History

Established in 1994.

The Basque Boulangerie Café is a second generation bakery, originally started in Sonoma in 1956, as the Sonoma French Bakery in the Sebastiani Theatre building. The family learned the baking trade in their French small towns of Saint Etienne de Baigorry, and Oloron Ste. Marie, located in the Pyrenees mountain range separating France from the Spanish border. The Basque Boulangerie Café is currently located two doors down from the Sebastiani Theatre building, in a stand alone building facing Sonoma’s historic Plaza, at the opening of a small alley called the Place des Pyrenees. The Place des Pyrenees courtyard is home to other local restaurants, and is quite a gathering space. The Basque offers an expanded, all day, café style menu, as well as excellent breads and pastries, that can be enjoyed daily at their café tables or as take-​out, with an excellent organic espresso or glass of local wine or beer.
