Chapala St, West Beach

The feature that most stands out for me about Chapala is that it's a nice traffic alternative from State Street. It's smaller, and becomes a one way towards Canon Perdido. A big 24-hour Ralphs is conveniently located on the corner of Carrillo and Chapala, and the transit center bus depot is also located across the street from it.

There is also Underground Hair, which is a good salon I used to go to for many years until my stylist moved location to Cowboys and Angels, which is located on State Street.

Don Q's Billiards is also located there, which is a low-key pool hall open until 2 A.M. most nights. A lot of singles and couples frequent it.

And last but not least, it is home to Lillie's Tacos! It's easily the best taco joint in all of Santa Barbara. A little hole in the wall, you can get the most legit tacos at a whopping $1.35 a piece. I highly recommend going there at least once if you like Mexican food.
