Santa Barbara Things
Frequency Wine Company
Mac's friends Nicole & Zac Wasserman (and baby Roz) are the proprietors of this amazing wine brand and tasting room. They've been putting up with the Lopez Family for years now and we definitely hope you visit them too! Enjoy a tasting flight, glass, or a bottle on their gorgeous patio. Make sure to reserve ahead of time!
Loquita Santa Barbara
Nothing but incredible food & cocktails at this place. Tapas style Spanish delights. It's kind of hard to get a reservation so make sure to book ahead! We love the paella, pan con tomate & churros!
Mony's Mexican Food
Amazing street tacos in the Funkzone. Our favorites are: Carne Asada Chicharron Barbacoa Chicken Mole
Test Pilot
An awesome tiki bar with lots of seating & has food trucks if you're feeling snacky. Mac's favorite: THE (POTENTIALLY) SPICY MARGARITA (level 3) Matt's favorite: KEN-TIKI KENTUCKY
Honor Bar
Can't go wrong here! No reservations, so make sure you're not in a rush. This is in Montecito, a short drive from Downtown SB. It's a Hillstone Group restaurant so you know it's delicious and the service is impeccable.
East Beach Tacos and Batting Cages
This is not your average taco shop. They offer a variety of unique tacos (bahn mi, korean style, etc.) but the best part is that while you wait (sometimes an insanely long time), you can use the batting cages to pass the time!
Reunion Kitchen & Drink Santa Barbara
Ocean views, delicious food, solid drinks. We love it here for a casual lunch or dinner!
Rosewood Miramar Beach
If you're feeling super boujee, go here for a drink and enjoy the potential celeb sightings, ocean view, and take a stroll around the property. $$$$
Cal Coast Adventures
Rent E-Bikes and cruise around town. It's our favorite way to see the area, stop to eat & drink, and explore to your hearts content. Do the full day rental- you won't regret it!
Santa Barbara Zoo
A fun way to spend some time with the fam!
Leadbetter Beach
Our favorite beach to relax, walk, swim, eat & drink.
