March 2019. We may not be New York or Los Angeles, where plenty of late-night eats are available until the wee hours. We do, however, have a heaping handful of spots in Sonoma County that stay open until 10p.m. — some even later.
Click through the gallery above for all the details.
As always, call ahead if you’re really starving, because late-night eats aren’t always consistent depending on days of the week and different seasons.
