Alessia Patisserie is hands down the best bakery in Santa Barbara! The best pastries, breakfast and lunch and the most lovely atmosphere. The service is always welcoming, friendly, and efficient. My boyfriend loves all the pastries and I love that there are delicious gluten free options as well (which is so rare!) I go almost weekly for pastries/coffee and Gabby made me the most beautiful birthday cake. Alessia, Brigitte, and their staff do an amazing job ensuring the quality, food, and experience are top notch. Alessia Patisserie is a MUST and I cannot recommend it enough!
