Whether you’ve lived in Salinas your entire life, are a recent transplant, or a visitor passing through, Cardinale Mazda Salinas encourages you to visit The Steinbeck House and Restaurant, located at 132 Central Avenue in Salinas, California. A historic landmark, this is the ancestral home of famous American author, John Steinbeck. Literature buffs may know Steinbeck for his literary works including The Grapes of Wrath, The Pearl, Cannery Row, The Red Pony and Of Mice and Men, just to name a few.
Take The Steinbeck House Tour
Even if you are not a literary aficionado, you’ll still enjoy this historic home’s architecture and preservation. Transport yourself back in time into the early 1900s as you tour the home. Many of Steinbeck’s fiction novels were set in the Depression era. Staffed by volunteers, they’ll gladly regale you with stories about John Steinbeck and his writings. It’s a cathartic educational opportunity to steep yourself in the late author’s most intimate surroundings.
Come And Plan To Stay For Lunch
Treat yourself to lunch in the Steinbeck Restaurant that is right there on the grounds of The Steinbeck House. Serving American fare and featuring local fresh produce, you’ll find that the food is excellent. The ambience is lovely and the staff is friendly. They also have afternoon teas which are quite popular. Reservations are recommended, as it is frequented by tour buses.
