Hi G- Thanks for your feedback. We tried to pull in a lot of conversational pieces that open our minds up to talking about this stage of life, as Grown-Ups and with our Littles. The wallpaper is in the Boobie Lounge which is an oasis for infant feedings, no matter which way it occurs. From breast to bottle, this is the place to embrace!
A coffee shop with treats would be so delightful here next to the bookshop. Maybe with room to sell local artist's prints/work. :-)
YES to the coffee shop in upper village where Coda vacated!
Yes please on a coffee spot in the Upper Village...Good coffee ( some pastries also please) and a gathering place is a much needed enhancement to our charming little enclave. Next to the bookstore would be the perfect spot. :)
also have 2 littles and love this idea! feedback on pricing: families of 4 who can easily afford a $4k initiation probs already have this covered with nannies, etc. For the *rest* of us who could use this and would like to jump on it the fees are a little high to maintain when you take into account what daycare/preschool are already costing us :)
Well, spank me and call me Sally! Where have I been? Loved that yearly sale
As a parent of 2 littles, I actually love this idea. For a kids spot though...they may want to rethink the boob wallpaper.
Hi Robert- Good ideas are subjective. It would be great to hear more feedback that is actionable. Thanks for taking the time to share your opinion though it will be hard to take that into consideration as feedback.
Stupid idea
May Madness, the antique shop, practice rooms and clothing boutique, The Rack, all shut down at the old MAW now MA.
Sadly the shops at the MA have been closed for the last two years. I’m doubtful they’ll reopen, but I hope I’m wrong.
Wouldn’t that be the yearly sale at Music Academy? Or the resale shop at said academy?
All those new shops sound great but not for the individual that seeks vintage. Montecito needs a good thrift shop. I'll be waiting anxiously for that.
Dang. I thought it was Fupeman's secret Fortress of Solitude :(
I'll keep looking for it.
$4.495 million (472 Santa Rosa Lane ) for that kitchen?! With multi-decades-old linoleum? Wow.
I hope Azul Cocina makes it, $30 for enchiladas is a bit steep!
I think I am most excited about the teddys by the sea restaurant coming to the old Mackenzie market location.
I was talking to my next door neighbor who is best friends with the owners of teddys by the sea and several other places that I had no idea like the uptown lounge and brass bird coffee in carpinteria.
He was telling me about the plans the owners have for the new ( Mackenzie market ) location and I can’t wait to get the best fish tacos I have ever tried along with a killer margarita just steps from my house.
I can’t wait for my property value to go up once they open.

Firestone Building, 506 Chapala, on the corner with Haley. Formerly Santa Barbara Business College. Built in 1930. Designed by Fred Whaley.
Totally agree about the lack of signage about the sewage spill. I worked at Fernald Point this morning and almost missed the sign, and I was looking for it. There were contractors working at the house and they had no clue. I ended up informing the owners. . . .
ugh let’s hope not.
i know some of those restaurants are pretty popular, but the behind-the-scenes is a train wreck.
sherry is like georgia tann. it’s all about the image.
This all looks very interesting! A big concern I have is what are the plans for water since we are in a drought prone area? How much more load will this put on poor old Lake Cachuma that got down to 6% one year. Specifically - How much water do you anticipate this development will require per year? I also agree with the comments suggesting more green space for people with pets, grand children etc. Thanks!
RASCAL’S!!!! awesome.
Yes! I thought they should go with Lama Sama.
There may be 35 restos coming but the best quality dining experience and service in SB is at Secret Bao!
Thanks, Erik for sharing about RB SB. Appreciate it.
I will make sure to keep you in the loop for when we expect to be able to open.
