Upper State
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in Upper State, Santa Barbara
Upper State sits along the northern stretch of State Street, Santa Barbara's main downtown artery, and its bar scene is more neighborhood-casual than the denser blocks closer to the water. BarFinder counts 15 venues, led by sports bars with wine bars, cocktail bars, and gastropubs rounding things out. Mulligan's Cafe & Bar and Hook'd Bar & Grill keep things casual, while Via Maestra Enoteca adds a proper wine bar. A solid, local stretch of Santa Barbara's main street.
