Like other pizzerias, Rusty’s Pizza Parlor has many delivery customers as well as dine-in customers and you can use cash on delivery to pay for your order. As always, remember that pizzeria delivery drivers don’t carry a lot of cash and usually have about $20 in change so they can’t break large bills.
You can also use mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay to pay for your meal at its restaurants in both Santa Barbara and Bakersfield. Like a few other regional pizzerias, this restaurant has a website where you can order online but it doesn’t have any mobile apps. This might be because these apps are costly to develop.

Like most casual-dining pizzerias, Rusty’s Pizza Parlor doesn’t accept EBT. If you’re looking for an alternative, the regional pizzeria PizzaMan Dan’s has signed up for the Restaurant Meals program and you can use EBT for dine-in orders at its restaurants. There’s also one Round Table Pizza restaurant in Orange County where you can pay with EBT.
If you qualify for the RMP, you can also use EBT to pay at many quick-service restaurants such as Domino’s and Pizza Hut in Southern California. Fast-food restaurants are much more likely to accept this form of payment than casual-dining restaurants so it’s not unusual that Rusty’s Pizza Parlor doesn’t accept it.
