Roy’s Motel & Cafe

In the ghost town of Amboy, this beautifully kept landmark was for decades a popular watering hole for Route 66 travelers. If you believe the lore, Roy once cooked his famous Route 66 double cheeseburger on the hood of a '63 Mercury. Although the motel is abandoned, the gas station and store are usually open.

Roy's is owned by Albert Okura, creator of the Juan Pollo restaurant chain.
