Calm and clean meditation space with guided meditations with some true experts. However, at $20 per 30-40 minute class, I feel I could get more relaxation and meditation from an hour yoga class.
For vegetarians, pasta is by far the way to go. The uova da raviolo (ravioli filled with ricotta and egg yolk) is really tasty, especially after it runs and makes a sauce.
The Saison is the flagship beer, but the Casper is really nice. Try this new brewery. Open till 8, so come after Odell and New Belgium.
So many varieties of coffees made into a simple pourover coffee. They will add cream and sugar for you and adjust to your preference.
Huge and pricey cheese selection. They do beer and cheese pairings every now and then, but the spots fill up quickly.
My go to lunch here is a half tomato mozzarella sandwich (+ roasted red peppers) with a cup of tomato soup to dip.
One of the best collection of wines in Santa Barbara region, particularly their pinot noirs. Very worth joining the wine club, in my opinion.
So many local beers to try after a full day of wine tasting. Also, live music.
Requires reservations, but you can typically call on your way and score one last minute.
"Free" tasting with the purchase of three bottles of wine. And go see the emus at the end of the lawn during your wine tasting.
Some of the wine bottles, like the Winged Paradise Mountain Syrah, feature art of the wine maker's son who sculpts in marble (art seen in tasting room).
The garlic hummus comes with caramelized onion flatbread. So much better than boring pita.
Baklava croissants are pretty good, as are the jarred jams (like peach rosemary). Overly expensive like you'd expect from a Gjelina bakery.
