Eating Salem: An Edible Road Trip

Bambolina – Meiling B

Think Salem's just for ghost hunting and Halloween chicanery? Witch, please. There are some serious eats in this port town, and the Local Yelp is taking you through a day of dining in the City of Peace.

Red’s Sandwich Shop 320 reviews 15 Central St, Salem, MA Sandwiches, Breakfast & Brunch “A giant omelette with meat runs you like six bucks and comes with four slices of toast and more home fries than you'll know what to do with. The value is unreal, and the ambiance kicks butt, too. Old-timey diner feel in a historic Salem building.” Harry B., Salem, MA

A & J King Artisan Bakers 203 reviews 48 Central St, Salem, MA Bakeries “If you're looking for a nice place for a quick breakfast or afternoon pick-me-up, A&J is a good option... I've tried both the almond croissant and frosted cinnamon bun, and both were very tasty.” Christina M., Medford, MA

Bambolina Restaurant 89 reviews 288 Derby St, Salem, MA Pizza, Italian “The clam chowder pizza was super memorable, and the mushroom pizza was so truffle-y and fantastic. The soppressata was a classic, and made even more delicious with the addition of the chili oil that was served with the pizza.” Alyssa B., Salem, MA
