Schooners
Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa, 400 Cannery Row, Monterey | (831) 372‑2628, schoonersmonterey.com
Situated at the epicenter of old Cannery Row, Schooners would’ve been the go‑to place for the higher‑end clientele of madam Dora and her girls at the nearby Bear Flag. Perched along the shores of the Monterey Bay inside the charming Monterey Plaza Hotel, Schooners is the perfect intersection of land and sea. There is no better place to enjoy a seafood cocktail or an ice cold beer while sitting above the tidepools once combed by Steinbeck himself.
