A Historic Tavern in the Canyons of Santa Barbara

Tucked into the heavily wooded foothills of California’s Santa Ynez Mountains, Cold Spring Tavern is one of the area’s most historic dining destinations. Located about 15 miles northwest of downtown Santa Barbara on Stagecoach Road, this former real-deal stagecoach stop is a fascinating rustic tavern known for its Old West character, hearty, delicious fare, and secluded, lush mountain setting. Cold Spring Tavern dates back to 1868 when the mountain road between Santa Barbara and the Santa Ynez Valley was an important route for stagecoaches and travelers. The stop offered a place for passengers, drivers, and horses to rest during journeys through the rugged mountain pass.
