Roadside Cafes Texas

 

Cowboy Cafe (Closed)

Here's the Cowboy Cafe that is found off of Route 66 in McLean, TX. The cafe is well known for it's cowboy mural that adorns the side of the cafe wall. McLean is a good Texas town that really captures the western theme.

Unfortunately, many of the businesses including this cafe are either closed or very quiet. These photos were taken in 2020. More photos from the past 20 years will added. The mural disappeared off the wall many years ago and the building now looks like a plain empty building with no lettering at all. Another memory of the old 66 has been lost to time. 08-21

Off the 66 in Adrian, TX is this sign for the Midpoint Cafe. This sign photographed in 1999 features the signage look so prevalent when Route 66 was the main thoroughfare through town. Like many of the businesses that were bypassed, this cafe shut down years ago and is vacant.

This place started as Zella's Cafe starting in 1928. Next, Fran Houser bought the cafe in 1990 and named the cafe the Midpoint Cafe where she introduced the ugly crust pie. The movie Cars which premiered in 2006 modeled Flo's V8 Cafe after Houser's Midpoint Cafe. New owners are carrying on the tradition of the ugly pie. 08-21

The sign out front of the Amigo's Cafe screams matador. The word Amigo says friend. In either case, welcome to the Amigo's Cafe.

Well these photos were taken over 20 years ago and it does not appear that the cafe has survived. Anyone have word on when this cafe shut down? 08-21

 

Here are a couple of cafes found off Route 66 in Vega, Texas. These photos were taken in the late 1990's and can't remember the names of these locations. 08-21
