The Shop Brunch

Nice presentation of food. Portions are a bit small (salmon toast). Salty potatoes...overall ok. Kinda pricey

The food here was really good, and I especially loved the outdoor patio; it's such a nice spot to relax and enjoy a meal. My favorite was the avocado toast; it was full of flavor and super satisfying. I did add an egg and bacon, which made it a little pricey. It was pretty quiet when we went, so service was quick and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. My boyfriend and I went last year, so the menu might be a little different now.

Fresh, healthy, and a great vibe. Plenty of seating options if you bring just yourself or a small group. We brought our Frenchie + our baby in a stroller comfortably. They were warmly welcomed as we were. 10/10 recommend for a calm start to your day

Got a flat tire driving back to LA so stopped in while waiting for the shop to fix me up. The servers are super nice and helpful in giving me suggestions for what activities to entertain myself with while I’m here, the music is top tier, the patio is lovely, and the chicken and waffles are absolutely to die for. 10/10 would get a flat tire here again

I went to The Shop Brunch in Santa Barbara last weekend, and honestly, it was a great spot overall. It’s pretty casual—you walk up to the counter, place your order, and then grab a seat wherever you can find one. The first thing I noticed was the vibe—kind of modern, clean, and laid-back. It feels local, not overly touristy. I got there around 10:30 AM on a Saturday, and it was already pretty crowded, so if you don’t like waiting, I’d recommend going early or on a weekday.
