About Arnoldis Cafe

Say “I do” in a slice of history: our enchanting garden—adorned with romantic white vineyard chairs, dappled sunlight, and the oldest bocce courts between SF and LA (built in 1940)—offers a backdrop no photo can capture. Nestled within a storied landmark that houses Santa Barbara’s oldest bar and one of the city’s longest-running restaurants, we pair timeless charm with modern flair. Our events team is warm, organized, and dedicated to making every celebration effortlessly perfect, while our chef elevates each affair—weddings, birthdays, corporate gatherings, or any special event—with bespoke menus of high-quality, fresh, locally sourced ingredients, hand-chopped and handcrafted for unforgettable flavor.

I had the most amazing experience hosting my wedding at Arnoldi's. I'm an event planner, and after planning many other people's weddings I wanted an easy experience producing mine at a venue with great in house food, rentals, and staff. Sara was incredibly responsive to all of my requests throughout the planning process, and everything was perfect day of, from the food to the service. I recommend Arnoldi's to all of my friends throwing events in SB, and am looking for an excuse to host another event there. Highly recommended!
