Brophy Bros. is a Santa Barbara institution. It is located in the marina just across from the city college. I never tire of the experience, never find it touristy nor cliched. It just a great way to spend time. The sound bites at Brophy’s are as entertaining, if not more so, than the food. There is not a shread of remorse about that mid-morning, mid-day cocktail. That’s just how things roll here.
This is a long counter and our girl and guy worked it. Both sides bustle, particularly on a stunning day like this where outside and in are equally attractive.
