we really enjoyed our visit for lunch, cool atmosphere, our server was great, got my kid her food right away to keep her mellow, the only issue was the burger being dry, way to healthy for me , i wanted a greasy 50's burger, I just felt the burger meat needed more fat. but was tasty. Definitely stop by and check Cruisers out.

Fantastic food, great service, and amazing atmosphere. We could not have asked for a better experience. John was performing live music during lunch and was a blast to hang out with.

My husband order brisket plate and I ordered a pulled pork sandwich plate. They both were great. Tender and tasty. They had a lady singing outside also and she was great too.

My husband made a plan to go visit the town of Williams in Arizona, especially to go to Cruiser's Route 66 for dinner. My first impression was that the place looks amazing and the decor caught my attention. We ordered 2 BBQ sampler plates and added an ultimate Bloody Mary to our order. BUT LET ME TELL YOU.!! in my own opinion, The ribs were dry, the brisket had no flavor, I didn't like the salad. The Bloody Mary was very good. My husband's opinion surprised me because he really liked the food. In the end my husband enjoyed his food and I enjoyed the drink. Obviously I was expecting a great and delicious meal. I can't say that I don't recommend this place. because my husband's opinion also counts. That's why I give it 5 points in favor and 5 against. . But YOU don't believe me, go and visit this place, maybe you will share my husband's opinion and enjoy an excellent meal.

Had the sampler. It was HUGE. the meats were amazing. Can taste the smokeiness. Texture was good, and juicy. Didnt really need much sauce. I enjoyed all the meats (pulled pork, brisket, beef and pork ribs) Service was ok Atmosphere ok during lunch. Probably much better at night
