Here at Finch & Fork, we are inspired by the bounty of Santa Barbara's lush farms and rugged coastline. Our attitude is relentlessly local, influenced by the diverse culinary techniques of our neighbors, the subdued, natural colors of our fog-swept cliffs, and the glow of afternoon sunlight on our grapevines. Begin your day with a nourishing brunch or savor an evening of eclectic wines, ingredient-driven cooking, and good company.

    Food is always reliably good here with lots of farmers market touches. The room is comfortable and not noisy so it’s great place to actually spend time talking with friends.

    The menu is great, and everything we ordered was delicious! The service was very good as well. We came with a group to celebrate graduation, and they accommodated our party easily. I would definitely recommend!

    Enjoyed the food, the service, and the ambience very much. Ordered iced tea and it was very bitter, just awful, undrinkable. Our server brought another one and it was just as bad if not worse. So instead I ordered a Diet Coke. It was completely flat but I drank it anyway (for the caffiene). When I told our server it was flat, he was apologetic. I expected to have the Diet Coke taken off the bill, but it was not.
