What a gem this stop is! The history here is so fascinating to me and I could have listened to their stories all day. Great atmosphere, variety of fun gifts and souvenirs. And the decor, inside and out, was amazing! Took lots of pictures. My whole family loved it, especially the kids and all the Cars movie inspiration. Thank you!😊

Angel & Vilma Delgadillo's Original Route 66 Gift Shop is one of our favorite places to shop for souvenirs on Route 66. The store is run by the relatives of Angel Delgadillo. We had a long conversation with them about their father and the history of the store, Seligman, and his impact on Route 66.This is a fantastic store. it's a great place to look around, especially Angel's Barber Shop. There are great shirts, magnets, hats, etc.Later on that evening, we happened to meet Angel, who was out on his daily walks. We both had a fantastic conversation, and he showed me where the original alignment of Route 66 was, and we walked over to his pool hall. Thus was quite the experience, and I will always remember the kindness of his daughters and the history lesson from Angel.

Some of the nicest people on Earth. They showed us the barber shop and pointed out some of the attractions of the town.The ceiling is full of police patches and bills from all over the world.

This place is the heart and the history of the whole Route 66. A must-visit place when you travel along the Mother Road. Make sure to reserve some time in your calendar to enter inside and enjoy the whole atmosphere. Absolutely recommended!

This place is overflowing with joy, helpfulness and kindness. It is really amazing, although came from Poland really felt like home. It was honour to meet you. Thank you for keeping it alive! Best wishes, Konrad & Teo - Tow Mater fans (wanted to say this in person, but my son was so pumped for puzzle we bought in Your place we had to leave immediately).

Wow what an experience, so much history. This shop is very special & a must stop if your into old Route 66. It all starts here and how the last remainder of the hi way was saved and turned into a historic drive. Hector (hope that's right) shared so much history of Angel the Barber and how it all came together. Many of the items including shirts are USA made as well. Take the time and get off the main highway, get a map and take a drive down history lane. Were glad we did! The Pixar film Cars was based from this town.

If you love Americana, Disney's Cars or anything Rt. 66, Angel & Vilma's Original Route 66 Gift Shop is a MUST see! Our family traveled the entire Rt.66 from Albuquerque, NM to Needles, CA and this was by far our favorite stop. Angel's son in-law Mauricio greeted us when we walked in, asked where we were from and invited us to explore all around the store. While some stops on 66 would not speak to us, and acted like our even being there was a bother, Mauricio made us feel at home and welcomed. He loved that our family respected and loved the magic, beauty and nostalgia of the old Mother Road. All of that past and present American greatness has been persevered in this classic family fun shop on 66. Our family first found out about this gem while searching for Rt.66 content on YouTube. We found Justin Scared's RandomLand channel that showcased this American Icon and we knew we had to visit. I will include a few pictures, but nothing does this slice of American pie justice like actually stepping back in time and meeting Mirna, Clarissa and Mauricio! I want to say Thank You to the entire Delgadillo family for welcoming my family and for preserving an iconic moment in Great American History. So jump in the family Truckster, put on "Get Your Kicks On Rt. 66", and head down the Mother Road to Angel & Vilma Delgadillo's Original Route 66 Gift Shop!!!

I love this historic place! The fact that Angel has maintained this piece of history for generations to come is amazing. I hope I get a chance to go back sometime. It’s somewhere cool that everyone should experience at least once. Just really cool!

This is a big piece of American history and you MUST stop here! We decided to take the iconic route 66 from Vegas all the way to the Grand Canyon and what a journey it was. This place was awesome and we learned so much how this shop and the owner some long years ago started a coalition to keep the route relevant for travelers. We had the pleasure of meeting Carly who was absolutely terrific. She talked to us for about 20 mins on everything involving the history of the route, what other sites to see and just gave us the all around genuine experience we were hoping for. Shes incredible this shop is incredible and the whole route is incredible. Don’t be a stranger come check this place out!

Our tour stop off at the gift shop more than worth a visit as the man has saved his section of Route 66. The fun around the gift shop is wonderful.

A must-stop on Route 66. Angel and Vilma’s family clearly has the same lovely spirit. Take your time to read the family’s history on the windows and inside. It’s not just a gift shop, it’s an inspiration. I look forward to this place every rt66 trip!

A true treasure of Route 66. Over 80 percent of items are made in the USA!! Owners willing to talk with you and share stories of Route 66 and offer advice of additional spots to stop. So worth a stop to shop and talk.

This place has a lot of history behind it, and amidst the souvenirs, there remains living history. I usually stop here going west, and back east as well. I was fortunate enough to meet Angel on one stop, and obtain an autograph. You can actually purchase made in America shirts here!!!!
