May be good for burgers and fries, but the meatloaf are mashed potatoes were awful. Good atmosphere and good service.

Horrible 75$ worth of food! Cute place excellent service unedible food.The brown "gravy" as they called it stays with you (not in the way one would want) The grilled chicken wasnt cooked through, i could have chewed the chicken fried chicken like gum(for days)if only it tasted as good. Route 66 diner checked if our bucket list‍. Old school diner ambiance. read more

our waitress was nice the only good qualit, when sited there was a cigarette butt under the table that should have been our sign to leave , but we ordered a burger and the meat was spoiled we had three people try it. None of us can swallow a bite. They took the burger back and the chef came out. and basically accused us of just wanting a free meal very despectfull when we where very polite . will not recommend! read more

This is a great retro diner that serves breakfast all day. They do have a lunch and dinner option if your not in the mood for breakfast. Price is reasonable and cheaper than other restaurants nearby. Definitely a good find and the word of mouth was the reason we had stopped in. Will be dining their again soon! read more

Food was great, service was outstanding. You don't see many diners like this anymore!

Took our order and never put in in. We waited for 25 minutes and asked but no apology. No idea what the food is like. Bad experience.

Saw the reviews and of course the name stood out. Walked in, didn't get acknowledged, for at least a minute. A lady came over and sat us down as she was standing there, trying to take out drink order she was playing with her hair. Then I watched her walk over to make our drinks did not wash her hands. Gave us our drinks, I was so disgusted. She then checked out a table, after they paid she did not wash her hands. We then watched her deliver another table their drinks, we watched her play with her mouth then proceed to take that hand to push their mug handle towards the customer. I was done! Methedup lady done ruined our day. We paid for the soda then left. Did not even try to order food!! read more

My experience at Route 66 Diner was splendid. Oksana opened the door for us after hours when she saw us outside taking pictures and allowed us in to take pictures inside. We promised to have breakfast there the next day which we did and it was delicious read more

We waited almost an hour for our food. The waitress did not refill our drinks until I got up and asked. Our food was mediocre at best. The burgers were okay but all of our meats were over cooked and dry read more

I stayed at the hotel right across from it and gave it a try, the food was really delicious their meals are well priced and will fill you up if not leave you satisfied. Also just the environment of the place is like a warm comfortable feeling. They music taste is great. They have a little mix of everything especially old school stuff. Just overall between the food, the workers, and the environment is a great place to eat. I've been there 3 times in 2 days when I stayed at the hotel. read more

The meatloaf dinner was delicious! Really enjoyed the oldies music playing. Will be back next time we are driving through for sure.

Umm... they charged us $3 for a orange juice. We looked at their menu and there wasn't much of interest. Oh... we ordered water and an orange juice and then found a ROACH under us on the floor. And not the little blunt. The nasty little insect. read more

Labor Day...only 1 waitress and 1 cook in the back. A few folks in front of us, but not many. Still around 45 minutes to get food on our order. Being short staffed is tough...but, should've closed for the day instead of having patrons wait so long for food. I'd pass if you are needing to get back on the road. read more

Awesome Diner with a very friendly staff. Stephanie was the sweetest waitress and took great care of us. read more

We visit here twice a year, when we stay at a nearby hotel on our drive home to Texas from Indiana. Every time we have visited, we have had an enjoyable breakfast -- in the past I have really enjoyed the corned beef hash, the pork tenderloin, and the ham and eggs. But the crown jewel was always the biscuits and gravy -- the biscuits have always been fresh and tasty, and the cream gravy nice and hot and fresh. Until this past Saturday. I wasn't as hungry as normal, so I just ordered the Special Country Breakfast with Bacon... The bacon was good. The eggs, ordered scrambled, were over easy. I'm OK with that, a simple mistake, and I ate them. They weren't great. Something was off. The biscuits and gravy were, surprisingly, unappetizing. Four pucks of biscuit covered with a lukewarm paste. It was awful. I was never asked how my meal was. The manager looked frazzled, and I think they were shorthanded. I'd like to think that they were simply having a bad day. I didn't make a fuss. People around me were enjoying their meals (I think) and I didn't want to be "that guy." If it weren't this place, which I have really enjoyed in the past, I'd simply never return after that meal. But I want to like this place again. I've had great breakfasts here in the past. I gave two stars here because, shame on me, I've never reviewed the great meals that I've had here in the past. But this was definitely a one-star experience. So if the manager or owner is listening to this, here's what I'm going to do. We will be back in December or early January. I will order the biscuits and gravy again. And I want to be amazed. I want to have the best diner breakfast I've ever had. And, full disclosure, my 9 year old son wants me to say that he really enjoyed his pancake and bacon. So, there's that. read more

St. Roberts, Missouri --- "Route 66 Diner" is my least favorite of the many diners I have visited. ... the food was blah (bacon not crisp, hash browns not "brown'd" enough to heat completely, & toast was not even hot enough to melt warm butter) messin' up a hot breakfast takes a bit of an effort, in my opinion p.s. consider the "Country Cafe" as an option I personally would not recommend this eating experience "Run-A-Way Bill" was here! 09/20/15 read more

Don't come here if you plan on ordering anything other than breakfast food, burgers, and fries. Otherwise, this place is god tier when it comes to diner food and breakfast skillets. Let's start with their burgers. I don't think words can describe how addicted I am to their Blue Moon Burger. This monstrosity is so succulent when complimented with the right amount of blue cheese crumbles and their special sauce and cheese! I can only imagine the heart attack awaiting me if I ate it everyday for a week. So good!!! And the fries!!! So many fries with the burger meals!!! Hand cut thick crunchy fries! Hell yes!!! Their standard breakfast meals are on par with Cracker Barrel, but I think their breakfast skillets are what make their menu shine. A heaping serving of roasted potatoes in a skillet loaded with cheese, herbs, and whatever meat of your choice. Never has becoming fat gotten so much easier. I would honestly give this place 5 stars if they made their non-burger and non-breakfast dishes a bit more flavorful. Otherwise great food, good service, and try to eat there during their happy hour if you also want to enjoy a beer! (Otherwise it gets pricey) read more

Food, service, and ambiance was impeccable. Staff was very attentive and friendly. I asked for scrambled eggs hard and bacon crispy and everything was cooked to perfection. read more

Everything was great, I had the Slinger and my wife had the Country Fried Chicken and Eggs! The service was fantastic especially since there was only one waiter and it was slammed! Our only complaint was the food wasn't hot but it was delicious! Glad we stopped! read more

We were in town just for a few days for my son's military graduation and found this cute affordable and great place to relax and eat. The menu had a really large selection and the place was friendly and very clean. I would highly recommend it. read more

I don't know if it was just an off day but I was not too impressed with my veggie omelet that I ordered this morning. The egg was over cooked and the home fries were not very good either. Our waitress was friendly, but was a little slow on checking in on us with what we needed. It seemed like they were all a little unorganized. However, I did like the old school diner feel. read more

When I see an diner from the past, I had to check it out to see if they live up the repatriation! I had the chocolate shake- beautiful taste made by the old milkshake machine I love that!

Great themed diner! Loved it! Great burgers and fries! Cannot wait to go back! They serve breakfast all day, which is nice. They have the standard 50's fun food like burgers, fries, and shakes. read more

Sat down today on a Sunday afternoon to get a nice breakfast. Had the pork tenderloin with the eggs and hash browns and toast. Poured ketchup over the fries and took a bite only to taste a very spoiled almost alcoholic taste from the ketchup. Therefore all our fries were ruined. Ate into the pork tenderloin which looked like extremely dry and deep fried chicken. Completely and very unappealing. Roast beef sandwich also very dry and not fresh at all. Extremely disappointed. Chile soup was very watery and meat was not fresh. Not a good experience. Will not return. Fries in itself were very fresh though. read more

It's starting to show its age and quality kinda wavers a bit. Still has all the whacky clientele as ever, but maybe that will score some entertainment points if you're used to a waffle house to end the evening/morning. read more

Stopped at this amazing diner with decor from the 50's. Loved the music playing on the jukebox. read more

I went here on Easter afternoon around 3pm. I honestly thought it was closed because there was only 1 car in the parking lot, but to my pleasant surprise they were opened. I was the only customer at the time, so I just sat at the bar area. I was greeted immediately by a nice waitress, and the service was fantastic throughout my meal. I ordered the country fried steak, mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. My meal came out quickly, and when I say they smoother everything in gravy, that's an understatement. But, I love gravy! However, if you don't want your food swimming in it, I would recommend asking to light gravy, or getting it on the side. The portion was absolutely enormous. The country fried steak was great, mashed potatoes average, veggies average, but the roll included was pretty bad. However, Let's be real, I had no room for a roll anyways. I would absolutely go back. read more

Just OK. We dropped in for lunch because it was close to hotel. Basic diner menu and decor of. 1950's diner. Prices were NOT 1950's so u should expect to drop about $15 per person including tip. I ordered a Reuben (sort of my standard "go to" sandwich) and it was just OK. Service was fast and average. We did have a great conversation with a group of Australians who were on a Route 66 bus tour from Chicago to LA, but I wouldn't expect they will still be there when I read this. I'd like to go 2 Stars here but can't really say anything bad. Probably you are better off going to Cracker Barrel right next door. Same price better food. read more

I was very pleasantly impressed. I had the Cadillac meatloaf and it was the best restaurant meatloaf I've ever had. The ambiance is 50s. Not spectacular but it's a feel good experience. It's a great value! read more

Fantastic food and even better customer service. Just what you would expect from a diner. Cold night with great food and good people. Atmosphere is a 50's diner feel. Very clean and nice inside. read more

I saw the reviews and had to try this place. My family and i love the way the diner is set up. Very vintage. We ordered and the food came out pretty quick. We all ordered the chicken fried steak, came with eggs, potatoes or hash browns, and toast or biscuit. The food was surprisingly delicious. The portions are huge! The biscuit is to die for!!! It's so buttery and fluffy. To top it off we ordered pumpkin cheesecake, original cheesecake, and apple pie for dessert. We are very satisfied. The prices are very reasonable. read more

Slow seating, no silverware without having to ask. Only two servers and dirty tables needing to be bused. Asked for appetizers and recieved them with our meals. Quesadillas had no flavor and semi cold. Fries were hard. Not quality service and not quality food. read more

This was a super pleasant surprise! We came off the road, riding Route 66 from Chicago to LA. Walked into a Waffle House a little ways away but still weren't seated after 5 minutes. I remembered seeing this diner right off the highway so we headed back there. Wow, what a great place! Very friendly employees, tasty, reasonably-priced food and a clean, fun environment. The coffee was good and the breakfast portions large. I truly enjoyed this place and would absolutely recommend it. Bonus: They cater to military and there were a few service members enjoying breakfast at the time. read more

I stopped by here on a road trip with my mom, nieces, and 9 month old son. Food was good and everyone liked what they had. My mom said her pork tenderloin was one of the best she had and I really enjoyed my reuben. The waitstaff were the best. They were so kind and helpful. I also picked up some bottles of root beer and blue raspberry soda to take on the road! Highly recommend! I hope to stop here again when I am in the area. read more

This is exactly what you would expect from the name. The place is clean and staff is friendly. The menu is typical grill style, with just enough grease to make it yummy. The juke box at the front door sets the theme with 50s music. It's off the main drag and a little difficult to find, nestled between hotels. read more
