My mom and I love to walk into this place and choose a six pack of flavored sodas and bags full of saltwater taffy. They have a wide variety of all your favorite treats from childhood, and they let you mix and match sets. I'd definitely recommend this spot for anyone with a sweet tooth.

This outdoor venue is the perfect size for a city like Santa Barbara. It's large enough to accommodate big crowds, but all the seating has a relatively intimate feel when compared to typical music "bowl" type experiences.

Sightseeing

If you have an interest in history and architecture, this is a great spot for you. There are a few parks around it as well, so it's a wonderful spot to set up a picnic. The botanical gardens are up the road, so it's also a fun pit stop on your way to that.

From movies to stand-up comedy to amazing concerts, this is one of my favorite places in Santa Barbara. In the last year alone, I've seen Star Wars, Ron White and Phantogram there. They serve food and alcohol in the theater, too. This old movie palace has been kept in wonderful condition. It's living history! The inside of the theater is designed to look like you're outside, with stars on the ceiling and faux storefronts along the walls, it almost feels like the inside of the Paris in Vegas or the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland. Note: The seats are a little small, so if you're extremely concerned about comfort in that regard, you may want to try a more modern movie theater.

The university is a major component of the Santa Barbara socioeconomic climate. Students often adopt the community as their own, so its influence on the city continues to grow. The campus is beautiful & is worth a brief tour. Many of the parking structures have sightseeing/beach access passes at the ticket machines for visitors. The campus hosts art events. See Pollock Theater, Campbell Hall (Arts & Lectures), IV theater (Magic Lantern, AS Program Board,) Embarcadero Hall (Improvability), If you have an interest in college life, visit Isla Vista. It's a bit dirty; there are almost always people in bathing suits sunbathing & bros in their front holding red cups. It's an experience.

Entertainment & Activities

This movie theater is not a quaint as the Arlington, but the seats are larger and it's a more modern experience overall.
