“When I am bicycling through Old Town, I always get a surge of glee when I see that SB Gift Basket is open for walk-up shoppers. I'm sure you can do business with them without ever visiting their charming workshop (which was once a blacksmith operation beore all of us were born.) The atmosphere in this shop is welcoming! They have the world's best parking for bicycles, but those using a car have some additional parking now that Hollister has been redesigned. So don't let parking problems hold you back from a great experience. With OAT bakery across the street, you can have an experience that I find to eclipse the charm of the Funk Zone. More and more, I am enjoying all of the charming businesses in Old Town. And this shop is clearly the most charming of them all.”
“Great prices all the time and good deals on wine's go-to clubbev.com and join their loyalty program for additional savings linked to your phone number, yw and enjoy responsibly.”
“New owners. Prior reviews are not consistent with the stores current status. I stop here every day and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Prices are competitive with any other stores in town. And the selection is top- notch!!!”
“I love this place! The owner takes really good care of regulars like me! They also have fishing bait and firewood! And their ice is only 2 bucks! Definitely a must for a good selection of alcohol and spirits”
“Always a few cents more than the location near the Ralph's which is a bummer. On the plus side the staff here in the afternoons/evenings are friendly. Easy to get a car wash!”
“I stopped in here for on 5/15/2025 at 5:17 PM on my way to a concert. Had a little headache, needed a couple Ibuprofen. They had the little 2 dose travel size, exactly what I needed. More importantly though, the young man at the counter was SUPER nice. He had a little something personal and authentically engaging to say to every single customer he interacted with. Thank you!!!”
“Favorite liquor store in Isla Vista. Great prices and great selection of micro-brewery beers and ales. Way better prices than anywhere in Goleta or Santa Barbara.”
“It is the best experience I have ever had, it is like my second home, because I work here, and everyone who comes to this Liquor Store is treated the same as if they were in their own home, our work is exclusive for everyone regardless of their Religion, Color or Nationality for us, your workers, we make your Day happy.”
