UPDATED 04/09 : Here's another shot of the Horse Shoe Cafe, this view showing off the horse image on the wall of the building. According to this website, the cafe is "closed for good" as of July 2008 (see below, the cafe is "open"). With this news, another of Arizona's roadside institutions will disappear into the desert. 04-09

The Glendale Cafe in Glendale, AZ features quite a roadside marquee out front. Check out the coffee cup, the boomerang arrow, and palette shaped main display. Unfortunately, time caught up to the Glendale Cafe and this business and sign were torn down and too long after this photos was taken.
