Midpoint Cafe

Best double cheeseburger ever! I stopped for the “pies” because I’ve heard how wonderful and tasty they are. (And pick up Route 66 souvenirs) just from seeing what other diners ordered you can see all the food is good! I literally was made to feel that my burger was created and made personally for me! Thick, juicy beef, the perfect bun and beef that tasted like actual beef, not filler or dry/over cooked. Prepared/served by wonderful people welcoming and making you feel at home! Nice ambiance, plenty of items in the gift shop and a good place to take a break from the road!

Family friendly restaurant. The ladies are so friendly and accommodating. They welcomed us with their warmth smile and had a fun conversation with the owner/chef and their staff. There was a long wait to get our orders taken and serving our food because they are short staff just like any other small businesses but their souvenir shop and historic photo ops made us busy while waiting. Their menu is so simple and food was made with love! I had the best time dining here and they deserve more business! Do not hesitate to drop by in this diner even if you are only going to use their bathroom, check out their souvenir shop or take pictures, they love having people over. But of course they need your business too! So enjoy your meal here! I heard their pie is good and its homemade. It was soldout when we were there but will definitely come back on my way home after my road trip.

Great location and even greater people! The burgers were huge and tasty! The ambiance is a whole vibe! I would recommend a stop ten out of ten times! After you eat, spend some time outside for photo ops!

This is a wonderful establishment and a must stop along Route 66 for good food, service and history !!! The food is cooked fresh and the pies are just delightful. There is a small gift shop with a variety of Route66 memorabilia to choose from.
I cannot say enough good things about the food and the two wonderful ladies that work so very hard to make your experience a great one !!!

Great place to stop along the highway during your Route 66 trip! More than just a kitschy 66 destination, Midpoint serves up one of the bigger double cheeseburger I’ve had, and the Black Bean burger was a welcome option for my vegetarian wife. Both were fantastic and reasonably priced! They don’t serve French fries, likely because there’s no deep frier, but offer a variety of bagged chips as a viable substitute. Catering to the few locals and travelers that stop by, the server was polite and caring, making sure we had everything we needed despite them being understaffed that day, like lots of other places these days. There’s a gift shop inside and plenty of photo ops outside, including a half way marker of Route 66 on the street and a sign. You definitely want to make this a stop on your historic trip down 66, or if you’re just hungry, because you’re sure to be satisfied.

I stopped in to buy a souvenir and was greeted by an awesome waitress who showed me around the restaurant and described all the nostalgia of the restaurant and surrounding area outside. She loved her job and her employer. The owner of the cafe also talked to me and is trying her hardest to stay open so I recommend this awesome place. You won’t be disappointed.

Lovely people who welcome you as soon as you walk through the door. Cafe was clean and had some really interesting things to look at, like an old dukebox. We opted for the mid-point burger - wow, it is enormous. Outside is the route 66 mid-point line, so lots of photo opportunities. Definitely recommend this cafe for a bite to eat or just a drink. There is also a gift shop attached which had lots to look at and purchase. You are under no pressure to enter the gift shop.

They had 1 waitress and 1 cook, and we had excellent service. The cook brought our food to our table. And talked with us for a while. Cook and waitress were both very nice. I'd recommend this place to everyone alive.

Must stop on a road trip, as it is located on the midpoint line on route 66, between Chicago and Los Angeles! Great food and the service is incredible, such friendly people there! The pies are out of this world and the decor is very american diner, so its great for pictures!

It was so cool and we didn't even go in! We were on our way from Gallup New Mexico and we're going to have plenty of time to stop and have what Shelby says is the best pie you could ever eat and what happens? We get a stinking flat tire right outside of Albuquerque! Uhg! So by the time we get there, it's closed! But we get some really cool pictures and my nose prints are still on the glass where I was looking inside, I actually got to take a picture of the inside and we got a picture at the midpoint sign! We were satisfied! I'll have to come back for pie!
