Roadside Oddities along Route 66
Travel down Oklahoma’s stretch of Route 66 and find quirky stops, kitschy photo-ops and unique destinations along the way.
Arcadia
Arcadia may be a small town, but it has a huge claim to fame as a Route 66 hot spot not far from Oklahoma City. Travelers up and down the Mother Road make it a point to stop at the architecturally significant Round Barn and POPS just minutes away from each other in Arcadia.
Built in 1898, the Round Barn was restored in 1992 after standing for 90 years. Marvel at the only barn of its kind with a perfectly round circumference, which is still one of the most photographed attractions along Route 66.
Part gas station, part diner and part architectural marvel, POPS has a sleek modern design and serves over 600 different types of soda. Have fun picking out your favorites and take a few flavors to try on the road as you head back out on Route 66. In the summer, stop at Crestview Farms for u-pick berries and certified organic produce as the perfect end to your family friendly trip to Arcadia.
