Amarillo Route 66 - Amarillo (TX)

5 /5 Ja Ric: Route 66 landmark- also known as the ‘Mother Road’. The Will Rogers Highway, Main Street of America is a historic highway in the US that runs from Chicago, Illinois to Santa Monica, California.

4 /5 Jp Shelton: This is a MUST GO if your in the area. Lots of bar and grills and neat shops.

3 /5 Bob Reed: Every area that has Route 66 passing through it is a little different, and this is how it should be. This section seems to pass through what was downtown Amerillo in the 40s and 50s. Kind of what I spent my early years in up in up north. The buildings are all maintained as original, which is good to see. It has a very heavy concentration of bars and a few restaurants. It appears the area is self funding which is nice to see as the buildings can be maintained and not run down as some areas of Route 66 have. From what we could see, it is a safe area, and if you are looking for a drink, it could be a fun experience. Its definitely worth seeing. We did find the Tucumcari stretch of Route 66 to be more family-friendly. Naturally, every section is different, which is why seeing it all is worthwhile.

4 /5 Gerry Davison: What can you say about Main Street USA in Amarillo? There’s a great selection of places to explore, eat, drink and buy your souvenirs and collectible. It will take all day and maybe more to visit all the stores in this area. Come hungry, come thirsty and bring plenty of spending money.
