Testimonials

On 3/12/2025 Rob Alaimo had this to say:
This historic location on Route 66 is a favorite of locals and travelers alike. Food is great and service is fast and friendly. Plus it’s within walking distance to Jubelts Bakery which is a must if you in the area.

On 3/7/2025 Carol Foreman had this to say:
On Route 66, across from The Litchfield Route 66 Museum and next door to a classic bakery. Walking into the restaurant immediately takes you back to an earlier generation with their chrome counter, cloth tablecloths, original signage and friendly staff. Large menu of home cooked meals including a large soup and salad bar offered with most entrees. Recommend the fried chicken. Lots of staff that eagerly engaged in conversation and made offers to take our groups picture.
