Right off the highway, you cannot miss this place - outside is a giant ice cream sundae structure that you can even see from afar. To take quick breaks, my husband and I stopped by here twice during our trip from Los Angeles to Las Vegas and back. Not only were we able to easily charge our vehicle, but we also got to check out the massive store, which has cool retro vibes. Considering the amount of people coming in and out from this place, I was pleasantly surprised at how clean the restroom was. The restrooms seemed decently sized as well, so there weren't any ridiculously long lines. In addition, many come here for food and entertainment. There are a bunch of candies, snacks, and souvenirs for sale, along with food vendors, a small entertainment area, and a dedicated homemade ice cream bar. There are plenty of things to keep both kids and adults busy.

As soon as we parked, looking at the building up close was amazing. I actually forgot where I was going to, not realizing it made sense it was so colorful. (50's themed Diner duh. lol) Wow, the juke box as the entrance was a nice touch. Loved that automatically. When you walk in, it's immediately filled with 50's decoration & objects around. I didn't realize how big this place was. They have like 4 rooms & all filled with all kinds of stuff on the walls. So much history!! Breakfast was good & reasonable prices!! I had an omelette & my husb had steak & eggs. Shelly our server was nice & the outfits are so nice! Really made me feel like I was in a 50's diner. I could go on & on about this place, but I'm really happy we came here for breakfast finally. More info in my videos. lol Worth the visit, seriously. Cant wait to go back next time we make the drive!

The service was not good. It could have been that it was Memorial Day and. 59s Diner is quite appealing to a traffic filled highway. It was crowded so it took over 15min to get seated. Our drinks were served after a brief wait, but then it took the waitress about another 15min to get to us to take our order! Then we waited a while to get our food. All in all, we spent more time waiting than eating . The small booth seating, across from the stool seats offer a not so roomy walkway. The gentleman playing pushed in a wheelchair kept bumping into both sides of the walkway, bumping people in the process. Not his fault, but the walkway should be wider! The food was GREAT, but I dont think I'll stop by again. The gift shop is filled with so many nostalgic items from enamel pins, to clothing and candies.

Another year we enjoyed our annual trip to Calico for there Ghost town season. We never miss it…read more Some of us have been going for 20 years. The one place we go to is the Miners Cafe, it's a tradition. We are welcomed by the friendly staff of Jessica and her family. For the past couple of years the Miners Cafe has been closed and this year we were excited to see that it was open again. But we were sadly disappointed.. The Miners Cafe now has a new owner, and Jessica and her family are not there to great us hello. The Cafe is just a limited, typical burger place with not much flavor. Familiar items like fried pickles and a cold beer are gone. When asked if a simple grilled cheese could be made, we were given an excuse that the staff was slammed and they didn't want to overwhelm the cooked. And when you looked around they had minimal patrons at the establishment. The person taking the order was not very accommodating, and seemed like she was just "over it". We ended up ordering zucchini and onions rings, not much to them and onions rings were just warm, not hot like it does when coming out of the fryer. Needless to say we left the sad, empty Miners Cafe. I am sad to see what used to be a wonderful establishment, become just a place to sit and make eat if you feel like mediocre cold food. What happened to the Miners Cafe we loved? And what happened the past owners who put loved and quality into there establishment? Because it showed with the food and the staff. I am sad to say, this is not place it used to be, hopefully next year it will be better or the old familiar faces will be back

It was a Saturday morning around 9:30ish and was surprised it wasn't that busy. We found a booth and saw we had to scan a QR code for the menu. OK, I admit, I hate that. Then they had instructions to download the app to place your order. I assume this was put in place for COVID. Finally, a waitress came over and said she'll take our order. Thank goodness! I ordered French Toast with sausage patties, which I totally prefer over links but it's so rare to find them on the menu, and my partner had a breakfast burrito. The food arrived fairly quick and it was perfect. I'm not into fancy breakfast foods so keep is simple and I'm happy. The breakfast burrito was HUGE and my partner wasn't able to finish it. The entire breakfast with coffee was about $40, which I felt was very reasonable by today's standards. We both mentioned how we recently went to famous SoCal fast food hamburger joint (not In-and-Out) and it was $30 for 2 people, and not as good. Our service was super friendly, and we felt welcome there. Along with good food, this might be our regular breakfast stop when driving to Vegas.

There is no need for that for the reason that food was ready in a few minutes. When employee that was a female came to bring out order did not know what car I was in and gave our order to another car. I right away noticed the other car just came out of the drive thru and was told the same as well. That lead to our food being opened and handled. There is no need for this to happen Jack n box. It's Barstow and should be easy in and out. Well it was not. I immediately went inside to inform my food was given to the wrong customer and was given immediately an attitude. Manager came out with an attitude as well and made no eye contact, just said "give me your credit card you used" without letting me explain for feedback so this would not be the case. The workers are all not motivated and dropping pans and kicking them around. Shit is nasty and crazy in there how bad it is. I am so glad I did not eat food there with how it's handled. Do not stop here go to the Baker location much better experience.

We placed our order at the kiosk, and when my husband tried to order an Oreo shake, we were told the shake machine had already been cleaned and couldn't be used--even though they don't close until 10 PM. It was frustrating, especially since there were still cars being served in the drive-thru and plenty of time left before closing. I understand cleaning procedures are important, but turning away customers hours before closing for something as simple as a shake was a letdown. Definitely not the experience we were hoping for.

If you're tired of the tourist crowds and lines at EddieWorld, I recommend this place for the convenience. I ordered the pastrami sandwich with fries based on the friendly guy's recommendation inside the order window. The $14.00 price was reasonable. Service was slow, though. I guess it's because he's the only guy there taking orders and making the food. By the time I took a bite of the pastrami sandwich, the wait was worth it. The taste is what you'd expect from a "typical" pastrami sandwich made fresh. I've had some phenomenal pastramis in my lifetime, and when I say "typical", it's a complement.
