At first, you might not know what to make of a place with a name like Criminal Baking Co & Noshery, but regulars say it's a lot friendlier than it may sound. This Santa Rosa bakery specializes in both sweet and savory snacks, which makes it a popular stop with the morning crowd.

Grab an almond croissant with your morning coffee, or go all out with a sausage, egg and cheese sandwich and an order of home fries. If dessert is more your style, head over to the big glass display case and take a gander at what's on display. You'll likely find a combination of decadent cakes, whimsical cupcakes, and fresh fruit pies — all you need to do is decide which one to choose. Some Yelpers even say the cookies here are so good, they're criminal!
