Coffee Bazaar

About

We have been at the center of Guerneville for over thirty years. We have a passion for serving great coffee along with simple and tasty food.

Story

Coffee Bazaar opened in October 1983. At that time, the space was shared with a video store, book store, art shop, bead store, ice cream stand a tie-dye shop, each having its own booth, hence the reference to a Bazaar. Prior to being used by Coffee Bazaar, the building had been a hardware store, beer hall, and dance hall (not at the same time). The parking lot was once the Guerneville Hotel, a Victorian structure destroyed by fire in the 1960s. The carriage house remains at the rear of the parking lot, now the home of “Studio Blomster”. In 1986, while flood waters were lapping at the front door, Coffee Bazaar remained open, canoes moored on the sidewalk.
Over the years, the café grew, and now shares the space with “Twice Told Books”. Current owners, Richard and John carry on the proud tradition of serving quality coffee and a wide variety of tasty food and ice cream.

Our coffees are freshly roasted each day by Roast Master Chris Goodman, who has eighteen years of roasting experience. Chris, Richard and John can often be found “cupping” new coffees throughout the week. Public tastings are offered every Tuesday and Friday at 2 pm for customers who want to learn more about different coffee origins and roasts.
