    Chicken buffalo club
    Rosie O.

    First time here and would recommend for a brunch, lunch experience. Great view of sunken gardens and court house. Sit on the deck and it's also great people watching. We came for Santa Barbara's sandwich week and the sandwiches were delicious and filling. Limited beer on tap and wine menu but you can always find something. Service was a little scattered but everyone was super friendly and we were served in decent amount of time. Give it a try when you are downtown. Good for family, friends and couples or alone.

    ABC Omlette with hashbrowns and a biscuit

    We had the best experience at Noe's Cafe! Sitting outside was so relaxing with the perfect breeze, plenty of shade, and a beautiful view of the Santa Barbara Courthouse. We even got to watch several couples get married while we ate. My husband and I got married there too, so it was such a nostalgic and special experience for us. The food was amazing, and the service was exceptional. Brian was so kind and attentive. I ordered the ABC omelette with avocado, bacon, and cheese, plus hash browns and a choice of bread. I tried the biscuit the first day, but we loved it so much that we came back again and I got the cornbread. The cornbread was PERFECT! I couldn't even wait to take a picture before taking a bite. My husband got the Steak Ranchero omelette, and it was loaded with steak, which was perfect since he always looks for high-protein meals. I didn't get a picture because he finished it so quickly! Such a relaxing and delicious way to start the day. We will definitely be back and highly recommend Noe's Cafe!

    Chorizo & eggs

    Great location, dog friendly (they even brought out a water bowl), and good breakfast and service. Patio dining is always a plus. The only thing I didn't care for was the 3% credit card fee. The fee is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.

    Chicken Pesto sandwich with fries and ranch

    Second time eating at Noe's and I'm so happy there is a delicious restaurant right next door to my office! Very friendly staff, consistent food, unique options and super clean! I would give it 5 stars but I have only had one item from their lunch menu and my mom wasn't as excited about her sandwich, plus there was something strange about the ranch dressing that I couldn't quite pin down. Not that it had gone bad, just strange. I got the chicken pesto sandwich with their delicious toasted ciabatta bread arugula lettuce and cheese. This one is my go to! My mom ordered the Monte Cristo and complained to me that it wasn't quite sweet enough but good nonetheless. I recommend you try this place if you are in the area.

    Our new favorite cafe in SB. Great food, great service and the patio dining view of the courthouse is amazing.

    Found this brunch spot near state street and was pleasantly surprised! The outdoor patio faces the courthouse and got to witness a wedding going on. The omelettes were amazing, as well as the eggs bennys and the hollandaise sauce was perfect. We also got the corn bread which was super yummy. Service and staff was great and will definitely come back here when im in SB.

    Monte Cristo today was - it was nice to enjoy on the patio overlooking the beautiful courthouse sunken garden

    Cute place to grab a bite, I loved the chilaquiles and the cornbread. My wife ordered a veggie omelette but the taste was basic. Service is okay just needs more peep. Overall the restaurant was okay. The parking situation is hard to find so good luck.

    Heard the brunch here is awesome! Came for a quick lunch, had chilaquiles and my friend did the burger. Both were yummy - red sauce had great flavor

    The owners of this restaurant are super kind and welcoming! The food was delicious and flavorful, especially the hot sauce. It's also across from the SB courthouse and has such a beautiful view from the patio. Will definitely come back again!

    ABC omelet with "extra crispy hashbrowns"

    Wonderful family atmosphere, with kind and warm service. We watched our host cross the street just to offer to take a photo of a bride and groom across the street at the courthouse. The ABC omelet is awesome. And they actually know what "extra crispy hashbrowns" looks like. Yum! Will definitely return.

    Monte Cristo and most of the breakfast sandwich.
    Lynda G.

    I brought my party of 6 here for breakfast and it was fantastic! Service was prompt, warm, and friendly. We were offered beverage refills and sauces, etc several times. The food was delicious! Items ordered were breakfast burrito, yogurt parfait, monte Cristo sandwich, breakfast sandwich, and steak ranchero with eggs and pancakes. Coffee was good and hot and they had vanilla creamer or half n half. Will definitely return to this place!

Inside the bus itself was super cute and cozy. I feel like I would love to sit in there and drink all day, but I ordered the Strawberry Pink Peppercorn latte with oat milk and was pleasantly surprised! It was sweet with a little hint of fruitiness and a little floral all wrapped in that creamy oat milk texture with espresso that really woke me up. It was refreshing and energizing on a day when it was like 98 million degrees. I would love to come back and try the other offerings the next time I'm in town. Five stars!

It can get pretty crowded during peak brunch time, but it's worth the wait. They offer both indoor and outdoor patio seating. They have an amazing pastry case with their desserts and pastries on display. I was immediately drawn to the gorgeous desserts like the orange, mango guava, limoncello, yogurt berry square cake, yuzu curd with blueberries and coconut, and lemon raspberry tart. These little works of art were not only gorgeous but tasted delicious as well! Their pastries are also a must. I love their Bacon Cheddar Chive Scone! Their Squash Blossom pastry is seasonal, but I hope they bring it back because it is so good. I'm also huge fan of their brunch! Their Blue Crab Crepe is incredible. If you're only going to get one entree for brunch, get this one! It comes with two delicate crepes, the tastiest lemon hollandaise, chives, and lots of crab meat inside! Soo good! The Duck Confit Hash was another winner. It comes with crispy potatoes, hollandaise, pickled fresno chile, cilantro, and poached egg. I enjoyed the Parmesan, sundried tomato, and basil quiche as well! They also offer a Seasonal Handcut Pasta Dish which changes. It's from Aperitivo, and they make such good fresh pasta! The Lemon Spaghetti Pasta I had during my visit was spot on. Definitely worth visiting!

We stopped in on a Saturday for a late brunch/early lunch and were surprised there was no wait.

We ordered the lemon zest brioche French toast, eggs Benedict, and a classic eggs + toast with turkey sausage/patties, along with tea and coffee. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and just really well done. It's owned by a couple (they were even featured in a magazine a few years back), and you can genuinely feel that care and intention in the space--from the atmosphere to the team working there. Nothing feels rushed or impersonal. What really says a lot--we kept coming back every day we were there. It's one of those low-key, slightly hidden gems that ends up being the highlight of your trip.

From the beginning, my husband and I could tell that Serina and Patrick are passionate about their work and want to ensure their clients have the best experience and day possible. Serina and Patrick made themselves available throughout the planning process to answer any questions that we had. They are great personable people and we are beyond happy we worked with them for one of the biggest days of our lives. We went with the braised short ribs and olive chicken for our main entrees as well as a chocolate raspberry cake (baked by Serina) for our wedding cake.
