The first time they told me children weren't allowed and then, most recently, they told my mother-in-law that they were going on lunch at 3 PM, and the kids had to leave, but then they never closed the store. This unwelcoming attitude doesn't build a strong buy local community. This is discrimination and it should not be tolerated in our downtown Salinas community. It is really disheartening that this kind of behavior is occurring.

I especially appreciate some of their unique gifts made just for that relative you hate, or for that mother in law who drives you crazy. Plus plenty of nice gifts for the nice relatives.

If you are into a fun experience with nice staff, this is a highly recommended place.

As surprising as it might seem to an outsider, Salinas has an adorable old town. Plagued as this…read moremodern farm town is with gang issues, they do have a few cute blocks of an old town. I took a break from driving down the 101 because of terrible traffic and found my way to old town. I went into Rooms In Bloom because I needed a nice Birthday gift for my Mother and this store seemed to have a very nice selection. This is right up her alley. I like a lot of the things too, but my style is a little more modern...and maybe funky? I got her a cute re-usable Lunch bag, and a tube of fancy scented hand cream, but I could have easily gotten a few more things like beautiful candles, a really nice tray, 3-wick candles, pajamas that were adorable, dishtowels, and more. If you're wondering, yes, my Mom is the sort of lady who loves to decorate her home, cook, and garden. It was hard to choose something on a budget, but the lady working was cute and nice and just let me browse without bothering me, but agreeing with me when I oohed- and-aahed over all the stuff. I also bought myself a couple of hair clips. I like stores that sort of divide their goods into themes or 'genres' and they do this here. I didn't have much time to browse the kids section, but they had a cute area of the store for children and babies. Perfect for shower shopping. Okay I think I said cute about 3 times in this review- do you get the point!? Also, it smells good!

Just wanted to share a little gem I found yesterday in downtown Salinas. There's a co-op store…read morecalled Downtown Gift Shops at 345 Main Street. Inside are little mini shop stalls where local business owners sell goods. Items range from homemade bath salts, jewelry, knit items, sewn items etc to vintage items, clothing and other gifts.

The Steinbeck Museum was a wonderful literary stop in Salinas. We also visited the Steinbeck House…read moredown the street, which made the experience feel more complete. As a tribute to Steinbeck and his connection to the area, the museum was thoughtful, engaging, and well worth the visit. I especially enjoyed the quirky gift shop, always a bonus when a museum shop has personality. The drive into Salinas was also unexpectedly lovely, with so many fields and vegetables growing. It gave the whole visit a strong sense of place and helped connect the landscape to Steinbeck's writing. A great stop for literature lovers, history fans, or anyone looking for something meaningful to do in the area.

Drove down from San Jose (1.5 hours) only to find the museum had closed early due to an event…read moredowntown. This closure wasn't listed anywhere on their website, and it looked like one of the workers was putting up the announcement when we got there around 2:30. I understand closing early for a special event, but not putting up any notice of reduced hours is completely unacceptable. No one there seemed to care at all

Also, Deb's products are well-made, smell amazing, and in my experience, are good for those that usually shy away from scented bath products. Having a teen with eczema has made it a challenge to find anything that they can use without a breakout. Deb's products have accepted that challenge and won with flying colors. My personal favorites are the bath bombs. Nothing beats a nice, hot soak after a day of running after the kids and driving the carpool.

This place rocks! So many local goods and goods from businesses around California. I was shocked at…read morehow large the selection was and how many brands I recognized. There were also a lot of smaller brands that I didn't recognize, so that was great too! They're just off the highway, but far enough in that if you weren't specifically looking for them, you probably wouldn't find them. I'm so glad I saw a video about them and went to check them out.
