Dine website:
The 66 Diner is dedicated to preserving the spirit of the
roadside diner along Route 66. Our recipes come from Mom and Dad,
brothers, sisters, friends and neighbors (except for Ernie's liver
and onion recipe...which he forced on us). Our food is always fresh
and always the absolute best we can offer. If you have a tastier
recipe, bring it in and let us try it! If we decide that we like
yours better, we'll put it on the menu (we're not proud) and we'll
treat you and three of your friends to dinner. Our food, service
and decor are all a very special part of the homeage we pay to a
vanishing part of America's history.... Route 66.
In 1987, the former Phillips 66 gas station located on this site
was converted into a diner. In 1995, the original diner burned to
the ground, and only portions of the foundation were saved. The
owners rebuilt the diner to retain the nostalgic look and
atmosphere of the original.
