Santa Barbara Wine Therapy

This place is awesome. We came here with our 3 pugs and had amazing food and a great time. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. The patio is super cool with plants, shade and very original artwork. Inviting for people and pets! If you want great food and drink, especially if you have a furry friend, this is a must see in Santa Barbara!

Came here for happy hour looking for a dog friendly place. We got some great drinks, and the tapas were excellent (riding on a pig might've been our favorite). There's a patio but you have to walk through a hallway, and you order your food at the bar.

I have been here many, many times. I’ve never had a bad experience. I’m always greeted as soon as I enter the door. I bring my dog too so she can enjoy a meal of her own. I would recommend it to anyone to enjoy the casual atmosphere.

Average experience. Expected wine emphasis, it's just a normal bar with games. Nothing special

If there was a NO star, that is what this would be. Peeps go anywhere but here. There are so many more welcoming places in SB. There were 10 people total, we were 4 of the 10. The bartender said she had to take her BREAK while 2 gals were ordering. That left myself and 2 more waiting, until I guess she got back or the other bartender could help. Skeeball is broken, old everything, including the bathrooms. This place is the worst in all of SB, for anyone including dog lovers!

Some dude with a hat on and maybe bawled or short haired physically started to push my husband out of the bar at 12am after making us a drink at 11:45pm. NEVER COMING BACK HERE. I’m am a LOCAL so on their slow days they can forget about it.

Awesome atmosphere! Dog friendly and people friendly! Great games, music and animal videos. Very relaxing. Great Happy hour!

Wine therapy is like almost cool, but epically misses the bar. They have all these games which is fun, but interesting rules. For example, you can’t build with the domino blocks but can with the Jenga blocks. Also you can’t play cards there, you can’t have big groups, and the bartenders want groups to stay for an hour max. The manager seems to be the one enforcing these particular rules, and the bartenders were made to tell them. The staff were honestly kinda giving me weird vibes, and making me feel nervous and uncomfortable. They also made my group of 7 move from one table to another similar size table? Not really sure why, maybe because they wanted the couch for a different customer? I’m not really sure but it felt kinda unnecessary and a little rude. I wish this place was more chill, because they try and present that vibe. Wine therapy has chill outdoorsy decoration, but uptight management that enforcers unclear and uncomfortable rules. I feel like they tried to make a unique and quirky Santa Barbara local spot, but created an upright bar for tourists and cringe millennial men. Also one of the guy bartenders with tattoos and dark hair kinda smells like tuna fish.

Going somewhere else where they actually acknowledge people!!!!!!!

This is really a fun place. Whether you like pool or ping pong or something else, they have it for you. The atmosphere is really fun, feels like a hall full of games and drinks. Such a different vibe from when they were at their old location on state st. I have not had the food, but I will try some the next time i'm in there....One thing that you should really take note of is that their is a space outside between wine therapy and the cruisery...they have firepits and couches...total date place...and its a bit hidden unless you know its there.

Parking: Lots of street parking. Always spots on chapala

I so wanted to love this place. The vibes are amazing and it ostensibly seems like an extremely queer-friendly space. But I've had nothing but negative interactions with the masc staff here (except for one person who is wonderful), and I really felt targeted as a trans-masc person. While the femme staff here are wonderful and I genuinely love the drinks, I don't want to come to a place where the people working there are just straight-up rude. You might have a better time, but I'm not planning on going back there.
