Not all restaurants are family-friendly, so when we find one that is, we feel the need to share! As a parent myself, I often struggle to find a place that both my kids will enjoy, not just for the food but the atmosphere as well. One family-friendly restaurant in New Mexico that’s worth trying is Del’s Restaurant on Route 66. It’s fun for the whole family!

If you're looking for a place to dine along Route 66 that's good for the whole family, you must make a stop at Del's Restaurant. With its iconic sign topped with a Hereford bull, you'll know you've arrived at the best family-friendly joint in town.
