Smiley's Schooner Saloon was established in 1851 and has been in continual operation in the same stalwart and storied building since - and we've yet to find an older bar west of the Mississippi. Smiley's is well-known among musicians for the spirited crowd, and to music fans as a place to catch artists like Lukas Nelson, Sam Chase and the California Honeydrops. Check out our social media and website for our music calendar. And after a late night, there's no better revitalizer than the ocean at our doorstep, followed by our famous chilaquiles and Bloody Mary's.
