Wine Focus
Low-impact producers, strong in French and nearby California bottles, poured in the lounge and sold to go.

Little Saint is a fully plant-based restaurant, café, wine lounge, cocktail bar and music venue in the roughly 10,000-square-foot downtown Healdsburg building that once held Healdsburg SHED. Healdsburg residents Jeff and Laurie Ubben opened it on Earth Day 2022, with Ken Fulk as creative director, as a community gathering place rooted in climate justice, animal welfare and sustainable practice. Produce comes from Little Saint Farm, the Ubbens' eight-acre regenerative farm. That same year The New York Times named it to its annual list of fifty restaurants across the country, and people do drive up to Healdsburg for it. After an early management partnership ended, Little Saint reopened with a more casual, all-day program and a lounge feel, and its director of culinary, Deborah Mullin, describes it as a third place for the town.

Longtime chef Bryan Oliver's menu makes a case for vegetables without asking anyone to give anything up. Mornings bring blue corn tacos filled with tofu scramble, with tall stools at the coffee bar for a quick order; later in the day the kitchen moves to a layered harvest lasagna, a Caesar salad and a burger, all free of animal products. The room has overstuffed sofas, wood coffee tables and long communal tables, and the wine area keeps a large round table for tastings. The wine list spotlights sustainable growers and women and BIPOC vintners, and bottles to take home are 30 percent off, or 35 percent off for four or more. Happy hour runs daily from 3 to 6 and all day on Wednesday, and on Thursday nights free live music plays upstairs from 6 to 9. It is open daily from 8 in the morning until 9 at night.
