The Study Hall - Isla Vista

Nice spot. Friendly staff.. love the ambiance. Will be back! Google is telling me my review is too short so I'll say, bathrooms needing attendance. You can thank Yelp for making me point that out.

Good watering hole. Boston fan bar? Decent crowd on a weekend night. Places to sit. Parking very easy. Would go again.

Wow sooo many good things to choose from. The hardest thing was choosing what to order. Everything we had was the perfect size and soooo flavorful. We ordered the cheesy tots, truffle Mac and cheese, fish tacos, chopped salad, and oxtail. We ended up ordering a second round of the fish tacos. Also greatttt customer service. My husband is very picky about customer service and he was blown away by the hospitality. Alex was a great server who was energetic and checked on us several times. We already plan on coming back to try those nachos!

Why is this bar still open during the COVID-19 pandemic when there is a statewide order for bars to remain closed. There are always creepy men sitting outside in the new patio area on Pardall staring at girls and catcalling. This place shows the worst side of Isla Vista.

The service was garbage, there was clearly a very drunk girl working who was not okay and the handsy older bartender was grabbing her. Very uncomfortable situation I placed through seeing this unfold. The bartender took a random pic of us just trying to get a drink so I have no idea what that was about. We had asked for a Jack and Coke and she gave us 1/5 of Jack and like 50% sprite and it wasn’t what we ordered. Definitely terrible service and location. Uncomfortable immediately. Would’ve put 0 stars so giving 1 star was charitable.
