Santa Barbara Public Market in Santa Barbara

Fun place near the heart of downtown Santa Barbara. It’s clean, has several enticing food options like Thai, Mexican, Vietnamese, pizza, burgers. No crazy long lines which I appreciate! It’s the perfect place if you and your group can’t decide on what type of cuisine you want, you can just each get what you want!!

This place is clean, organized and provides many options for eating all in one place. Could be a great time saver if you’re limited on time but the prices are high. Plenty of seating.

Nice place to eat with multiple restaurants and eateries inside the public market. We enjoyed the Empty Bowl Noodle stand and the Ice Cream stand.

This is my first time visiting this market and I really enjoyed it. If anyone reading this happens to be in the area, I highly recommend giving it a try. And to you, yes you, I wish you all the best and encourage you to stay strong 💪 You have the potential to achieve great things, so never give up! Sending you a big virtual hug 🫂

Love so many choices for eatery. Lack of parking and requires walking from paid public parking

You can never go wrong visiting Santa Barbara Public Market for lunch! There’s literally something for everyone here… pizza, gourmet tacos, Mediterranean and more. One of my personal favorites is Empty Bowl Gourmet Noodle Bar! Their pad see ew is AWESOME!

Had good burrito, taco and some pad Thai from two different stalls. The Mexican place had a long line. Has a taste of the artisan ice cream as well. There’s a bar set up right up the entrance. Good sized outdoor seating. Cute photo op corners inside.Clean and very close to State street.

Great restaurants at the public market to satisfy different tastes. Empty Bowl is great for Thai food. Hangover Noodles and Papaya Salad are excellent among many other dishes. Corazon has very good and fresh Mexican food. The Contra Mar shrimp burrito is awesome.

I was really surprised when I went inside this place. There are many small restaurants to choose from. They have a very nice seating area inside but they also have a nice outside seating area. I definitely want to go back and try the other restaurants. Also each restaurant has their own little seating areas. There are restrooms inside.

The Santa Barbara Public Market has a good range of food options and nice seating outdoors, though it tends to be a little pricey. Four of us ordered from three different places (Shalhoob’s, Wabi Sabi, and Ca’Dario), and all enjoyed our food.
