Reviews by the General Public
A real Pub- not like trashy State Street, 6/14/2009
Reviewer: paul
from Santa Barbara, CA
I used to go to Dargan's occasionally just for beer, but last year I discovered their great food. At other places on State Street, I have had bad food and stale beer, but not at Dargan's. They really care about their food and drink, and the service makes me feel like a regular, even though I am not.

Great live music/atmosphere, good bar food, 12/11/2008
Reviewer: Nicole
from Santa Barbara, CA
First off, please note the title of the review says good "BAR FOOD". As hard as Dargans trieds to be a restaurant, its much better as a pub. The food is just a dollar or two too high but the quality is pretty good. Ironically, it's my friends favorite place to get fish and chips, not the places on the wharf. Go figure! The service is geneally above average, I had one poor waiter who looked like he was 15 and didn't know what was going on. He tried his best but his service was not good, however he was very apologetic and polite and, being a waitress myself, I felt he was genuine in trying to give the best service he could. They often have live music playing and while its loud its also a lot of fun. The decor and lighting is perfect and their side bar with pool tables is excellent. They have games playing but this is more of a place to get a nice cold beer (skip the cocktails) and chat with friends. If you want a club go to Tonic or Q's, this is for a more....mature crowd. Perfect for the recent college grad! Eat at the bar in the "restaurant" side and enjoy the music. The bartenders are just as good at serving food/taking orders as the waitstaff!!

Not the place to go for a good time!, 12/11/2008
Reviewer: Chad
from Santa Barbara, CA
I used to go to this bar regularly on the weekends. New management took over not too long ago and since, they insist on cutting us off or kicking us out every time we start to enjoy ourselves. They apparently don't realize it's a BAR and that people go there for a good time and to let loose. Poorly run, until there is a change of management I will never go back again!

Reviewer: Loni

Another great experience at Dargen's! I finally had a Snakebite(2 actually) Great food, the potato Leek Soup was amazing, as was everyone else's meals.
And thanks to Debbie for hummoring our friend with his crazy accent!

Some delicious items-great beer-comfortable atmosphere
Reviewer: steve
from Santa Barbara, CA
Several good food items you will discover. We really like their potato skins (they use good bacon and cheese on them)-Yummy.(but ask them to serve you 2 portions of the high quality sour cream instead of the not so good ranch dip that also comes with it.) Smithwicks ale seems always fresh and wonderful. Easy to park in the garage right by it...catch a brew(sometimes 2) and a bite...and split. Feels good to be there. Your date will be charmed by the atmosphere if they like a quiet game of pool too.

Fun with Friends
Reviewer: Dolores O'
from Santa Barbara Ca.
Had some friends visiting for a few days. We've been to many Irish Pubs together and we are adding this one to our menu of Restaurants to visit!
Please go visit them, construction has slowed them down a little..
Go have a pint!
