So excited to come here! If you enjoy The Eagles, love music, or unique roadside attractions on Route 66 this is a must see!Unfortunately, I arrived later than I had planned. Of course the gift shops were closed, but still managed to get some wonderful pictures! It only would have been better if my special someone was with me.read more

I waited 4 years to come back to the Sip Shoppe and have a root beer float that my son completely drank before I could have more. Well it was worth the diversion on our road trip. They mix hard ice cream with soft serve and use some kind of syrup in addition to the root beer. Really good quality and hits the spot.I was curious about their hot dogs, and gave their Illinois dog a try since we also came back from Chicago. The relish is exactly like the neon green kind they serve in Chi town. Sport peppers and mustard (no ketchup) was pretty authentic. It might have even been Vienna beef dogs for all I know. And of course, stop and appreciate the mural and statue on the Corner on Winslow, and listen to the music that's broadcasted on the public speakers.read more

“Take it Easy”If you are anywhere near Route 66 in Arizona you should check out Winslow.Plenty of good things to take pictures of and with.Check out the ice cream shop on the corner and get a classic shake. An old bank restored into an ice cream parlor.Across the street are two great gift shops. Between the two of them there will be something worth taking home.Up and down the street are benches that you can get a picture sitting in.Of course, the corner is the place for the best picture. Check out the attached pictures and make sure you stop on by.read more

Cute little town. My mom was able to cross this off her bucket list. We enjoyed the gift shops and dining. Townsfolk were very friendly. Fun experience. Glad to see Trump merchandise in the one gift shop directly across from the landmark.read more

Very cool little tourist trap for Eagles fans. Great area with lots of things to see. Some great restaurants, too.

Mark S.

Winslow did a great job making this a tourist attraction. Very cool stop on our Route 66 tour. It is an excellent photo op.

James S.

Every Eagles Fan should make the trip to experience “Standin’ On The Corner in Winslow, Arizona”!!! The music (of course) plays and every lyric is a living real “on the scene” here!!! The Girl in the Flatbed Ford and more! Sing the song in your head and do a 360 and experience the feeling here!! Great souvenirs and eats for you to really make those Eagle Days awesome forever!! Bling Blinky of Texas Shout Out: Take lots of pics!!!read more

Loved it. I can remember singing the song in high school. Jeff Mullins Photography Adventures. Happy Hiking!

Jeff M.

I love the Eagles!Winslow Az is a sleepy little town , easy to get to the corner on rt 66.Two little souvenir shops there as well as a guy playing the guitar. Quick Roadside stop to stretch your legs and get a picture.read more

Monica M.

So much fun! Adorable little park. Worth the stop. Doesn't take long. Stop on your way to somewhere else and enjoy a little old pop culture!

Cheryl W.

What a cool little stop if you're on the route 66 trail! I highly recommend taking some time for this one, because the town is so quaint and the people are super friendly. The walk is short through downtown and look at all the different shops! Photo tip, stand on the opposite corner, so you can get the route 66 symbol in the road, along with the landmark in the background, there aren't too many cars that pass through downtown, so you have time to set up your shots!read more

Kate J.

Folks I’ll tell you this a cool one. If you’re rolling along I-40 and have some time for a unique Route 66 experience go ahead and check this out. The town of Winslow has made a great effort in making this spot special and it shows. Stop in, get a photo, and check out the local businesses. You’ll be glad you didread more

As a child of the 70's this was a bucket list item for me. I grew up on The Eagles and Jackson Browne and though there wasn't a lot of bells and whistles it made the experience that much better for me. They had a very nice gift shop as well.read more

James P.

Can't believe this place really exist. Drove through as a bucket list item and was surprised that they have a cool little tourist destination with shops and photo ops. Worth getting off the interstate for.read more

Rand P.

I absolutely loved this place. I didn't even know it existed until I told my cousin that I would be passing through Winslow and she asked me if I knew where the corner was. I couldn't believe that it was an actual spot. Very very cool!read more

A S.

You gotta do it. Actually there is a huge parking lot by the visitor center which we needed for our RV. Then there is a nice sidewalk path to follow to get to the street corner. It goes by a few train cars. Then head over a block and there you are. Time for a photo op then.read more

Marsha L.

Drove from Antelope Canyon direct to Winslow for this visit. It did not disappoint. The folks of Winslow have created a small “park” dedicated to the line in an Eagles’ song. Bronze Statue of Glenn Fry with a guitar with appropriate signage. For Eagles fans, a must see.read more

Brenda S.

This was a very nostalgic place to visit... It lived up to my expectations... took lots of pics and found some very interesting items in some of the nearby stores... I was concerned about the town though... Looked rundown and depressed outside of the downtown area... Maybe a few more tourists a day, could improve that... If you love the eagles, Glen Frey or Jackson Brown, you will love this place... There is a connection here...read more

Robert R.

Always a fun stop on the way out to meteor crater. Always a lot of people, just be patient. The rte 66 sign in the intersection is cool and a lovely addition to the area. The shop is super cute and staffed by lovely people. Parking can be hinky depending on the time of day you visit. But there is plenty around in the streets surrounding it. Definitely worth getting off the interstate and parking and snapping the pics.read more

Melanie T.

Very well done! It's hard to believe they could do so much with just one line from a song! We literally drove out of our way so we could stand on the corner in Winslow Arizona. And better yet we were not disappointed. It's a fun thing to do and I highly recommend it.read more

Mark B.

Worth the trip. Not far off I-40. They've fixed the place up to cater to fans of the Eagles, some of whom looked to be fairly mature. Well, actually, that may have been a storefront window reflecting back at me!In any case it's a good time on historic Route 66, and there is the obligatory gift shop across the street the cater to the souvenir needs of everyone who makes the pilgrimage to this place.Highly recommend.read more

Rob W

What a fun place to visit. Totally worth the small detour. Everyone in town was so nice. Go stand on a corner in Winslow, AZ check out part of Route 66 and if you get a chance get some chilli fries or homemade root beer at Taco Tangle. You won't regret it.read more

Connie P.

Great place to stop during your travels. Loved the photo ops this place provides and the few stores near it have a nice selection of souvenirs to purchase. Easy to find parking near. Just be patient while others are taking photos and wait your turn.read more

Melissa W.

I am of such an age that I remember when the Eagles recorded their song that made this corner in Winslow AZ famous. It is such a thrill to actually stand there, with the song running through your head. The statue of the man standing on the corner, and the more recent addition of the statue of Glen Frey just adds so much, as well as the mural on the brick building of the "flatbed Ford".read more

Janet F.

I used to love listing to the eagles growing up ! Me my wife and sister in law were traveling through headed to the meteor crater site! Decided to stop! I’m glad we did in this small interesting town! All the buildings here look historic! Great place to visit lots of places to eat and tour around the area! 👍🏼👍🏼read more

Justin M.

Fun to see the artwork of the "girl in a flatbed Ford" mural on the brick wall. There are also some statues there of the Eagles and just a neat spot. It is diagonally across from Relic Brewing Co. & they have great food and service. Well worth the stop in Winslow, AZ!read more

Liz F.

This little corner of Arizona was so neat! There were a couple of statues for pictures available. Behind the statues was a mural that is looking a little worn down, it looked like the community is raising funds to have the mural restored. All four sides of the corner stop was either souvenir shoos with fantastic choices of gifts or a retro style dinner.read more

Jessica M.

Town is struggling but the park and shops are great. A great place to get in touch with the Eagles and Route 66. People are very friendly and appreciate your business. It is a fantastic break from interstate 40 to jump here (a mile or two) to browse the shops and get a bite to eat.read more

Gordon S.

What a cool town! There was a guy on the opposite corner with a guitar and a speaker playing music and talking/interacting with everyone walking and driving through. Even the locals sitting outside a cafe eating lunch greeted us as we walked past. Everyone in the town thanked us for visiting them. Great place overall!read more

Karen C.

Well worth a stop off the Interstate to a time before carbon copy fast food stops. Stand on the corner and then get a bite at one of the authentic local restaurants. Spend some time strolling around the town and soaking up the local flavor and history.read more

Ken P.

It was such a cute place to visit. It brings back memories of the song. My friends and I enjoyed the beautiful town. We ate a picnic lunch at the gazebo. Went through the gift shop, it has something for everyone.read more

Barbara R

Because of that wonderful song "Take It Easy" by the legendary band "The Eagles" most of Earth's population has heard by now about Winslow, AZ. My husband and I were in Arizona a week ago and we wanted to pay our respects to the iconic corner and to my surprise I found more than I expected. They turned this place into a park on September 11th, 1999. There are two statues commemorating Jackson Brown who wrote the song and Glenn Frey, the founding member of "The Eagles". Appropriately they are a couple of stores on the corner when you can get mementos of your visit.read more

Elka W.

Such an iconic place! A small, clean town right out of a favorite song. If you go, be sure to visit the gift shop across the street. They are so friendly! Plus, there is pretty much everything you can imagine for those little gifts for everyone on your list! I was also told that the coffee shop on the other corner has amazing coffee, cappuccinos, and crepes, but we didn't have time to drop in there. The corner even has a flatbed Ford sitting there for those *must have* picture moments! Another item checked off of my Bucket List for sure!read more

Kathie M.

This is an amazing roadside experience. The gift shops are pet friendly and so nice. The attractions are well maintained and super cool.

LindaNJeff K.

A fun and popular place to stop...something you just gotta see at least once in your lifetime. And apparently lots of people feel the same, because there was an abundance of people there to take pictures. The mural is really clever and cute, and the town has found a great way to make the most of the fame brought to them by the song. You even hear Eagles music playing there on the corner. A really fun photo op.read more

Aimee G.

This stop in Winslow was the second time I've been there on my 4000 mile journeys. The last time I took photos and a video, and wrote a review. It was my most popular Five Star review for the entire year.This trip was just as much fun. Weather was colder, while last time was warm. I went to the same places and had just as much fun. Staff that was helpful in summer was just as friendly and helpful. Winslow, and thus the foundation, is consistent and considerate.I will return again to soak up the ambiance, good music by the Eagles, and to stand on the corner. Maybe I will bring a friend next time 😉😁Stop here in Winslow Arizona. You will like it!read more

Timothy B.

What a way to make a song come to life. Found a few minutes off the highway, this little stop is completely worth the detour. Whether your an Eagles fan or not, this is just kinda cool to do.

Ted B.

What an amazing place! I've wanted to see the historic Route 66 and all it had to offer and I was nothing short of ecstatic. The wall mural is beautiful and the statues are terrific. The town feel is very welcoming and quaint.read more

Winslow, Arizona is a fun place to visit. Make sure to eat at BOJO's especially if Mary is there. What fun.

Constance S.

Loved stopping and 'standin' on the corner', grabbing a quick bite and visiting the town. Definitely worth the time. Great little tourist town with very friendly locals happy to visit and answer questions.read more

John E.

A fun place to stop and take a picture. Lots of souvenir shops right there on the corner as well. A really pleasant experience.

Nicolaas S.

Why wouldn't you pull off for this fun tribute? It's free and the town has great amenities. Coffee shop right across the street with ice cream too.

BlackEarth J.

I was so excited to stand on the corner!! The shop across the street was playing The Eagles and everyone was so friendly. Winslow is a small town with one way streets so be sure to Google maps it before you go.read more

Aunt P.

As The Eagles recommend, you should ‘Take It Easy’ and stand on a corner in Winslow, AZ.On a Route 66 tour I did just that. I was very impressed with the mural on the wall, the flatbed Ford parked out the front and the whole park behind. Very tastefully and respectfully done! Across the road are several food and gift stores, which all add to the atmosphere. I was so impressed I went back twice! Definitely highly recommended 👍🏼👍🏼🏆read more

Murray B.

Lived in AZ my entire life and never pulled off the freeway in Winslow. Sure glad we did this vacation, great little shops in historic downtown Winslow. Pull over stretch your legs and get some homemade ice cream you won't regret it.read more

Larry H.

Nice stop for those familiar with the song. Had to leave the 40 freeway just a little to see it but worth it. Not a lot to see so you can go and be back on your way quickly.

J B.

They've done an amazing job of depicting the song in beautiful art work. I applaud the artist and the caretakers. I am so happy I stopped. I would advise everyone to stop if you are even remotely close.read more

Katie T.

My hubby and I enjoyed this piece of history, because we love the Eagles music, but it needs some serious upgrading, soon. It has inspired to wanna donate by purchasing a brick, for the sidewalk. I'm really glad that we walked around this and the town.read more

Standin’ on the corner definitely tugs at your heart strings if you are an Eagles fan and grew up influenced by their music. We all have moments from our lives of chance encounters and haunting romance memories the song and the myth of this corner call to. Fun to visit and be drawn into the legend and with all the emotions the famous words from the song evoke. It is really well done and worth stopping by to experience.read more

Jim B.

Heavily over marketed. But after Route 66 died so did the town so it's cool to see that everyone here is able to still draw in tourists. If it's sunny out you're gonna take a bit to get good photos sans other tourists. I'd recommend an early morning with some sunrise, like 8am.read more

It was very cool. Old downtown Winslow is a beautifully revitalization project with beautiful brick buildings, trees, grass and flower boxes. It has been fixed up a lot in the last few years and is looking great.read more

Angie A.

Off on Route 66. Beware of speed limit changes, the police are watching. Only a couple of people there when we got there. So no large wait. The statues are on the west side of Kinsley. Pretty cool place.read more

Jim M.

Really neat. People are very friendly and polite. There was a older gentleman playing a guitar and singing actually very relaxing. Love the atmosphere there. Could of sat outside all day just people watching and enjoying the weather.read more

Teresa T.

Definitely a tourist stop. Obviously based on a classic Eagles song.It's got everything you need to take a picture of yourself "standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona". Oh, and YES, there is a flatbed truck at the corner for her.The stores on the corners play none stop Eagles songs and concerts. It's a great place to eat lunch and watch everyone play around.Get Mexican food at Maria's just down the block.read more

Tim T.

It's a fun random attraction, there's lots of small shops to check out, and it is a really chill area. Take it easy.

Antonio S.

The song takes on a bit more special meaning once you've stood here. Almost like a beacon to us grey haired baby boomers, and anyone cruiz'n 66. Glad we made it. Loved the gift shops.
