Harry's Plaza Cafe

For over fifty years, Santa Barbara locals and visitors have enjoyed the unique nostalgic ambiance of Harrys Plaza Cafe in Loreto Plaza. The history of Santa Barbara is proudly displayed on over 1500 photographs that grace the walls of one of Santa Barbaras most popular restaurants. Harry Davis opened the Santa Barbara eatery in 1968 to begin what... would become an enduring tradition of serving American comfort food, beer, wine, and cocktails in an old-time relaxed and comfortable venue. Local restaurateur John Scott purchased the restaurant in 2002 and restored Harrys to its original charm, keeping the restaurant nostalgic and fun. Groups large and small have gathered in Harrys Ranchero Room, perfect for private parties for up to 80 guests. Begin your dining experience with a crisp salad with bleu cheese, ranch, 1000 island, or balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Choose from a selection of hot or cold sandwiches.

Entrées come with soup or choice of salad, French fries, mashed potatoes and gravy, spaghetti, or baked potato (after 5pm), fresh vegetables, salsa, bread and butter, and garnished with an onion ring. Eggs and omelettes are available all day. Add side dishes to your meal of onion rings, meatballs, spaghetti, French fries, baked potato, soup or chowder, coleslaw, garlic bread or sourdough.
