Book store
Bart's Books, located in Ojai, is a unique open-air bookstore that reflects the town's laid-back vibe. Established in 1964 by Richard Bartinsdale, it started with bookcases along the sidewalk and an honor system for book purchases. With over 13,000 books covering various genres like history, architecture, and food, it's a must-visit spot in Ojai.
Amazing bookstore with a super large selection. It’s almost all outdoor under coverings, and makes for beautiful photo opportunities. I will admit the large selection made it a little difficult to shop intentionally, but if you spent more time here than I did I’m sure you’d be able to find some gold. I would definitely suggest stopping by this unique place if you’re in the area :)

Bart’s Books is one of our favorite places to visit. There’s something special about browsing books in the open air, surrounded by the charm of the space. The books are a bit on the pricey side, but the experience is always worth it. The staff is consistently friendly and helpful, and we enjoy the sense of community here. It’s such a nice way to spend time together.

What a cool concept. Still can't believe it doesn't rain enough to ruin the books. The selection is pretty large but it's easy to find what you're looking for. Very pretty book store, too.

Great place to find your next read! Tons of great books to check out. The selection appears well-curated. Also neat that you can walk by in the evening and there are books outside to be browsed and bought.

Great used bookstore with a picturesque view from the front. They have a great variety of books ranging from nonfiction, to architectural and art books for your coffee table. Highly recommend for the bookworms out there. I didnt find anything for me but I'm sure someone will find something interesting, even if its just a picture.

This place is awesome! They have a wide range of books, super helpful stuff and many options to sit down and read a little. They have old and new books for more than fair prizes and also some first editions (some are even signed). I got a first edition of Anderson's Fairy Tales

Restaurant
Ojai, also known as "the Nest," has been a spiritual retreat since the 1920s. The valley's east-west orientation creates a rare pink moment at sunset, believed to have healing properties. Ojai Rotie offers French-Lebanese rotisserie dishes like spice-laden roast chickens paired with veggies, dips, salads, and grilled flatbread. The restaurant's outdoor seating at picnic tables adds to its charm.
Really delicious food. Rotisserie chicken is tender and exceptionally well. Spiced portions are substantial salads. Picnic sides are delicious. The garlic sauce dip is incredible. Outside seating area is gorgeous. It’s early spring here and the leaves are not yet on the trees, but the canopy provided by the large trees with the lights on wires and trellises it’s just magical. Service sizes are generous, and the prices are very very reasonable.

Ojai Rotie’s rotie chicken was juicy and perfectly seasoned. The half portion was more than enough for one person — really filling. I was looking for something healthy and high in protein since I’m on a diet, and this grilled chicken was such a great choice. We also tried the white bean hummus, which was creamy, nutty, and had a slightly tangy flavor. It came with warm grilled Lebanese bread that paired perfectly. The atmosphere was cozy and rustic, and the Halloween decorations added a lovely orange-toned charm to the space. If you’re looking for something delicious and unique in Ojai, I’d definitely recommend this place.

Food was delicious! Highly recommend their dips and sourdough bread for a delicious meal. Outdoor dining - amazing for a casual or fancy outing. Great to go in a bigger group to split all the menu options in a more buffet style.

Are we in Spain or Ojai?! I love the outdoor seating. From the nourishing, clean, simple meals to the ambiance of the garden patio, Ojai Rotie has it all! This is my wife’s and my go-to spot for an amazing whole chicken dish. The plate with two sides is an incredible deal—we split it all the time! We love the local wine selection, and the Dry Brooks Cider is a must-try. Don’t get me started on the sourdough… all around, 5 stars!!
Dan R — Google review
Really enjoyable meal here. I had the Habibi Lamb Burger on a sourdough bun. Lamb was perfrcty cooked but I felt the harissa overpowered the flavors a little. Coleslaw was amazing. My husband ordered the Tuna sandwich which looked really lovely. Would definitely go back foe the ambience alone. It's a special outdoor dining space. Well worth the visit.

The quality of the food + the vibe + decoration are on point. ( The best!!! First time here in this place. We had other foods before at Ojai but this place will be our number one choice next time we visit Ojai again. We 2 people seated outside under the shade. The area looks so nice. We can’t order too much but I think we select the great dishes. So we ordered: sour dough bread Half chicken with 2 sides + lamb burger Next time we might we Half or whole chicken with Lamb skewered instead. (2 of the potatoes side that come with half chicken tastes better than caramelized cauliflower tho. I might get carrot or something else next time) We are so full and had a great time there.

Super cute spot! Went for breakfast for the first time this week and it was so good we returned for dinner! Classic California vibes with whole, locally grown fare, fresh, healthy and delicious! We had smoothies, lattes, baked goods, tacos and the veggie burger and everything was soooo good. Loved eating in the side yard under the trees, kids and dogs running around. Perfect cafe 100/10

10/10 place to enjoy tasty organic foods! I ordered the matcha mochi with the sweet help of the employees, helping me decide which one to choose based on which was sweeter. so I ended up buying the strawberry rose one too! I regret not buying any of their desserts cause my eyes and mouth were both watering at the sight of them… 🤤🤤

But a oatmeal walnut chocolate chip cookie, I realized it had coconut in it. When I took it back. They tried to tell me there was no coconut. Just had coconut oil and failed to realize how not disclosing that is a huge safety hazard for people who are allergic to coconut even take a place like this would be Michael of that.

My wife and I came here on a Saturday morning around 9 AM and there was barely any line. There was plenty of parking in the free parking lot. We also were able to get a table indoors and eat our meal. My wife ordered the breakfast burrito and it was super good. It even had some zucchini at which I thought was super creative. I ordered the açai bowl without banana and really enjoyed it. It had fresh strawberries and blueberries on it. My wife also had this golden latte and she really enjoyed it. I grabbed a decaf Americano. I really liked this option.

This place has the best vibe. The atmosphere is welcoming, cozy and strikes a balance between feeling like you're at a restaurant and somewhere having a picnic because there's seating outside in the trees if you like. We sat outside but close to the restaurant itself. There is indoor seating. There were many people from all walks of life enjoying lunch when we went. The service was excellent and everyone was friendly and helpful. We ordered the Traditional Burrito which went too fast for me to grab a picture, and also the Farmer's Plate with cashew cheese instead of Jack, and added avocado (for an extra $2). It also came with beans, rice, pico de gallo, pickled cabbage and two corn tortillas on the side. Everything was delicious. We will be back!

Farmer and the Cook has been my first stop when coming to Ojai for over a decade. I love the goat cheese tacos and fresh baked breads / desserts. The smoothies are some of the best ones I’ve ever tasted. Love the atmosphere and consistency here. Cute outdoor garden area with additional seating. Great spot to soak in the vibes.

I had a stout (Tux), which wasn't exactly what I was looking for on a 95deg day, but it was so worth it. It might have been the best stout I've had in a long time. Creamy feeling because of the nitro, and just delicious tasting notes. I should have gotten some to bring home. My partner had a white ale that he enjoyed. Cool space with AC inside and a shaded outside area facing the street.

We ordered the Wagu burger and a papaya salad. Both amazing. They asked if I wanted to spend $3 and upgrade to the tots as a side for the burger. I said yes... I do not regret my decision -best tots I've ever had.

Small quaint museum with “suggested donation” of $5 each. Though it was “suggested”, one would feel pressured to pay when the person asks once you come in, And there wasn’t anyone else in the museum. It was a tiny museum with a small section of the history of Ojai and a special exhibit of architecture.

The restaurant is dog-friendly and features a spacious outdoor patio where you can enjoy dishes like Thai fried calamari, mac and cheese, steak frites, fried chicken, tri tip nachos, St. Louis style ribs, and pulled pork.
We decided to eat dinner before our friend’s band went on. The food was amazing. Ask for more Chimichuri sauce for the steak frites. Bbq platter was delish. Desserts were so good. Flourless chocolate cake, and tiramisu. Dancing area was fun. This place feels like a locals only, hole in the wall. But service was great and the crowd was friendly.

Ojai Deer Lodge is a historical place filled with reminders of the past. We really enjoyed seeing all the antiques and the rustic decor. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. The menu has a variety of items sure to please anyone's palette. We ordered the patty melt, served on sourdough bread, and a generous amount of grilled onions. It was a delight to the taste buds. The side of coleslaw was very flavorful, and the cabbage was very fresh. I highly recommend Ojai Deer Lodge.

This place is super fun. Feels like we are in an old ski town. The vibes are mountain/biker turned hippie rancher. Great selection of local drinks. They bring in some cool indie bands/artists for live music, they also have a pool table out front to enjoy. There usually is a cover to get in on weekends.

The 3 stars is for the food only. We stopped by for lunch on a Sunday. Had 2 bloody Mary’s, tri tip sandwich, nachos, and hush puppies. The food was mediocre at best. Do not order the hush puppies. It was super dry and not good. We sent it back and wasn’t charged, thank you for that. Besides the food, I was happy that it was pet friendly and the outside is really spacious and nice. It’s a cute place just outside of downtown. There were lots of bikers there.

Our first (and only) visit to the Ojai Deer Lodge was for Thanksgiving dinner. To say that it was a disappointment would be an understatement. It was the food. Believe me when I say that it was comparable to the meals served in homeless shelters. Of course, those meals were free of charge; this one was over $200. The saving grace was the service. Our waitress did a terrific job waiting on our table while balancing the needs of the crowd of other diners. Note that there is very limited parking here.

My colleague's and I had a lunch break during our work conference at the Ojai Valley Inn and one of them highly recommended we go to the Ojai Deer Lodge for lunch. It was an excellent suggestion. The lodge is situated right off a main road with parking out front. There was a nice side courtyard with outdoor seating and ample seating in the rustic lodge. We decided to sit outside and enjoy the sun and fresh air. I would highly recommend that. The menu selection of food was very diverse at very reasonable prices. I ordered the wild salmon on wild rice with asparagus. The portion was very of good size and the price- just $26. Overall I would definitely recommend stopping by and checking out the lodge. Although we didn't eat inside I did get a quick tour. There was a small music stage, amazing decor of large antler chandeliers and a bar with a wide range of spirits. I would say it would be fun to come here in the evening. So come check this place out!

Lovely selection of farmers some from right here in the Ojai Valley. One may find, in addition to fresh vegetables and fruits in season, fresh flowers from more than one vendor (the grower from Carpinteria has a great selection. Other vendors offer flowers in addition to other things.); honey, a few meat and poultry sellers (top notch), olive oil, eggs, baked goods - BreadLok from Santa Monica generously drives up to vend at this FM. Their's is a gluten free bakery and oh so wonderful - fav is the olive bread and that lavender dessert cake! Trying the focacia this time. Anticipating greatness. Stepladder creamery comes down from Cambria with excellent cheese. Goat and cow. Grooving on Cabrillo right now (manchego like). There's even a coffee roaster selling beans (not coffee to drink). BTW, it's all open now without capacity limits. Honestly not crowded at all when I went. Masks are still required (writing this review April 2021 while pandemic still in play. Obviously, things may be different in a few months). So grateful to have such a blessed FM.

The Tico salad had only 6 beans, about 5 or 6 pieces of meat and the huge whole leafs of butter lettuce were why the food got 3 stars. I really expected more beans & meat for the price & also think the meat was unflavored. It would be better if they chopped the lettuce even a little as if out on a date there's zero chance of eating that gracefully. It became messy and hard to eat due to the whole leaves. Their Songbird was delicious and the ale my date had was good too according to him. There's no rating spot for the drinks but 5 out of 5 on the drinks at least. This will be a stop in the future when in Ojai looking for a quick drink. The seating area is seat yourself, which is nice, you can choose where you'd like to eat. There's fans above the area and I believe I saw heaters for when the weather is colder. Cute area on the corner faces their main street. Parking on the street is probably easier than in the Plaza they're at as it's rather small for a lot of businesses to share. Clean eatery, nice healthy options, kid friendly environment, give them a try.

Nice place for comfort food. They have approximately 6 beers on tap and very knowledgeable and helpful selecting a beverage. Plenty of wines to choose from by the glass. During the week they closed at 4pm. I just made it before closing. I had the two fish tacos. The fish was perfectly fried. I definitely will return to try a different dish. No indoor/seating. Approximately 20 covered seats when it rain. Fun place to eat.

Great tasting local sourced items. Great tasting food. Good portion sizes. Plenty of seating options. Easy parking right out front. Great location right at the end of the downtown area. Salad was a bit over-dressed for me. I'd probably ask for dressing on the side next time. The staff were attentive and friendly. Quick service during the bustle of the dinner crowd. Drinks are strong with good flavor. Nice kids menu options. Recommend the fish tacos, Oaxacan and pixie juice.

Bad fast food. Stopped here for a light lunch on our way for a 4 day holiday to Paso Robles. That night I came down with a case of food poisoning which I traced back to the Ceasr salad, which potentially was prepared in an unhygienic manner.

They have a great selection of delicious wines (we had a local white form Santa Barbara), and I highly recommend the cheese platter! I also left my hat there and Emma was kind enough to ship back to my house :).

Tipple and Ramble is a neighborhood oasis. It’s quaint and charming with the food and service to match. They have a good wine and cheese selection, and great indoor and outdoor seating options. It’s a gem in Ojai, just a few blocks off the main road. We ended up buying wine and habanero apricot jam to take with us. All around great experience.

Such a beautiful cute little place! The drink menu is not large but they still have a great selection. Empanadas! Yes, they have an empanada menu and we tried every single one. Delicious! They're small. Our party of 6 ordered 2 of each, split in half and enjoyed the variety. Several seating areas. All super cute! Absolutely loved this spot, I'm a fan!

We went there for lunch while we were in Ojai celebrating my daughter's birthday. I was disappointed in the menu. It was mainly expensive charcuterie boards & empanadas. It was more like having a snack than lunch. In our group of 12, 3 don't drink alcohol. There was a sparse amount of non-alcoholic choices that included San Pelegrino sparkling water. I paid $35.00 for a board of snacks. While we waited for or charcuterie boards. The server brought our drinks & didn't know who ordered what. She brought an orange juice drink that apparently was supposed to be a substitute for San Pelegrino. When we asked about the San Pelegrino sparkling water, she brought a different brand of sparkling water to one of person in our party, however 2 of us ordered San Pelegrino. The service was slow. A couple members of our party left to pick up tacos to eat at a wine tasting where we had reservations. We had to take our snacks to go. Tipple and Ramble is a small family business that didn't have the staff to handle the number of customers that arrived that day.

Nestled in the picturesque town of Ojai, Tipple and Ramble is a hidden gem that has quickly become a favorite haunt for wine enthusiasts and foodies alike. The charcuterie board is a masterpiece, boasting a variety of artisanal cheeses, meats, and condiments that complement the wine beautifully. Empanadas. Don't miss their mouthwatering empanadas, bursting with flavor and paired perfectly with dipping sauces. Tipple and Ramble is a must-visit in Ojai, offering an unforgettable blend of wine, charcuterie, and empanadas in a cozy atmosphere. It's the perfect spot for wine enthusiasts and foodies alike.

Beatiful little place to get a drink and a light snack. They have a comfy little outdoors area with seating and self serve water. Not a place to go to fill up, rather a place to sip, munch and let your problems wash away. Dog friendly so bring your pup.

Cafe
Located in Ojai, California, The Dutchess is a unique establishment that serves as an all-day bakery, cafe, and Burmese-Californian restaurant. Founded by restaurateurs Zoe Nathan and Josh Loeb, along with baker Kelsey Brito, this eclectic collaboration offers a diverse menu inspired by the local food scene and the Ojai community. The bakery creates delectable pastries, breads, cookies, and cakes using seasonal ingredients.
Pastries: Loved the samosa (comes with chutney), peach danish, tomato danish Lunch: Loved the Burmese chicken sandwich, kale and chicken salad with peanuts Dinner: Amazing crispy rice salad, chickpea fritters are fun (similar to fried polenta). Good, but nothing to write home about: crispy smashed potato, tea leaf salad (preferred crispy rice), pork noodles (noodles were too mushy), lamb biryani, goat masala, naan.
Tina V — Google review
The food was delicious as a whole but the Motley crew lamb masala was the star of the dinner, it was packed with so much flavor that complemented the tandoori chicken and naan so well. Our cocktails of choice were the Nuevo mundo which was more refreshing and the Free bird with more spicy, both were mezcal based. To end the night we got the falooda that had layers of flavor one under the other as pictured and were good to eat one layer at a time but when you grabbed a spoonful of them all that was when you got a something that can only be described as subtly tart, sweet, and refreshing.It was a very warm ambiance from the bar seating while waiting for a table, to the outdoor seating.

This is a MUST VISIT restaurant if you are in Ojai. We ordered the naan bread, crispy rice salad and pork belly with noodles. So delicious and savory and the ethnic collaboration is just fantastic. Don't miss out on the fact that they also have an amazing breakfast menu available as well! Our server, Gabriel, was fantastic and did a great job highlighting the details of the menu.

We had a lovely time at The Dutchess. The food had some hit and misses. The coconut chicken noodle soup was delicious but the noodles could be chewier, a bit overcooked. The biriyani was delicious in flavoring but would do better with big chunks of lamb verses the minced meat. The rockfish flavor was not as spiced as expected but cooked perfectly. The chicken tikka was very delish and no notes! Great staff, very cool ambience. Worth trying.

Libbey Park in Ojai, CA is a charming spot for families and music lovers alike. The park features a playground for kids and hosts the annual Ojai Music Festival at the amphitheater known as Libbey Bowl. Visitors can enjoy picnics under shady trees in the heart of downtown or attend concerts with comfortable seating and great acoustics.
Libbey Park had an international dance show today. A lot of dance shows were scheduled throughout the day. I liked the park. It is filled with trees and has nice walkways amidst the grass and dedicated areas - small bowl, small stage, fountain, and restrooms. I took 1 picture of a performance and the day's schedule.

It's a cute park with tennis court where some world famous tennis players played. This small town Ojai according to the locals is for weekends. We found it odd that shops did not open until 11 or 12. Some open only Thursday through Sunday. But it was very sunny unlike the gloomy seaside. Traffic must be awful on weekends.

Restaurant
Rory's Place is a culinary venture by sisters Rory and Meave McAuliffe, who share a deep-rooted connection to California. The restaurant showcases their creative approach to open-fire cooking, drawing inspiration from their upbringing in Venice Beach and Santa Monica. Situated in Ojai, the eatery embraces sustainable ingredients and offers a farm-to-table experience.
Lovely, delicious, local and well executed. What more can you say about Rory’s Place in Ojai? Located in central downtown Ojai next to the fabulous restored theater, Rory’s Place is incredibly popular, reservations encouraged. There is a noisy, convivial indoor eating area and a lovely patio. The cocktail list is fun, and the Hello Satan cocktail was so good, I had to have two. We had just flown in from the East Coast to visit family and felt the need for a healthy dinner, and shared a series of vegetarian plates. So. Good. Highly recommend. The kitchen is creative and our waiter was a pro. Go!

Walking in at 5:30pm with a toddler… I cringed inside but hoped for the best. Luckily for me; as I was starving & not the one with children… we were immediately sat on the patio. As I ordered everything that caught my eye. I was incredibly impressed by it all. Nothing was phoned in. Everything is beautifully executed. By the end I was delightfully full. Most time veggie dishes are an afterthought. Yet; at Rory’s they might still the show!!
Ariel W — Google review
The ambiance at Rory’s Place really makes it a standout experience! The service was very nice - our waiter was lovely, but left us for some longer stretches of time so we were there a bit longer than we wanted to be. The food was extremely fresh and well cooked, particularly the Japanese sweet potato - get it if you go! I also got the Hello Satan cocktail which was a mezcal passionfruit situation. Delicious and well balanced, and the rest of their cocktail menu looked equally as thoughtful. My main dish of King Salmon didn’t blow me away given the price, but my partner really enjoyed his hangar steak.
Jane R — Google review
Waited over an hour and a half for a table (we didn't book a reservation) and it was worth every second. The food is phenomenal and the servers are wonderful! We got the market salad, hearth bread, chicken liver pate, hanger steak, and banana cream pie. All were delicious but our favourite was the bread!
Michelle L — Google review
This place is bomb. I did not expect to be writing a review that starts with bread, but OMG their sourdough bread for the cheese and pâté is amazingly fluffy. I could be smothered in this bread and I’d die happy. The cheese plate was one of the best I’ve ever had. I think cheese plates are fine on average but this was next level - every cheese had fresh and nuanced flavor. The carrot dish had such a vast variety of flavors that somehow all worked together (and the burrata in it is freaking lovely). The daily crudo was hamachi and is the only dish that fell flat - but the fennel and the sauce in it were surprisingly delicious. I spent the same amount of money here on dinner that I did at The Dutchess for brunch and this blew The Dutchess out of the water. Make a reservation - we reserved a table for a Saturday at 5:45pm and the place was packed. Well deserved, Rory’s. Keep the flavors coming.

We loved our experience at Rory’s! The service was excellent, shout out to Carrie! All of the food was fresh and delicious. I had the tomato margarita drink and it was exceptional. The salads are really something special, fresh, crispy, thoughtfully assembled. My husband is obsessed with the sweet potatoes. The skirt steak is a MUST. & the pavlova was the perfect balance of sweetness and passionfruit tanginess. I couldn’t recommend dining here more!
Keely R — Google review
Lovely, vibrant spot with delicious food. Service is solid although we never did get a bowl for shells. Some really delicious bites like the tomato salad and grilled oysters. Seafood tower was pretty standard. I was hoping for more from the cocktail sauce or mignonette but the seafood itself was well done. I’m withholding the 5th star because they specifically say Channel Islands seafood on the seafood tower but I don’t think any of it was local. Possibly the bluefin crudo, but that seems unlikely.

The plates are mostly for sharing. Very creative and interesting dishes and flavors. There are no customary types of salads, so keep this in mind. The oysters were great, as was the hanger steak and the tuna tartare.

Italian restaurant
Nocciola is a delightful Italian restaurant located in Ojai, offering a charming and casual dining experience. Situated in a former residence, the restaurant provides indoor and patio seating, with the option to enjoy the famous Ojai sunset from the porch. The menu features classic Italian bistro dishes, including house-made pastas, fresh salads, and expertly prepared proteins such as duck and Berkshire pork chops.
Excellent homemade pastas, olive oil, cocktails and ambiance. We were seated on a chilly night in late November right in front of the fireplace on a 4 top. Our server was attentive and kind, we felt very welcomed with our children and the pastas were delicious. My fish of the day was very nicely cooked but could have used a bit more sauce. Lasagna is legit. The squash ravioli with sage butter was autumn melting in my mouth. The meat pastas were equally incredible. The ricotta cheesecake was a little grainy for my taste. The gelato portion is huge, perfect for sharing. Highly recommend this spot, if I didn’t live so far away I’d definitely come back.

Our first time here, this place has been on our list for over a year and the timing finally lined up for us to check it out. The place is quaint and elegant. Our server, Anthony, was very attentive and had a great recommendation for the roasted beet ravioli. We split a salad, a soup and a pasta which they plated separately for us and did not charge us a split plate fee. I was pleased with each dish. They were pretty spaced out and if we hadn’t needed to catch our movie after, we would have felt more relaxed to stay. All in all it was a lovely experience and we will be back to try the spaghetti!

Used to love this place. Returned after a couple of years. Service was attentive but cold. Food was no longer special. Some dishes were very routine (ravioli, boar pasta), duck sauce was dense and sweet. Salad was fine. Scallops were about the only standout in a good way. Would not necessarily recomment anymore. Did the chef change?

Quick Summary Cool ambiance with the patio seating, especially in the back when you have the backdrop of the Ojai sunset. Food was decent (the highlights were the olive oil and the lamb carpaccio). Plenty of street parking available Food- 4 stars Food was decent but isn't worth going out of your way for Bread with olive oil- the olive oil was very solid and hearty. Really enjoyed it Lamb carpaccio- this was pretty good as well. The only downside is that it wasn't evenly salted (some portions were much more salted than others) Lamb shank- this was good, but the sauce was slightly too sweet. Pork chop- a bit disappointed by the pork chop. Overcooked and way too lean. Not the most enjoyable experience Service- 4 stars Pretty standard, although we did wait a pretty long time between our appetizers and entrees Parking- plenty of street parking Bottom Line Cool ambiance if you're around the Ojai area. Really wished I tried the pasta or ravioli dishes, because was disappointed by the entrees.

Thank you, Charlie, for your excellent service, especially when my mother started explaining the rules of Codenames to you and then went on to explain in detail the clue I had given her in the previous round which was a very specific inside joke referring to her family name, leprechauns, and ghost stories. You are a gem of a person. I enjoyed the buttery Chardonnay and I don’t usually enjoy chards as a general rule. Same with the rosé - not generally my cup of tea, but it was perfect. Pure, unadulterated rosé. Just like the dinosaurs did it. Some of the best bathroom experiences I’ve ever had. Truly splendid. I would go again just to chill in there. Also, using grape vine roots as art is possibly my new favorite thing. I’m all for uplifting nature as art and incorporating organic materials into indoor surroundings. Nailed it.

A nice spot for a casual meal of salad and pizza. The salad dressing was unique and really tasty, while the pizza itself wasn’t particularly special but had a wholesome, healthy flavor. They don’t serve soda, so I tried the kombucha instead, which is locally made in Ojai—and it was surprisingly delicious. The atmosphere inside really captures the local Ojai vibe.

VERY unhappy with the service and food here at Pinyon. My friend and I came in looking forward to dinner since we’ve been wanting to try the food here. We ordered an $18 pizza which ended up costing us over $23 because they include gratuity, and it wasn’t even a full service restaurant! You still have to go to the front to order your own food and pour your own water, other than them bringing us our food I’m confused why tip is automatically included?? Also, probably wouldn’t have tipped much if it were up to me because the host/waitress was AWFUL. She honestly acted like she hated us… and we both sensed it. It was hard to get her attention, and when we asked for ranch she brought us a cup for free but then said they charge for extra? The whole experience felt very off, and the food was below average. I wouldn’t even be leaving this review though if not for the mandatory tipping on top of the awful service. Left a very bad taste in my mouth and will not be returning

Literally kicked someone out of a chair at 9:03 maybe change your hours to 8:30

Outstanding 🤘🏻 Found ourselves in ojai, wanted to check this place out and couldn’t be more impressed I asked for the IPA, awesome 👏, barkeep Fabian steered us towards Just the tip (with spruce notes) and it left me wishing I was a poet capable of expressing myself in text better than my own pathetic limitations. Only a place that knows the art of aromas and notes of wine could produce such a unique blend. And the atmosphere was so damn inviting. People of all kinds kept trickling in, sad we had to go and blessed I got to chat with Fabian a bit about his top 3 recommendations for Japanese whiskey 🥃

Went here for lunch on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. The smells coming from the kitchen were amazing and when the food got to the table our eyes were in heaven. Our server was super friendly and fun to chat with. Not crowded at all on the day we were there so the food came out quick. Oh and the food tasted great. The menu had so many things that interested me that I have to come back to try out some more dishes.

You will not go be disappointed with stopping by and enjoying a cool craft beer and delicious specialty burger at the Ojai Beverage Company. We have been twice since moving to the area and will be back!! I was coerced into the “cheat day” and was not disappointed and neither will you! (see pic - yes it’s huge and no, I didn’t finish it!) Service was top notch and to be commended on accurately describing the nuances of the craft beer options we each chose. Craft beer selection options are plentiful amazing as well!!

It is a very unexpected sweet place to have yummy desserts and truffle fries while shopping for bottles of wine for a family party. We had only planned to shop, but the charming staff and adorable atmosphere had us sitting at the table and ordering snacks.

Move over, Ojai food scene—Conrad, the reigning general manager and register wizard, wasn’t kidding. This spot isn’t just #1 rated; it’s Ojai’s best-kept culinary secret, hidden in plain sight! The meats? Succulent masterpieces of flavor. The drink selection? A dazzling spectrum, featuring even the elusive Ramune soda for the kiddos (because fizzy fun knows no age limits). And the staff? Long-term legends, serving up both deliciousness and charm with a side of friendly banter. Five stars? Pfft, give them the whole galaxy!

Topa Mountain Winery is a renowned winery located in Ojai, near Santa Barbara, offering an extensive selection of wines including reds, whites, and sparkling varieties. The winery's picturesque setting amidst beautiful buildings, gardens, and surrounding mountains makes it a perfect spot to catch the sunset. Visitors can enjoy live music and food trucks on weekends while savoring the friendly service from the staff.
The most noticeable thing about Topa is the aesthetics - beautiful building, interiors, gardens, and even the surrounding mountains. Would recommend catching the sunset from here. They have a decent wine collection; we could not taste the different wines, but had the rose and it was incredible. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. On weekends, they have live music and food trucks. Would highly recommend this place if you're visiting Ojai.

We loved our stop here on the way to LA. The premises are so nice and well maintained and the servers were very attentive and friendly. I also really appreciated that we could bring our own food which we did. Having that option really enhanced our experience since some of the group wanted to have some wine and some did not so we were not forced into a full scale wine tasting. I also loved that the different wine varieties were labelled accordingly.

As Santa Barbara wedding photographers, Ojai is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from us and we LOVE photographing weddings at Topa Mountain Winery. This venue has it all, we love the epic views at sunset when the Topa Topa Mountains turn their signature pink, the ceremony spot in the vineyards, and the reception area just a few steps away. Topa Mountain Winery has so many incredible spots for photos on a wedding day, including a brand new mural! This was the perfect backdrop for the bohemian and neon elements of Jasmine and Tyler’s wedding. Although the mural was just painted a week before their wedding, it complimented their day perfectly and felt like the inspiration for the feel of the day.

I want to like this place alot since it's a great location, I'll be back to try the other wine tasting. I always go for reds, but personally did not enjoy them. The host and my server barely tried, (almost got a snobby reflection) would have liked to know more about the wines etc. But certain styles of "flights" you don't get this opportunity, especially when all the wine pours come out on a baking sheet. Like I say though wonderful and manicured grounds, worth it for that! And right off the main road in Ojai.

Picturesque winery in downtown Ojai nestled below the mountain views, pretty atmosphere. The wines in the tasting were okay, nothing blew my socks off but the service was great and we didn't get the full experience due to some restrictions with Covid19.

Fine dining restaurant
Nestled in the heart of Ojai, The Ranch House is a culinary gem that has been delighting diners since 1950. Founded by the visionary chef Alan Hooker, this restaurant initially focused on vegetarian fare, showcasing the region's fresh produce sourced from his own garden and local farmers. Over time, it evolved to include meat and seafood while maintaining its commitment to quality ingredients. Guests can enjoy a delightful dining experience in a picturesque outdoor setting that enhances the charm of their meal.
I had a wonderful experience at the newly reopened Ranch House. The prix fixe menu was new to me, but it turned out to be a delightful surprise. Chef Rocher delivered a performance that engaged all the senses, combining beautiful presentation, complex flavors, and high-quality ingredients—many of them locally sourced. The servers were very informative! Each dish was a pleasure, and I found myself eagerly anticipating the next. You can feel confident that whatever is on the menu for the day will be excellent. I’m already looking forward to discovering more surprises on my next visit.

If you're in Ojai and craving a delicious Mexican meal, Agave Maria's Restaurant & Cantina is the place to be. Known for its enormous burritos that are almost too big to finish, this eatery offers much more than just hefty portions.

I was in the area and decided to stop at Agave Maria for an early dinner. They have a large patio and it was quite warm out but the patio felt nice as there are many umbrellas for shade. We tried the guacamole and chips which were good. The guacamole definitely has a strong lime flavor but it was tasty. They give you a generous portion of salsa and chips upon arrival as well. The chips were nice and fresh and crispy. The service was quick and the food came out right away and was hot and fresh. We had the chicken mole which was very good. I wasn’t fond of the rice as it was a little flavorless for my liking. We also had the queso Birria tacos which were very good along with the consommé. I thought it was a bit pricey but they definitely give you nice portion sizes. The wait staff was very friendly.

I can't tell you how long I've been coming to this particular restaurant. Since before It was called Agave Maria's, in The Times when songstresses would get on the balcony across the street at the play house and sing to us, when it was called Tony's. Long ago, when they used to have jazz on weekends and the strawberry margaritas were enough to drive all the way from camaro. I can tell you with complete honesty and over 10 years of coming to this particular location that the wet burritos with red and green sauce are 100% the best burritos in at least a 75 mile radius.

Located next to the ice cream parlor, indulge in a honey sampling at Heavenly Honey Company which utilizes locally sourced bees to offer an authentic taste of Ojai flavors! The establishment boasts excellent customer service, exceptional cleanliness, a trendy atmosphere, and incredibly delectable ice cream. While there have been some grievances in the past, it's important to note that the shop is now under new ownership and unlikely to disappoint.
The coolest spot in Ojai. 🍦 A true Ojai staple—hip, but deservedly so. They offer a great mix of classic and experimental flavors, including Ojai Orange, Banana Brownie, Lavender, Matcha, Birthday Cake, and Mint Oreo, to name a few. What I love most? Not overly sweet, so you can bring your little one without fearing a full-blown sugar rush. Like any good ice cream shop, you can sample before deciding—always a plus. Beyond scoops, they also sell pints to take home, candy, and merch. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this place is worth the stop.

The Espresso Oreo flavor is a home run. The Rainbow Sherbet took me back to childhood. Staff was friendly and efficient, letting us try 7 different flavors. Yum yum yum yum yum. Prices are actually reasonable - $5 for a kids size which is a giant scoop. I feel like this is $6-7 in LA. I recommend this place!

The single scoops are way too small and not worth the $6.25 price. My kids and their friends asked for two flavors on a single scoop and each of those scoops was bigger than my one-flavor single.

Ojai Tortilla House is a small shop located just off the main street in Ojai, CA. Despite the potential wait for their tacos, burritos, and quesadillas, visitors are encouraged to make the sacrifice. The shop closes at 3pm or earlier if they run out of ingredients. Guests can enjoy their food at the nearby park. The fresh tortillas have received praise from customers who also appreciated the reasonable prices.

Don S — Google review
We were in Ojai because my son was taking a test at a near by school. We were walking around town and walked by the Tortilla house, they were closed so we went into a near by business. When we came out not only was the Tortilla House open but there was a lone down the block. I inquired from a few people in line what all the fuss was about. I was very mature of factly told that this was the best burrito, not only in town, but possibly the best burrito on the west coast. Now I love a good burrito and I feel I've had many near perfect burritos so I just had to eat here and put it to the test. I waited for my son to be done with his test, as he fancies himself a connoisseur of the bean and cheese burrito. I picked him up and we headed to The Tortilla House immediately. We waited in line, looked at the very simple menu, which is very refreshing, to me that says this is what they specialize in and the have perfected it and have no need for filler items on the menu. Burritos, taco, quesadillas, that's it, you choose your meat and toppings but you're only getting one of these three items. While we waited patiently and with growing anticipation in line, I noticed that there was a woman in the back hand making the tortillas as they were ordered. To say I was excited is an understatement. I ordered the al pastor with beans, rice, and cheese. The ingredients were obviously cooked that day, probably as I passed by earlier while they were closed, everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. The beans and rice tasted like my grandma used to make, they were homemade ingredients in a tiny shop and they were wonderful. The tortilla was a work of art, rolled out and cooked with knowledge that only comes from true love of your craft. I cannot express how incredibly impressed I was, how happy this burrito made my palate, how exquisite the flavors blended together. I cannot say it was the best burrito I have ever had, but it sure was close.

Healthy, beautiful, fresh and unusual offerings. Funny to call food beautiful but it’s the only way to describe the visual appeal. I tried several things. A few things i couldn’t eat because of allergies. But there were plenty of other things available to feasted on. The gluten free donuts are a must have so fresh, slightly dense and just the right amount of sweet and the flat pastry topped with various veggies was something that I will crave and drive two hours back for! and i do not even like donuts .

Sadly the servers really let this place down. We had high expectations when we saw how pretty the place was, but it seemed the servers really did not care at all about the customers or the business. They came across as rude and apathetic and gave the impression that it was a huge imposition to have to serve us. I felt pretty uncomfortable. On the upside, the wine we had was good and the setting had a great ambiance. I'm sad for the business owner that their employees appear to have no passion for their work or care for the business. I wouldn't go back for this reason.

I'm a larger bodied woman of color, and felt really comfortable at this down to earth spa. The massage was genuinely one of the best I've had and exactly what I wanted. The facial was quite nice and the esthetician was lovely. The lobby is not the fanciest, and the chairs could be updated as they really swallow you, but I will for sure return to this spa on future trips.

This was by far the best massages we've had in a while. My husband had Kay and raved about his experience. She really cared about what was bothering him and made sure to target those areas with therapeutic massage and made him feel so much better. We've had massages all over the country, and this one was by far the best!

We (my BAE and I) decided to go to Ojai for a date night and went to The Day Spa of Ojai. We were pleasantly surprised that it was a wonderful experience. The facility was clean and very comfortable. We were greeted warmly as we completed the standard massage questionnaire. Both therapist did something unique, which was brushing our skin first, which was an added touch. My therapist had good techniques and the pressure was just right!. We will definitely return and refer our friends 🙂

Amazing. Both Kim, Caroline and the entire staff were welcoming, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. The facial and massage were best experience I've ever had at a spa. This spa has a smaller, homier, cozier atmosphere. There is no pool or sauna if you like those kind of amenities at a spa. But everything, everything else is so wonderful you don't need those other things

I had a lovely time today at the The Day Spa at Ojai. The waiting room is cozy, with tea and water available. The whole place has a great vibe, friendly, the staff very attentive. The massage room was so comfortable, the warm massage table a comfortable temperature. Shannon was my therapist, and the massage she gave was excellent, leaving my whole body extremely relaxed. She addressed an issue I was having, and helped to make it feel better. She also took a few minutes to give me advice on how to loosen the area at home. She was so skilled, professional and thorough. I’ll definitely be back when in Ojai.

Italian restaurant
Nestled in the heart of Ojai, California, Osteria Monte Grappa is a charming Italian restaurant that captures the essence of Northern Italy with its rustic menu. This delightful eatery prides itself on using local and seasonal ingredients to create mouthwatering seafood dishes and homemade pasta like pappardelle, ravioli, and agnolotti. If you're seeking an authentic Italian dining experience in downtown Ojai, this cozy spot is a must-visit.
This place is great. The quality of food is awesome, like always. The taste is superb, and the atmosphere is cozy. Too bad this place is closing..

We talked to some locals and they recommended this spot and OMG… so good! We walked in around 6pm and were able to get two seats at the bar. Everything that was coming out looked so good. We ended up getting the insalata zarina, Pizza del bob, and Ezzelina. My favorite was the Pizza del bob but my friend lovedddd the Ezzelina. The insalata zarina had all fresh ingredients from the farmers market that day and the Ezzelina had homemade noodles! Definitely stop in :) can’t wait to eat our leftovers!

DOG friendly patio in back accessible through the walkways. Seriously some of the best pasta I have ever had. And yes, Im including Italy! Make sure you order the homemade pasta, although I'm sure the dry noodles are good as well. Many other options on the menu. See pics of menu from May 2018. The staff could not have been more friendly or professional. Public parking lot on the street behind the restaurant, across from Farmers Market on Sundays.

I can't say enough about this place. We went for a romantic meal, mainly attracted by the ambiance and it turned out to be one of the best meals I've had in a while. If you're in Ojai, this place is not to be missed. The menu is extensive and very well curated. The food is fresh, flavourful and delicious. The prices are a bit high, but generous portions of the high quality food more than justify the prices. I would highly recommend the 'Fettucine di Limone alla Marittima' - lemon/herb pasta in brandy-tomato-cream sauce with fresh wild local catch and baja california clams - I was totally blown away; it is easily of the best seafood dishes I have ever had. The outdoor seating is perfect for the pleasant Ojai evenings, and makes the dining experience delightful. A big shout out to our server who took amazing care of us and made our evening even more memorable. Highly recommend this place!

Got here at opening at 5. Unfortunately couldnt try the local wine but had a great italian red that was equivalent. Enjoyed the mushroom risotto, mushroom toast, the housemade pasta with shrimp and a house salad. Ingredients fresh, lots of shrimp with the housemade pasta. The bread with olive oil and balsamic tasty. Since my partner is diabetic, we opted for more pasta vs a dessert so no sweets. Overall did not disappoint. No corkage fee if ya bring your own. Fyi.

Hip Vegan is a popular spot in Ojai's shopping district, offering a variety of vegan sandwiches, salads, bowls, and smoothies. The minimalist counter-serve cafe is known for its tasty and fresh all-vegan and all-organic menu items. Customers can enjoy dishes like the Warung Burger with a housemade tempeh patty and peanut sauce or the Wagamama bowl with miso dressing.
We found this eatery by accident. I am glad we did! Everything is organic And VEGAN. I am not vegetarian but I like only healthy food!!! Portion was right (Wagamama Bowl). You can even have smoothies, coffee (Vietnamese)…. You can sit either inside or outside. It has a very nice atmosphere.

The Hip Vegan definitely fits in with the vibe of Ojai, California. My wife and I stumbled upon it after a walk in Ojai and we had a fantastic experience. Typically we are carnivores and did not know what to expect with an organic and vegan restaurant. The Hip Vegan has a very interesting menu and at first we did not know what to order. We wanted to try something new and we were completely surprised by how much we liked the food. We tried the Souk salad which had a fresh and great taste. At the register we saw their specials and decided to give two dishes a try. We ordered the Spicy noodles and Lime in the coconut and they both tasted great. The food was very filling and nutritious and a great value for your money. They offer a vast selection of different specialty drinks and also beer. The staff was friendly and the restaurant had a calm and mellow vibe. Honestly was surprised by how much we liked it! If you are looking for a healthy and nourishing meal, while enjoying the town of Ojai give Hip Vegan a try!

A solid vegan spot 🌱🌮 After a disappointing tofu dish last time, I was skeptical. I checked the menu beforehand but wasn’t thrilled—two dishes were too spicy, and the third had tempeh (not my thing). Still, I gave it another shot, and I’m glad I did. The best options were on the specials menu. My group ordered from the main menu—a burrito (solid) and a Wagamama Bowl (also good)—while I went for the ‘Lime of Coconut’ special, which was very good. Prices are reasonable, the ambience is pleasant, and overall, it was a much better experience than last time. Would return—but probably sticking to the specials!

Pizza restaurant
Nestled in the charming town of Ojai, Ojai Pizza Company is a delightful spot for pizza lovers. Known for its generous toppings and fresh daily dough infused with honey, this eatery offers not just pizzas but also a selection of salads, subs, and pastas. Wednesdays are particularly enticing as large pizzas are available at half price! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming; guests are greeted with friendly smiles upon arrival.
More than just pizza! 🍕🥪 I’d been eyeing their Hot Pastrami Sandwich for a while but was skeptical—$14 for a 6” felt steep. Then, on a rainy Friday, I discovered their lunch special ($2 off plus a drink), and suddenly, it felt like a much better deal. And wow—that sandwich delivered. Calling the pastrami “thinly sliced” is an understatement—it practically melts in your mouth. The bread was perfectly crunchy, and everything just worked. We also tried the Vegetarian and Meatball Sandwiches, both solid choices. Next time, we’re going for the pizza—and if it’s as good as the sandwiches, this place might just become a regular stop.

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque town of Ojai, Ojai Pizza Company is a true gem that blends delicious cuisine with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with the comforting aroma of freshly baked pizza and the inviting charm of a small-town eatery that clearly takes pride in its service and quality. The food is nothing short of exceptional. Each bite of pizza delivers a perfect balance of crisp, flavorful crust, rich tomato sauce, and generous, thoughtfully selected toppings. Whether you’re a fan of the classics or enjoy more adventurous combinations, there’s something on the menu to satisfy every palate. Equally noteworthy is the service. Emma, our server, was a standout. Her kind demeanor and helpful attitude made us feel genuinely welcome, enhancing the overall dining experience. She was attentive without being overbearing and added a personal touch that is often missing in larger establishments. The atmosphere at Ojai Pizza Company is relaxed and inviting, making it an ideal spot for both locals and visitors. Whether you’re grabbing a casual bite or settling in for a leisurely meal with friends or family, this place makes you feel at home. Final Verdict: If you find yourself in Ojai, Ojai Pizza Company is a must-visit. Great food, excellent service, and a setting that captures the spirit of this quaint little town — it’s everything you want in a local dining experience.

I visit Ojai about once a year and this place is ALWAYS on my list. The food is absolutely delicious! On this trip, I ordered delivery for the first time. Their website quoted an hour, and when the one hour mark came, their delivery driver (Lauren) called me to say she was on her way, about 10 minutes out. I’ve never had food delivery where the restaurant calls within the quoted time to notify me of delays. I’ve always had the absolute BEST customer service, which is only overshadowed by how good the food is!! Eat here, you’ll be back, too!

I appreciate that gluten free pizza options are available, but holy cow it is expensive. I understand paying a few dollars more to offset the cost for the restaurant, but paying the same amount for a small gf pizza and a large regular pizza is not right. Most people that are gluten free have no other choice.

Everything in THIS EXPERIENCE WAS GREAT!!! Upon walking in, we were greeted with a warm smile and friendly Hello, and allowed to choose our own seat. Ashley, our server took exceptional care of us, even seeing to a little extra toppings on our appetizer, the Potato Wedges. We enjoyed a lively and thriving business that places its guests and customers first, and it shows, as several parties came in over he next hour, keeping the staff hopping! The food was beautiful, from the salad to the woven edges of my calzone...it was as pleasing visually as it was on the tastebuds. The portions were excellent, as we both left with boxes to enjoy tomorrow, and left room for dessert. All in all, Ojai Pizza Company was every bit as awesome and fun as I had read online and I am thrilled to have come in. We will definitely be back!!

Revel - Kombucha Bar and Acai is a charming cafe located in the heart of town, offering a unique experience for both kombucha enthusiasts and newcomers. They take pride in brewing their own 'Champagne of kombuchas' and offer tasting flights for those looking to explore different flavors. In addition to their handcrafted probiotic beverages, they also serve delicious acai bowls made with wholesome organic ingredients, including local Ojai honey.
This is my favorite place for acai bowls and jun. What a treat! It's 5 hours from where I live, but when I have the chance to come to Ojai- the 1st stop is Revel. The jun flights are fun, and we love to just park ourselves, play a game of chess, and fill ourselves with the yummiest acai and jun ever!

Revel kombucha Bar and açaí in Ojai has hands down the best açaí bowls I’ve ever had—no exaggeration. I come all the way from Oxnard just for them, and it’s worth every mile. The fruit is always fresh, and beautifully arranged. But what really takes it to the next level is their granola—seriously the best I’ve ever tasted. It’s crunchy, flavorful, and adds the perfect texture to the bowl. The quality and care they put into every bowl is obvious. It’s not just a snack—it’s an experience. If you're anywhere near Ojai, you have to stop by Revel Place. Just be warned: once you try their açaí bowls, you’ll be hooked.

A must-visit for foodies! (5/5 Green Stars) I really liked the kombucha flight experience here. The place was relaxing haven on a rainy day, with friendly staff, board games to try and magazines to read. The Pink Moment was a favorite – it’s made from green tea, raw honey, ginger, hibiscus, orange zest and the jun culture. Technically, the culture is known as “jun” rather than a kombucha “SCOBY”. Kombucha is usually made by fermenting black tea and refined sugar while jun is made from green tea and raw honey. I learned something new today – two things, actaully! The other is that SCOBY stands for “symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast.” Anyway, even without strong flavors added (for example, the Om, which had just a little blackberry and lavender) Revel’s kombucha (jun!) tastes amazing. Perhaps even more enjoyable was the vegan charcuterie plate – vegan cheese and salami with crackers, olives and apricots. The vegan cheese was from Conscious Cultures in NY and the salami was from Renegade Foods. Honesty, I’ve never had better vegan cheese, and I’ve tried quite a few. There were two pretty sizeable chunks of cheese, in the styles of brie and blue, and each did really taste like the dairy equivalent. Another microbiology side-note: both brie and blue cheeses get a lot of their flavor from the Penicillium fungi that they are inoculated with, rather than the milk itself. So congrats to Conscious Cultures for figuring that out, and thanks to Revel for introducing them to me! I hope that charcuterie plate is still available as I don’t see it on the current webpage. I’m giving Revel Kombucha 5/5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact, for these reasons: • The kombucha is made from organic green tea and organic honey and various additions such as organic ginger, blackberry, orange zest, etc., depending on the flavor. • Besides being almost always organic, many ingredients are local too – like the oranges, of course! • The food on offer was great – the vegan charcuterie board introduced us to new products like amazing brie and blue cheeses from Conscious Cultures. • I appreciate that they let me purchase a liter of kombucha by refilling my Sigg flask. They also provide re-useable glass bottles for buying kombucha to-go.

Food was ordinary. I ordered the Sausage Platter with bratwurst for my sausage choice. The brats were dry and nearly flavorless. The fried broccoli was inedible. French fries were good but how do you mess up fries? As for the service, I sat at the bar. Despite literally sitting in front of the bartender, I had to wait for the bartender at the other end of the bar to take my order. The singer/guitarist was too loud for the venue. Also, he kept beckoning the crowd to accompany him on his songs. Great for a concert; not so much for a small pub.

My husband and I just got married at the Ojai Retreat and Inn. It could not have been a more perfect experience. The retreat center is beautiful, situated on the hilltop overlooking the Ojai Valley and the Topatopa Mountains for the perfect view of the famous Ojai pink moment. We did a full venue buy-out and had our immediate families stay on the property. It was delightful enjoying the grounds, watching the birds and rabbits, and admiring the stunning views. The retreat center provided us breakfast every morning so we could visit together and enjoy a delicious meal without having to go off property. There were plenty of areas to visit and catch up, from the scenic Mountain View Terrace to the Living Room at night and when it was raining. There are three separate areas we used for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Each was the perfect location for what we needed it to be. We chose the Pink Terrace Amphitheater for our ceremony, with a stunning view of the mountains. The Waterfall Garden kept our guests surrounded in beauty while my husband and I took pictures in the Meditation Garden during cocktail hour. And the Mountain View Terrace was the perfect place for us to enjoy dinner and dancing under the string lights by the outdoor fireplace. Our guests came from all over the country and kept admiring the view and saying it was God's Country. It was like something out of a fairytale! And I can't recommend the staff at the Retreat Center highly enough. From Ulrich the founder of the center who first gave us the tour of the property all the way to the housekeeping staff that tidied our rooms throughout the week, everyone was incredible. Oliver worked the front desk and helped us with our tech needs for showing our slideshow on the Retreat TV Monitor. Dana was there the day of our wedding with his kind presence and gifted us a lovely basket for having our wedding there. And Lia the business manager was amazing from start to finish, from the first email with information for booking all the way to leaving us a box of all our guest's lost and found at the end. Her kindness, laid back personality, and the freedom she gave us with our wedding ideas made her a delight to work with. Book the Ojai Retreat for your wedding, and if you're not getting married, just go up for a peaceful, lovely getaway. My husband and I can't recommend the place and the retreat staff enough!

My husband I were shocked to see the state of this hotel after reading so many amazing reviews. We are staying in the green room, which you enter through the kitchen and hallway. There was a women’s group holding an event and we had to walk through to get to our room. It’s old and shabby. One of the things that turned me off most is that the towels in the bathroom are so dingy, old and miscolored and appear dirty. I’m sure they’re clean but I literally wouldn’t use towels like this for my guests at home. The bedding also ancient. Yes there are nice views, but it’s in need of some major TLC. The waterfall garden isn’t really a garden and has fake grass around it. The pond is dirty and unappealing. The property has so much potential, but in its current state, i don’t recommend. The price was no bargain. We live about an hour away and considered actually going home after our dinner at the Ojai Valley Inn. We decided to stick it out.

A let down. The view is the only plus. The rooms are very old. The cleaner came once, and didn’t come back so we couldn’t empty our rubbish. Was a nice area, but no restaurants nearby. You will need to drive into town. It’s basic considering the high cost in October.

We got to our room, called green room, which wasnt easy to find. It was located right next fo a kitchen/dining hall, walking through a sterile corrior in what looked like it could have been a converted office, with old lady decor and a misleading view from outside compared to pictures. We were so depressed about it that we asked for our money back before taking the room, and they discounted our experience and complaints and would not refund us the money we paid in advance for the room. Check rooms carefully- definitely don’t recommend this room sadly. We aren’t ones to give bad reviews but this was our sub par experience.

Spent the weekend in Ojai and this was a great place to stay. There are some places to eat within walking distance of you don't mind the hill. My wife and I walked down to the nature preserve and to some of the shops a little beyond that. Great views of the valley and it was nice and quiet when we were there. The rooms were nice for a 2 star place, no TV which was not a big deal for me and my wife. The breakfast was nice too, which was included. The staff interaction we had although limited was very positive.

Me and my sister did the play with clay class and had a blast. Was a great first time throwing clay on a wheel (I have no natural talent) and got to make some cool pieces. The lady who owns the studio is very friendly and said you should book this class directly through her website rather than Airbnb or other sites because it’s cheaper. I thought that was nice of her to mention. You’ll get to make up to five pieces and decide which ones you want to keep. Then if you’re local enough, you can come back and glaze it yourself which I plan on doing

They were very hands on and helpful. Took the class with my six-year old who had a great time and loved learning about the pottery wheel. We used the option for staff to finish the pots and glaze them, and then they were shipped to us. They turned out even better than I expected, and it was like Christmas for my six-year old opening up the package when it arrived. Highly recommend. Thanks!

Located in the heart of Ojai, Heavenly Honey Company offers a delightful honey tasting experience for visitors. This family-run establishment showcases a variety of unique and flavorful honeys made from local bees. Visitors can sample different varieties and learn about the distinct characteristics of each type from the knowledgeable owner. Whether you're a honey enthusiast or simply looking for an authentic Ojai flavor, this charming store is a must-visit destination.
We did a honey tasting at Heavenly Honey, and we were so impressed with the quality of the experience. The staff member took us through a hypothetical tour of California while letting us sample 8 honey flavors, 4 of which were pre-selected and 4 of which we chose. The tasting was only $5! He was knowledgeable and kind, and we enjoyed our experience so much. The honey was exquisite and affordable, and they had jars of all prices and sizes. Our favorites were the lavender and honey. Definitely pay a visit to this amazing store if visiting Ojai!

Can definitely recommend the honey tasting here. It was a full tour learning experience where you can feel the family farm vibes. I had no idea the distinct difference in honey flavor & texture from single origin plants the bees were pollinating. Just beware, it is hard to narrow down purchase decisions when everything is so delicious.

I was pleasantly surprised by this lovely honey tasting room. The personal tasting experience, given by the owner, Barbara, was especially eye-opening. Each honey has its own story and journey that makes theirs special. The lavender honey was a standout for my nightly relaxing tea time and the Fiddleneck is now my secret sauce in my Salmon recipe. The chrystalled Sunflower Honey with Organic Lemon oil bests any Lemon curd I used to use. Stop in, enjoy the fun tasting and go home with some special honey. Better yet, have it shipped to you. It's a special gift to share with those you love.
Amanda F — Google review
$3 for tasting of 6 honey, which is not expensive but the experience was lackluster. I'm not looking for a spoonful of honey, but each sample felt very skimpy. No educational background or anything, just 6 samples which took less than 10 minutes even with the savoring. Nothing outstanding about it and it's something that's free at other honey shops so I wouldn't recommend it.

Love this place! I never knew there could be so many different types and flavors of honey! They are all so good I had to pace myself! They offer honey tasting and I strongly recommend it. They also have some cute gift items and candles to choose from. Stop by if you're in Ojai!

I am from the south, and honey is a staple in my diet. After 2 years and trying every brand sold in stores, I found this mom and pop while doing an exploration of Ojai. I use my honey mainly for drinks, but rarely I'll use it for desserts. The Sage honey and the Lavender Honey have completely annihilated all competitors for me. I bulk buy from this company every year now, I get it for people as gifts and they always come back about the lavender honey and how to get more. Its helped with my allergies as well, cant say enough good things about this place. 10/10 If you live in LA, and your in Ojai for a visit, this is a must.

Such an amazing shop for a long narrow space. Loved the colorful bistro tables and matching chairs. Adorable selections for baby gifts. If you love ornaments of animals dressed in clothing, this is the place! Fun glass hummingbird feeders, colored drinking glasses & carafe sets. Sooo many gift ideas if you don’t know what to get someone. Staff was very friendly and stayed busy keeping the store looking organized and appealing.

This is a must see. So many great, creative local crafty products. It is literally a hole in the wall so look for the turquoise doorway. Most of the items are outdoor gargen/patio decor, but there is a small interior shop with jewelery, blankets and much more. Not only many custom products, but more importantly, there are lots of local unique gifts. Some prices are high, but there are some must have values. This will be a stop for us every time we return to Ojai.

The perfect example of judgement in our society. The moment my brother of special needs and I walked in here there was no acknowledgment of our existence. Do not come here if you are Hispanic or not white. On vacation with my family and would have been happy to spend money on some of the sweet things I saw in here. Too bad only their materialistic products have any life to them. Continue the blatant racism. It’s what makes our society so much better.

Nestled in the heart of Downtown Ojai, Bonnie Lu's is a charming breakfast haven that captures the essence of homestyle dining. This beloved spot offers a delightful array of classic American breakfasts, from fluffy pancakes to their renowned biscuits and sausage gravy. Many locals have made it a tradition to visit Bonnie Lu's every Sunday before heading to the farmers market, and it's no surprise why visitors rave about its inviting diner atmosphere.
This is the cutest place. Sparkling clean and inviting. We stopped in for lunch but ordered breakfast, which is available all day. A short stack of blueberry pancakes and an egg on the side. The pancakes are huge and filled with lots of juicy blueberries. My hubby ordered the French toast, which was yummy, which came with fresh fruit. Both were top-notch. It's a little pricey, but this is located in prime Ojai. Service is excellent and friendly. We will definitely be back when we return to Ojai in the future. Another customer ordered a tuna sandwich, which look excellent!

Wonderful experience overall. Big meals for a great price and the friendliest staff. while the food was diner food it still had a true homemade taste, not just open a big bad of frozen foods and drop in the fryer. Felt like stepping back in time to an old family diner. We loved it and can’t wait to return. It’s a nice alternative to the rest of the area.

I'm sorry to disagree with most of the other reviews. I had "Country Benedict", which was described as poached eggs on a sausage patty, on a biscuit, all covered with gravy. The sausage patty was home-made and tasteless except for an occasional hint of spoilage. The gravy was a tasteless slurry. The poached eggs were undercooked. The coffee, which was extra, was weak. It's evidently the restaurant has a lot of regulars, so maybe I was just unlucky, but anyway this was my experience.

It’s a really traditional American style restaurant. You can tell the waitresses are really friendly and they’re happy to serve. Multiple choices on the menu. You can always find the dish you like! Some of the food are little too greasy, and the sour dough does not taste the best. It’s a nice restaurant but unfortunately we waited for 30mins to be seated and another hour for the food. Make our dinning experience disappointed. Hope you can improve it after seeing this review!

From five stars to three I've been here since 06 and it's just not the same. I used to go there for breakfast but the salad bar just isn't the same. It's got three or four mystery salads now with mystery goop mixed in with it. The individual offerings are cut down by at least 50%, so it's difficult to make a salad I consider nutritious for me. Otherwise I pretty much like the store. The people are nice and occasionally ask if they can help me and I've even been asked what I think of their operation by a couple people and I've been politely honest.

Terrible customer service. My partner and I made a reservation to reserve an e bike. The e bike was very uncomfortable and could not be adjusted unless we returned to the shop. We did so and asked if they had another type of bike that we could rent because this one was uncomfortable. No accommodations were even attempted. They happily took our $100 after we only rented the bike for 30 minutes due to the poor quality of the bike. Not to mention that they would not rent us an extra helmet and also insulted our own e bike. Hard to say if we received poor treatment due to race or gender discrimination as a queer, POC couple as I see most of the positive reviews are from white men. We have emailed management and have yet to receive a refund or response. Update: I received the attached email from the owner Tim after posting this review. While I appreciate the refund, as you can see from his tone, this shop is not interested in taking accountability for the poor customer service we received. I did call Tim and speak to him but again, zero accountability.

If you are looking for a non e-bike for riding the valley trail: go to Bicycles of Ojai. 25% cheaper, much more availability, and friendly and helpful service.

Please stop using the INDIGENOUS MEXICAN CULTURE for your OWN personal FINANCIAL GAIN. This is not a moment to CAPITALIZE , it is DISTURBING to see you be so comfortable selling OUR CULTURE. This is NOT a “BOHO” look, otomi embroidery has a meaning, each pattern signifies something. However, you wouldn’t know since you didn’t take the time to educate yourself about my culture, but were very quick to capitalize from it. I am BEYOND OFFENDED!! The clothes you’re are selling with otomi embroidery, is a unique embroidered practice that has been passed down for generations to women of Otomi descent. Can you please RESPECT our culture and continue to let it be that way. It was meant for US, NOT FOR YOU to STEAL and PROFIT from our CULTURE. Til this day we get made fun off and at one point mistreated for wearing these pieces, but when someone who is YT sells/wears it, it gets labeled as bohemian since that’s how YT people who are selling these items are presenting it. You are damaging and disrespecting a whole group of people and country, please put a stop to this. It’s not okay for you to change the way people look at OUR clothes. YOU DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE THE MEANING BEHIND OUR CLOTHES! OUR OTOMI EMBROIDERY IS NOT FASHION, IT IS NOT BOHO, IT’S NOT EVEN AN AESTHETIC, IT IS OUR CULTURE.

Sophisticated boutique with modern & bohemian clothing for all ages, plus accessories & home goods.
Great shop! So many cool things for the whole family. Great denim for the guys, chic simple cloths for the women and a easy children's corner for the little one's to hang out while you shop. I purchased a kaftan for my sister in law in Manhattan and she loved it! Even her 15 year old was trying to steal it.

This is such a special store, welcoming staff, wonderful wares that include brands not found anywhere locally. I've worn everything I bought there this summer with so many compliments. I love shopping In the Field. Thank you for a beautiful place to shop and enjoy myself!

I love this store the clothes and accessories. My biggest gripe is that the sizes are all so small. They order in tons of size 2’s and 4’s maybe a size 6 and hardly ever a size 8. EVERY time and I mean Everytime I have been in there (and it’s a lot as I live in Ojai) I have never ever seen a six 6 or 8 but tons of 2’s and 4’s when I ask why they don’t order 8’s or even a 10’s they look at me like I’ve lost my mind. (By the way they don’t order anything above an 8) I am 6 feet tall i am not going to fit into a 2 or even a 4 ever! I love this store however I can’t shop here only for super models apparently....

Performing arts group
The Ojai Music Festival is an annual event held in June, featuring a variety of musical performances and educational workshops. The festival showcases the talents of both established musicians and students from Ojai Schools. One notable performance was 'The Classical Style: An Opera (of Sorts),' which humorously explored the legacy of classical composers like Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven.
Ojai's music festival is magical to me somehow. I came years ago with my dad and we enjoyed our evening under the oaks. This time I'm attending the afternoon concert. The setting is equally magical but for different reasons. The relaxed friendly vibe is not often felt in the day to day. The musicians warn up beforehand while guests congregated on the nearby tennis courts for a pre concert discussion. At the same time the festival is televising the event and is interviewing and reviewing the schedule quietly in the corner for viewers at home. Ojai has been abuzz all weekend with festival events elsewhere in the Ojai Valley. This annual event will have to become a new yearly habit.

Breathe in the air and soak in the great selection of music, musicians, and friendly faces. Plenty of street parking, easy access, helpful staff. Surrounded by culture and great food at reasonable prices.

We attend this quirky and challenging music festival every year. We always learn something new, love something​ surprising, and wince at an experiment gone awy. But we LOVE it!!
Scott L — Google review
It was my first time to see and hear the sounds of the music of students from the Ojai Schools, The conductors and directors clearly had chosen works that lit up the younger children as they watched and danced in their chairs. I was dancing as I stood in the back and watched in awe. My eyes welled up as my heart filled with joy to see children playing music so beautifully. The percussion presentation was fun, energetic, and interactive. Thank you Ojai Music Festival for bringing the Imagine concert to so many children and families in Ojai.

Ojai is the town to visit and buy wine. There's a trail that extends all the way to the beach. The trail is flat and it runs behind the main street in Ojai. Beautiful town.

The debut last night at the Ojai Music Festival of "The Classical Style: An Opera (of Sorts) soared through academic spoof and unraveled the hero worship of the greatest dead composers, Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. Jeremy Denk has won me over as ardent supporter of his creative genius. With writing and performances like these, "classical" music will remain alive well beyond the "busts" handed out by piano teachers. The libretto, by Jeremy Denk, was filled with laugh out loud lines for music lovers. The score by composer Steven Stucky supported the content brilliantly- The performance enriched the audience's appreciation of music while poking lots of jokes at itself. Next stop, straight to google to figure out Charles Rosen... Bravo! Bravo!Bravo!!!

(Translated by Google) It is a small library that resembles an ordinary house. There were no books in the field of psychology that I searched for, but there were quite a few books on the Korean War. Until now, I have not been particularly interested in records related to war history, but I heard that there is a lot of reading material here, so I will definitely read it next time. (Original) 아담한 크기의 일반 하우스같은 도서관이다. 검색해 보았던 심리학 분야의 책은 없었으나, Korean War에 관한 책은 제법 있었다. 그동안 전쟁역사에 관한 기록물에 별관심이 없었는데, 이곳에 상당한 읽을거리가 있다니 다음에 꼭 읽어보리라.

Librarian was very kind to me and has good customer phone service. Extremely accommodating phone lockers to charge your devices. Their book sale offered me more special finds than I know what to do with—I filled a whole bag for a discount! It's a comfortable setting with few, if any, issues, plus they're open late til 8!

If you are looking for an activity with a calm and peaceful vibe, this is it. It’s a beautiful short drive away from the main road and it’s worth it. The ladies are sweet. Dog-friendly in outdoor areas and plenty of parking too. We ended up purchasing the Tuscan Herb Infused Olive Oil and Raspberry Balsamic Vinegar after our tasting. I would recommend this place to my family and friends.
Angie H — Google review
This place was a great spot to sample their high-quality olive oil. We enjoyed an olive oil tasting, but the bread was too hard, making it difficult to fully appreciate the flavors. However, the ambiance was wonderful, being out in nature was a nice experience. The service was good. My favorite part, though, was the drive to the place, it was scenic.
Mayi B — Google review
For our very first stop in Ojai, this place was absolutely perfect. The prices are very reasonable, and you can sample a wide variety of olive oils, infused oils, and vinegars. The setting has a relaxed, nature-friendly vibe, and pets are welcome to hang out in the outdoor area. A must-visit spot when exploring Ojai!

It was an amazing experience, every type of olive oil has its unique flavor and aroma. The vinaigrette was tasty as well and the owner was super nice he took time to explain the process of everything that’s done there. I highly recommend this place and I’d definitely come back again.

Set above Ojai, on a twisty road with beautiful views, the Beatrice Wood Center is an extremely interesting stop for anyone interested in the hand-crafted arts, especially pottery and weaving. There was a really nice glass exhibit while we were there. Pans we were delighted to meet one of the weavers, who we interrupted at her work, and who was so generous as to explain her process and tell us about the various pieces on display. All of them were beautiful and they’re for sale! Prices were incredibly reasonable for such unique items. Time it right, and on your way back down to Ojai you can pull over at the view point and maybe at h the “pink moment” on the Topatopa mountains.

Great location for museum with solitude in the hills behind Ojai. Beatrice Woods workshop is available for displaying her ceramic studio contents and finished works of pottery for sale, as her original home. She has an interesting lifestyle told by the docents minding her museum. Also, on offer are skillful ceramic workshops available as classes to learn sculpture in clay, taught by an instructor, as glazing, staining ant other artistic techniques.
Stephanie K — Google review
A special homage to the spiritual ceramicist who lived and worked here to the age of 105. Maintained by a dedicated couple who give tours and manage the working studio.

The Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts lies on the outskirts of Ojai Amid a breathtaking mountainous setting.The Center exhibits Beatrice Wood's master works in Ceramics. Her travels, especially to India, are evident in the Center's display of portions of her extraordinary collection of Indian Folk Art. Fascinating glimpses of her exceptional life can be read from photos and documents displayed in historic house fashion in one section of the Center. Far from just being about Wood, the Center celebrates the best in ceramic work by other artists too. One of the exhibitions on view at the time of my visit was The Presidents' Show a showcase for The American Ceramic Society of Southern California (ACS SoCA) the premier ceramic artists' organization in Southern California . The Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts also showcases different kinds of art by diverse artists. Perhaps with a leaning towards Beado's love of Indian Folk Art , I came to visit the Center this time to view the new exhibition of Gond Art a tribal form of Indian painting done by individual artists in Ink and Acrylic Paint. The works are drawn from the mythological stories of one of the largest tribes in India with whom it shares its name. The works are compelling, mysterious and beautiful. In addition to the visual explosion of delights there is much more to be found at the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts . The Center boasts one of the most ambitious and diverse educational programs I have ever encountered at a small arts organization.. They offer a full range of lectures, performances, workshops, classes for adults and children and internships too. What is utterly amazing is that this whole operation is run on a virtual shoestring. It is in the words of the Center's Director ,Kevin Wallace (noted artist, author, curator, & 'magician'), " a labor of love". There is no endowment, no staff really, most instruction is done for the love of the craft by seasoned professionals who believe in the vision of the place. Rounding out all of this wonder is a great SHOPPING EXPERIENCE! Since Beatrice Wood was so prolific, there is a rich secondary market of her work for sale at the Center and there are many exquisite pieces for sale .The Center Store sells some of her matted and framed droll, wonderful drawings as well as lovely ceramic works by a number of regionally and nationally known ceramicists. Other types of original art are also sold in the store. There is an interesting variety of art related books available to buy as well. Visit The Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts, the setting called aptly called Happy Valley ( another story) is magnificent. In popular culture the name Shangri-La has attached itself to the Ojai Valley since the 1937 film Lost Horizon. If you are searching for a Shangri-La of the Arts in Ojai take a journey to the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts. You will find it there!

Love this place! I had a solo exhibition in 2019 and have been showing my sculptures there and teaching three workshops. I would highly recommend this amazing, spiritual place for anybody to visit or to take the workshops!

I've taken 3 ceramic workshops at Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts and all have been GREAT. Beautiful and peaceful setting, warm, welcoming, kind and gifted stewards Kevin and Sheryl (Sp?) create a wonderful space of creative growth and awareness. Kevin is especially gifted in the art of vegetarian cooking, and scrumptiously beautiful lunch was provided. Their excellence just SHINES. The instructors are FABULOUS and I just attended Natasha Dikareva's "Narratives in Clay" workshop...LIFE CHANGING. I can't say enough good things about this gallery, the classes and the people who run this facility. I swear, I would live there if I could. I feel as if I have walked on sacred ground.

What a truly special place. I recently took a ceramics workshop here and had an incredible experience. The two day workshop was taught outside on a massive patio covered by a canopy of trees overlooking the Topa Topa mtns. One of the best views in Ojai! And a perfect space for creating. The team at the Art Center prepared the most delicious home cooked meals for lunch with multiple salad options and incredible hot dishes. The instructor Jon Keenan was an absolute joy. I would highly recommend The Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts for any workshop or just to stop by and visit the gallery. An Ojai must.
