Guidebook for Monterey
Food Scene
It's the best breakfast place around where you can sit outside and take your dogs too. We split the Hawaiian Egg Crepe with the home potatoes and muffin then we have them bring us a Belgian Waffle with whipped crème fraiche and fresh fruit when we're just about half way through.

The Mushroom Artichoke Enchilada is outstanding and the fresh chips and salsa are fabulous! Been going the for 18 years and still look forward to taking friends there. Walking two blocks to the ocean is great too. Should call for reservations

The Tor House isn't really a museum but is a must see if you like history and stories. As a writer he built the entire place out of stones. I love the tower he built for his wife to have a quiet place.

Drinks & Nightlife
They are a secret local favorite because of the rooftop bar! Great view and not crowed feeling even when full. Fire pits and heaters and the most gorgeous succulent garden.They cook the hors d'oeuvres right there on top next to the bar. It feels like we are in Europe again and have found a romantic quiet spot! Prices are very reasonable. Call to see if the rooftop is open it's weather sensitive.

Food is ok as far as Cannery Row goes but they have live music in the evenings on the weekends usually, and the location is centered so you are close to the parking garage, aquarium, shops and ocean etc.
