CONGRATS-ARISTON CAFE

This Senate resolution congratulates the Ariston Cafe in Litchfield, Illinois, on its 100th anniversary and wishes the historic establishment continued success. The document highlights the cafe's history as the oldest continuously operated cafe on Route 66, noting its founding in 1924, its inclusion in the Route 66 Hall of Fame, and its listing on the National Register of Historical Places. It acknowledges the contributions of the Adam family and current owners while celebrating a ribbon-cutting ceremony held in July 2024. As a symbolic gesture, a copy of the resolution is to be delivered to the cafe as a token of respect from the Illinois Senate.
