508 N Hamilton St, High Point, NC 27262
is the address
It's a pizza joint now
Smeared out on google maps, owner obviously doesn't want visitors so don't rink the bell
address is wrong, it's adjacent to Hanson Stadium
One of the unusual McD's on the planet, and you can eat your meal in the plane if you want to
Totally worth it, even my friend who grew up seeing these was gob blasted
Its a boot (references a fictional TV character who was supposed to be from their town, their one claim to fame) ... if you plan your trip right once a year they have a boot throwing competition
It's there, you'll see it, but it's closed/out of business
Been here twice in the last year, as I road-tripped I-80 from chicago to west-coast in July and then did 66 back in Oct... got to see improvements between the two visits... They are most definitely back open... by 2nd visit they had opened a museum space at the back of the restaurant to clear counter space in the front from all their collectables which had been in the front the first time. The Owners have come up with a whole line of unique Gemini giant/route 66 merchandise -- not the generic route 66 stuff found everywhere else. Talked to the owners both times, they said they should have the cafe up and running by the spring of 2019 -- they had to completely redo the pipes and have been paying for the renovations out of pocket from proceeds raised by sale of the t-shirts and stuff. Come and support their efforts to keep this 66 classic from dying
WHY is this a highlight? It's a store selling food and fudge its not even interesting architecture ... good fudge I'll grant you but who did they pay to have this toted everywhere as a highlight?
