I walked in and sat down. Four people at the bar. Bartender (lady) was talking with another customer. That's fine, no 'welcome', no 'I'll be with you in a moment'. That's fine it is what it is. She continues talking I'm sitting at the bar for about 10 minutes. I start to try and get her attention but it seems her conversation is more important. I decided at this point to leave and instead of a 'have a good evening' I got a dirty look. I got there early compared to the 15 other people I was bringing so I decided that there was no reason to waste there time coming there. We went to Tiburon Tavern instead. It was way better. No point wasting your time going here. I have been here 10-15 time in the past and there has always been an issue.

Friendly little dive bar. Right across the street from handlebar on de la vine. Hence the name! The bartenders are very nice and it only takes a few visits to be seen as a regular. Most of the people there are pretty funny. Pricing is solid and it’s a pretty comfortable place. I’m a big fan of the music and plenty booze free beverages if you’re the DD. This is an unexpected nice gem.

Excellent neighborhood bar. Katie is an awesome bartender. Great prices, friendly patrons. We were only in town for a short time but they made us feel like regulars.

Horrible service. Bartender was extremely rude and we left without a drink.

My favorite place to drink, watch TV, chat, and play the Jukebox! ☺️ Pool table is fun,oh and the bathroom is clean. the owner Mike and every bartender is fantastic at what he or she does; and the beer selection, liquor selection (*Dobel) and drinks are awesomely made! ? Great company

De La Vina lounge is the best dive bar in Santa Barbara . This place has everything: great vibe, big old school energy , and wonderful staff !

This is the friendliest bar I've been to in almost 20 years. All the bartenders are nice, the owners are always around, the regulars are hilarious, and it takes about 2 trips to be treated like a regular. Nothing is overpriced, it's comfortable, the music is always good, and they've got something non-alcoholic for you if you're driving. I feel genuinely blessed to live near this bar.

Best ever. Love this place. Wish i had known of it sooner
Great Bar! Friendly atmosphere, even if you don't drink and have a CRANBERRY JUICE "Thank You" even if you thought a little weird. Recommend to everyone, especially people that are old school and down to earth. Thanks again, Andrew
