- Sarah CBlebo Craigs, United Kingdom25 contributionsNot as good as it used to bePrices have gone up and quality has gone down since our last visit sadly. Staff are grumpy, cocktails are not great compared to what you can get locally and air hockey is broken. Pool tables and live music are still good.Dear sarahcW6453ZP! Thanks a lot for your visit Route 66! Yes, you are right, we were forced to raise prices within the trends of the outgoing year and this, I hope you understand, is not our unilateral initiative. Everything has become more expensive for us and, as a result, for our customers. By the way, our staff has remained the same for at least 6 years and has never been excessively grumpy, which is confirmed by numerous enthusiastic reviews from our customers. Enjoy your stay and happy New Year!Written 30 December 2022This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited December 2022Travelled with friendsWritten 29 December 2022
- Bluesbird661 contributionDisappointedThis is our 5th visit to Puerto and we always look forward to visiting Route 66 for the fantastic blues and rock bands that appear. Sadly we were very disappointed to find out that Route 66 no longer puts on rock bands, just MOR buskers with or without backing tapes. They are now no better or worse than any other middling bar in Puerto or Los Gigantes. In future we will be staying elsewhere on the island, maybe Los Cristianos where we know Black Hole have a residency at The Vaults. So sad.Visited June 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 24 June 2023
- Fk228 contributionsBandsWe have been coming to Route66 for many years and love it.. but we need the bands back!! Even just a few nights. All of the bars in los gigantes were packed but not here.. surely that speaks for itself.. BTW great staff👍Visited September 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 28 September 2023
- letham cameron2 contributionsHalf hearted, could be so much better.Nice bar, in a good area. There was a single guy on acoustic playing, which seemed to be going down well with most people, but I used to play in a live band, and that’s what I like. I really hoped to see some live music, not a guy singing and strumming. Even a drum machine would have made a difference. I had heard so much about this place and have to admit, I was slightly disappointed. Not the jumping, lively, rocking place I had imagined. No offence to the boy playing acoustic. He was decent, but just not what I want in a rock bar.Visited November 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 19 November 2023
- _kronwalker34Pontypool, United Kingdom7 contributionsBig disappointmentGutted. This bar has a long standing reputation for (and the name suggests) great rock bands. I had read it now has solo performers but hoped they were still the same genre of singers and playing accompanying guitar. Not so, I've just sat through Lionel Ritchie, The Temptations,Abba and others all sung to backing tapes. Much the same as numerous other bars. You were the only reason I booked this resort. Not again.Visited November 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 29 November 2023

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We really love this place but its lost its mojo! the owner has ditched the amazing live bands and now just has the singers with backing tapes! Now you can get that sort of light entertainment anywhere, but Route 66 USP was all about the live bands!
Come on Vlad, stick a euro on the drinks and bring back Rock Rose, 4Ward, Black Hole & Broken Shoes!
BTY its the best venue in town & the guys at the bar are the best!

We are very sorry that your visit to our bar was unsuccessful. According to numerous positive reviews of our visitors, we try to satisfy all the requests of guests as much as possible and be extremely attentive in this regard. If it would not be difficult for you, could you state the essence of the problem that arose during your visit to our bar more clearly, because from your review, apart from the vocal accusations of some kind of fraud, it is not possible to understand what exactly did not suit you. Thanks!
