We have been serving homegrown wine country fare at the Los Olivos Café since 1995. We make it our priority to choose locally grown, sustainable ingredients, many of which come from our CCOF-certified organic farm less than a mile away. Our award-winning wine menu features over 150 mostly local, California Central Coast wines.

Throughout Los Olivos Café, the walls are filled with works by local artists inspired by the rolling vineyards, golden hills, horses, oak trees, quiet roads, and unmistakable beauty of Los Olivos, the Santa Ynez Valley, and California’s Central Coast. 🐎🌿☀️🤎

Each piece reflects the Valley through a different lens - capturing the light, landscape, and everyday character that make this corner of California so special.

We’re proud to support artists from our own community, and many of the works displayed throughout the Café are available for purchase.

Light, crunchy, and made for dipping- our house made zucchini sticks are a highly anticipated seasonal favorite & back for a limited time!

🌱 🧑‍🌾 🧺 Crisp, golden panko-breaded zucchini sticks, served with house-made ranch, fresh parsley, and shaved parmesan - light, crunchy, and made for dipping.

Just a mile from the Café, our 3-acre CCOF-certified organic farm is the source of much of what we serve. Every dish reflects ingredients full of flavor and guided by the rhythm of California’s Central Coast seasons, moving quickly from harvest to plate.

Hand-stretched, fired, and finished to order - two Café favorites that couldn’t be more different, both available on our lunch, late lunch, and dinner menus.

Spicy Italian salami, red onion, three cheeses, gorgonzola, Café Farm arugula, and reduced balsamic.
Bold heat, deep savory flavor, and a sweet tang that pulls everything together.

One is light, fresh, and herb-driven. The other is bold, spicy, and savory - both coming out of the same oven, both Café favorites 🍕
