Great coffee
Underrated and less crowded than the Arbor. Apparently they used to have amazing grilled cheese, but I haven't seen them selling grilled cheese since covid. They have some pretty good lunch options. They close earlier than expected, so make sure they're open if you're planning to stop by in the afternoon.
A bit underrated honestly, sure their coffee isn't amazing but it's also a great value, it costs about half of what starbucks charges for their coffee. Inside seating is usually full but outside seating is fine. What I really liked was the breakfast burrito, I'll have to try more of their food menu to make a complete judgement but the burrito was pretty good.
Love seeing all your smiling faces before classes!
Such great stuff!
Best healthy eat on campus. Vegan and vegetarian options, too. Like this lunch bowl with quinoa, arugula, falafel, dates, hazelnuts, tahini. Amazing!!
Literally the worst coffee that I've ever had- BUT- also the most caffeinated! I was literally hallucinating in my lecture in Campbell Hall after a small cup of the light roast. I love the convenience of Coral Tree Café when I need a quick pick-me-up between classes.
Soylent
The best on campus eating spot, such an ignored gem
Good
Great place, polite efficient staff
Good food. Great customer service!
Pretty expensive for what you get
One of my favorite places in UCSB. I have had lunch several times here. My personal favorites are Fish Tacos and Fish&Chips.
The food is outstanding, the portions are great, and it should come out in about 5 minutes. Overall, I will definitely eat here again and the food is very good quality as well as very appetizing!
Burgers are fine. Some rare Pokemon (i.e., Chansey, Squirtle) shows up around.
Pretty Good.
