A Unique MacDonalds on Historic Route 66 in Seligman, Arizona

OK, this is just another MacDonald but unique in two ways:

  1. This one has an architecture that is different from the ones found in urban areas providing a unique photo opportunity.

  2. It is located on the Historic Route 66 in the town of Seligman, Arizona, USA.

Here’s the amazing storefront photo of the place.

This was a pit stop for food on the return trip from Grand Canyon and Historic Seligman.

The order processing was quick, and the service was fabulous.

The best part of this outlet was the exterior, especially the colors, and theme which is different from the usual MacDonalds.

The most attractive part that I liked was the corner board that read ‘GET YOU BIG MAC ON ROUTE 66’ along with the stray stones to sit and relax and soak in the evening sunlight or morning sunshine after a nice breakfast.

:wheelchair: Accessibility

They have a huge parking lot with several lots marked reserved for the differently abled.

The entrance is also accessible.

Never heard of the movie @Maximilianozalazar

I looked up Google Search images “lightning mccuin MacDonals” but it did not come up with much.

Do you have any further clues?

Maybe @JustJake or @AZ_2021 have an idea.

I really like such store fronts with organized parking and outside seating arrangement. Such store fronts are very common in USA as you move outside from the big USA cities. @TusharSuradkar Sir, thank you for sharing with short, simple yet informative post! USA has always been in my bucket list for travel. Lets see when it happens! Finger Crossed! Best Regards!

@TusharSuradkar & @Maximilianozalazar There seems to be quite some debate regarding the actual location of Radiator Springs from Cars, but it’s definitely near the area Tushar toured, possibly a little more East on Route 66.

I’m not familiar with that McDonald’s, but I did have a Roadkill Cafe poster that still hangs at my Mother’s house :joy: .

@JustJake I remember the tour guide mentioning the Radiator Springs from Cars".

We also had a pit stop there for photos; I will post that short episode tonight.

Had I known about Roadkill Cafe, I’d have paid a visit, it appears so close to MacDonalds.

Maybe next time.

Hi, dear friends… @TusharSuradkar @JustJake @Maximilianozalazar

Interesting discussions…

“lightning mccuin MacDonals” and “Roadkill Cafe”…

Something new to me - Googled to get some idea…

Though McDonald’s is frequently seen in different parts of India, I’m hearing “Roadkill Cafe” for the first time…

Thanks for the update…

Cheers :+1: :handshake:

Brief, but well presented post, my dear @TusharSuradkar ,

Sincerely expected more than one photo, though this is really a nice shot.

As I mentioned earlier, I enjoyed it - really impressive.

Thanks for sharing.

@TravellerG The joke is that they cook whatever animal they find on the road that’s been hit by a car Roadkill. In some places, this is acceptable, especially where there may be big animals that are known to dash out across traffic; deer, elk, even raccoon. But, mostly it is used in a derogatory way to describe someone who would eat such a thing as uncivilized or poor. In the case of the restaurant in Tushar’s photos, and of the poster I’m talking about, it’s just poking fun at ourselves.

What a post @TusharSuradkar !

MacDonalds is very common and its outlet is there everywhere across the world but you always give a diiferent perspective with your creative thoughts.

The way you capture the common objects with your creativity, it changes the complete outlook and makes it more interesting.

In this post the interesting aspects which I could see are: the different appearance of the store and the corner board that read ‘GET YOU BIG MAC ON ROUTE 66’.

Quite impressive!

Thanks for sharing it Tushar.

May be… Nowadays, the exclusive look of McDonald’s is slowly getting shaded…busy city and costly environment…right, dear @TusharSuradkar ?
