Live Oak Cafe - Santa Barbara

Had an oat Cappuccino which is more a Latte whole grain pancakes and 2 eggs over easy. Everything was cooked well, caffeine in the expresso just be aware it's not a traditional cappuccino. Scanty on the fruit, maybe 3 or 4 blueberries and a tiny bit of strawberry. Strawberry was not great so just as well. Pancakes were okay but lacked flavor, well actually an unpleasant aftertaste for me. Only ate half. Not sure what the syrup was. Eggs cooked to order. Would try another time with a different choice for meal, there is plenty to choose on the menu. Friendly prompt service, nice atmosphere. I had my meal to go. Plenty of parking. Eating on the patio looked like a nice choice.

We are visiting California on a road trip from England and this was at our first stop. We had a couple of meals and more than a few drinks here over our 2 night stay at Best Western Santa Barbara. First impressions were very friendly, helpful staff which is always a good start. The drinks were very reasonably priced, the margaritas were well made. The food was very tasty and also very reasonably priced. Try the Pacific Rim bacon rice, it is unmissable. Best thing in this restaurant is the staff. They are friendly, attentive to your needs and efficient at serving you. I would stay at Best Western Bath Street again just to visit this restaurant. Thank you guys

Food was good and the atmosphere was nice, but the servers ignored my mother and I. Didn’t come by once to ask if we needed anything else.

Fantastic place, especially for breakfast. Lovely staff and really terrific food. Their orange juice and espresso are especially great. The pancakes are some of the best we have ever had, and the kids meals are a terrific value. Highly recommend and one of the most memorable breakfast spots we have visited. They are also open for lunch and dinner too.

Ya it's the spot. Just had breakfast and it was good. Breakfast burrito was superb. Coffee was delicious as well! Great spot
