness and likely a wait time. When we pulled up around 10am, parking was a bit difficult at first. If you're lucky, there are a handful of parking spots right beside Estero Cafe, otherwise you have to venture around looking for closed businesses to park at. Given Valley Ford is very small, took us a moment to find a spot, but once we did we walked over to scope out the scene. We arrived right at the perfect time. The tables were full inside, but there happened to be one left on the patio, sold! Patio is petite with a handful of tables. It's cute surrounded by planters and plenty of space for your furry companion to join you. They serve breakfast and lunch all day! We started off with a coffee and oj mimosa. For my dish I ordered the Sonoma omelette and my partner got the classic, potato and eggs with a side of sausage. Given I could see they were super busy and the kitchen had to have been slammed, there was a minor wait on the food. Not a problem to me, have to respect the people working hard in the back, and our server was sure to fill up our coffee cups anytime they got low. Once the food arrived, I was lowkey drooling with excitement for my first meal of the day. They supply organic ketchup on the table, a house made habanero hot sauce, and a delicious home made blueberry(?) jam. We were set! The potatoes were simple, yet delicious. Basically little chopped up thick French fries. The sourdough toast was great, but the jam made it even better! The omelette was the star of my plate though. Filled with king trumpet mushrooms, spinach and onion, as well as my newest discovery and love, Esterto gold cheese! Covered that bad boy in their hot sauce, every bite had me in food heaven! An absolute perfect breakfast! My partner was also very hyped about his basic little breakfast, favorite being the jam and the sausage links! Overall, a wonderful first experience. Great food, kind service, was a litttttttle expensive, but hey, i see it as paying for a quality meal and support a small business deep out there. Worth every penny! I will most certainly be back to try more.
