On Route 66, this soda shop is hopping! This place gets busy with locals as it is only open on Wednesdays from 11 to 6! Staff is on point with all the busyness!

My husband and I stopped in after driving the Petrified Forest and as we were heading to WigWam Motel. We had a great burger and some amazing conversation with the owner and her daughter. So happy we stopped in and got to chat with them about the history of the area and the restaurant!

A perfect stop for the entire family! The food and drinks are all great. Amazing service as well. If it’s a Wednesday, this is a must stop! They have free arcade games and a pool table.

This is such a fun place! You couldn’t ask for nicer people or a wider soda flavor selection. The burgers were absolutely delicious, too. My family and I are so glad we happened to be coming through on a Wednesday so we could stop by!

I love Wednesday because that is the day I can get some Wayside yummy goodness.
I love their green chili cheese fries and burger. It hits the spot. If your thirsty they have fun flavors for drinks.

A Perfect Slice of Route 66 Nostalgia

Today, we stopped at Wayside Soda Shop in Holbrook, AZ, and it turned out to be the most delicious, enjoyable, and memorable stop of our entire road trip.

The quality of the food was exceptional—my husband’s green chili burger and my taco salad showcased the unmistakable taste of high-quality beef. And, of course, as a true Route 66 soda shop, we couldn’t pass up a hand-mixed Cherry-Limeade to accompany our meal. It did not disappoint.

But what truly set this experience apart was the heart and soul of Wayside Soda Shop: PeeWee, the incredible 80-year-old owner. She effortlessly moved through the shop, delivering orders, greeting friends and family by name, and collecting hugs along the way. When she reached our table, she welcomed us with warm conversation, asked about our travels, and shared recommendations from her decades of life in the region. She told stories, listened to ours, and made us feel like old friends.

Then, something truly remarkable happened. Without knowing my longing for a piece of petrified wood as a keepsake from this trip, PeeWee quietly stepped away. When we had finished our meal, she returned with a gift from her own collection—a stunning piece of petrified wood to take home.

In that moment, PeeWee touched my heart as only a mother could. As we left, we realized we had just experienced one of those rare, God-given, heavenly moments here on earth—a reminder of a time when strangers were simply friends we hadn’t met yet.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the good food and even better fellowship. We will see you again.

A must-see and tasty stop on Route 66. The green chili cheese burger, green chili fries, and pineapple coke are my favorite. Don’t forget the chips and salsa!
The staff are awesome and accommodating and the recipes have been around for decades.
My husband and I loved it! Great for kids too!

Great local restaurant! Tasty food. Super inexpensive. Large portion size. Staff were all really sweet. So glad we passed the national chains and rolled the dice on this place!

The restaurant is like a diner inside and is a bit dated. Also drinks were served in styrofoam and salsa in paper cups. But, I’m not complaining… that leant to the atmosphere. I only mention it to manage expectations and hope they don’t change a thing.

I ordered the ground beef sopa. Ohhh my! It was fantastic!

What a lovely way to finish a very long day of driving. Dinner was superb! We can highly recommend the Rellenos and Chimichanga! Our waiter, Jeremy, was a delight and very attentive. The service was quick, the meal hot!!!
