"First time! Came with a group of 6 , no wait to get sat, food did not take long. Great place! Good food! Solid atmosphere! The owner or manager was kind and helpful. The servers were attentive. The prices are fair and the portions are great. It was a little warm inside but that’s alright."

"Farmer Boy – Santa Barbara Farmer Boy is hands down one of my favorite breakfast spots in Santa Barbara. The food is excellent, the prices are extremely fair, and the service is some of the best I’ve experienced anywhere in town. I’ve been here when it’s packed and when it’s quiet, and the service never slips. Jessica is always pleasant, smiling, attentive, and observant. Robert is everywhere at once in the best way possible — refilling drinks, setting and clearing tables, opening the door for guests, and keeping everything running smoothly without missing a beat. He has such a genuinely pleasant demeanor. When I told him I thought he did a great job, he smiled and said, “Thank you — I do it for you guys!” That pretty much sums up the spirit of this place. And the food? Consistently excellent. I’m very picky about how my eggs are cooked, and I’ve never once had to send them back — they actually understand over medium here, which is rare and much appreciated. If I had one wish, it would be that they were open for dinner. Until then, Farmer Boy remains an absolute go-to for breakfast done right."

"The atmosphere here is amazing! Old school diner, with amazing food. The portions are wat to big, and we loved that! The food is made on the spot and you can feel it ! The service was quick and good. This place is LEGIT!"

"Great breakfast. Nice staff. Makes their pies at 5:00 a.m. so if you want a slice of apple pie for a breakfast dessert, go right ahead."

"I had one of the scrambles with hash browns and took home one of their ENORMOUS cinnamon buns. The food was as good as I expected, but the service is where this place shines. The staff is incredible friendly, but the man who served me could tell I’m not the chatty type and kept the small talk short. I love servers who can read the room better than they read a script, and this team has it figured out. The customers were a blend of folks trying out a new place and locals who have been coming here for years. My visit was an all-around good experience."
