Roy’s Motel & Cafe Sign

About

The Roy’s Motel & Cafe sign is one of the most photographed sights on Route 66. Standing beside the historic Roy’s complex in Amboy, the towering sign has become a symbol of the Mojave Desert stretch of the highway and of Route 66 itself.

Its bold mid-century design and desert setting make it an unmistakable roadside landmark, drawing travelers who stop specifically to photograph the sign against the open California landscape. While Roy’s has changed considerably over the decades, the sign remains the visual centerpiece of the property and one of the defining images of Route 66.
