I made a quick detour off I-40 at Exit 66 to visit the iconic Cafe 66, just five minutes from the…read morehighway and impossible to miss. From the outside, the branding leans heavily into the Route 66 identity--logos are everywhere, setting the expectation for a nostalgic roadside dining experience. Stepping inside, however, the atmosphere takes a different direction. Rather than embracing classic Americana, the décor feels modern, highlighted by whimsical cow artwork adorned with flower crowns. It's charming in its own way, but not the vintage Route 66 ambiance I was expecting. One thing that deserves high praise is the cleanliness. The café is immaculate, from the dining room to the overall presentation, reflecting a team that clearly takes pride in maintaining the restaurant. The food, unfortunately, was less memorable. The oatmeal was overly thick and dry, lacking the creamy comfort you'd expect. Buttered toast carried an off flavor, suggesting the griddle or butter station could use a refresh. The signature pancake, dusted with a powdered sugar "66" logo, was visually appealing and easily the meal's most Instagram-worthy item, but it too was disappointingly dense. Where Cafe 66 truly shines is its service. Every staff member I encountered was warm, welcoming, and eager to help first-time visitors feel at home. Their hospitality left the strongest impression of the visit. In my opinion, Cafe 66 seems to be transitioning away from being a destination built on Route 66 nostalgia and toward becoming a dependable neighborhood café for the Clinton community. There's nothing wrong with that--in fact, it's probably the more sustainable business model. But travelers seeking an authentic trip back in time may leave feeling that the iconic branding promises more nostalgia than the dining experience ultimately delivers.

The salmon was cooked perfectly and so was the steak. If you come here get the steak if you are a steak person because it's top notch. I didn't get to try the cowboy sushi (chicken jalapeño bacon) but wish I had. The steak flight, burger, filet and salmon tacos were great. Will mark this on my map to visit again for sure!!

I didn't expect too much because this was a hole in the wall next to the gas station. Contrary to my belief, I was welcomed by smiling faces and kind staff. We sat at a booth in the back and our server's name was Terry. Again, contrary to my belief, teenagers receive not so considerate service. Terry was very kind, caring, and tended to the needs at our table despite our youth. The food was exceptional to say the least. My boyfriend got a large Old Fashioned burger, while I got a medium Swiss and Mushroom burger. Next time I will be going to a small because the portion sizes were larger than expected, but I had gotten the biggest bang for my buck. A personal rule of mine is when you go to a restaurant and the food is good, the dessert is usually bad and vice versa. This little hole in the wall broke my rule. Not only were the burger amazing, the Banana Cream Pie was exquisite. Will be visiting again.

All secondary roads are still snow packed so at 11:30 there was only one other couple in the restrauant. The Press is in an old (1920's ?) repourposed building. The interior is comfortable, charming and a bit whimsical. We started with an order of cheese sticks. They were very good and large. I liked that the cheese sticks did not have Italian seasoning in the breading. Jan ordered the chicken fried ribeye with mashed potatoes, cream gravey and green beans. Jan loved it. I took a bite of the chicken fried steak and it was excellent. The green beans were very good. They were loaded with garlic, which I love, but if you're not a garlic fan, I would suggest another side. I ordered the grilled chicked sandwich with waffle fries. The sandwich was good and the waffle fries were excellent. The portions are large and the food quality excellent. The prices reasonable. The menu has variety. You can't go wrong by dining at The Press.

I've never had fries like that before in my life and they were so delicious.
