Check out this classic road stop restaurant, the Wheel Restaurant, complete with roof top signage boldly advertising its services.
If you're in the Minneapolis area, don't forget to check out Murray's, home of the "silver butter knife steak."
Here's a good looking restaurant sign found in Kansas City. This marquee for Waid's Restaurant is roadside advertising at its best.
UPDATE 03/03 : Word is that the Happy Chef is gone now. Embers Restaurant is using the building and the big statue has been taken away. 03-03
Well, if the Happy Chef doesn't' do it for you, how about Chef Louie? Perhaps the personal touch of this chef having a name may make this place worth a stop.
The Busy Bee Cafe comes complete with a bee hive on the marquee. This cafe was on sale a few years ago, so there are doubts to this Dubuque, Iowa treasure's survival. Hopefully it'll make it to the next millennium.
UPDATE 12/08 : The Busy Bee restaurant had been around since 1915 and closed its doors in 1998. After closing, the Busy Bee opened up in another location but the sign did not follow. The sign was saved and according to the Telegraph Herald is on display at the Old Jail Museum in downtown Dubuque. 12-08
Here's an interesting marquee for the Star Restaurant, located in Murdo, SD. If you're looking for some eats, just search for the star.
Off the old Route 66 in Tulsa, the Chuc Wagun serves up it hot roadside food to hungry travelers. At least it used to. The Chuc Wagun, like so many of Tulsa's old Route 66 establishments, is no longer.
