What a fun place! So many fun people and the atmosphere was super chill. This is a place where you can be yourself and feel at ease. Easier said than done in some places, but you'll have no worries here. I love in all inclusive vibe, and it's in a great location close to the theaters and shops (or what's left of them) on state street. A perfect spot to take a little break from holiday shopping, or just pop in to say hi and make some new friends. crush bar and tap has a very down to earth and welcoming atmosphere. You will not be disappointed and you'll definitely have fun here!

tldr: drag queen bingo, board games, good drinks and good times Came here while I was visiting SB while we were bar hopping. Randomly stumbled into the bar on a Friday night around 8:30 and were surprised with drag queen bingo! It was such a fun surprise - really got everyone competitive so it felt close knit. French 75 (5/5): So refreshing and really well made! Margarita (5/5): Can't go wrong with a classic - good amount of alcoholThe bar is well lit and spacious unlike a lot of other bars I went to. Loved that they had board games like Exploding Kittens, cards, We're Not Really Strangers, and a lot more. They also had free stickers on that bookshelf! It wasn't too loud in there so you can definitely carry on a conversation without struggling. Favorite bar of the night by far!

I was in town for Thanksgiving with my boyfriend’s family. I had a wonderful time at Crush Bar. The bar staff were very attentive and lovely. I’m thrilled that Santa Barbara has a queer bar in city proper. We will be coming back again.

I’ve been visiting friends and family in SB for a decade, and I am so happy there is finally a queer/lgbqt bar in the city! Loved the board games and friendly community atmosphere.

The extremely chill and welcoming atmosphere matches the delicious drinks and food options. Fantastic any day or time of the week. The events are always lively and fun! I know I am taken care of when ever I step into Crush.

Love the spot and that's it's geared toward LGBTQIA. Drinks are ok, a bit pricey. Will take you ~20min to get a drink
