Seligman, Arizona: Delgadillo's Snow Cap Drive-In

Route 66's prime purveyors of food gags, carried on by a second generation of the prankster Delgadillo family.

Get the mustard...no matter what you order!

Traveling through what I assumed was the section of RT-66 that was featured in the Pixar/Disney film Cars, I spotted a sign for the "Road Kill Cafe." When exiting I-40 in Seligman, I spotted the sign stating it was 2 miles on RT-66. After two miles, I wasn't even in the town yet. Once I entered, I spotted Snow Cap. With all the decor, it was hard to pass up this place. I had never heard of it, nor did I know (then) about the history of this roadside treasure.

There was no line, so I was able to order right away. I was curious about the "Dead Chicken" written outside, but I didn't ask, and instead ordered a cheeseburger with everything on it, as stated on the menu. I was asked if I would like mustard on the burger.... I'll not answer that so you can experience this. I was laughing very hard after walking away with my food. This place is great. This totally fits the epitome of what the best of Roadside America represents.

Definitely a trickster! Played a couple of tricks on us. Good soft serve cones. Malt was ok. Lots of stuff to see on this stop.

Much has been written about the fun and pranks at the Snow Cap, and it is still totally true. I just want to add my opinion of the food - specifically, the fish taco. It was the best one I've ever had anywhere! The salsa added to it made it perfect. My only regret is that I ordered just one. When I realized how good it was, a large group had arrived, and the line was too long. The ice cream was excellent, too!
