Tons of great ideas gang! So here's another Q I've stumbled upon. Do I rent a car to have with us? I understand SB itself is very easily navigated on foot, or better off on bike. We're staying at the Canary the entire week. I'm guessing we should rent a car for the days we head to places like Cold Spring Tavern, wineries, etc...

Thank you so much for the detailed suggestions! Looking forward to more than one of them! Cheers!

Attending a wedding in Santa Barbara the second week in May and spending an extra week in the area. Could someone please provide tips on things I have to do, or places I have to go while I'm there. I am a foodie who enjoys the entire spectrum of food. I want the intimate side of SB, not the touristy stuff. Thank you for your help!
