Miscellaneous Information:

Open in 1929 under the name of the Blue Mill, it served grilled sandwiches. The Dutch-themed building with blue trim featured a revolving windmill and waitresses dressed in blue with white aprons. In 1945, Albert and Blossom Huffman purchased the building, added a bar and dance hall, and painted the building barn red. Over the years, the restaurant became famous for its fried schnitzel. The Mill closed in 1996. In 2007, work began to restore the building as a roadside attraction. The Mill on 66 in now a Route 66 Museum. It is open April-October on Tuesday-Saturday from 1pm-4pm.
