Grand Canyon Brewery Williams AZ "Gateway to The Grand Canyon"




We headed out next to the Grand Canyon. We thought we were going to do the Grand Canyon and then head on to KC but we got side tracked in a little tourist town called Williams AZ.

We stopped here for the Grand Canyon Brewery but they were closed for the winter.

We then walked up and down the street until we found a little Pizza Shop open. It was called The Pizza Factory, good pizza and the owner was also the town Mayor!

214 W Rt 66, Williams—Pizza, salad bar, antipasto, soup, chicken, wings, breadsticks, calzone, pasta and deli sandwiches. Beer and wine also available. Weekday lunch specials from 11am-2pm. Dine in, take out and delivery. “We Toss ‘em, They're Awesome.” Open 7 days a week. Family owned and operated.

We visited a couple of souvenior stores, bought some Route 66 stuff and headed out for the Grand Canyon. We stopped at the base of the Grand Canyon and checked into The Red Feather Lodge.
The rooms are described as "inviting" but was just another Motel 6 style.

We checked in, rested and then about 4:30 headed up to the Canyon for some pictures with the sun setting. Wendy's was next door and Andrew walked over to get some food then lights out and headed out early the next morning to the IMAX Canyon movie and the Grand Canyon for the day.

About 5:00 we had not eaten except for snacks so we headed out to Flagstaff AZ to eat and spend the night.
Back on Route 66 again!
