Begin at the National Steinbeck Center, leave time for Main Street shops, then plan lunch at a local kitchen. The Steinbeck House is a separate stop on Central Avenue; confirm its restaurant and tour schedule before adding it. Ariel Theatrical and the Fox Theater require checking the current performance calendar.
