Enjoyed looking at the memorabilia. The displays were well organized over the decades. There were also many news articles framed and other items to show the progression of the chain.
Mickey D's is part of Americana (whether you like them or not :) so it was fun to wander through. Everyone recognized something they had / have and there were many historical pieces that were new to us. Lots of background on the original, first sale, Ray Kroc ect. This short visit added alot to the Wigwam Motel / Rt 66 part of our long road trip.
McD's has been a part of the baby boomer generation. Glad to see some parts of the history are preserved. This was a fun stop for my mom and sisters. We were glad we made the stop. The owner and his partner/friend both spend time talking to us about the history and sharing their knowledge with us. If you want any info on McD's history or Route 66, contact them. We didn't have enough time to browse the Route 66 museum and the military museum next door is only open on weekends. Definitely a must see!
Full of old Mac stuff, and told the story of how it all started. Also had some things about the old route 66. Well worth a visit. Only stayed an hour.
It's worth the price of admission, being free, and seeing Happy Meal toys and odds and ends from early McD's was interesting for two minutes, but I wouldn't go much out of my way to visit this place.
A museum devoted to a leading cause of obesity was not to be missed! Surprisingly well-organized, with tons of artifacts from over the years Worth going to if only so you can say you've been here.
It is a great experience to enter and see part of the McDonalds history inside, from all over the world and photos from several places, from Japan to Croatia.The place is disorganized and it may be strange to enter and no one inside.The outside is not worth to see and it feels as an abandoned place.
All kinds of McDonald's items from the very beginning of it's history. I especially liked the photos of past workers. It's in the first McDonald's Ray Kroc built. Cute and fits right in if you're "doing" Route 66.
This place was really cool and interesting. The best part was that is was free. So many memorabilia. Well worth the visit.
Basically, the main reason to visit is to say you've been to the original McDonalds. If you just want to say that you've been there, the biggest thing you can do is take a picture with the original sign.Inside, there is a TON of memorabilia and other historical items. I'm glad it was free since it seemed kind of junky and I wouldn't have paid money to enter. It seemed more like someone's personal collection than an actual museum. That being said, I'm sure there are huge McDonald's fans who would enjoy the museum since they do have a very thorough collection of memorabilia.If you want to say you've been, go! Otherwise, only go if you're a diehard fan.
