Best place to eat for breakfast!
Arrive early to avoid a wait on the weekend. Quick service of breakfast favorites.
💝‼️😁 Excellent food, social atmosphere, fun items like their high-dive Umbrella Drink. So tall from the umbrella the olive can’t see the drink below.
Breakfast was great watching the Pacific, boardwalk, Stearns Pier, and coastal wee we at her.
Not a whole lot to do in Santa Barbara. So this has been a highlight.
