Blue Fin Cafe & Billiards
685 Cannery Row, Monterey
(831) 717-4280, www.bluefinbilliards.com
If the block of Cannery Row that houses Blue Fin were a pool table, the joint would command both of the top corner pockets. On the scorecard, this breaks down to an expansive billiards venue with 11 full-size tables and sweeping Monterey Bay views. Pool sharks will enjoy sinking their bank shots during the weekly nine-ball tournaments, and even table game-averse land lovers will find solace in the weekly salsa dancing nights. Stop by during happy hour Monday-Friday for deep discounts on beer and appetizers from the kitchen.
