Hungry for adventure? You're in the right spot. To mark America's 250th birthday and Route 66's 100th anniversary in 2026, we've mapped out 11 culinary road trips that explore the best of America's regional cuisine.
Because what better way to experience the heart of America than by diving into its varying local food culture and traditions? And supporting the local businesses and farmers who keep these traditions alive is a tasty way to celebrate the spirit of America.
Because road trips are more fun with a friend, we've invited the curious minds at Atlas Obscura to ride shotgun, sharing their favorite off-the-beaten-path discoveries as well as their exclusive Route 66 Roadside Eats itinerary. Celebrity chefs such as Stephanie Izard, Aaron Franklin and more have shared their "Chef's Day Off" itineraries packed with insider tips for maximizing your experience in their city.
