“ Great place to stop for a bite to eat. Excellent food- hit the spot and cute decorations. ”
“ Wagon wheel is always great !! Never had a meal other than breakfast here, but the breakfast is spot on delicious. ”
“ If you're passing through Needles, this is the place to stop and eat. The restaurant is very rustic with antics and Route 66 memorabilia. The service average. They were very busy so our drinks weren't refilled as quickly or as often as we'd like. I ordered the cornbeef hash with eggs, hash brown, and biscuits with gravy. The meal was super enjoyable! The gravy for the biscuits was very savory, my main critique was that I wish the biscuits were softer. It seemed that the outside of the biscuits had hardened. I'm sure they were much better when they were freshly made. This really an iconic diner, and it's definitely worth a stop. ”
“ We pretty much stop here anytime we drive down 40E. Consistent great service and food, hot and fresh! The ambiance is a bit old school "and I like it!" You won't go away broke or hungry. ”
“ I've been in here twice now to eat & their food is sooo yummy! My last visit was on 07/29/2024 around noon while on my way back to Vegas with my friend after we spent 3 nights in Lake Havasu. It's on your way back to Vegas. From my past photos it looks like we both ordered the same breakfast dishes...lol I've had their breakfast sandwich on a croissant with ham, egg & cheese. It's soooo tasty! My friend got the Wagon Wheel Chili omelet that he enjoyed. This past visit he got the biscuits & gray & he didn't like it. He said the biscuit was very dry & it sure looked like it was. First visit I got toast with "fake" butter but that was tasty. I wanted a grilled bagel but they don't serve them there. I wanted a soda water but the waitress said they were out of C02 but offered me Pepsi soda products. I was a little confused on how they're out of C02 but have it for soda? We both just went with water & we both thought it tasted gross. Our food came out super fast this visit, I swear within like 5 minutes, how AMAZING! Love their cute little gift shop, has a bunch of cute stuff in there. I did buy stuff on my first visit but nothing on this visit. I love their WW T-shirts that they wear & wanted to buy one for my brother but their shirts are unorganized on the rack. You have to find the tag in the neckline to see what size it is & thats just too time consuming. The ladies bathroom could use a makeover. Old & has a weird stink to it & not from bodily fluids...lol You definitely have to stop in here if you're in the area & hungry. They serve breakfast ALL day & have other food items to choose from that aren't breakfast. Our waitress was Roxy who was nice, very attentive & checked on us more than once. This is great waitressing! I think she may have even been our waitress on our first visit too?? Thanks for a great experience & delicious food! ”
