Food
Hanna S.

Ode to an Avocado Toast O Avocado Toast, green hymn of the morning, you arrive on warm focaccia-- still breathing, still alive-- as if the oven itself wished us joy. You are not ordinary. You are an idea brought lovingly from France by Pierre and Nelly, keepers of quiet culinary secrets, now shared generously, right here in our town. Your avocado is ripe with intention, mashed just enough to remember the tree. Across your surface: microgreens like a spring whisper, a dash of radish--sharp, playful, awake. And then the miracle: Piment d'Espelette. That red Basque poetry-- not spicy, not loud, but warm, smoky, gently radiant. A pepper that doesn't shout, it converses. All plant-based. All perfectly balanced. The bread slightly warm, as if it knows it will be loved. Pierre and Nelly--& Juan Carlos in the kitchen how lucky we are to have you.

Breakfast sandwich
Rachel R.

The ambiance of this street is so quaint and poised! The staff was so kind, I overheard a lady come back and asked to have her item warmed a second time because she didn't eat it during her meal and they accommodated, great to see good customer service! Sandwich was sooo great loved the grilled onions. I would get this sandwich all the time if I lived in the area!

Pistachio beighnet

During our stay in Santa Barbara, Bree'osh Bakery was our goto place for breakfast as the food and coffee were great and it was just around the corner from our hotel. Over a few days, the three of us tried a cappuccino, a flat white, a triple-shot iced latte, the croissant sandwich, the brioche sandwich, a pain suisse, a pistachio beignet, a yogurt granola bowl, and the egg & toast plate. We mostly enjoyed everything that we tried. The pastries and the brioche were expertly made and presented. For me, the Greek yogurt they used for the granola bowl was a little too tangy for me, but my husband liked it. Also, my sourdough toast was sliced a little too thin and overly over toasted for my taste, but my husband didn't mind the extra crunch. Overall, we liked Bree'osh because the food and coffee were good, the atmosphere was nice, and the staff were very friendly. We will return whenever we are in the area.

Brioche toast - excellent and not too sweet
Nina M.

Stumbled here for an unexpected weekend lunch while visiting Cottage hospital (it's about a 10 min walk). Their artichoke olive tomato and feta sandwich on the freshest country bread was sooo delightful and gets them the 5 starts in an of itself. My husband had the brioche toast which came with apples, some sort of caramel sauce and crème. It was decadent but not overly sweet. An excellent choice. The only room for improvement would be more comfortable outdoor chairs. I highly recommend this spot for breakfast, lunch, or in between!

Croissant breakfast sandwich
Jennifer S.

Hands down the best avocado toast of my life. Was here for the weekend, and came back a second day to have the avocado toast again, and I still think about it a few weeks later. Pastries were also super delicious, tea and coffee were brewed excellently. Seating areas are great, patio is really cute, great location. Will come back anytime I'm in the area.

Parmesan Role
Jasmin H.

This is my favorite french bakery in Santa Barbara area. The owners are french and use only high end ingredients. My to-go is the Mushroom Croissant sandwich. But this time I tried something different, the Parmesan Role and it was delicious like everything.

Breakfast with my date since 38 years ago !

Just splendid. Clean. Friendly. Affordable. Delicious. Our breakfast was less than$13 each dish. We are from out of town but have know about Bree'osh since they first open the first location. . Will be coming every time I travel around this area. Thank you for the friendly barista. Love the staff that is ready to clean up and help the guests. Oh ... the food, it's fantastic !

Busy cafe. They have a variety of coffee, pastries, and small breakfast items. The coffee was good and the quiche was equally as nice.

Scrambled eggs, bacon and brioche toast. Divine
Lester R.

Still the best breakfast and pastries in town. Specialty coffee and signature French baked goodies. Always the highest quality ingredients and goodies. Pierre keeps coming up with the best French surprises.

Marcelo M.

This bakery is wonderful. The staff is very friendly. I love the smell of fresh baked bread in the morning. The lattes and coffee is perfect. The pastries and food are delicious. We loved the place and quite ambience.

One of my favorite things to do when travelling is definitely visiting different coffee shops,…read moreespecially local favorites. This store is so cool! Like many parts of Santa Barbara, the buildings are steeped in history and reflect the Spanish heritage of the city. I walked in my dog (they're dog friendly!) and went straight to look for the menu. My dog immediately found the bike pump and the snacks they leave for dogs. Service is super nice! They all seem very jovial and cheerful - making it a really nice local vibe. It was great to see the community in the coffee shop. Sadly, the coffee leaves something to be desired. Their menu is pretty standard - you got your flat whites, cappuccinos, lattes - and nothing special or standout from the menu. That's fine - you can still be a standout coffee shop with a standard menu. I ordered two vanilla lattes - one hot, and the other iced with oat milk. Unfortunately, I think my order was misheard as my iced oat latte was missing the vanilla. - Vanilla Latte: Fine. My partner typically orders this everywhere and he said it was fine, but nothing standout. 3/5 - Iced Oat Latte: Already mentioned it was missing the vanilla I asked for, so I'll discuss the other elements. They use a darker roast - thus, making it more susceptible to a bitter taste. That, and I believe an over-extraction or a longer pull made the coffee quite bitter. They also served it in the same cup as the hot coffee. My main issue with this is that I'm a slower coffee drinker, and thus my cup began disintegrating as time passed. Their cups aren't constructed to uphold iced coffee well. 2/5 It was such a prime location nearby the USPS and is sat in a great historic area. Handlebars has great staff, who clearly enjoy their jobs, and have a great community surrounding it. It's sad that their coffee is subpar. Strongly recommend you order your coffee hot, to drink in-store, or just avoid.

The young lady up front was very welcoming and provided amazing service! This place has been so popular on social media and they are known for their matcha specials. If you follow them on instagram they post their daily specials and provide great updates of their inventory and wait times (a genius idea may I add). My personal favorites were the matcha einspanner and their strawberry matcha latte. For mochi donuts I especially enjoyed their lemon blueberry ricotta and brown butter turon specials. Inside they have nice seating and some stools but it gets very busy so the seating area can fill up. They also provide umbrellas if there is a long line and a hot sun outside. I highly recommend this place so be sure to check it out!

Service: While we waited in line outside, Lalo, walked up to all of us offering menus for those of us that didn't have any yet. He was very friendly, energetic and joyful with all of those around. We were able to ordered and be seated pretty quickly, within 10 minutes of entering the line. I think what's unique about their ordering and seating model is that they have you order your food at the register, pay, then take a seat where you like. In my perspective, this allows for a smoother in and out dining experience as you don't have to wait for a server and your bill. Environment: The inside of the restaurant provides a store like experience and as you wait in line you can shop around for custom merch. The outside of this restaurant provides great seating with views of the beach. Food: Our plates were delicious! We ordered some special plates they were offering that weekend. I don't recall the exact names, but my wife ordered a sort of lobster cake plate, and I ordered a type of huevo rancheros. We would definitely return here again!
