I've always heard great things about Woodstocks so I had to give it a try! I ordered their Lethal Weapon pizza which came with jalapeños, pepperoni, and sausage on thin crust. I was surprised by their take on how they develop their crust. It's folded over the slice making for an interesting texture profile. Each bite was packed with flavor and the crust was great enough on its own! I'm also a big ranch with pizza guy and their ranch is phenomenal. Big kudos to Woodstocks for absolutely crushing it! read more

Grabbed a slice of Hawaiian and a pint of double IPA. The pizza here is always good and satisfying. I typically share a Kickin- Carnitas pizza with friends. It's always a crowd pleaser. If I have a craving for pizza (and a good selection of beers on tap) in IV, this is where I always go. read more

Not bad, but not great either. Just an okay slice. The dough was crumbly and not fluffy or crispy at all, and the sauce was mellow and sweet. I also thought the slice as a whole was a tad bit underwhelming considering the size and relative price. It was honestly more reminiscent of a Little Caesar's slice, but if I wanted that pizza, I would have just went there. Again, not bad, but not a standout worth going out of your way for. It is located on a college campus, though, so I'd imagine this being a reliable spot for college students. read more

It may be in a college town but probs the best pizzas all around of Santa Barbara that doesn't tastes like it's from a Chain (but they are though). From the wings, salad and pizza-wow soooo goood omg. There's a Costco deal when you get a gift card valued at $100 for $70 and make sure you check in with your phone number for points! On top of that, they have lunch deals for all you can eat and daily specials! The ambiance there is that they drink beers in mugs, uni parents there and students getting a higher education. read more

I think four stars is about right for this place, one of my wife's go-to places when she was at UCSB long ago. Still great pizza and good service, despite it being packed for the U.S. Women's National Team soccer game. (They beat Chile, 5-0, BTW.) Kind of a dive, but perfect for a college town pizzeria. We had the pepperoni--a classic, right?--and a couple of local beers from their rotating tap. read more

Eh. Looking for a place to eat on our road trip, we stopped here based on the reviews, not realizing it was on the state's biggest party school campus in Isla Vista. Which makes sense. You can't spell Woodstock without S T and D. Anyway, the surprisingly not cheap joint is casual, cozy, and fun though a bit janky and outdated. They had 2 TVs on in one room, the one right above me playing Teen Titans with its volume so low I thought I was hearing voices. By the time my pizza was ready I thought Beast Boy had talked me into killing my dog. The big side salad was fine. We were excited they offered tater tots, but they were stale. They didn't taste like tater tots. They were tater nots. My wife's cheese pizza was dry, with the worst pizza crust she's ever had. To combat the dryness, they have free soda refills (with good options) and a generous sauce bar, including free ranch. I actually loved the carnitas on my equally dry slice, but I didn't finish my crust. D'ough! read more

Always hits the spot. Every time I return to SB I always get Woodstock's. Just as good every single time.

Pizza is passable, average quality for above average price. The service was the difference, not in a good way. I walked in with two people in front of me in line to order. 8 minutes later, it was my turn. I was then told it would take more than 35 min to make what I was ordering !!! They just don't want my business. read more

I came in with 40 high school teenagers on a Santa Barbara field trip who were STARVING. I want to give a huge thank you to the team who was on shift their service was amazing, they were patient with us, and the food came out quick. The food was also so good and the kids said they wanted to come back!! Thank you so much Woodstock!!! Definitely would come here again!! Wish I got the employee names :( They also had the World Cup on that helped keep my students entertained :) read more

Really good pizza. Real and good. Straightforward good. Really good. Most of the places to get pizza in SB are specialized and finer dining style with thin crust and refined toppings. Lovely but sometimes you just want a big ol un- picky pizza. Then you come here. This place is busy, fun, unfussy, with lots of college energy. The kind of place you get a big group together, plop down at a table, order pizzas and pitchers and just have a good time. Also good for families, or after a game or hard work to just relax and eat. Or like me this afternoon, on my own, for a "pesto primavera, full of artichokes and pesto smooshed in the pizza crust. Yum! They celebrate veggie eaters, ( " Grateful Veg") and meaty eaters ( " all meat orgy" ), with abundantly full topping pizzas. Lots of diverse choices when design your own too. So satisfying and well, really good. read more

Three times I ordered wildbread! All three times freaking annoyed. First with uber eats, no ranch or marinara. Second direct delivery, asked for ranch and marinara with delivery, got nothing again! Third, went picked up, specifically asked for ranch and marinara with large wild bread with cheese, picked up thinking there's sauce in box and again NOTHING!

(Overall: 57.5% | F) - I do not follow on why Woodstocks is famous because the food here is expensive and low quality. The atmosphere is not very clean and the service was incredibly slow despite it not being busy. The manager was also passive aggressive toward their new employees for messing up their order. (Buffalo Wings: 60% | D) - These wings are incredibly dull and uninspiring -- the spice and salt are one dimensional and the texture is as disappointing as a soggy recycled paper towel. These wings have to be by far some of the most disappointing wings I've had in the last five years. (Honey BBQ Wings: 72.5% | C) - While the flavor of these wings are more reasonable, these are mediocre at best. The most important part of a good wing is complex flavor development that drives the taste, but clearly nothing here is moving. (Garlic Bread: 72.5% | C) - The bread tastes good and is warm and comforting, although rather oily. The biggest disappointment is that the marinara dip it comes with is ice cold like its been just taken out of a freezer. (Tater Tots: 57.5% | F) - Unfortunately forgot a picture, but this dish reminds me of frozen tots, nothing different from reheating a bag myself. In fact, the dip was also ice cold and just overall unpleasant. read more

This place is super tasty, the sauce is perfect, the ingredients are fresh, and the vibe is chill. We had a medium size pizza and a spinach salad and it was perfect. Reminds me of the first time I tried their pie in May of 1990. Still quality! read more

I think it's a local's favorite... Busy and constant foot traffic shows it's well liked. I took the pizza to go so this is based on the pizza alone. I was excited, and my friend that went to UCSB said this is on the spots to go to. When we ate the pizza back at the hotel, it wasn't bad, it was just average... My opinion would have been on the better side had we sat down and chugged a few beers. This is why the 3 stars. The locals may hate this review but I'm just being honest. Let's say I lived in the area, then I would frequent this establishment more of course. Still would give it 3 stars, nothing wrong with a go-to spot around the way. read more

Terrible experience with this place. Called in for delivery of a pizza at 8pm on a Monday. Gal on the phone said it would be 45 minutes. 1 hour and 15 minutes later I called to get delivery status and was given a stupid excuse why it hadn't been delivered yet and it would be another 10 minutes to get it delivered. Pizza arrived 1 hour and 30 minutes after and it was cold. Avoid this place unless you like waiting a ridiculous amount of time to get a cold mediocre pizza. read more

Sorry for the bad picture quality, Woodstock pizza was so good that we had to eat it quickly. The restaurant itself has a fun college vibe inside, the service was very kind as their serves made sure we enjoyed our meal.

Some of my favorite pizza ever!! Several years ago my family and I went to 3 different Woodstock locations in a week while we took a road trip up the California coast. We loved the pizza that much! Fast forward to present day 2021 and we decided to take a little trip from LA to Santa Barbara to see if it was as good as we remembered. Let me tell you, it sure was! I got myself a personal size pepperoni and canadian bacon pizza and each bite was just so heavenly. The crust was fluffy and there was just the right amount of sauce...ugh, I want some more as I'm writing this review! For dessert we got their Cinnabread and it was the sweetest way to end our meal. Their already flavorful crust alongside a generous helping of icing was really so good. Somehow we also ended up being given an extra serving of Cheesy Wildebread? Can't say we complained. We left Woodstock stuffed as ever. The employees were also super friendly and attentive. One of the girls even tried hard to get one of the baskeball games on TV for us during March Madness. The TV was giving her some trouble but she kept at it, so it was much appreciated. Great service and great food! read more

The service and ambiance is why you come here. It's a college spot for a reason. The quality of food isn't worth the price, but again it's a cool spot. You're mostly paying for the experience. We got the buffalo wings which were definitely frozen wings tossed in an okay sauce that had a little kick. The crust of the pizza is not a hit. We got a slice of cheese and the new butter chicken pizza which actually had decent flavor but man that crust blows. read more

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. However, it wasn't necessarily the establishment but rather who works behind the scenes. I just wanted to write this review for an absolute work tank called Erick. I was having a bad day, came in pretty late after Soltopia had ended and right away Erick noticed something wasn't quite alright with me. Couple minutes go by and Erick comes with appetizers as well as a pitcher of Beer, says it's on him and to think of it as a "pick me up." He sits down and asks me what's been going on, I build up the courage to tell him and he's just there, listening, which is really all I needed at the time. Well time goes by and before I knew it I was smiling and laughing, I had temporarily forgotten the reason why I had came in looking so sad. I'm personally a firm believer of it isn't what's in the establishment, but more so WHO's in the establishment which is why I went out of my way to write this. Woodstocks is so lucky to have such a high calibre of an employee working for them! read more
