Petaluma

Old timers will remember Petaluma as the egg basket of Sonoma County.

Petaluma

Petaluma has earned every bit of its moment. CNN named it one of America's best towns to visit, describing it as a riverfront farm-to-table paradise, and the food scene makes that case convincingly from Stellina Pronto's Italian pastries at breakfast to Hog Island Oysters and a buzzing craft cocktail scene in the evening. The historic downtown is a pleasure to walk, with beautifully preserved Victorian buildings, independent boutiques, and a river that gives the whole place an unhurried, small-city feel. The annual Butter and Egg Days Parade celebrates the town's quirky agricultural roots in the best possible way. Petaluma sits under an hour from San Francisco, close to both the coast and wine country, and somehow still feels like it belongs entirely to the people who actually live there.
