The Barns at Cooper Molera offers a perfect blend of rustic elegance and history. Originally dating back to the early 1800s, we just opened our doors from a renovation upgrading this beautiful property to expand and enhance visitors' experiences. Combine that with the vibrancy of being in the heart of downtown Monterey, exceptional cuisine and unforgettable service provided by Classic Catering of The Events by Classic Group.
The Barns is destined to become the ideal location for wedding ceremonies and receptions, corporate events, business meetings, and community events - our beautifully renovated barns and manicured grounds set the tone for a truly unique event. Corporate Events at The Barns is not just another shuttle to food and drink, it's history, it's an experience, and it's close to your hotel.
Dating back to 1827, Cooper-Molera Adobe represents a layered history as the political and commercial capitol of what was Mexican Alta, California before the development of the State of California.

In 2001, after having gone through an "experience" during their own wedding, Dean & Debbie Young decided they could do it better for other couples and started their own catering business, Classic Catering (now collectively The Events by Classic Group).
While the company continues to grow, and currently has 14 full time employees and over 65 part time service staff, the core of the company is still solidly rooted in Debbie & Dean's initial mission to make the event process a pleasurable one, and last year our "Village" did just that for over 150 weddings and 100 corporate and social events.

Downtown Monterey is a mecca of cultural and historical diversity.
Its landscape combines the images of Monterey's past and present.
The main street of downtown Monterey is Alvarado Street and sitting on the far south end of Alvarado is the Cooper Molera Adobe that has beginnings back to the early 1800s.
Inside the wall are the historic barns and event center grounds, a warehouse that will become a restaurant, a space that was actually a bakery long ago will again become a bakery, and the original two adobe homes that are open to the public as a museum.
