We ate here twice while in town last week. First visit a Rt 66 tour bus was there so it was packed…read moreto the gills. The staff was incredible. Talk about grace under pressure. They kept the orders coming and never lost their cool. Always friendly. I had 2 Cozy's and shared some fries. It was So good!! On the second visit two days later thankfully it wasn't so crowded. Unfortunately I had a disappointing chili cheese dog. The chili wasn't even warm enough to melt the shredded cheese on top. The dog itself was borderline mushy. I was really surprised because my spouse loves their hot dogs. Next time I'll stick with the Cozy dogs that are fried perfectly, the coating is a little sweet, the dog is delicious and huge!

Ed Waldmire Jr. had a vision…read more.... In 1949, Ed made a permanent place for his hot dog wrapped in yummy battered bread. This was a dream that came to pass after selling them for 15 cents in June of 1946 at the Springfield Beach House and fair prior. Now this is a Route 66 must eat. You must try a piece of the past. While Ed was at Knox College and then after the war he was ready to give this cozy cur "prior name," before his wife called that a "no go!" Hence we have a cozy dog, much better name truly! And my goodness be ready to be blown away. It's spectacular! Make sure and get your stomach and mind together it's time to get cozy . Plus the building has changed and become even better. In 1996 the building moved to where the past has become a little less crowded . Where the Abe Lincoln motel once stood is where Cozy Dogs are now . Plus the connection to Lincoln rub his nose for good luck. The Walgreens sits next door on the corner where Cozy used to occupy. Now it's time to get your very own Cozy Dog and see all the Route 66 fun you have been missing all these days .

I checked in and got a Yelp offer for a $2 slammer. Cool!…read more After walking down from the truck stop out on US-36, I was ready for a good meal. The restaurant sits at the corner, and it has 3 tables inside. During my visit, I was the only person who sat inside. Most customers were walk-ins and the took their orders to go. They have a walk-up window and a nice family stopped by as they took their dog for a walk. I would say the bulk of their menu consists of hot dogs and ice cream creations. With such a limited menu, I was still able to walk out a satisfied customer. Amanda was my pleasant server. I started off with a pulled pork sandwich and it was delicious. Still hungry, I tried a chili cheese dog. OK, my appetite was still there, so the cheese nachos finished off my meal. So what about that $2 Slammer? Even though I was full, and even though I know when to say 'when', I ordered the Slammer - it's like a Blizzard at another restaurant. It was very good. Both the exterior and the interior were well kept and clean. The ample size restroom was equally clean and well-kept. I recommend!

This Cree Mee picture is of the old Cree Mee. They closed down and reopened on the corner where an…read moreold bank used to be. They used to serve actual food but now they serve no more food than a gas station (hot dogs and nachos). The ice cream and shakes is pretty good. The quality of the ice cream is average at best but they are much too expensive for what they are. It is no longer a restaurant, it is a small room and should be considered more so an ice cream shop. It is a nice place to grab something cold to drink and eat in the summer. They are closed during winter, as is to be expected. Overall this is a nice place to get a small bite to eat.

Portillo's was such a fun stop on our Route 66 adventure! The Italian beef was flavorful and packed…read morewith toppings! The chicken tenders were the best I have ever had at a fast-food-type restaurant, and everything came out fresh and fast! I especially loved the atmosphere. The whole car-themed decor gives the restaurant such a fun, nostalgic feel, which fits perfectly with a Springfield Route 66 adventure. It feels like more than just grabbing a quick bite! You get a little taste of that classic road-trip nostalgia while you eat. Everyone was so friendly and ready to help us out too! My only complaint was that I wish they had thicker, sturdier straws for the malts and milkshakes. I had to wait for mine to melt so I could sip on it finally. I would totally come back to this fun spot anytime I get the chance and definitely recommend giving it a try!

My sister told me that we have to try Portillo's and I'm glad we did…read more I had their Char Grilled Maxwell Street Polish Sausage which was grilled to perfectly. It had lots of yellow mustard that I thoroughly enjoyed, and sliced grilled onions which added a delicate sweetness to every bite. The portions were very generous as well and the food was reasonably priced. They have a large menu of items to suit everyone's appetite. I also love the decor of the place. It was bright and colourful which made the experience so much more fun. If you listen closely when they say your order number, they add a rhyme to the end of it which was quite entertaining.
