5 Must-Try Eateries in Kingman, Arizona

Kingman is a beautiful city along Route 66 in northwestern Arizona. If you don’t know about Route 66, it is a US highway 66 popularly known as “Route 66”. It is significant because it was the nation’s first all-weather highway linking Chicago to Los Angeles. Route 66 reduced the distance between Chicago and Los Angeles by more than 200 miles and that made Route 66 quite popular among thousands of motorists.

The city has an Arizona Route 66 museum located at Powerhouse Visitor Center, 120 W Andy Devine Ave that is worth the visit. The city also offers great choices in food for its visitors. Here are my top five restaurants in Kingman city if you decide to visit.
