Great little surprise here! We were seated right away and it didn't take long to recognize this is a family business, and all hands were on deck this morning. The young lady got our drink orders right away and gave us enough time to look over the menu. The menu, by the way, is pretty cool. Unique names for their offerings so make sure you really read what it is you're ordering. Anyone can serve large portions, but making them so good you REALLY want to eat everything is another! Today, they did just that! I had the steak and egg breakfast and the temp, char and seasonings were perfect. Rest of the family had other items and we all ate 'em up, it was that good. Servers and staff checked on us regularly and had a real pleasant conversation with the proprietor. This man taught his kids well; amazing little family there. The place has great decor for that area and a cool little gift shop. There's not a whole lot of choices in Seligman, but Roadkill Cafe is worth you giving them a try. read more

So we came to visit Seligman because it was on the news as a place you have to visit! I've heard of The Roadkill Cafe before so I had to stop. First thing you need to know is that staff was great! They kept checking on us in more like a team environment. Our waitress came by plenty but the other waitresses checked in on us from time to time, which was a nice touch. I asked the waitress to recommend something and she said the wings, so I went with it! Such a great suggestion, I got the Honey Hot wings. Not as hot right off the bat as I'm used to but it was a slow burn and they came around. The flavor was better than my favorite wing spot in Chandler, so I was super impressed! My wife got a chicken wrap and she devoured it. She never finishes her meals, she said it was so good! I couldn't believe it!!! This place was awesome, definitely a gem! read more

Love this place! I went there with my service dog and all the staff were professional. Unlike another business in town. My dog just sat under chair and didn't bother a soul. Thank you Road Kill we will be back and support you guys! read more

Sadly this was always our go to place when we are in town.. but no more.. 3 wks ago they appeared to update their menu..removed a lot of items including the Ruben.. and raised their prices out of control.. I understand with the recent fuel and food prices going up this was needed but $21 for a burger..$18 for a BLT is ridiculous and they left off the prices for drinks on the new menu.. trust me the food isn't that amazing for the high price increase. I guess this will become be a strictly tourist stop .. because the locals won't be able to afford to eat here anymore. read more

Love this place, great burgers, great sweet tea, great vibes and atmosphere. It's no wonder how this place is an icon on rt 66. I didn't even mention their sky high pies that I'm always too full to try. Great place. Is also like to mention we called in our order 30 minutes before they closed, we walked in 15 minutes pre closing and they were STILL so gracious. I was a chef after the army, we always HATE when people come in last minute, and i know it's the same everywhere, and they were still so nice and just said cmon, we got you. Love that, I'll always go when I'm in the area. read more

An iconic roadside restaurant and bar nestled off route 66. There are slim pickings in this town for some good grub, but The Roadkill Cafe does a great job. I have the particular experience of being a vegetarian. And I tend to get a little awkward at steakhouses and the like. I ordered the garden salad, which was MASSIVE. And the cheese crisp, which was also MASSIVE! Both were delicious, and I'd order them again in a heartbeat. This place is really cool, even with all the taxidermy on the wall! My bartender was fabulous, and the ambiance was warm and cozy... again... even with all the taxidermy haha. Worth a stop! read more

Very good stop! The food was fresh and tasty. I liked the Elk Melt, lots of tender meat, plenty of veggies, and just the right amount of cheese. The pies are enormous! We had the Coconut Cream. The crust was very flaky and really made the pie. The coconut filling was delicious. My only fuss is that the cream was Cool Whip. The staff were nice, but a bit under staffed. read more

While on vacation, we drove from Arizona to Las Vegas, and stopped at this Cafe along the way. This was a cool spot. It was very interesting to see the historic route 66, and all of the unique stores along this road. We loved the vibe of this café. Every meal has a roadkill twist to its name. The staff were friendly too. We came for breakfast / brunch, so we tried these types of food from here. We ordered the chicken fried steak, hungry man breakfast, and biscuits with gravy. Everything tasted great. We definitely get large portions of food here. No complaints from us lol. The chicken fried steak was crispy, and had great flavors and seasoning. The perfect breakfast. The hungry man one the a cool mix to enjoy too. Loved the biscuits and gravy combination. Overall, a nice scenic cafe this was. read more

Great cafe! A friend recommended trying the bison and elk burger. My husband and I accepted the challenge. The bison burger was definitely more Smokey flavor compared to the elk. Both were tender and juicy, medium rare is the way to go. They offered seasoned fries so I jumped on that opportunity. Food came out hot and delicious. Bartender was very responsive and friendly had some great laughs and conversations. I'm a sucker for banana cream pie and man did the roadkill cafe deliver. The pie slices are massive. read more

Stopped in while on a roadtrip. Service was friendly. Ambiance was very rustic and outlawish. Theres alot of historic memorabilia on the walls. The food was really good. I had a breakfast burrito and the salsa and chorizo took the show. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a tasty bite. read more

I have to say I absolutely love this place. I have not stopped in a long time. But this was worth the stop. I was greeted my a young man named Aaron and being I was by myself he asked if I would prefer to sit in the saloon. Which sounded great and I sat at the bar. He mentioned they had a catfish special and that sounded great. I was greeted by a very nice gal named Lindsey who took my order and served me a cold Modelo as I waited for my food. We made conversation and another local sat near by and we talked some. My food arrived and was very tasty. I mean catfish in Seligman Arizona? How good could it be? Very good in fact. Perfectly cooked and the fries were very good as well. Some more locals came in and we had a fun time. Linsey is a great bartender. I highly recommend visiting her. I was on my way to the Ganado area of Arizona and had been driving all day from Northern Nevada. So this was a great stop. It very clean and welcoming. read more

On the road so we decide to stop and have dinner here. We were very impressed with the menu selections and overall decor inside. The staff was friendly and attentive, food good and souvenier shop inside is great. We wish we would of just split a dinner plate so we could try some of their pies and/or cakes, but unfortunately we were just too full. Overall, we had a very good experience and definately will stop again if we are passing through the area. read more

What an amazing meal. Well, technically it was two meals and a snack. We were passing through on RT 66 and this place looked like everything we wanted. The inside is fun and kitschy and bright and comfortable. We waited a few minutes to sit down and another few minutes to order, but once it was our turn the service was great. The menu has fun and silly names for what are pretty standard selections. I forgot the name of our appetizer but it was the quesadilla open-faced. Perfect and delicious. Our entrees were overwhelmingly large. The Reuben was good but the burger on texas toast with crunchy onions as a garnish was super memorable. The burger was thick and juicy...none of that smash burger stuff. The seasoned fries and Cole slaw were ok but the sandwiches more than made up for it. We brought home dessert to go with our leftovers, and wow. The carrot cake and the German chocolate cake are both clearly scratch made with high quality ingredients. It was not cheap but again, high quality food is worth the price. Do not hesitate. read more

This is a must stop when on route 66 Arizona....Located on the seligman part of the route. This is (IMHO) the stereotypical roadside diner. Nice cozy small town hospitality with good comfort food at a fair price. inside is airconditioned and has a cowboy western theme (wooden tables and chairs and alot of western deco) We went with the roastbeef and it was big enough to split and it was very tasty....I am sure all their menu items are good home like cooking ..The staff was cool and friendly......This is a must visit place because of the experience.... read more

Passing thru on route 66 otw to grand canyon. Hungry. Found this roadside cafe. The name is interesting. Parking: plenty free spaces Restroom:2 individual restroom gender neutral restrooms There's 2 section you can dine in at, the saloon and regular dining area. We ordered: Club sandwich Chicken wrap Not bad, pretty fresh. They charge you convenience fee for using credit card. They also charge you $1.99 if you share. The guy that served us was very nice and friendly, unlike the lady. read more

Food was good but the server basically threw it in front of me and left without offering silverware or a napkin. When the average plate costs $17-$19, you'd think they could drop the food off with a smile and something to eat it with. read more

The Roadkill Cafe - BLT - American Near Me - Seligman, Arizona

We were on a road trip from San Francisco to Chicago. After reviewing online and with the recommendations from our motel host and neighborhood around, we decided to come to the Roadkill Cafe. From what i was told, great meaning, great food, great atmosphere and great services. However, all were good but the services. We went on a weekday night, house was about 1/4 full, there was a waitress kept staring at us repeatedly without greeting us or seat us for about 15 mins, who happened to be our server later on. After seated, we weren't greeted, straight to asking for drink orders after another 15 mins. I ordered a cocktail, not quite satisfied. We ordered wraps, racks of ribs, steaks, sandwiches. We asked for recommendations, no answers. Some entrees came with salad, i asked for dressing options, she just mentioned it's on the menu. The server, named Lindsay, which we learned the name from some others later on, didn't check on us at all, ever when i raised my hand and called for services. Seems to me that she avoid any eye contacts nor approaches to our table. After our minimal requests such as extra plates, dressings were fulfilled by other servers/managers, Lindsay finally came to us to ask if everything was ok when we were about done with our meal. At the end of the meal, I tried to make some causal conversations with her about the neighbors recommendation, as i talked about it half way, she rolled her eyes and walked away... I have been in the hospitality business for over 20 years myself, and this is one of the worst service or attitude i have ever experienced as a customer or as a career. Management and other floor employees were nice, but just her i have hard time understanding. It seems to me that everyone around her had issues with her. But it's a small town with barely over 700 populations, so i guess everyone is everyone's friend. I don't want to get anyone in trouble, but i still want to speak out my experience with this place. Again, great food, great atmosphere, unique menu, which all names of the dishes are eyes widening. Just that single server who put an X to our experience in this dining. As for dining experiences, as long as it's not fast food; services, especially for higher end dining in town, counts more than food quality itself. This restaurant actually has what it got to shine in the town, but may need more work on picking the front house employees, even though choice maybe limited in a small town with only hundreds of residents. Best of luck! read more

I wanted to stop here as I'm a Route 66 fan. This is a neat looking restaurant. Rustic but clean. I ordered the patty melt with fries. I've probably had a hundred patty melts in my life and I'm not sure I ever had a better one. Really high quality burger cooked perfectly. The bread was grilled to perfection. Bummed that I'm too full for pie. Next time. read more

Very friendly wait staff. Great souvenir gift shop. I was so excited because I found a bottle that had the dry ingredients to make a Chardonnay cake which I bought, and I cannot make in the near future. I also bought a zip up hoodie that had the vulture from old crows with the Route 66 emblem on it as well. The only thing I was disappointed with is I ordered hamburger steak and it was a little overcooked for my liking. But other than that, the service, the food, and atmosphere was absolutely great. I highly recommend stopping there to eat. OH!!!! AND don't forget to go visit the bar in the back next to the gift shop. read more

The service was great but food was not. I could have done without this stop. You can decide.

My husband I stopped here while on a tour with Laughlin Tours. Gotta admit walking in I was a little worried but then I quickly became intrigued by the uniqueness and charm of this spot located right on Route 66. The service was great and the food was just as you'd think a roadside Café should be. It was a unique experience and I'm glad we stopped by. I recommend it for anyone that is looking for something that is different and unique and on route 66 great photo opportunities, etc.. read more

We stopped in for supper after a day at the Cavern. I had the chicken wrap and my husband had the elk burger. Both were yummy. The fries were well seasoned and the Chipotle mayo way good but not spicy. But, my favorite was the chocolate cream pie. Absolutely amazing. Our server was friendly and attentive. She took great care of us. read more

I ordered a chicken wrap with crispy chicken. The waitress advised me that they only had grilled chicken and asked If that would be ok. I said yes. What I got was basically a soggy salad wrapped in a tortilla, due to runny Ranch dressing. I pulled out the soggy lettuce to find only a few pieces of "grilled chicken" with the texture of previously grilled and frozen chicken, with no taste whatsoever. When the waitress asked how everything was, I replied that the wrap was mostly lettuce. Her response..yeah, the wraps have a lot of lettuce. No offer to replace it with something else. For $17.99, they need to do much better, or at least, call it what it is, a salad wrap. read more

This was our main reason we decided to "get our kicks on Route 66." From the get-go we were in for a treat as we were seated and began the "roadtrip" thru the menu. I ordered the Hungry Man meal consisting of pancakes (light and heavy-fluffy), Home Fries (sturdy squares of filling goodness), scrambled eggs with cheese (scrambled somehow different, whipped-up with a combo of love, care and commitment). The bacon; also better tasting than usual...the sausage was good too. Jamie acted as the ringleader through our whole breakfast; staying up on our drinks and recommending for dessert the German Chocolate Cake and the Apple Pie A LA Mode (the best I've ever tasted). Roadkill Cafe is also chock-full of souvenirs for purchase and great picture opportunities, both inside and outside. The unisex bathrooms were clean and had baby-changing tables. Highly recommended! read more

The name says it all--Roadkill. That should've been my first clue. I ordered the Tire Tread Buff (Buffalo Burger) and was told it would be cooked medium--perfect. The waitress asked what kind of cheese I wanted, and I requested the raw onions be grilled since I don't eat them raw. When the burger came out, it was so overcooked it was barely chewable. I had to send it back. The second attempt was slightly better, but still dry and well past medium. Then came the bill. What should've been a $19.99 burger somehow rang up at $23.99. I was charged an extra dollar for the cheese and two more dollars just to have the onions grilled. Not cool--especially since the waitress never mentioned any upcharges. My friend's burger was no better--cooked way past well done, basically beyond recognition. Overall, a disappointing experience read more

This was unfortunately a low point and a rare mistake on an otherwise fun Arizona vacation. My chum and I stopped over here on the way to Williams (basically a mini side trip up from Phoenix that went through Prescott - not recommended. Nothing over there and it's not worth it). I have a weakness for eccentric/weirdly named establishments, so I had my eye on this place for probably the wrong reasons, admittedly. I don't think there's a nice way to say this, but Seligman is pretty much a dump. I encountered quite a few Arizona locals in subsequent travels within the state, and ALL of them mentioned meth when describing it. This is not a place you intentionally go to visit; it's a place you stop at for a bathroom break or something on the way to or from Vegas or Los Angeles. We walked around for about 20 minutes after the meal, and it was stunning how rundown the residential houses on this touristy stretch of Route 66 are; literally 80% of them look condemned. Pretty bleak stuff. The interior décor of Roadkill is pretty much as advertised - it's A LOT of taxidermy. I didn't get the impression that the stuffed deer covering the walls had been killed on the road/in the line of duty, but that might be a pretty big ask. I thought it was a little weird how the staff went out of their way to brag that the owner of the establishment had killed all of the animals on the wall themselves (and there's an odd display by the bathroom with pictures of him beaming proudly next to corpses) but your mileage definitely might vary on that. It feels weird to say this, but both of us were disappointed that this place didn't actually have something at least mildly exotic on the menu, given its name. I was expecting a weird type of animal meat to sup on, but it's just normal food with roadkill-esque menu names. If I were them, I'd try to get rattlesnake or gator or something like that - you can literally get a hamburger anywhere. I opted for the buffalo burger, which was the edgiest entrée I could find. It was okay, though obviously a pre-made, frozen patty and on the greasier side. It came with steak fries, which were a little undercooked for me at least. On the positive side, we both thought everyone was incredibly nice and hospitable. We sat at the bar near the gift shop (pretty legit one for what it's worth, with a lot of variety in terms of the offerings - I bought a shirt for my father that I know he'll be wearing proudly), and the bartender was very pleasant. I was just drinking water, but the service was perfectly fine on all counts. I don't recall having to wait long for anything during our meal, and it was a chill enough vibe where we both separately wandered off the bar stools to look around and possibly pose next to dead moose while we waited for our food. I didn't know this until after my Arizona adventures, but Route 66 has touristy stuff pretty much all the way through the state. Based on what I saw, I would absolutely bypass this stretch of it and focus on Williams and Flagstaff - much better options as you travel east. read more

2 stars for the creativity of the cafe and the decor. The food and service were marginal. We ordered mini chimis and a French dip and probably the worst French dip we have ever had. The bun was very dry and hard, the French fries were dry and hard. The mini chimis were pretty good. However, it took forever to get our food and the drinks were even later and we had to ask for them. read more
