We went for St.Paddy's Day hoping for some Irish music. There wasn't any. It was SUPER LOUD!! Even shouting to each other it was impossible to hear. The music was fun to sing along with and the people watching was amazing. The Fish and Chips were good. Huge portions. I don't know how the waitstaff could hear anything, but we all got what we wanted. It was fun to see how people dressed too. It was absolutely freezing that night, and the wind was blowing hard, and most of the women were dressed super scantily. In things you'd wear to the beach. Guys were in jeans and sweaters. Lol

Terrific downtown Irish pub. The lunch is fantastic and can’t wait to return for a game of pool in the evening. Add this place to your list of Santa Barbara stops.

Nice Irish pub. Large dining area, pool tables in other area. Happy hour specials. Corned beef sliders delish. "Home made" chips. Def worth a visit!

We brought my mother-in-law for lunch. She is English and we were relieved that she enjoyed the food. The food was hearty and we were very full. It’s a very spacious and clean pub. They also had outdoor dining. We had very good service.

10/04/2021 I stopped in for some wings and a coke. A pound of Buffalo wings, celery and ranch dressing was $13. A coke (refills included) was $3.50. The wings came out super fast. So I did not wait long for my food. The restaurant and pub area is kept exceptionally clean. The restrooms were very clean and tidy as well. There is dining indoors and outdoors as well as bar seating. There was a fire lit in the fireplace that added ambiance. And you can also play pool here. There is a Happy Hour menu M-F 3-6pm. I was able to find parking on the street and walked to the restaurant. Patrick was my server. He was very attentive to me as well as the other patrons. Thank you!

Atmosphere & Vibe • Authentic Irish Pub: The pub is praised for its traditional, warm, brick-walled interior, dark green walls, and decor that evokes a sense of history, including a "Guinness for Strength" mural. • Social Hub: It's considered a social hub with a lively, festive, and high-energy environment, which some reviews refer to as having great craic (Gaelic for "good times"). • Layout: The pub features two main areas: a front room that is sometimes described as a bit younger/rougher and includes pool tables/billiards, and a second bar/dining area. • Events: It is known for hosting traditional live Irish music and dancing, often on Thursday evenings. Food & Drink • Traditional Fare: Many patrons appreciate the traditional Irish meals and pub favorites. The menu offers a classic selection including: • Irish Specialties: Options like Bangers & Mash, Shepherd's Pie, Irish Stew, and Corned Beef and Cabbage (though one review noted the latter may not be made in a strictly traditional style). • Pub Favorites: Dishes like Fish and Chips and Onion Rings receive specific praise (some calling the onion rings "amazing"). • Beverages: The pub is well-regarded for its selection of Irish brews, including being a purveyor of Guinness, and a wide array of Irish whiskeys. They also offer a full bar with cocktails and mules. • Happy Hour: They offer a happy hour on weekdays from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM with deals on drinks and appetizers. General Experience • Service: Service is generally described as attentive and hospitable. • Location: The pub is conveniently located, even noted as being easily accessible from a nearby Tesla Supercharging station. • Late Night: Some recent comments, particularly on online forums, suggest the late-night bar scene can be "sketchy" or "rougher" and is not for everyone. However, others report consistently positive experiences. Patrons who prefer a quieter time often visit during happy hour or for dinner. Dargan's is a solid choice for those looking for an authentic Irish pub experience, traditional food, and a good pint, particularly earlier in the evening.

Had a birthday, on my daughter, here. Casual dining and only Irish food, and drinks at the bar. Can walk to the beach for, a relaxing. Day trip, plays music and local bands. Dancing with fab, and gay. Has a lovely atmosphere too.

We went here to hang out and have a good time on New Year’s eve but Sarah the main bartender was so rude and has the worst attitude. Not only towards her own coworkers but customers as well. It threw off the atmosphere and really made us uncomfortable. avoid her if you can.

The bartender near the pool tables came up and grabbed our balls mid-game and said that theres a waiting list. We were didn't know of this list, and were rudely made aware as he ruined our game. We would have gladly cleaned up or joined the waiting list if he wasn't so abrupt about it. It wasn't busy enough to constitute the rush he was in either. Its Thursday night and raining, not many people out. Extremely disappointed, there wasn't a sign or anything, nor did we have to grab a rack, they were out on the table. We even asked people nearby if they were using the table. Boo.

Spent $30 on credits for the Jukebox, later learning after spending around $10 of those credits that the guy behind the bar was controlling the music through his phone. Now that wasn't really my issue. My issue was that this guy actually had the nerve to cop an attitude with me when I complained "What the heck, ive been sitting here pumping money into the machine as people are giving him song requests while my money is being flushed down the drain"... He marches over to the jukebox or something to that nature, "FINE, ill turn the jukebox back on".... Im Never going in there again.

This place sold me drinks all night underage. I finally left, my friend forgot his ID and they tried to say HE was underage even though he was above age and refused to give me drinks all night. They made me call the cops, the cops were extremely friendly and helpful. The pub still refused to give my friend’s ID back even though the police insisted that its real. Finally got it back thanks to the great police, but ridiculous I had to wait outside the bar with my friend for over 2 hours after closing time just to get his ID back.
