While the ingredients were fresh enough, the roll my sandwich was on was gummy, the ingredients were cut too thick, the cookie was stale.The store was well organized and there are lots of fun items, but I could have purchased a much better sandwich for half the price at Sprouts.The help seemed nice against their will. Its too bad, because I don't think this is what the owner planned.

The PL Santa Rosa Chicken sandwich and the Smoked Salmon Bagel were fantastic. We got them to-go and ate them at a table in the wonderful park across the parking lot.

Charming and well equipped boutique, small town, gourmet grocery, prepared foods, coffee bar, pastry, deli and bakery source with adjacent outdoor eating patio complete with fountain. Easy parking and access from main roads. Located in central strip mall with more boutique retail for after meal stroll. We made time for sandwiches (fabulous but spendy) but lamented not being able to bring more prepared goods with us on the long drive home. (Everything looked wonderful and locals swarmed.) Recommend a pop-in.

Sandwiches are fresh, made to order. Great food to-go or you can sit in the back or out side and eat. Service is ok, sometimes a little slow to call your number out. The chicken soup is one of my favorites in town. All the soups are delicious. Every now and then they don't heat up the pre made food enough, like the lasagna or frittatas are cold by time you get it. You kinda have to remind them you want your food HOT. The Caprese Panini is one of my favorites but once again I tell them to make sure it's "well done" because Iv had it before and the cheese is barely melted. In the back they have a full on coffee shop with fine chocolates and candies. I really love this place even though some times they mess up on my order, I still come back. It's convenient for a quick meal or coffee. It does get pretty packed with tourist, it's out of the way and off the beaten path, so not sure why they make a stop here, But I think some people just like the experience and ambiance of montecito upper village. Try the cookies and other baked goods, I always get at least one with my order.

My home away from home! The best coffee, healthy pastries, yummy salads, and after drinker tree are! Everyone that works there has worked there for years and makes you feel like you're family! A beautiful park right across the street with little tables to enjoy your snacks or wine!
We love this market and stop regularly to pick up their amazing chocolate chip cookies for our kids. The coffee is fabulous and only $2.25 if you bring your own travel mug. They have a great assortment of prepared foods, lovely cooking/kitchen-related gifts, and some very fancy smoothies at the cafe in the back. Coke and grab a sandwich, snag a nice outdoor seat, and enjoy a meal in this wonderful weather.

CELEBRITIES GO HERE. I have seen many famous people here! You can’t go wrong with this place. I love the veggie lasagne and I always get a few milk chocolate covered graham crackers. They also have fresh coffee drinks and juice.

Quaint, charming, and authentically French market-esque! I felt like I popped in here off the Rue St. Michelle!

What a treasure the Pierre LaFond Market is. They offer a lot of specialty food items and a great wine selection. Their deli and menu items are wonderful. Some of the best frittata, so beautifully prepared with several options to choose from.Their produce section was smallish but adequate for what they are and of high quality and freshness.Their prices in the market are great especially for the to order food items.They also have a selection of home and kitchen items available for sale.And great customer service. There was plenty of outdoor seating as well.Tucked away in Montecito, in a quiet neighborhood. I only wished I had gotten a latte there as I am guessing if it was anything like their food, it would have been a real treat.
