★★★★☆ 4.0 Phillip Labossiere · Mar 2026

Fun spot, great atmosphere but the food was pretty average. Avoid the Frito pie it's 90% Frito chips 10% chili. The Burgers were average but tasty. The peachcobler was also average and forgettable. Come for the scenery, the ice cream and sodas and that's all

Enjoyed their grilled chicken sandwich. Later had their bacon and cheddar burger which was really delicious. Their milkshakes are remarkable and all at a reasonable price. Atmosphere is fantastic. Love the doo wop music. They gave out route 66 stickers for the centennial.

The 66 diner is great for families great for a first date or even an anniversary. They have a room u can reserve for a large party. And the food is sooooo delicious. They seem to make everything they can by hand. Even home made bbq suace for the chicken tenders. They also have very good burgers and fritz pie ! And dont even get me started on the deserts ! They make fresh pies and the banana spills are huuge!!! I have a family of 6 and we never finish it. I absolutely love this place. So nostalgic!! Everything is interesting and fun ! Even the ladies room is so cool. You need to try this place. Its a core memory for us.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Route 66 Diner in Albuquerque is such a fun stop! The atmosphere is classic and nostalgic, and it really captures the spirit of Route 66. The food was great, but the pie was the highlight—absolutely delicious. We loved everything about our visit and would definitely come back. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!
