Roy's Motel & Cafe

Roy’s Café is in Amboy, a town with 8 inhabitants on the old Route 66. The mayor of the town bought it on e-bay... the café only serves instant coffee!
Roy's Motel and Cafe, a great example of Googie architecture from the 1940s situated right on Route 66. #bvsroute66
When traveling through California along Route 66, you can find the defunct Roy's Motel and Café, which used to be a motel, café, gas station and auto repair shop in the Mojave Desert town of Amboy. This sign, in the middle of nowhere, makes a great photo op—plus, a place to stop and grab a snack at the restored coffee shop before you hit the road again. #LifeAtExpediaGroup #Route66 #RoadTrip
