Food Scene

Simply put, The Lark is operating on a different level than everybody else right now in Santa Barbara. It's easy to assume this town would have great dive-y Mexican food or fancy seafood restaurants for pinot-worshipping retirees. But a stunning, new-age restaurant in a former fish market that wouldn't look out of place in the Arts District? Not so much. Smack in the heart of the wine-guzzling Funk Zone, The Lark is so cool it hurts and the pride and joy of Santa Barbara. If The Lark was in LA, it’d be one of the hardest reservations in town. But it’s here, in Santa Barbara, and one of the hardest reservations in town. So plan ahead and go get in on the fun.

Parks & Nature

This trail doesn't necessarily mean you will encounter a rattlesnake! That is just the name of the canyon. One canyon over from Tunnel Trail, this hike is also within 15 minutes of downtown. There is almost always plenty of water in the creek, and the trail is always shady, making this the most popular trail in Santa Barbara. It is also relatively easy compared to just about all the other trails in the area. It is well-maintained, gentle, and there are no mountain bikes allowed. 3.5 miles round trip.
