Rincon Brewery’s outpost in Santa Barbara’s Funk Zone is set to close following its final night of operation. Rumors suggest that South Coast Deli may take over the space.
Rincon Brewery, a local craft beer establishment, is shutting down its location in the Funk Zone area of Santa Barbara after tonight, according to reports from Siteline. This closure marks the end of operations at the outpost, which has been a part of the neighborhood's vibrant food and beverage scene.
Speculation is circulating that South Coast Deli, known for its sandwiches and salads, plans to occupy the vacated space. One reader commented on the potential move, expressing enthusiasm: "South Coast Deli going into that space would be awesome since I go to their other locations about three times a week." However, the commenter also raised concerns about parking challenges in the area, noting issues with yellow and red zones near other locations like Carrillo Street.
The Funk Zone, a popular district for dining and entertainment, continues to see shifts in its business landscape. While details on the closure remain limited, this development aligns with other recent changes in Santa Barbara's restaurant scene, though specifics for Rincon Brewery were not elaborated beyond the immediate shutdown.
