I loveeeee the Little Miss Piggy 🐷 sandwich!! I always eat it before I remember to take a picture but I highly recommend. The place is small and because of Covid they only have a few tables outside that are a litttttle too close each other in my opinion but not bad. If you call ahead, just walk right in and check the stand next to the register for your sandwich and it should be sitting there. If not, go ask!
A fantastic experience as a customer. Browsing when approached by owner. Told of our train trip the following day. She got to work and put together a cheese and meat tray (portable) and even gave us an ice pack to to keep things chilled overnight. With a bottle of wine it made our trip home on the train a delight.
This place was awesome. The sandwiches are really good and the gyros are pretty good as well.
Awesome little deli and market, packed with Italian deli meats, cheeses, desserts, wine, and miscellaneous food. The submarine sandwich was great, as was the BLT+AC. Everything tasted super fresh and the portions were perfect. Btw, some of the best cheesecake Ive had in a long time. Plenty of room and shade on the front patio too.
Anytime we are in Santa Barbara we stop here. Such good sandwiches, great salads & sides, and selection of artisanal food goods. The folks who work here are so kind as well! I recommend the Italian job & cheese plate (plus wine !)
Divine! The OMG sandwich is 🔥
Great food!! Friendly staff.
Ive eaten here now than any other place on earth. Almost a daily stop for lunch. Best sandwiches in SB!
The sandwich was amazing. I would go back in a heartbeat.
Amazing food and amazing service highly recommend
Great food and customer service, nice staff. Our large lunch orders for the office are always correct. Thank you, Annie & team!
Fantastically delicious Mediterranean food. I had the gazpacho which was absolutely flavorfull and refreshing . The pasta salad and the caprese were both done incredibly creatively and well. If u need a quick bite to eat thats healthy and delicious youll love this place. It is not cheap fast food, but your kids dont need to college.
The most friendly amazing staff and the food is to die for!! One of my all time favorite places!
Even in this time of only take-out dining, the food was delicious even delayed until we arrived at the beach! Thank you, Ill definitely be back!
Great food and variety of deli and grocery items, Gluten free bread and past is awesome!
I Love this place. Good food with friendly people. Mornings are not crowded and calling in order has foid ready to go when you get there. Located near funk zone too
To long for a wait for a sandwich 35mins
Great sandwiches and a great location. Parking is a bit challenging but worth the effort
Excellent Greek food!
Always great. The gyros are sublime
One of the best places in town for a sandwich, usually busy but still seems to be quick, all with a relaxed romantic vibe. Everyone seems to love working there, employees are always on point with service and nice. Have been inspired to make some of the food Ive got from them, and I have yet to find something on the menu I did not like. Deli case is small but tasty, the pastries are amazing. Grab a baseball sized chocolate dipped coconut macaroon and a half of any sandwich without breaking the bank.
The lamb gyro was excellent. Lots of really refined items.
The gyro was well worth the hype! So delicious.
Great amount of food from around the world
Amazing, nice, cheerful staff helped me with everything I needed (everyone was happy to help me out) and i got some cheese, sardines, wine and chocolate covered figs! Super excited to try all of this stuff, thank you metropulos!
Skip all other sandwich places in SB because Metropulos cant be beat!!! The place has some great European vibes and its always busy. You can pick up supplies for a cheese board, find a gift for your foodie friends, or prepare for a picnic here. Its not open Sundays, which is of course the day I always want to go, but when I do make it there, Im never disappointed.
Great sandwiches, staff is always friendly, even tho they sometimes forget when I say no onions, I still come back! 🥪
Horrible place . The ignorant horrible witch grey haired woman discriminates against disabled people. It happened to me. Read yelp .
Stopped in on vacation. Avocado s The Rooster, BLT, specialty sodas. A great break from processed food off a semi truck. Everything was fresh, creative and delicious. The digs in chocolate were amazing.
This place is a must go! Food is so good!
Metropulos is a great neighborhood deli and market. Its in the heart of the Funk Zone and has a great Santa Barbara feel. The food is very fresh, and there is something on the menu for everyone.You can bring a group of friends here and everyone can find something.
Some packaged stuff I bought their was a bit old, fresh stuff is always great though
Killer sandwiches, great selection of wines and beers!
Great sandwiches, beer and ambiance. A mellow lunch spot when your in the funk zone. Ive never gotten hassled for parking in the parking lot across the street either.
I had Metropulos Fine Foods Merchant with delivery. It was good, taste great, cheese naan is . Only little complain Ill have is it said delivery wouldve taken 30-40 minutes while mine took almost an hour to get here (59 minutes if you want a precise number lol). But like I said, food itself was great.
I get a sandwich here about twice a week. Theyre very good. Sometimes the service is disorganized and sandwiches can take a while and their service isnt the warmest in town.
This place seems to be more of a sandwich shop with some grocery items rather than a grocery store with sandwiches. The sandwiches, though, were very good and there are lots of options for both hot and cold sandwiches as well as drinks of all sorts including beer and wine. The prices were also more reasonable than I expected.
Sleeper for a great lunch. I always try the daily special. A nice bike ride for me and worth the effort. Come check out this Santa Barbara foodie hot spot. Cant wait to return.
What a great find! We stopped here on our way home and it was fantastic! The sandwiches were delicious and we purchased some wine for such a great price! Next time I am in SB I will be back!
Amazing gyros! And the deli has authentic Greek and Italian ingredients. Great place!
Everything is delicious. Authentic. I love eating and shopping here.
This little piggy.....Amazing 👏 🙀
Excellent tri-tip sandwich and caprese salad. Both extraordinary. Topped off with a delicious chocolate pecan bar. Visit this place!
Some of the best sandwiches in town are made here. Ive never walkaway from one of their sandwiches without being throughly satisfied.
Great food, pleasant staff and a huge selection. A definite do over!
Great selection of deli foods, friendly staff, and outstanding service. Avocado sandwich is the best sandwich in town!
Simply the best of everything. An eclectic masterpiece. Not surprisingly, the owner hails from the Chicago area where they do food a just tad better than CA.
Excellent lunch offerings. Great service. A little pricey.
Ive been eating lunches here almost everyday for over an year. Brilliant sandwiches, ambience and a very friendly staff. A gem of a delli.
So good. Giros, Bottarga, Foie Gras. Many items you might not know you want but you need!
I got the OMG sandwich. I really enjoyed it. This is a cute deli with a large sandwich menu, plenty of drinks to choose from, and a selection of unique grocery items.
Get the Harissa bomb. Its one of the greatest sandwiches Ive ever had. Ive spent years trying to replicate it myself, and while Ive sometimes gotten close Ive never quite got it.
Amazing place to be at if ever you needed something in a hurry. I love how organized the whole place is. I always make my shopping here.
Great sandwiches!!
Gyro, Gyro, Gyro . . . Nothing else to say man. Its insanely good!
Love this place for lunch. You can get a half sized sandwich which is affordable and delicious!
Smokey jack is the bomb my favorite ..its very clean and the people is very nice thanks Metropolus..
Lovely Deli in the Funk Zone........Great food & Fast friendly service....👍👍👍 Patricia k Jansen
Best sandwiches in SB. The tuna avocado is amazing!!! Susan and the crew are the best!!
The gyros are to die for. The staff is friendly and the food is great. Its laid back and casual.
By far the best sandwiches in Santa Barbara
Absolutely amazing sandwiches. Italian deli offering local and imported goods.
Lots of variety and tasty sandwiches, all while enjoying the patio and taking in the people watching of the Funk Zone
Just had a lunch (sandwiches) there and it was excellent!!!
New favorite sandwich spot. Try their sugar cookies.
This was a cute hole in the wall with nice scenery that we stopped by. Most the food here was greek which im not a big fan of so i decided to split a turkey sandwich which i didnt like very much but the people i split it with did. The employees here are very kind and welcoming.
Best gyros in all of Santa Barbara! And a fine little food market inside.
Great atmosphere and staff... And really great food!!
Their Metroreuben sandwich is amazing. Ive heard good things about the gyros too.
One if my very favorite sammich shops in Santa Barbara, not your typical deli. The sammiches sold here are uniquely crafted with prime ingredients and flavours from all around the world. I reccomend the Bhan Mi, OMG, or the Gyros!
Tasty sandwiches & large drink selection. Pleasant staff.
Great sandwiches and enough to share 😊
Love those gyros fo sho!
Excellent sandwhiches! Great desserts@
Italian Job is amazing. Many more visits will happen.
Awesome gyro!
Dee-lish! Place is really good. When locals recommend a place u hafta go. And literally right as u arrive in the neighborhood.Theres a selection of drinks even non-alcoholic.Stop in eeryday sorta place. Baguette, wine, charcuterie, sweets, deli, meats, cheeses, sweets & all sorts of goodies.And its like sitting at Rass Cass in Monte Carlo is the only way to describe sitting outside (I still havent been in Monaco but thats how I felt).
Best sandwiches in town, try the gyros! So delicious😋
Favorite deli in Santa Barbara. New York style with specialty foods
Love their food! Always excellent
Really good lunch place for sandwiches and has great cookies
Great sandwich shop! Plus good supplies of European specials
Best delisandwich I have had.
Their sandwiches are absolutely delicious, and the gyros are the best in town; however, this place is a bit expensive for someone who would want to lunch here more than once a week.
Amazing sandwiches and a pretty nifty market.
This location is one of my favorites.
Really good sandwiches with fresh ingredients
One of Santa Barbara treasured Delhis
Everyones was friendly, sandwiches were great!
Gyros....in SB. Nuff said.
Great place for lunch!
