Palms Grill Cafe

Atlanta, Illinois

Route 66 cafe reopened in 2009 inside a historic Arch Street storefront in tiny Atlanta.

Time to allow
45 min

The cafe opened in 1934, closed in the 1960s and came back in 2009 after the Downey Building on Arch Street was renovated. Atlanta is also home to a Muffler Man statue and a historic library, so it is worth an hour. Phone ahead for hours as small-town opening times vary.

Good to know

  • Look for the Paul Bunyon statue on the same street
  • Check hours before you detour
