Barmel
4214 San Carlos St., Carmel-By-The-Sea
626-3400
What does the millennial generation—the 30-somethings and younger-somethings of the world—like to do for a night out? Let loose and boogie down, of course. Since opening about two years ago, Barmel has drawn Generation Y like a magnet. A small stage packs them in for groovy local and touring bands and gifted DJs from Thursday through Saturday. Lightning-fast hands mean timely drinks. Underrated food from star Chef Brandon Miller adds depth and sophistication. Millennials aren’t the only ones who enjoy Barmel, however—the bar’s vibe caters to all ages for some real top-notch, cross-generational good times.
