Renaud's Patisserie Bistro

This is one of my favorite breakfast restaurants in Santa Barbara. Renauds is a patisserie in the old style with American breakfast options, translated. So the American breakfast comes with properly poached eggs and Brioche toast, the quiche crust is proper butter crust, and the baked goods are consistently excellent. 2/3 of seating is outdoors, but web based ordering lowers line levels even at peak hours.Kid-friendliness: Small tables and somewhat close seating makes child maintenance a bit difficult when Harry's is open. Early morning, that space is kid friendly.

Renau's is so delightful; the employees are very friendly and knowledgeable and the establishment is clean and welcoming. The food is delicious and the desserts are delectable. I highly recommend visiting!

What a wonderful little gem of a bakery. They have a very nice outside patio and several tables inside. The menu is perfect for a patisserie. The baked specialities are superb and vary from bear claws to eclairs.The service is on the slow side as they seek perfection in every dish and presentation.The best French patisserie in Santa Barbara.

Eating here is the best thing about staying in Santa Barbara. The quiche is exquisite. Everything I've tried is exquisite. And what coffee. Delicious.

As usual, the restaurant was bustling but definitely worth the wait. The macarons here are truly exceptional and among the best I have ever tried. I went for brunch and the breakfast was incredibly delicious. The iced chai tea was perfectly balanced with just the right amount of chai and sweetness, and the avocado toast was wonderfully crunchy and savory. The Pain Aux Raisins could have used more raisins, but I will definitely try it warmed next time. A must-visit spot in Santa Barbara!
