Here a shot of the Jade Restaurant and Curio shop back in the day along with a photo of the place in current times. Besides the awnings, the old shot of the Jade featured some sort of character on the marquee. As is typical these days, the old character signage was replaced with a bit of backlit plastic. Yes, the then shot is on the far left.
A roadside establishment off Route 66, Rod's Steak House in Williams, AZ serves up some good hearty beef to the hungry adventurer. For a neon look at this marquee, take a look here.

The Copper Cart is well known in Seligman and to Route 66 aficionados for serving food and friendly service for years. Not to mention this sign, which has been featured in many publications. UPDATE 02/08 : The Copper Cart in Seligman is now closed. Many thanks to Dave van Hulsteyn for update. 02-08
Here's the sign for the Butterfield Stage Co. steakhouse restaurant, located off the Route 66 loop in Holbrook. There always seems to be a crowd at this steakhouse at dinnertime.
The pouring coffee cup points the way into Pat's Family Restaurant near the downtown portion of Phoenix. The coffee cup icon looks real refreshing on a busy and tiring trip, though the restaurant wasn't open the last couple of times. UPDATE 10/06 : The coffee cup sign for Pat's Restaurant is the old sign for Mel's Diner on the tv show Alice. Many thanks to Brad Burdick for update. 10-06
The Cholla Restaurant in Holbrook has the same name as the nearby power plant located off of Route 66.
Next time you think of a marquee, think of a big ol' chicken. This neon chicken at the Marquee Restaurant is located right off the roadside in Mesa, AZ. Not sure what the food is like here.
This large sign for Bill Johnson's Big Apple is a fine reminder to the era when roadside businesses used to rely on roadside advertising and large signs to survive and make a buck.
