    Single Fin was my personal favorite

    Loved the mead and ciders we tried here! Nice staff and comfortable atmosphere. We had a mead each, split a flight, and mixed up some 4 packs to bring home and share with friends.

    What a lovely find this was! While walking around the Funk Zone, we heard some amazing live music coming from High Seas and the neighboring wine place. We wanted to stick around and enjoy the music so we got a mead and a cider and sat on the patio. What a lovely time we had! Everyone working was so kind. My cider was delicious. My husband enjoyed his mead but it's definitely more of an acquired taste. The vibes were just so great. A picture perfect warm winter night on the central coast

    Visiting Santa Barbara, I was thrilled at the opportunity to take my beer drinking husband to a meadery! High Seas Mead opened at 5:00 on Friday and we were there minutes later. Located in a dicey industrial area, I would not have walked here alone at night. But having my favorite 6 ft 2 designated driver along made this a very fun experience. Our bartender Devin was very patient and explained all of the ciders and meads available to try that night. Neither of us was very familiar with mead, although I drink a lot of cider. I tend to enjoy the dry ciders and tried samples of several that were in stock. But I can get cider anywhere ! So of course I ordered a flight of mead. I chose four flavors from six available, all lightly carbonated and dry (to me). Just because it's made of fermented honey doesn't mean it's super sweet. I loved the names of these beverages, super fun and creative! I have to say I'm still torn between the cosmic bandito and the cheap thrills, both had some berry flavor and a bit sweeter. The meadacolada and mystic vibrations were very light. All were packing a decent 7 percent punch. Like a strong beer. But gluten free. Although my husband tasted all, and liked one, I got pretty toasted trying to finish four pours. I accepted a generous offer of sparkling water (apparently no tap or still water flowing that night), and took a trip to their clean and cutely decorated potty before I could finish the flight. I ended up buying four cans to go. Our hotel fridge was small, but we had a whole week left on our vacation and a cooler, so I took them with us when we went to our next beach town. I will be looking for these babies in the store now when I get home to AZ! Bravo High Seas Mead!

    Delicious mead, very friendly people. It opened recently so there aren't a ton of reviews yet. Definitely a hidden gem.

    I like the Las Positas location the best. I've grabbed a breakfast burrito for work lunch here…read morebefore and it was substantial and delicious. The staff is friendly. I bring in my own cup for iced coffee refills and they've even been known to charge me the refill price instead of the full price. It's always clean and well stocked. Oh! Great car wash and if you go to Coast Village, you can pay more for interior service after you drive through.

The Point Market is where it's at!…read more I had come across this awesome little market after receiving a coupon in the mail for a complimentary serving of their 'Bean to Cup' coffee and must say that I was impressed by the overall product. I have come to enjoy The Point's locations as they offer good customer service paired with local products and innovative ideas like their 'Pick 6' craft beverage which is seriously one of the coolest setups I've ever seen. I've glanced at their coffee station but hadn't thought to give it a go. After my first experience, I was instantly sold. The touchscreen machine is very easy to use and you get to watch in awe as the visible beans are ground right before your eyes. There are three different types - I'm partial to the 'El Capitan' roast. The coffee tastes amazing and rivals some of the best out there. Thanks again for turning me onto yet another one of your great innovative ideas, The Point Market. I will be back soon for another cup of El Capitan!

    I recently purchased a lounge set from Cost Plus, and while the experience started with a small…read morehiccup, it ended on such a positive note thanks to the incredible staff. One of the tables appeared to be missing a leg, and one of the chairs we wanted was out of stock in the store. Carolina was so helpful in getting a new chair ordered for us and arranging for the missing table leg. The chair arrived quickly, but the leg took a bit longer, so I reached out again. That's when Jamie, one of the managers, stepped in. She immediately started problem-solving with her GM and came up with a few creative options to get us what we needed as quickly as possible. I really appreciated how proactive and thoughtful she was--she clearly cared about making things right. When we went back to pick up the replacement leg, we realized (after seeing the tables again in-store) that our movers had actually used the wrong leg on one of the tables--so we didn't need a new one after all! Even so, the level of customer service we received throughout the process was outstanding. Carolina and Jamie were both terrific--helpful, patient, and genuinely invested in helping us. It made all the difference. Thank you both!

    Look, we shop at Cost Plus all of the time in Santa Rosa. We love the store. Wanted to share the…read moreexperience we had here in Santa Barbara. We stopped in to get some Christmas ornaments for our family. We picked out quite a few and went to the check out. The young cashier seemed lost. We were having difficulty with the app to check for coupons and from the store in Santa Rosa they would give us a number to text that would log you into their site to check you coupons. We ask the young man and he tells us there is no such number. We tell him we've done it before he again tells us no. We ask him to call or ask a manager who quickly gives him the number. Ok you don't know. Then ask for help. We bought maybe 25 ornaments and the cashier started throwing them all into a bag with no separation or anything wrapped around them. When we asked if he could at least wrap the glass ones he rolled his eyes and begrudgingly wrapped three ornaments. We'll see when we get home how many of the ornaments will still be intact. I love to see young people working but this young man needs someone to train him and observe how he interacts with customers.
