It was a feast for the eyes, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for the skill and artistry that went into creating each piece.

The staff at Sign of the Bear deserves special recognition for their exceptional service. From the moment we entered, their warm and friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease. They were knowledgeable about the products and enthusiastically answered all our questions. What stood out, however, was their kindness towards my children. They went above and beyond by surprising them with free glow sticks, which instantly brought smiles to their faces. It's these small gestures of generosity that truly make a shopping experience memorable.

The variety of items available at Sign of the Bear is impressive. From beautifully carved wooden utensils to unique home decor pieces, there is something for everyone.

I was particularly drawn to the wood section, where I found an array of stunning wooden pieces that would make fantastic additions to any home. The craftsmanship was impeccable, and the natural beauty of the wood was allowed to shine through. It was a pleasure exploring the different textures and designs, each telling its own story.

Overall, my experience at Sign of the Bear was delightful. The combination of a charming atmosphere, friendly staff, and an incredible selection of wood items made it a memorable visit. I highly recommend this shop to anyone seeking unique and beautifully crafted items.

Thank you to the staff at Sign of the Bear for their warm hospitality and for creating a truly enjoyable shopping experience. I look forward to visiting again soon!

My husband and I stumbled into this store.. and I'm so glad we did. I've been talking about getting new knives for a least a year as I love to cook, eat, and entertain. The owner was so knowledgeable about knives. I was like a kid in a candy store. She (I wish I remembered her name) pulled out approximately 20 knifes for me to test, hold, and she educated and explained what each knife was specifically used for, which helped me narrow down my selection. We purchased a block set of knifes (Avanta 16 piece set) and a few extra knives. After sending approximately $400. I have no regrets about my purchase. The owner absolutely inspired my purchase. She is passionate about cooking as I am, and I appreciate her excellent customer service and attention to detail. I'll forever be a customer! I cooked the other day, and I was amazed. My new knives are top tier!! Next time I'm in Sonoma, I'll definitely stop by again.

Sign of the Bear is our go-to place to find What I Need for my newly-renovated kitchen! Laura & Steve's team are tops for helping us figure out the perfect items to help in our culinary journey! This must-visit store has great selections of chef's knives, cutting boards, countertop appliances (think coffee makers, mixers, blenders, air fryers, etc.).

When I purchase a knife or an appliance, I want to talk to someone who is very familiar with what differentiates the different styles of tool I'm about to buy. The beauty of Sign of the Bear is the fact the team there are all cooks and foodies - geeks regarding subtleties of the differences that I never would have figured out on my own without hours and hours of research. So, while I do enjoy that kind of research, these guys did save me a slew of time when I needed to grab a roasing pan for the joint our friend from the UK wants to cook for a Sunday Roast! (In the British Isles, the Sunday Roast is a national specialty!) (I got a beautiful stainless steel Hestan roasting pan with integrated rack)

These guys rock! Make the trip and you'll see why!

Love the variety of items. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Jianna was super helpful. Definitely will be back again.

the staff were amazing and treated me with such kindness, I bought some bowls and a few little items! I can’t wait to use them. Super friendly and they make sure you get what you’re looking for! also great prices:))

A kitchen supply wonder with the nicest staff. While it’s always bustling, love checking out their wares and it’s also fun to check out their dish towels with funny sayings….

Great kitchen and gift store with all the regular stuff plus feature lines like lots of olive wood charcuterie pieces.

Best kitchen store ever! Fab selection, unusual items too, very friendly and appreciative staff and crazy good, moderate pricing. Love, love, love this store.

One of my favorite stores in town. A great place to get regular kitchen stuff but there's always cute fun finds at fair prices!

Always a great place to shop, super helpful staff

Wonderful selection, friendly service. They saved the day when I needed a angel food cake pan,to make my trifle!

Always great for high end gifts and houseware!!! Come in!

Great kitchen store with a unique variety of kitchen products. They used to bring in items from local artisans...I don't know how much of that they are still doing. They have dish covers that can be reused to cut down on on use of plastic wrap,aluminum foil & waxed paper& coasters made by same company. They have dishes that have a Wine Country feel & the usual & unusual kitchen gadgets & knives as sets & individual, as well as tablecloths, aprons,& cute dish towels. They have the slabs of Pink Himalayan Salt for cooking and/or serving on....All& all it's a treasure trove of all things kitchen.

When I returned from my trip to CA I was disappointed to discover that the egg cups (so cute-they look like silicone pants) I purchased had not been included in the box! I had display box! to my delight, upon calling the store, they immediately said that they would ship (at their cost)me my missing egg cups. Now that is customer service! Not only had I fallen in love with their store, and purchased items that were sure to become the most used in my kitchen, but I could now smile every time I used them knowing what lovely people had sold them to me:)

I had the pleasure of visiting Sign of the Bear while visiting from Florida. I had the most interesting conversation with Stephen about good kitchen knives. I had a small problem with the knife I purchased and he and Laura quickly corrected the problem. They are the nicest people and it speaks well of the quality of the store. I will be sure to visit them again when in California.

So much great kitchen stuff. I wanted everything.

Amazing selection from everyday items to unique and novelty items. Their customer service goes above and beyond! I always find not only what I'm looking for, but new and useful items as well. Thank you for being here!

Great selection, good prices and friendly staff! We and our friends love that we have such a store in our little town!

On The Plaza in beautiful Sonoma. Wearing my mask and using sanitizer, I made a quick stop. Long time Sonoma staple for small kitchen appliances, pots pans and so much more

My go to kitchenware shop. Love the diverse selection of equipment, plates, kitchen nicknacks and tools. Help and friendly staff, with lots of knowledge, when you have questions or looking for something particularly.
