The Goodbar

This is definitely the coolest hotel bar in the Santa Barbara area. Just off the lobby of the Goodland Hotel, the Goodbar serves creative cocktails in a beautifully designed space. Sit at the bar and watch the bartender concoct your drink, tick into a booth and chat with friends, play pool or head outside to drink under the stars. There is also a surprisingly interesting menu of snacks courtesy of the Outpost, the hotel's restaurant. Pair your mescal cocktail with some roasted shishito peppers or a juicy burger. A great place to hangout even if you're not staying at the hotel. Plenty of free parking, but you might want to take an Uber!
