What's open? Who's delivering? in the Monterey Bay

 

We’ve been working hard to put together a list of food & drink related small businesses in Monterey County (and a few in Santa Cruz County) that are open for takeout or delivery. The list is still a work in progress, but we want to go ahead and share what we have so far. The list is going to be constantly changing and we by no means have everyone on the list. That’s where we can use your help! Leave us a comment below if you know of a business we left out and what they are offering and we will update our list as soon as possible.

Local businesses are counting on our community to make it through this difficult time. Many have already had to close their doors. Consider purchasing gift cards as well to use once they are open for full service.
