Bree'osh Bakery Cafe Montecito

The yellow store frount with their kind staff will welcome you with a very nice smile! There is a wonderful breakfast menu and beautiful pastries. There are about 4 to 5 tables outside so if you are looking to dine in with a larger group I would make sure to have plenty of time or plan a picnic near the beach! Perfect place to have morning coffee with a friend.

We tried their breakfast sandwich and it was amazing! Lattes were perfect. The ladies working there are so sweet and attentive. Will come back next time we are in the area.

The brioche is delicious, no doubt. But overall the place was disappointing. The beignets looks’ deceive — supposedly custard filled had less than a tiny dab of filling. Pricing high for what is served. There is no dine in option so all containers are throw-away and cutlery single use plastic. I would not go again.

This place is amazing! I love their Croque Madame and all of their pastries. I do wish that the Monicito location served on plates instead of in togo boxes. That is my only complaint. Otherwise, the staff & food are over the top fabulous!

I asked them to put the honey in the shots of my latte so it wouldn’t go to the bottom and they did it anyways. Now I’m sucking honey through the straw. The worker tried to say honey freezes but it doesn’t when it’s melted properly in the shot. I order this drink often and they did it wrong on purpose. I usually make this at home in LA and it doesn’t ever stick to the bottom of my cup they just didn’t do it correctly.

Good, but i thought it was a bit pricey for what it was. A lot of it just felt like fancy avacado toast. That being said, I did enjoy almost everything I had, although I thought the breakfast sandwich was a little one-dimensional. I would probably go back for the loaded tartine though!

I was on a trip to Santa Barbara with my sister and was staying next door at wonderful hotel. We noticed they had coffee so decided to try. Wow do they have the BEST coffee and tea. We decided to try breakfast and it was EXCELLENT. The pastries are beautiful European, rich in flavor without being really sweet. We went there a few times and sat outside. True European experience without having to get a plane ticket! Look forward to coming back...service was excellent also....gluten free options excellent to!

We are driving up to Paso Robles for our 9 year anniversary and needed coffee asap! We found this little gem and let me tell you the service was amazing and the chocolate croissant was delicious!!! Thank you Bree’Osh you made our morning fantastic!!

The Croissant breakfast sandwiches are the best! Also enjoyed a refreshing matcha latte to start a road trip down to LA. It's a small location with the majority of seating outdoors but it's a perfect spot for a grab-and-go or for a nice morning outdoor patio style dine in option. Service is friendly as well!

Good: staff, ambience Can be better: coffee and baked goods. Got a hot latte and chocolate croissant. The latte was overpriced for the quantity. Too milky, could barely taste the espresso. The chocolate croissant was good but the person at the counter did not offer to warm it up.

On our way to Los Olivos we took a short coffee break and ended up here at Bree'osh. I had been here once before very quickly to grab a cup of coffee but on this stop I took my time to look around and pick delicious baked goods to enjoy with my cold brew. The location is convenient, the coffee shop is cute with some indoor and mostly outdoor seating. My husband and I bought ham and cheese croissant, a brioche almond tart, a cinnamon and sugar brioche morning bun. So many yummy options so hard to choose. We also got coffee and enjoyed a few minute break on their patio. Everything was fresh and delicious. They also have sandwiches, toasts and more. It's a great spot to have breakfast or lunch. Customer service was amazing. Very friendly and helpful staff. Can't wait to come back again and try other things.

Stopped by Bree'Osh for a drink in the morning. The line wasn't too bad and they were relatively quick. Very small cafe that offers a wide variety of breakfast goods, along with different types of drinks. I tried the Iced Matcha Latte and it was refreshing and not sweet at all, but still tasted the matcha flavor.

Totally appreciate restaurants that focus on doing a handful of things really well as opposed to having a dictionary like menu. Bree'osh appears to be one of those places. Comfortable saying this because a friend and I had things off their menu and I liked them all. Parking. If you know the area, then you'll know that if it's busy, which when my friend and I went, wasn't. Street parking. Almost in front. I saw a few lots but I don't know if their free or not. Nor what the restrictions are, if any. It's not really a restaurant in the terms of being seated and be served. Service is still excellent but know that you'll walk in, order then either take it to go, or find outdoor seating. We sat indoors, Counter. Staff was friendly and keeping busy as business was steady from the time we came, and when we left. We split a Brioche Breakfast Sandwich. And I'll say that after I took the first bite, the mix of ingredients just worked for me. And it shocked the hell out of me that I enjoyed it so much not having meat in it. Eggs, cheese, caramelized onions, arugula and their special sauce. We both enjoyed it to the point we plan on coming back but getting a whole sandwich each. We're both piggies like that. This is another place I will be back to either when passing thru the area, or on another weekend getaway.

**February 2024: Sunday Morning Visit** You know a restaurant knows what they're doing when they have a simple item that just tastes bomb. My friend and I love brioche bread and when I saw that this bakery had a brioche sando ($12.50) I was very curious to see how it would fair. My friend and I split everything, but lets just say when I took my first bite I didn't' want to share. First off - I loved everything in the sandwich. Arugula, caramelized onions, soft scrambled eggs, and the bread was buttery, soft and had a nice bounce to it. I would 100% get this again and enjoy the entire order. Two thumbs up!

Always delicious. They're vegan avocado toast is excellent. I wish they had some more vegan baked goods Reuben makes great coffee drinks Some cute take away gift ideas too

Cute small business. We share a grilled cheese, an Artichoke goat cheese brioche, and a Tomato Soup. The food was tasty, however, my expectations were high My friend insisted on stopping there for lunch on our way from LA to Paso Robles, and she talked it up. I was not that impressed. Oh I forgot, I had a cherry chocolate chip cookie that was to die for!!! Super yummy. The service left much to be desired

Mmm délicieux! Bree'osh (great name) is situated along Coast Village Road, a half mile walk from Butterfly Beach. Parking is generally easy, although I'm only here weekdays before 8AM. About a dozen spots out in front, and a dozen more in the surface lot. There are tables outside with bright yellow umbrellas for shade. The inside of the bakery has a couple of counter-high chairs by the window. This location mostly uses takeout containers, so if you're more interested in ambiance and presentation, their De La Vina Street location has more indoor seating and they use tableware for dine-in. Their bread and pastry menu has all the carbs you can dream of. Challah, ciabatta, country loaves, chouquettes, baguettes, cinnamon rolls, Kouign-amanns, croissants, the list goes on. And you can't forget the brioche! You can get a large sourdough brioche loaf, a smaller brioche bun, or special brioche rolls adorned with almonds or sugar. All are heavenly! Occasionally I'll grab a vanilla latte before work, which always comes with the right amount of foam and flavor. And their croissants are flakey, buttery goodness! There's also a good selection of tarts, brioche sandwiches, tartines, and salads. It's a great spot for breakfast or brunch!

Quite possibly.....no.....better yet. ABSOLUTELY the BEST croissant ive ever had! The croissant alone is a perfect 10 but when you add that toasted almond up top it's like "why yes i would love perfection stacked on top of another perfection"

I came here four years ago and have never forgotten the amazing breakfast sandwich I ate on that visit. When I found out I was going to be back in the area, this place was top of my list. Bree'osh for breakfast every day! Thanks to my previous visit I knew exactly what to order: a morning bun and the egg sandwich. Sometimes things don't live up to your memories, but that was not the case here: the food was exactly as delicious as I remembered. The morning bun was slightly sweet and flaky. The sandwich has added greens and onions, but they didn't detect from the scrumptious eggs and bread at all. Why then am I docking a star? I just can't get over the price. $12 for a breakfast sandwich doesn't seem too bad, but the portion was so tiny. Supposedly there were two eggs, but it sure didn't look like it. I felt like I'd eaten a snack, not a meal. On my previous visit you got a side salad which made things feel more substantial, but now it's just a bit of veg on the bun. Add in the pastry, taxes, and tip and we're looking at almost $20 for a snack. A very delicious snack! But not a very filling one. I'll still come by again the next time I'm in town. The food really is that good. But I'll go somewhere else when I'm hungry.

Great little spot for a casual outdoor breakfast in Coast Village. I had the egg and mushrooms breakfast sandwich and my friend had the avocado toast. Both were very fresh, a good blend of savory flavors, and filling. The brioche bun was light and airy. The brewed coffee was nice-smooth not overroasted and full of flavor. This is basically a takeout location- all the food and beverage is provided in disposable containers and you can sit at the small bistro tables on the parking lot deck that has a few sun umbrellas. Cost is pretty average for a takeout place, and cheap for Montecito. So if you want to check out the vibes without emptying your wallet, this is a great option.

Great spot for both sweet and savory baked bites. I got the croissants both chocolate and savory. They were buttery and not too sweet or heavy. Overall, perfect as grab n go options

Stopped here for a coffee while visiting town and it was exactly what I was looking for! Great vanilla latte, friendly service and quick. They have mostly outdoor seating (a small high top bar area inside) and also serve food but I didn't get a chance to try anything. The employee recommended the tartines (like toast) so I plan on trying one next time. Parking was fairly easy with all of the 90 minute parking nearby and the parking lot. Heads up: no restroom (they said the closest one was the gas station) so plan accordingly!

We stopped in Montecito today on our way home from Santa Barbara. Service patio. We will definitely stop by again on our next trip up north.

This bakery has wonderful pastries and especially sourdough bread; however, I stopped buying bread when the price got up to $12 a loaf. Sorry, no matter the quality, I draw a line at $10 for a single loaf of bread.

The food was quite good. Pricey though - $11 for 2 eggs and toast. The restaurant does not have indoor seating and only offers outdoor seating. They do not have a restroom and cannot tell you where you can find a nearby restroom. The staff were nice and friendly. I don't think I'd go out of my way to return but if friends wanted to eat here then I wouldn't veto.

While the sandwiches were delightful, the service was not. The woman behind the counter was not feeling it today. She didn't even bother to smile or welcome us when we entered Bree'osh. Thankfully their sandwiches made up for her not-so-pleasant demeanor. I had the ham and cheese baguette. Yum. The bread was fresh and had a nice bite to it. The arugula complemented the ham and cheese perfectly. My other half had the croque monsieur and he said that it was the best one he's had in a long time. The bread was thick and had a decent amount of ham inside. The arugula side salad was a good size too. The inside was typical of a small cafe; it was clean and organized. Too bad they didn't have a lot of pastries anymore when we stopped by. I gave them a 4 coz of the food, 3 for the service, 3.5 for the value for your money so it averaged a 4 more or less.

Excellent service and great food. Highly recommend and look forward to returning when we pass through Montecito

Delicious breakfast sandwich and avocado toast! Super cute location. Please expand your non-dairy milk offerings to include coconut milk

Came here for breakfast, and the ambiance was relaxing with plenty of outdoor seating. The pastries were so flaky, and it was hard to limit myself to just a few to try. They have more varieties available than what's listed on their menu, based on seasonal ingredients. Today they had a passionfruit brioche and apple turnover that weren't listed on the menu. For their breakfast sandwiches, my partner wanted to try the croissant breakfast sandwich (with a sunny side up egg, swiss cheese and house-made béchamel), with a choice of crimini mushrooms or uncured ham (he opted for both for an additional $2), and I ordered the Breakfast Brioche (Two soft scrambled organic eggs with Emmental cheese, special sauce, caramelized onions & arugula). Everything was delicious, and judging by how many locals are frequenting the bakery, they are not struggling for business. I just felt bad for the employees who have to turn a blind eye to all the people bringing in their dogs to order their food when there are plenty of places to secure your dog right outside.

A nice local bakery with mostly French viennoiserie items and coffee drinks. Just off the 101 frwy, it's a nice place to stop by and grab a morning bun or almond croissant and a latte. Service is friendly and the locals are too.

This place totally made my mother's day awesome. We stopped by here before it was time for church, and I am so glad we did! It's located in the main downtown area of Montecito, marked with yellow umbrellas in the front. The line was out the door but moved quickly. The workers were very sweet and had no issues explaining the pastries they had out. We ended up ordering an iced and hot latte with oat milk, Banana bread, and King's cake. The king's cake was filled with marzipan and layers of flaky pastry. The banana bread was delicious, and was far from dry. I highly recommend getting the iced latte with oat milk. I usually always out sugar in my coffee, but this coffee was so smooth I didnt add any! After you place your order, they bring your drinks out to you so you dont have to wait inside. Sitting outside with a cup of great coffee and a delectable pastry while in Montecito? You really cant beat it. This is gonna be my new brunch spot in Montecito.

Went here when visiting Santa Barbara for a day getaway. The ambience of this small downtown of Santa Barbara is very calm and peaceful. Went here right before the rush hour . Glad that we could secure seats before more people coming in. I ordered salmon smoke tarting, some croissants , and take home a box of variety breads! They are so good and freshly bake! Their tartine is to die for. Too bad they ran out avocado toast when I came , so maybe it's a sign to visit again next time !

Well what can I say? My quick jaunt of a trip to Santa Barbara and my cousins friends recommended this sweet cafe. Located in the hustling downtown strip area close to Montecito is this real lovely and quaint cafe. Everyone was elated with their order as I was. I ordered the Artichoke Tomato Sandwich & Salad , It was Artichoke heart, goat cheese, tomatoes, Kalamata olives. Served on a brioche bun. And let me tell you, it was super. Had sort of a Greek twist to it and I really enjoyed it. The service was awesome. I had mentioned to the folks running it that spoke in Spanish that I did not care for the coffee, and they quickly made me another. So I was really appreciated of their kindness and service. Hands down I would revisit this place in a heartbeat!

Excellent coffee, pretty good pastries. The only drawback is very limited outside sitting. If you did not grab a table and then sent your companion to order, you may be out of luck and take your food and drink elsewhere.

Absolutely delicious and the service was great! A little pretentious but altogether nice

4.75/5 STARS Around April of 2021 when things were just opening up from COVID, I came upon this place and omg I have been craving this place since then! I am such a sucker for french flaky fatty goodness and this place was no different (: We shared * Brioche breakfast sandwich with bacon - fluffy brioche with egg, cheese, and argula. Probably the best combo if you enjoy meat! * Croissant breakfast croissant with both ham and mushrooms - definitely get both ham and mushroom despite the extra cost. They add to the taste for sure with that extra savoriness * Morning bun - similar to a donut but with cinnamon and way more flakiness. Their most popular item for a reason!!! * Hot Lavender Latte - could not taste the lavender very well so would not recommend Street parking was only available and no public restrooms available. Quick counter service and there was plenty of outdoor seating to observe doggos hehe. If I lived close by, I would be here multiple times a week.

Yummy breakfast sandwich. I'll come back to check out the smoked salmon tartine and croque madame.

Delicious baked goods and very friendly staff! Great place to grab a coffee and croissant and enjoy the day!

I've been here numerous times for their Smoked Salmon Tartine! It was amazing as well as the French Toast! Workers are nice and offer good service. They don't have indoor dining, the place is small, so once you order inside the outdoor seating area is available. Santa Barbara weather is usually amazing so it's no problem! Highly recommend!

Super tiny store with outdoor seating. Don't get me wrong the sandwich is pretty good but it's not what I was expected for some reason. Eggs were super soft, buttery and just velvet in your mouth. Super pleasant! I would probably go for the pastries next time just to give it a chance!

We came here and got breakfast to go because the weather just was not conducive to sitting outside. We got two breakfast sandwiches and shared them. The breakfast sandwich on the brioche was a three to me, and I think it's really a matter of taste. The brioche was very good, the eggs were very good, the arugula was a little too spicy and other than that, just wasn't really flavorful. But the other breakfast we got was the breakfast croissant and we only got ham because I'm not a fan of mushrooms. It was unbelievably delicious. And I would have given four and a half rather than a four if I could because that was so good. The service was excellent it would have been really nice to sit outside and people watch as we ate but again the weather sucked which certainly wasn't their fault. The next time we would just get two croissant breakfasts (which again was delicious and flaky and light and everything on them was perfect.)

Came here on a Tuesday morning around 09:30. Parking was abundant and there was no line. Patrons were enjoying their breakfast outdoors. We ordered a croissant, an almond croissant, turkey sandwiches, and ham sandwiches (jambon beurre). The croissants are insanely perfect. On the display, they looked so beautiful and unreal, we had to buy one. The height on those bad boys are next level. So light and flaky and so many buttery layers *chef's kiss* The sandwiches are delicious. Just your typical ham and butter on a French baguette. Personally I really like the baguette but for others it might be too crusty. The turkey one was really good too. There were capers, arugula, and mustard. There is a lot of free parking in front and across from the bakery. They have tables outdoors in this cute patio arrangement. A short walk away is Butterfly Beach, the perfect place to enjoy your breakfast if you don't want to stick around the bakery. Next time, I want to try their other pastries (kouign amann or brioche!!), other French offerings (croquettes monsieur or quiche), and buy a couple of their specialty breads.

A great little bakery in Montecito with wonderful breads, pastries, croissants and a good selection of toasts to please your fancy. I got the avocado toast with egg sunny-side up. Normally it is served on ciabatta bread. It hasn't arrived from their bakery yet so they subbed sourdough. The avocado was served fork crushed under a bed of watermelon radish topped with a lovely sunny egg ready to run sprinkled with crushed pepper. A perfect way to start my day! We also got the smoked salmon tartine. This toast is also normally served on ciabatta bread but was subbed with sourdough spread with a light cream cheese under the smoked salmon topped with cherry tomatoes and capers. Smoked salmon is always delicious if you're into it. Loved it! The mushroom and cheese croissant looked and smelled delicious. Upon cutting into it, the beautiful waft of mushroom and cheese permeated my nose. Mmmm. I should have stolen a bite. Look at the French toast. Isn't it beautiful! The crust on it is marvelous. I mean literally, I could marvel at its beauty. I love bread! My son wouldn't let me have a bite :/ Basking in the morning sun outside on this sunny chilly morning made for a great start. Thanks Bree'osh!

I found this little cafe here on Yelp and this place has great food and service. A perfect place for a solo Sunday brunch.

Bree'osh is great. It's great enough where I'll visit everytime I'm in the area. Food quality, service, and location are all great. Most of the food had the same recurring theme of being light and flakey. *They are very popular so there's a chance some items will be sold out if you arrive too late. I visited at 8:30 and some items were already gone. FOOD Mushroom and Cheese Croissant - the croissant alone is so good. The added mushrooms and cheese make it even more amazing. Smoked salmon and avocado sandwich on brioche - the bun looks a lot heavier than it actually is. It's uniquely light and the sandwich is tasty. A light side salad is also included. Omelette with ham, gruyere, mushrooms - the eggs are light and fluffy... uniquely fluffy. The omelette would've been better if the ham were chopped up and if I had chosen a better cheese. I love gruyere, but maybe not in an omelette. FAVORITES Mushroom and cheese croissant Croissant Cinnamon Roll Eggs - I'd probably opt to add eggs to sandwiches vs getting an omelette. SERVICE Great. Friendly, accommodating, and Efficient PARKING This is a nice area. There's plenty of great parking (free).

Love Bree'osh! Their Buckwheat Ciabatta and Croissants are the best! Keep up the good work

My fiancé and I ordered two breakfast sandwiches, one on brioche and the other on a croissant, and an iced dirty chai. To be direct, the iced chai was probably the worst that we've had. There was zero chai flavor, even after going back up to the counter and asking for more. That was disappointing after spending $8 on it. The food was very good, I favored the croissant over the brioche. The egg and other ingredients all seemed to be of high quality. Though the food was pretty good, I felt overall it was overpriced for what we got. The croissant was the highlight and I would go back just for those items only.

I'm glad I don't live close to this place. I'd be so fat and broke. We were coming back to LA from the Bay Area and decided to stop here for some coffee and pastry. This place was simple awesome. Everything looked and tasted great and service was very friendly.

ABSOLUTELY heavenly!!! My friends and I ordered the eggs and bacon brioche and my goodness, I've never tasted eggs so fluffy and out-of-this-world! It is a bit pricey but I thought the meal was well worth it! The croissant was fluffy but nothing different from what I'm used to. Unfortunately, when we came, it was really packed and a lot of the items were sold out by the time we arrived. The line does move at a decent rate and you can pre-order online as well. There are some tables outside to sit and enjoy your food! Parking- Free street parking. Restrooms- None. Nearest one is at the gas station down the street.

Love this spot!!! Great coffee and great food atmosphere is cozy! Fast service and great for a quick bite and drink!

I read all of the reviews and Bree'osh sounded like a sweet Montecito bakery stop on our first trip to town. It is indeed charming and right on the main street. We lucked out on street parking so it was just a block or so walk. I tried the morning bun - I'm always a sucker for a morning bun - and this one did not disappoint. Great structure outside, rolled in cinnamon and sugar. Soft inside. Great bite and yummy.

Saw the parmeseasn brioche roll only available on the weekends online which brought us to this breakfast spot on a Saturday as we were traveling through Santa Barbara. After ordering we waited a while while others got their food and the server appeared to let us know our order was never placed and asked again what we got. When she returned with the sandwiches she said we were so kind for waiting and she would have just left had she experienced that kind of wait. we opened the sandwiches and realized the Bread offered on the weekend was just a brioche hamburger bun. We were so disappointed and ate it anyway cause we were in hurry but two buns with eggs and bacon were not worth the 50 dollars it cost somehow and the huge letdown that came with it.

When I'm in Santa Barbara, I make it a point to come here because I love this place that much. I come for their breakfast items and was also lucky enough to try their seasonal lemon meringue tart. Their buckwheat ciabatta that the tartines come on is delightfully soft. The bread itself is enough reason to come but Bree'osh offers so much more than that. I have also tried their French toast and kouign amann and both are also good, no surprise there!

Ever since Emily in Paris, I've been craving French pastries. I had high hopes before visiting Bree'osh because of the high ratings on Yelp. We had the breakfast sandwich, the Morning Bun and lavender latte. I thought the breakfast sandwich was good, the brioche was very soft and fragrant, but not $15 good. The morning bun was beautiful and flaky, but it's a bit too dry for me. The lavender latte was ok. The coffee was pretty weak and too light for my taste.

A solid spot on an unsuspecting corner. Years ago this was an amazing burger spot and it is great to see that the concept that took over the place is equally awesome. Currently (8/2021) they are not allowing anyone to sit inside, although it is only a few seats at the window anyway, but their take out option is super efficient and there is plenty of seating on the outdoor patio. Don't miss their croissants or quiche!

Great little brunch spot! Stopped here otw to SB and got the burger and Salmon Trite along with a parmesan bread and ham and cheese croissant. They were all good except maybe the line/wait can be a little long

Service is awful. The people in this shop are rude and unfriendly. You would tell me maybe it was a bad day.... But it happened several times. Would be good to have some manners!
