    Storefront for Bear Paw Cafe

    This lovely little café in comfortable downtown St. George offers some very satisfying options for breakfast and lunch. Located on Main St. in the middle of this small city, it was nicely tucked into the other businesses in that block. We walked in just before 2 PM on a Thursday, an hour before closing time. There were five or six other parties, but it was no problem to get a table in their relatively spacious dining room. The place was tidy and nicely decorated, yet it retained a modicum of simplicity to give it the feel of a Western hometown diner. We were attended to fairly quickly. Our server Samantha did a very good job of taking care of us while we were there. The menu offered many tempting and even decadent options. I decided to try the Huevos Rancheros, which came with bacon and a salad on the side. These were done a little differently than most preparations of Huevos Rancheros that I have tried. There wasn't much in the way of a "Mexican-style" bent to them. They were very cheesy but not very spicy. But they were still good and a little Tabasco or Frank's can always take care of the spice! My wife went the route of decadence with a Peanut Butter Waffle. This was a golden brown waffle prepared just right with whipped cream drizzled with caramel. It was finished with a few banana slices to give it a wonderful, though rich, blend of flavors. We had water to drink so our final bill with food, tax and tip was $36. At $18 per person by today's standards, I was happy enough with the value. I should note that there was enough to take away for another small meal, thus adding to the value. If you are in downtown St. George, I'd recommend giving this place a try. It's a great place for comfort fare. I have a partiality to downtown diners, and this is a good one.

    Great food, great service, clean restaurant. We are visiting from Texas and stopped by this cute quaint little breakfast spot. Portion sizes are big and menu is a good variety of food options, something for everyone, even picky eaters. We really really liked this place.

    We love stopping at Bear Paw Café whenever we pass through St. George, and this visit reminded us why. The peanut butter pancakes are absolutely unbeatable--hands down our favorite anywhere. We came in at 7 a.m., and the two servers working that morning were such a delight. We didn't catch their names, but one looked to be in her twenties and the other maybe late thirties, and both were so fun to talk to. They set the tone for a perfect breakfast. If you're in St. George and want great food and genuinely warm service, Bear Paw Café never disappoints. We can't wait to stop in again!

    We loved this place so much, we came back a second time on our vacation! They were busy both times, but the service is great! They've been there for 30 years and are open every day of the week for lunch and all day breakfast. Although they've been there so long, everything looked fresh and clean and cared for. It has small town diner vibes. The food was all delicious and cooked on point! The sweet cream pancakes were heavenly! I tried the Bear Paw Hot Vanilla, made with milk, honey, vanilla, raw sugar, whipped cream, cinnamon and nutmeg and I fell in love! I'm glad I don't live here, because that drink could be a problem lol. Don't worry if you have to put your name on a wait list...they have seating out front and it's in the historic section, so beautiful all around.

    Two visits. Two different experiences. First time the food was good and the server was ready attentive. No refill on coffee but, okay. Second time I ordered poached eggs, I guess I didn't realize that I needed to say medium. They came medium-well hard boiled. The server took the order, delivered the food, came when I asked for the check and then disappeared. I paid at the counter with the help of one of the other three servers chatting together. Did not check to sed if there was an issue with meal or coffee refills. Going to try George's next time, service at lunch was excellent.

    Another cute little diner with super easy parking around. Large menu and even larger portions. Come hungry!!! Everything that passed our table looked amazing. I wish id have gotten a waffle or crepe or something - the huevos rancheros were underwhelming. Broghan loved his french dip, looks like sandwiches are served all day! If i come back you better believe im getting something sweet.

    Ok if you're in the St George area and want to enjoy some great breakfast you got to visit Bear Paw Cafe. I had the half French toast, yep filled with vanilla crème, with home fries, bacon, and over easy eggs. So good!! Lauren was my server today and treated me great!!

    Food was good. Nice big portions that you'd think of at a diner. Plus it tasted good! They were busy and were training some new staff. But things still went smooth and we got our correct order and were in and out in a timely manner. The chill air was great for some while others found it a little cold.

    Biscuits and gravy

    My mom took us to this place when we were visiting Utah. Located in the cute and walkable Dixie area in St. George. I love that area, and parking wasn't an issue as there was a structure nearby. Get ready to wait a long time if you go during the weekend breakfast rush! We waited about an hour. During that wait, I was able to go next door and visit the beautiful hotel and check out their bar and lobby. Inside the restaurant there is a decent amount of seating, but definitely on the smaller side. Had a cozy, cafe vibe that we enjoyed. We were helped pretty quickly after sitting down, there was a group of 4 of us. The food is so yummy and the portions are huge! Everything tasted so fresh. We were definitely stuffed after our meal. We tried the quiche - so good with the potatoes, pancakes that were humongous, biscuits and gravy - this was one of the best I have ever had and came with so much other food (sausage and potatoes), and the pastrami sandwich with sweet potato fries. Great place to stop at if you are visiting the area. Thank you for such a great experience!

    This is the Hot Vanilla Paw Bear Drink! Yummy

The staff has always been friendly, and the food and drinks are great. Sometimes flavors or presentation vary, seating isn't completely comfortable, but it was never not an enjoyable experience. Unfortunately, a recent experience completely changed my perspective for me. We attended their Easter egg hunt for the second year in a row. They advertised a 3-minute head start for toddlers (ages 0-3). As a mom of a 1-year-old and a 3-year-old, this is perfect. We invited several of our toddler mom friends and family to hunt with our kiddos. We enjoyed breakfast and coffee at the cafe before venturing to the event. Instead, it was nothing like last year and there was no separation. Older kids and oddly pushy parents immediately trampled the small courtyard area. It was chaotic, overwhelming, and frankly unsafe for the littlest ones. When I privately messaged the business to share that the promised toddler head start wasn't enforced and suggested better structure for next year, I was met with complete defensiveness. I was essentially told I should be "grateful" rather than disappointed because it was a free event (when technically we did pay over $50 to "be there") I completely understand that free community events are a massive undertaking, but good intentions don't excuse poor advertising, poor safety execution or dismissing customer feedback. To not even get a simple apology after years of loyalty leaves a terrible taste in my mouth. (Especially all while my kids and I are being used in marketing) I hope they can strive to actually make their customers "FeelLove" in the future.

After we finished we were going to meet my cousin who lives in St George to do another hike. Gecko or something like that. I needed a pick me up. We stopped at the gas station in the same shopping center bc I needed a restroom and I was totally ok with basic no frills coffee for the sole purpose of getting some caffeine into my body. Whelp, they had no coffee. Ummm what? So I walked out and directly over to FeelLove. TBH I felt gross bc I was dirty, un-showered and kind of wasn't in the mood for bougie coffee. As soon as I walked up and heard chill coffee spot music I realized....I was wrong. Once inside my eyes were treated to the most beautiful unique decor I've ever seen in a coffee shop. This place could rival any of its kind in LA or Vegas. When I approached the counter the ladies behind it were very busy whipping up both drive through & in house orders. One of them acknowledged me and said someone would be with me shortly and within 1 min someone was. The gal who took my order was friendly and answered my questions-about their sweetener options with a smile. $5.48 for a 16oz hot Americano w steamed almond milk & monk fruit. Standard cost. Once my drink order was taken my hubby took a seat and I was checking out all the tantalizing treats. It took ALL of my will power to not order a slice of the carrot cake which looked like it was baked in house along with the other goodies. We were going to be hiking shortly so I didn't want a sugar bomb sitting in my stomach the whole time. I do wish I had taken a piece to-go to enjoy later that night. Next time for sure! Once my order was called I picked it up and joined my husband to sip my java. It was delicious! Smooth, piping hit, heavenly sweetened and soothing to the soul! Oh how glad I am that I was wrong about this place. It was beautiful, served excellent coffee and the employees were all very polite. I will be bake FeelLove. Save me some carrot cake!

    NOT A BREWERY EXPERIENCE…read more We stopped in expecting a typical brewery experience and were disappointed. We came specifically to try a flight, but were told that alcohol could only be served if we ordered food. That's understandable, but when I offered to order an appetizer, we were then told we could only get one beer with it, not a flight. The whole interaction felt unwelcoming, like our business wasn't really wanted. We would have happily ordered an appetizer and multiple beers, but instead were essentially told to just get beer to-go. We've visited almost every brewery in the state of Utah and hundreds of breweries across the country, so we're very familiar with how they typically operate. Being told this was "state law" felt misleading or, at the very least, poorly explained. Also worth noting: they close at 9 PM every night, which is quite early for a place presenting itself as a brewery. In our opinion, this is much more of a restaurant than a brewery, and it would be better advertised that way. Thankfully, we found a nearby spot (Station 2 Bar by Zion Brewery) that was far more accommodating and gave us the brewery experience we were looking for
