Star Sixty Six Cafe

Travelling on Christmas Day makes it difficult to find places that are open. It's a truck stop so it doesn't look fancy but the cinnamon french toast is awesome. Got the special with eggs n ham. Hubby had steak n eggs. Steak had a good flavor not tough. I would definatly recommend Star 66 Cafe if you are in the area. It was a full house here this morning

I cannot express how much I appreciate this place, but I’ll try. First of all, the staff very friendly. Very enthusiastic. And they take great pride in their work. Which brings me to my next point. The food. I didn’t order anything super complex. Just a sandwich. It came with fries, which is standard but they other options which was refreshing. Then they asked what other side item I’d like. My first thought was they were trying to get me to order more food. But no. It was part of deal. I ordered some soup with it too, and my whole order was ready within minutes. And fresh too, not something dried out from under hear lamps. The decor is very old school. A diner type of place but with a little more sophistication. And the staff kept it superbly clean. Very positive atmosphere and not what you’d expect from a typical truck stop. My day personally was rough. I won’t go into the details as to exactly why, but this place had absolutely nothing to do with it. In fact, after a long and trying day, this experience was one I desperately needed. I will definitely come back if traveling this way again. A welcoming and enthusiastic staff that’s takes pride in their work and giving quality food no matter how simple or complicated the order? That’s almost a lost art these days, and this place keeps it very much alive.

Place is great, busy but all staff was working hard and getting orders out in a timely manner. Definitely will be stopping in again and open 24 hours is a plus for us truckers. 2/10/22 Stopped in and had dinner again tonight . Top notch. Sat at the bar watching how things ran, you want to see how a restaurant should run stop in here, everyone helps each other place runs smooth and it shows . my steak was cooked exactly the way I like it and the cheesecake, dont even get me started on that it's that good place needs 8 stars

I love this café but unless you plan on going in and sitting down don’t waste your time. Every time I do a call in order or online delivery order (doorDash) my food is messed up. Not in the sense that my order is wrong but more along the lines it’s burnt or undercooked and/or missing ingredients. Damn it’s as if they don’t care unless you’re in their face. I ordered the same thing every time the classic combo skillet. Tonight I did an call in order when I picked it up & got home I realized it was nothing but potatoes & eggs. Where are the Green peppers, onions and mushrooms? Where are the three types of meat where is my sausage where’s my bacon where’s my ham? And yes I mixed it up (in hopes that my veggies and meat were under the potatoes) NOTHING!!!

FIRE 🔥 Can't say enough about the food & service. Found this on Yelp while heading home to St. Louis from Chicago. Pulled off the hwy & questioned it next to a gas station. Sooooo glad we took a chance. Parking lot had lots of cars which encouraged me. This is a hidden gem 💎. Totally worth the stop. Big portions, fresh cooked & fast. We all sampled each others food & loved everything. Only 10 minutes from Lincoln Museum.
