Test Pilot is a "tiki-inspired" craft cocktail bar in Santa Barbara. It opened in September 2016.

The decor is tiki-lite, with just a few tiki masks on one wall. The walls are painted turquoise, and there is a light beachy feel to the space.

The drinks, some served in tiki mugs, are modified versions of tiki cocktails, and some originals.

They have an excellent selection of rums and a strong bar program.

*NOTE: You can reserve the Sea Wolf Room (see last 2 photos) for yourself and your friends as a space for group gatherings, meetings, and parties.
