Delgadillo's Snow Cap Drive-In

301 W Chino Ave · Seligman, AZ

Why you should go…

Juan Delgadillo built the Snow Cap in 1953, mostly from scrap lumber out of the nearby Santa Fe Railway yard, and his children still run it. The humor is part of the visit: a neon sign reads "Sorry, we're open," the door has a dummy knob, and the menu lists a "cheeseburger with cheese" and "dead chicken." Out front sits the roofless 1936 Chevrolet Juan decorated with horns, emblems and an artificial Christmas tree.
