SUGGESTIONS FOR ROAD FOOD ALONG 66

 I’ve stopped at all but a handful of these Route 66 eateries and find the variety and regional flavor is exceptional. Every stop offers it’s own 66 experience.  Enjoy each place for what it is.   And remember the road is constantly changing.   These places may have new owners, be closed for the day, or even have a For Sale sign out front. Route 66 travelers are flexible, appreciative, and understanding! A few stops are off 66 by a few blocks or a few miles but well worth your time.   And remember that no traveler can locate every good stop along the Route 66 corridor so let me know about the treasures you find.
