Shoreline Cafe in California

"I've loved this place for many years. Casual, good food, service always seems great. A real Santa Barbara local feel. Fabulous views, one of the only places around where you can sit out, in the sun or under an umbrella, on the beach with your feet in the sand."

"I absolutely loved eating here! It’s got a great casual atmosphere and you can order drinks, soda or snacks at the window while you wait for your table. There is parking in the paid parking lot and also in front of the restaurant for 90 minutes without fees. We got a table on the sand with a few rocks, separating us from the rest of the beach and got to eat with our toes in the sand truly a great experience. They have small but good menu and the food we ordered was delicious. We had fried calamari starter and then shared the regular fish tacos. They will tell you at the front the dogs are not allowed, but if you insist you can take your dog to the back area as long as they stay on a leash and in the sand by the rocks"

"Beautiful restaurant right at the beach. They got a variety of different items on their menu. There is a different plate of fish special each day. Enjoy your food and drinks right at the beach or on their patio."

"We were in Santa Barbara for a day trip from LA and my companion found this cafe in front of the ocean. It was a really wonderful experience. We had to wait for about 15 minutes for a table outside on the concrete floor, but it was worth it. The food was delicious for the price. But the main thing was the atmosphere, the experience of dining right in front of the water. I can only imagine how beautiful it would be at sunset. Our waitress was very friendly and professional. We had a great time and certainly would be back if we had a chance."

"We walked here from the Harbor and had a fantastic lunch experience. The service was quick and courteous, no wait, and how about that view! Our food was served hot, the flavors popped, and the portions satisfied...and our beers, cold! We sat for awhile as we tossed them back, as the view and entertainment was, well, perfect really. I highly recommend it!"

"What a lovely find! Visited with a friend looking for a beach view on a visit from the Mid-West and Shoreline Beach Cafe delivered! They have a breakfast and lunch menu and you have the option of eating on their patio or beach! They serve Pepsi products and we paid $7 for 2 hours parking, as we didn’t see the free 90 minute parking. Food was prepared quickly, and served warm. Service was good! There is a cute beach seating area with lounge chairs to relax. A really nice hidden gem and you can’t beat the views!"

"I mean, it's a Cafe on the beach. That's pretty much 5 stars on its own. But, the food was amazing! I had the scrambled bacon and egg sandwich and a pancake. The server was great, I asked for one pancake because I heard they were amazing. She went out of her way to ask if I can have just one, they usually come in 3. The sandwich was incredible. And the view was incredible too!, I sat outside and it was absolutely gorgeous. Go here if you are anywhere near!"

"A hidden gem in SB. It's probably the only place in SB where you can dine at a table on the beach. You get an amazing view of the sunset from here. The fish and chips wasn't that good, but I liked their grilled shrimp tacos. But the view alone is worth visiting. There are a few parking spots free for 90 minutes. Can't wait to dine here again soon."
