@centralcoastarchives: MARGIE’S DINER — A SALINAS MEMORY 🍳☕️ If you grew up in Salinas, California, there’s a good chance you remember this place. For years, Margie’s Diner on Kern Street was one of those familiar local spots that felt like it would always be there. A place to grab breakfast, sit down with family, meet up with friends, or simply stop in for a good meal and a cup of coffee. And then one day… it was gone. There doesn’t seem to be a clear answer for exactly why the Salinas location closed, but one thing is certain: the memories didn’t close with it. Back in the day, for many Salinas families, it was places like Margie’s Diner or Hometown Buffet — those were the spots you remember from another time. The kind of restaurants that became part of growing up in the Salinas Valley. Today, Margie’s is just another piece of Salinas history. But if you remember it, you know it was more than just a restaurant. ❤️ Did you ever eat at Margie’s Diner? What did you always order? 🍳🥓🥞☕️ Did you work there?
