Reviews Summary
Town Square Inc is a beloved local dive bar in Sonoma Plaza, praised for its well-priced, strong drinks and exceptionally friendly atmosphere. Visitors consistently highlight the welcoming staff, especially the owner Megan, and the unique experience of engaging with locals. While it doesn't serve food beyond chips, its late-night hours and laid-back vibe make it a go-to spot.
"A watering hole for the locals, it's a charming place with a jukebox to select your music. Dan, the bartender, is a nice guy who can provide a helpful ear if you wanna unburden yourself. Dan also makes a mean blood mary, which is described as the best in town on the directory board. I agree with that ad, twas a bloody good bloody mary ! You get a shrimp with it !!!!
It's a small place with about 3-4 booths and easy to miss when walking in Sonoma downtown. We found it only coz it was 9:30pm and this was one of the few places open. FYI, its open till late night. Preferably, walk to this place.
The locals are friendly and provide good stories you can sit and provide half an ear to when watching basketball or ice hockey. If you are interested, you can even watch star trek TNG.
No food is available here though except for packaged chips. But deftly a lovely place to end your day at.
A for sure return visit for me next time I'm in sonoma downtown."

"We stumbled upon this bar while doing wedding photos. We desperately needed a drink and they had a funny sign, so we figured why the hell not?! Megan, the owner, was so welcoming and accommodating. She poured us (really tasty) shots, let us take pics ON the bar, and gave us amazing food recommendations. 10/10 would recommend!"

If you're looking for other amazing pastries and coffee, check out the newly opened Marla Bakery in Santa Rosa, which took over the space from one of my favorite cafe/shops, Miracle Plum. You can wander around the Railroad Square Historic District (a real hit if you have train-loving littles, as I do). I recommend the Spinster Sisters for dinner, and often suggest The Flamingo as a hotel option to stay the night.
