Wineries with Outdoor Seating in Santa Barbara, CA

7 of the 47 wineries we list in Santa Barbara have outdoor seating.

A winery's map listing rarely distinguishes between a couple of picnic tables on the grass and a landscaped patio or vineyard-view terrace — outdoor seating is either missing from the data or buried in a generic amenities tag. Every winery on this page has outdoor seating confirmed from the winery's own website or photos, not guessed from its general listing.

Check the weather and book early on nice-weather weekends. Outdoor seating at popular wineries fills up fast on sunny afternoons, and some patios are first-come, first-served with little shade, so bring a hat or sunscreen if you plan to settle in.

Good to know

Do wineries have outdoor seating?

Many do, ranging from simple picnic tables to landscaped patios or decks overlooking the vineyard, though the amount and style of seating varies a lot from one winery to the next. Some outdoor areas are reservation-only during busy season while others are open on a first-come basis.

Can you bring a picnic to a winery?

Some wineries welcome outside food and picnics in their outdoor areas, especially ones without an on-site restaurant, while others restrict it to protect their own food sales. It's worth checking a winery's website or calling ahead, since policies vary widely.
