Santa Barbara Public Market

"A gourmet food court and market with something for everyone, with a focus on local farms and artisanal ingredients. Grab a bowl of soup from Empty Bowl Gourmet Noodle Bar, fresh fish from the Fish Market, sample some olive oil at il Fustino Oils and Vinegars, pick up a bottle of wine from the Wine + Beer cellar, fuel up on coffee from Green Star, and finish off with a sweet treat from Rori’s Artisanal Creamery (some say it’s better than McConnell’s?!) or Enjoy Cupcakes." - Amanda Proudfit

"Santa Barbara Public Market is a good option when traveling with a group that can’t agree on what to eat or are in search of multiple options under one roof. With multiple stalls to choose from, try the pad thai from Three Monkeys, a pie from Ca’Dario Pizzeria, a cocktail or one of 30 beers on tap from Cooney’s, or delightful caffeinated drinks from Little Heart Cafecito." - Mona Holmes

"This goldmine of a gourmet market, is comprised of individual artisanal vendors specializing in local and sustainably-sourced fare. This means that it's essentially set up like the perfect pantry: There’s organic produce at Foragers Pantry, the freshest loaves at Crazy Good Bread, and humanely-raised meats at Belcampo. As far as prepared foods go, Flagstone Pantry serves up lunchtime basics like soups, salads, and sandwiches while Empty Bowl is all about steamy noodle bowls and handmade dumplings."
