Great pastries and sandwiches. We tried the sweet and savory pastries. Prosciutto-Brie + Fig jam puff and Mushroom + goat cheese puff were our favorites. FLAKEY pastry and perfect flavor combinations.

I don't live in the Bay Area anymore, but when I'm in the area in Petaluma I always make a stop at Stellina. Their baked goods are SO good and never disappoint. Their savory and sweet assortment of puffs are all great it's hard to choose. They have some premade salads you can pick up as well and little packaged Italian goodies that make for great gifts or pantry staples. I always love their focaccia. It's more of a pizza on focaccia and a perfect snack to share or meal on the go. The texture of the focaccia is so crispy on the outer edge and airy and chewy on the side. Pure perfection. The space is small inside and can get crowded but there's plenty of seating outside. The team is always welcoming and pleasant and super efficient. Plus for having Linea beans, my favorite coffee roasting co. Can't wait to return.

I love the Gluten Free Coffee Cake. Unfortunately Gluten & Soy is an allergy for me so I have very limited options. They mostly sell out of what I can eat very early since I am also allergic to soy and don’t want a cookie there isn’t any other options. For folks like me I wish they would stock more of the limited options for us to eat. The staff has been great, very small in there.

Stellina Pronto is a slice of heaven! Offerings of delicious sweet and savory goodness. A variety from assorted pastries, cookies, cakes, frittata, sandwiches and more. Today I placed 5 orders to share with friends. Visited numerous times, the only downside I wish we had Stellina Pronto in Walnut Creek!

It's a tight spot but whoa they have amazing baked goods. I got the corned beef and hash pasty. I have never had anything else like it. Of course they have all the yummy sweet treats too. Super cute must see

Always busy here and mostly good stuff but today’s brioche was definitely not the best. Hard on the bottom and dense, tasted like it was a day old at least. Had another pastry weeks ago that also didn’t taste very fresh. Hope these are anomalies.

Anytime I'm in Petaluma, I have to make a stop at Stellina Pronto. It is such a cute, neighborhood bakery that serves beautiful and delicious pastries, salads, sandwiches, and pizzas. It's hard for me to get out of there without committing to a days worth of calories in one sitting, but somehow I manage... It's a tight fit, so you can expect to stand in line in a cramped space for a bit before ordering, but it gives you plenty of time to peruse their gorgeous creations and make up your mind before reaching the counter. I especially love the pistachio cream puff and can't say no to it whenever it's available. It has crunchy pistachio on top and an insane custardy filling that is unreal. They also have a variety of savory pastries that I try to kid myself and say I can eat in addition to my sweets because it's not sugary, but, yeah... My tastebuds are always happy no matter what!
