Fodor's Expert Review Peggy Sue's 50s Diner

Checkerboard floors and life-size versions of Elvis and Marilyn Monroe greet you at this funky '50s coffee shop and pizza parlor in the middle of the Mojave. Outside, kids can play by the duck pond before heading in to spin a tune on the jukebox or order from the soda fountain. The fare is basic American—fries, onion rings, burgers, pork chops—with some fun surprises such as pineapple pie and deep-fried dill pickles.
