–– Since we opened our doors in 2017, we’ve had weekly emails from our sweet customers returning to their homes and missing Oat in their lives. We think that’s a big testament to how much love we put into what we do. Now, 8 years later and 3 bakeries bigger, we can finally say that we are READY to share some Oat across the nation!!
We’re here to offer something different: bread and baked goods that are full of purpose, creativity, and nutrition. Whether it’s gluten-free, flour-free, nut-free, or packed with seeds and whole grains, everything we bake is designed to nourish and energize, without ever sacrificing flavor.
From the beginning, our vision has been clear: to be the healthier choice. As the world leans into wellness, sustainability, and clean eating, we’ve remained committed to creating baked goods that align with those values. We want to make healthy eating feel warm, welcoming, and deeply satisfying.
Since we opened our doors in 2017 it’s been a big part of our mission to be different from other bakeries. You won’t find baguettes, brioche or croissants on our menu, but you will find flavorful, savory and unique breads, nordic flavors, dense and hearty breads with whole grains, seeds and nuts and a menu changing with the seasons.
We’re still learning every day and growing alongside our incredible team of bakers. None of us are trained professionals, we’re all learning by doing and we think that’s what makes us so special.
We bake all of our bread fresh every morning starting at 6am. It’s important to us that each loaf, cookie or hygge bun is still warm from the oven by the time the first customer steps inside our doors.
Our breakfast and lunch menu is small and simple, just as it should be. Everything we offer is baked fresh and made with all of our favorite ingredients; french butter, farmstead cheeses, housemade ricotta, local jams and farmers market produce.
We love our farmers and all the beautiful, fresh produce we have access to in Santa Barbara. We change our menu seasonally and have a rotating farmers market bun using local ingredients such as fresh herbs, carrots, tomatoes, corn and greens.
One of the best parts of creating merch is teaming up with local artists and letting creativity lead the way. These sweatshirts—designed in collaboration with Santa Barbara’s own Demi Boelsterli—might be long gone, but they’ll always be some of our favorites.
