What people say about Lucky Penny
It’s common for people to comment on the crackly blistered crust from the wood-fired oven, the relaxed Funk Zone patio, and pies that combine traditional pizza ingredients with some more creative ones. People enjoy the salads, cheese bread, frosé, and the salted chocolate chip cookies too. Some people like their pies with little char on them, while some like the blackened bubbles that result from the high heat cook, so it’s worth requesting a light bake if that’s what you want.
About Lucky Penny
Lucky Penny is a laid-back pizza place in Santa Barbara located in the Funk Zone that is distinguishable by copper pennies adorning its exterior walls. The restaurant uses a 900-degree hot wood-fired pizza oven, which produces pizza with a thin and crispy crust with a spotted texture typical for such cooking temperature.
The menu is varied enough so that it does not have to be visited only for the purpose of eating pizza but is not overly extensive. Salads, small dishes, dessert, beer, wine, and frosé allow building a casual meal on a picnic-style patio.
One doesn’t have to think of it as a place where one should go only for a fancy dinner. The place is especially convenient for a lunch, dinner, or even snack while visiting Anacapa street area and tasting rooms in the vicinity.
