    A charming old time building with a good eatery. Portions were large and food came out quickly. Food was basic and good.

    Spanish Omelette and scone

    Great place to eat! Wonderful food and great people. Large portions and the scone was amazing.

    My family stopped here on our way home from Goblin Valley. The building is really old and cool looking. The bathroom is also adorable. The service was quick and attentive but not overbearing. We were all really pleased with our food. A couple of us had asked for modifications to our meals and they got all of them right. The food is a little greasy, but overall it's a really great stop while on a road trip!!

    Split the three egg breakfast with home fries, bacon, and a pancake.

    This place never fails to impress! We decided to split the 3 egg breakfast with home fries and a pancake. It was still huge! For whatever reason, the home fries were seriously EPIC. I don't know what it was, but with the seasoning they had on them and some fry sauce, I was in heaven. Always our forever breakfast place.

    Cute downtown area with lots of ambience! The servers were fun and upbeat. The place was not busy, but we were there between lunch and dinner. Quaint lunch place, basic sammys with a twist like pineapple jelly or served on a bagel. Plenty of options. I recommend!

    The food was very good, loved our waitress. The pancakes were super fluffy and big. My husband had the omelet "it's in there" and the scone was like a fried donut/fry bread. After we ate we walked the town. So many great photo ops and cute stores. The people were super friendly.

    Anasazi grilled sandwich and rock chips and a terrific Arnold Palmer.
    Maurine R.

    We are there on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, and it was almost full. Despite that fact, the energy was chill and we were quickly given drinks --btw the BEST Arnold Palmer I've had in a very long time --- and our order taken. I had just enough time to admire the gorgeous greenery and art on the second floor 'catwalk' and then our food arrived. I ordered the Anasazi grilled sandwich And the rock chips. Rock chips are absolutely fabulous potato chips, toasted to perfection. My sandwich was amazing! The cheese was melted, the chili's spicy but not overwhelming and the turkey was roasted as well..My husband ordered the patty melt and fries. He gave it a big thumbs up! I one hundred percent recommend this eatery while you're visiting canyonlands or the carbon corridor!!

    The gomer pile with French toast

    What an incredible spot, and open on Sunday! The service was immediate and inspired, the food of quality and novelty, and the vibe so welcoming. I smashed my plate in under 3 minutes, despite the massive portion. Will definitely return anytime I'm passing by.

    Wow! This place is excellent. The atmosphere is like being in an old general store. I highly recommend the beef stroganoff sandwich with rock chips. The service was excellent.

    Spacious, light, and airy

    Really good food. Epic, shareable portions. We left more than we ate. The service was a bit "cold" but the food was hot and delicious.

    One of the worst meals I've ever had. And for the price its a joke. Change the oil in your fryer sometimes.

We had our IDs scanned and briefly used the restroom before heading to a table had to piss and wash our hands. A few minutes later, the staff abruptly told us we would not be served and had to leave without explanation. We sat there confused and were threatened with police involvement. Only after pressing for an answer were we told it was "suspicious" that we went straight to the restroom and were "touching our noses," implying drug use. It was 34 degrees outside we had just walked over, our noses were running, and one of us blew his nose. That was the entire "evidence." We were the only customers in the establishment, were polite, sober, and never given a chance to order food or drinks. Instead, we were followed, accused, and escorted out into the cold. Based on the way we were treated and consistent with other reviews about this place we feel we were racially discriminated. Both staff members involved were white; all three of us are Latin American U.S. citizens. For context, we are working professionals: I run a consulting agency, my friend manages business developers for a major company in Salt Lake City, and my brother-in-law is a registered nurse who supervises and trains other nurses. We came in to eat and talk, not to be accused of criminal behavior. Management should seriously review the conduct and judgment of the staff working that night. This experience was inappropriate, humiliating, and unacceptable.

    I'm so thankful they allow families in to eat and that we found this spot in Yelp!…read more It's a sports bar/restaurant that also has live entertainment on Friday's and I bet would be a lot of fun! It has this old world feel to it, like it's been around since the 1900's. Although it isn't that old. Several TV's available to watch sports. Pub food at its finest. I enjoyed my Club Sammy - it was filled with meat and I could barely get through half of it! The fries- superb! Best fries I've had in a long time. My husband had the Reuben bread was nice and fresh, thought the sandwich was good but could use more meat. He really liked the fried cheese curds as a side. Kiddo had the hot dog with cheese fries. Service was good. There was no available parking in front, but we found a spot in the back and walked in through through the back door.

Although there is a bar there is also family seating, which is super nice for our family. I got the chili burger, I'd be torn between getting it again or trying something else. It was really good, I wouldn't be mad at having it again. Our waitress was super friendly, it wasn't particularly busy when we were there so she had plenty of time to check on us. I could definitely see this place getting busier later in the evening. This is a nice in between of what is offered for food around here. Either fast food or restaurants trying to be too high end. Stop trying to make Heber Park City. Some more "normal" restaurants for people who want a sit down meal but one that doesn't cost $200. All in all it was a great experience and we will be back!
