Avis sur Ludlow Cafe San Bernardino County
Loved this spot in the middle of nowhere. Breakfast was amazingly good. But the blueberry pie could be so much better. Paid $30 for a blan pie. No taste at all. Was very disappointed. But not waitresses fault or cooks fault. Which is why I still gave 5 stars.
Really cool place. Felt like a movie. The food is good too
Classic Route 66 Stop Nostalgia, Great Coffee & True Americana ☕🇺🇸 Driving from Williams, AZ back to Los Angeles, we wanted one more dose of Route 66 authenticity and Ludlow Cafe was the perfect choice. The place has that true vintage roadside diner vibe: triangle-roof architecture, warm lighting and a cozy counter that instantly takes you back to the golden days of American road trips. Inside, you’ll find friendly staff, good coffee, and homemade pies that regulars swear by. The interior décor feels frozen in time Route 66 signs, souvenirs, and Christmas ornaments that add a touch of small-town charm. There’s even a bit of history out front: the “Project Carryall” monument and old mining carts from the 1880s make this spot more than just a café it’s part of California’s desert heritage. The place is clean, quiet, and right off the highway, with free parking and easy access for travelers. It’s ideal for anyone crossing the Mojave on I-40 who wants a relaxing break and a taste of Americana. #Route66 #LudlowCafe #RoadTripUSA #ClassicAmericana #DesertVibes #California
Very quiet & very quaint. The prices were fine. My wisdom teeth had came in and she made sure to hook me up with something that I could handle. The lady was very nice and the staff that came out were all very professional.
Loved the food! I had ham & cheese omelet. Not huge but NOT small in portion. Very tasteful! Hashbrowns were cooked perfectly no not cooked white shreds of potato taking up the portion. Pleasant and retro. Clean, service was like an old friend. Cute souvenirs and not pricey.
A route 66 OG. I stopped by on the way to an off-road trip in the Mojave Preserve. Had the Breakfast Special which is two eggs, sausage patty, and a Belgian Waffle. The staff was super friendly and welcomed me right away. Nothing beats the ambience of the cafe...really throws you back to the 1970s on Route 66.
Was driving back from a fun Labor Day weekend, first in Vegas and then in Needles CA, on our way back this restaurant was the one of the only options that we encountered to dine at. We arrived at the gas station ⛽ nearby and checked the DQ to see a ridiculously long line for both a meal and the bathroom! We called Ludlow Cafe, not only were they open they had almost now one there with plenty of room to sit and eat! We ordered, the French dip, pancakes, biscuits with gravy, and burgers! Aside from it being reasonably priced, the service was incredible and the food was great! There was incredibly good energy and I can tell it's a local gem because I certainly saw it's shine! Has some great history on the back of the menu and on some plaques outside, highly recommend! To our server, she was incredible forgive me I almost forgot to leave the review and her name slipped my mind but both her and the bus boy were incredible folks! Happy Labor Day (4pm Labor Day 2025)
had a great chili cheese omelette there this morning with sausage and gravy Service was great Restrooms were clean Did have toilet seat covers Lots of parking
It's a nice cafe right on Route 66 and just off of 40. Michelle took care of us. The homemade biscuits and gravy (breakfast served all day) are delicious. The homemade pies are tasty, too! I went with the banana cream. It was a good choice. Highly recommend.
Traveling home and spotted this cute little cafe, customer service was great! Food was amazing! I highly recommend this place. It’s in the middle of nowhere but a must visit 👍
The food was excellent. Hash browns were done correctly. I liked the decorations in the restaurant. However, I wish there was better lighting in the restroom. Even still I'd definitely come back.
It was great to find this place! Nice food and very kind staff. The food was not expensive, It was homemade and they even had gluten free options!
After I say 30 years plus of driving to laughlin NV, we decided to stop by the Ludlow Cafe. I really liked the old brick and stone construction of the cafe, which brings a real sense of nostalgia and simplicity. The food is moderately priced and plentiful.
Kim is a great host and the kitchen staff is AMAZING! This place is underestimated because the food is so good. I almost for and didn't get the pictures. The home-made orange marmalade on my toast and my mans French toast was delicious, try it. 💯 he inhaled his biscuit and gravy 😂 We stopped here on the way home from Laughlin. Ludlow Cafe is worth the stop and we will be returning. Thank you LC staff!!
Really good breakfast! Friendly service. Interesting stuff outside including a couple of historical plaques. No dogs allowed inside so we ordered to go. Three picnic tables available.

We stopped at the Ludlow cafe on a road trip (Dallas to Reno) and it was a wise choice. It's located on the historic Route 66 and it is an authentic example of old school American diner. I ordered …
We hadn't been here in a few years. At 630am we got breakfast in 12 minutes. Crispy hash, great eggs, biscuit and gravy is a must.
I love Ludlow and the cafe there. Same with Amboy down the road. I go there every chance I get. I'm looking forward to heading down that way soon. If I didn't have to go work on my boat I'd spend e…
Get off Freeway. Cute little local place. Our food was good and malts were perfect. Two historical markers in front of cafe. Project Carryall was very interesting.
What a gem of a place! We were driving through and needed a bathroom on our way to Laughlin so pulled off the 40 for the Chevron and then found this A-frame beaut and how could we not stop here! Do…
Nice service and ambiance. Same with food. Shakes good, club sandwich good, burger good, chili good. Generally GOOD !!
We stopped for a quick cup of coffee - which was excellent- and ended up ordering delicious bowls of homemade chili. The same cook has been making the chili for the past 40 years, and each batch ta…

Great breakfast and really good service by Molly, real American authentic experience on route 66, definitely recommend going
The Ludlow Cafe is in the middle of nowhere. We love trying the "hole in the wall" spots for hidden gems. The Ludlow Cafe did not disappoint. Our server Tayler was super nice and attentive. I had the taco salad in a homemade shell. My husband had the patty melt with fries, and onion rings. The food was good and filling. Food was a bit pricey but welcome to 2025 😂
Very authentic old school cafe. Animals are allowed inside. Good choice when traveling through desert during summer time. Be aware of elevated eggs price surcharges $1.99/egg.
Little cafe off historic Rt. 66. Decent food, great fries, and friendly service. Would have liked a bit more potions. Salad is just a bowl of lettuce. French dip (15.99) and patty melt (13.49) was just what the Dr. ordered! Pretty much in the middle Of nowhere. Seat yourself and food came out rather quickly. Cool decor inside and out. Worth the stop!
The waitress was very nice. My friend and I were both disappointed with the food. He got chicken fried steak, I got a BLT. Fountain soda is $4 and you have to pay $4 each time you need a refill. Th…

Solid 3.5. Quick and more satisfying / healthy than Dairy Queen, the only other option around. breakfast served all day. There is nothing else on 40 before AZ for miles so stop unless you have pl…
We ordered two Rueben’s, one with a side of potato salad and the other with French fries. To go. The Rueben was soggy, did not have thousand island dressing, just mayonnaise and only two thin slices of corned beef. The rye bread was good though. The portion of the potato salad was about a 1/4 cup, but the fries were amazing. Definitely not worth the $44.00. Thinking that this place is better for breakfast items.
Just stopped for a bowl of Chili instead of getting a breakfast on my way back to Kingman, AZ.\nThe bowl of chili was $9.99 and wasn't very good!!! She asked if I wanted cheese & onions when I orde…
We were traveling through and decided to stop in for breakfast. We walked in to an empty restaurant and a lady talking loudly on the phone about personally affairs. She only greeted us when we walked in but continued her conversation; it wasn’t until she was finished that she came over to the table (roughly 5 minutes) to grab our drinks and order. It only got worse from there. We ordered biscuits and gravy and a bacon cheese burger with chili and cheese (they claim the chili is homemade, but, it looked and taste like Hormel from a can). Our order came out- the gravy was lukewarm.. and that’s probably a generous temperature. It was somewhere between lukewarm and cold. Not like just came out of the refrigerator cold but not warm like it’s been on the stove warm. I pushed it to the side and my husband split his burger with me. They’re frozen patties. So, they lack flavor. It doesn’t matter how much salt and pepper you throw on it, those things just aren’t good! The chili was a bit warmer than the gravy, but, not warm enough to where it felt safe to eat. The only good thing coming from this experience was she kindly didn’t charge us for a single thing. I understand Ludlow is a small town, out in the middle of nowhere, so, the talking on the phone and letting locals know all your business is just the norm- however, they’re a Route66 “attraction”. That’s how they advertise themselves to draw in travelers. It worked, clearly, we stopped. However, if you’re going to put so much emphasis on getting people to stop in, that same effort should be applied to delivering a satisfactory experience. I don’t know whether the lady we encountered was the owner or an employee, however, she was kind about it and kept insisting that “this isn’t the way we normally operate”, which, is fine, I understand that orders get messed up and everyone has “an off day” but, when food comes out cold (especially gravy during breakfast hours) that’s a concern. I don’t want to get sick!
Service was terrible the server was more interested in helping her friend with her cell phone than taking care of customers. I finally ordered the special and it was just as bad took forever to get no customers in building food was cold beacon was dry poached eggs??? Just look at picture the waffle was ok but the syrup was high fructose garbage
