BLT
RyMil H.

This is such a cute little restaurant. I love the juke restaurant atmosphere. Definitely gives early 1950's vibes. Service was great. And the tables stayed clean and clear once a family left. No dirty dishes or food were left on tables. It gives the appearance that the restaurant is clean and presentable. The food was delicious. Everyone in my family enjoyed their plates. I ordered a BLT. They were not being greedy with the bacon! My son ordered a burger and it was huge! He said it was juicy and the Fries were crispy too! Thank you for being open on Thanksgiving Day. My son graduated bootcamp the day before and we had no plans for dinner the next day. We aren't from the area and didn't have a kitchen to cook a big dinner. So this was very much appreciated! We will be visiting again soon!

Route 66 Diner in St. Robert, MO, offers a classic diner experience, but it's showing its age. The atmosphere is nostalgic, but the interior could benefit from some updates. Despite the slightly worn appearance, my server was very friendly and efficient. I ordered the Tenderloin dinner with mashed potatoes and corn. The tenderloin was hand-breaded and served with country gravy, which was a bit unexpected as I hadn't read the menu description closely. While the gravy wasn't bad, it wasn't my preference. The mashed potatoes seemed homemade but were a bit dry. Overall, the meal was decent but not particularly memorable.

Burger and slaw.

A fun meal stop just off the highway. Architecturally, it mimics the old steel train cars that made the original breakfast-all-day and American comfort meal eateries. The menu here continues that, too. Our burger was a juicy third-pounder. A roast beef sandwich was made with excellent rye bread and came with homemade potato chips. Both meals were delivered quickly with efficient service for a busy holiday lunch stop.

Fun old time diner atmosphere just outside Fort Leonard Wood in Saint Roberts, MO. You can rely on typical diner faire made just like it was in the 60s. Good stop before heading over to the fort to see your son or daughter graduate from Army Boot Camp.

I went to the Route 66 Diner for dinner and had a wonderful experience! There were almost no cars in the parking lot so I was a little skeptical at first, but this diner did not disappoint. The diner takes you back to the 50s with all the interior decorations and music. The waitress I had was lovely and checked on me throughout my meal. I had the Route 66 Burger with fries. Although it was nothing to write home about, it was seasoned well and cooked to my liking. Just a classic American burger. This diner, however, I would say is more a go to for the vibe, and less about the food.

Dirty floor

The food was ok at best The service was slow and not very friendly The place needs a good deep cleaning.

The service is friendly and the place has its own charm in terms of decor. The food is pretty average for diner food. Good for families.

What a wonderful unexpected gem we came across!! The place is super cute, service is great, and…read morefood was really good. I had a cold brew and hubby had the copper tea. He had a turkey club and I had a turkey avocado sandwich on multigrain. For sides we had cucumber salad, potato salad, and mac & cheese. A word of surprise, the potato salad is served warm, but it was really tasty. The only disappointment was the mac & cheese, which was grainy and soup-like with very overcooked noodles in it. They had no discernible shape and almost seemed like egg noodles oddly enough. We enjoyed our drinks, sandwiches and salads very much.

Such a cute, cozy place. It was like stepping into a warm cafe in another land…read more I started with a seasonal latte that had hints of toasted marshmallows, cinnamon, and pumpkin. Followed by a Monte Cristo. The bread was so light and fluffy. The saltiness of the meat with the sweetness of the bread and sugar with a little spread of raspberry preserves delighted the tastebuds. The side of fruit was large and seasonally appropriate. You order at the counter, where I think the owner was taking the orders and the accent definitely sounded authentic German like the name of the restaurant. She was lovely. Everything is made fresh so sit back and relax and the dining area is designed perfect for that with couches, cozy chairs and comfortable seats at the tables. I looked up what the name means: "Drachenfutter" is also a term used to describe gifts or treats that someone might bring home for their significant other when they feel guilty about coming home late or drunk. True to the "gift" part of the name, you can take yummy homemade treats home with you and they do have a section of gifts you can buy. A nice gem of a place along Historic Route 66.
