State Street Promenade
State Street is home to enticing restaurants, outdoor dining, farmers' markets and artisan shops along its 10-block, pedestrian-only walkway. It is the heart of Downtown Santa Barbara and conveniently located a mile away from the Hilton!
Funk Zone
The Funk Zone is a Santa Barbara staple. This district includes boutique breweries, wineries, tasting rooms, cafes, and more. There's a drink for everyone in the Funk Zone!
McConnell's Fine Ice Creams
A must anytime we go to Santa Barbara.
Stearns Wharf
Located at the end of the pier! It is California's oldest working wharf and is home to little clothing and souvenir shops as well as full service restaurants and a tasting room.
Llama Dog Tap Room + Bottle Shop
Where we went to celebrate when we booked our venue! Really neat, casual spot with great food and an awesome selection of craft beer.
Rosewood Miramar Beach
Take a quick 10 minute drive down the coast to the Rosewood Miramar - a Forbes Five-Star Hotel & Spa. With its stunning views and incredible design, its a great place to stop for a drink and take in their oceanfront beach bar.
Old Mission Santa Barbara
For any history buffs out there, Old Mission is one of the most iconic sites in SB. Known as “Queen of the Missions” for its exceptional beauty, the Santa Barbara Mission was founded by the Spanish Franciscans in 1786.
