As Santa Barbara’s original Irish pub since 1996, The James Joyce wraps you in a classic, lively atmosphere anchored by its iconic peanut-shell-covered floors and warm hospitality. While celebrated for traditional premium draughts and local craft brews, the expert bartenders are also mixing a massive selection of traditional craft cocktails alongside a robust, top-shelf whiskey portfolio. From their signature Irish Coffee to creative spirits, every drink pairs perfectly with the nostalgic, cozy pub energy and complimentary bar peanuts.
TGIF events are a great way to start the weekend in a fun, relaxing setting. At TGIF, you will make new friends, catch up with existing friends and get to know the local restaurants and bars. With no registration required, the events are open to Newcomers and graduates...and attendees can bring a friend along.
