Welcome to Jack's
Jack O’Neill kept life simple; he was into one thing — the ocean — and not much else.
As his namesake restaurant and lounge, we strive to keep that spirit alive. We focus on one thing — coastal cuisine done right — and we believe in making it as accessible as possible. We serve food honestly, the way Jack would’ve liked. When you work to those standards, everything else comes easy.

Santa Cruz, Through and Through
Jack loved Northern California for its beaches. We love it for its food, and for good reason too. Regional ingredients drive our menu: Our fresh-caught seafood meets the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch sustainability standards, our cage-free eggs come from the Glaum Egg Ranch, and our seasonal produce is sourced from a number of area farmers. It sets us apart from other downtown Santa Cruz restaurants; why go global when local does just fine?

Events + Music
Live music & local cuisine
Whether you’re a Santa Cruz local or simply hanging ten for the weekend, we invite you to join us for Live Music at Dream Inn’s Jack O’Neill Lounge. Sing and sway to some of the area’s top musicians each Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. Check out some of our holiday specials or monthly infused menus such as avocado week, strawberry week, or enjoy Jack’s signature cocktails and snack on our seasonal coastal bites.
Meet by the Sea
He may have been a surfing legend, but even Jack O’Neill could get down to business. Put a Santa Cruz spin on your next meeting in our private dining room; with space for 12 people and A/V capabilities, it’s an ideal venue for a focused breakout session.
