    OMG! This place is the bomb! We were looking for a nice yet not terribly expensive place to eat lunch between appointments at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary (interment of our late dog Emma and volunteering in Cat World) when we found this gem right across the street from the hotel we were staying at (Parry Lodge)! The staff was exceedingly friendly, and the real kicker was that the food was FANTASTIC! Not expecting such a small town in rural Utah to have such amazing cuisine! We both had the Gourmet Grilled Cheese (white cheddar, gruyere, muenster, caramelized onions and rosemary) and I also had the tomato basil soup while hubby had a salad. Then I had a sugar cookie for dessert, which I reluctantly shared with hubby. It was that good! When we finished eating we went back and ordered three more cookies to go as well as a couple two-scoop ice cream cones. Our favorite flavor was cherry chip (not the traditional one you're thinking of, but cherry ice cream with chocolate chips)! I am still dreaming about that ice cream... I guess their "kanookie" skillet cookie, cookie dough, ice cream and topping extravaganza is fantastic (they have several pictures posted of people enjoying it)! Next time... and I guarantee there will be a next time, because we frequently visit Best Friends, and I promise we will be revisiting Brown Box!

    Great cafe in Kanab. The staff were friendly and food came out fast. Grilled cheese was perfectly toasted and paired well with the soup. Tried the Kanookie which was also very good. I'm usually a fan of a regular chocolate chip cookie but I actually preferred their double chocolate cookies (both regular and in the kanookie). Depending on the time of day and size of your group seating inside could possibly be an issue. Street parking out front (free).

    Pina Colada single scoop cone

    The ice cream here was suuuuper yummy! I had a pina colada flavor single scoop in a cake cone, and it was the perfect refreshing dessert on a hot summer day in Kanab. The shop itself is super cute, and while we ate our ice cream we looked at all the goods they also sell there. The service was also quite friendly, and we felt welcomed from the moment we came in to the moment we left. Next time we are in Kanab, we will be back!

    Kazookie (chocolate chip cookie dough & peanut butter cookie dough, a scoop of dirty Oreo, and hot fudge on top)

    Was planning my visit to the parks in Utah and came across Brown Box on TikTok and their "Kazookie"! It's a skillet cookie where you get to create it yourself by choosing which doughs, ice creams, and toppings you want. You can get small or large. When I arrived, I discovered it was the cutest place that also serves food. We were heading to Coral Pink Sands and only got the Kazookie, so I can't speak on the food, but the Kazookie is a MUST-DO 10/10! So yummy! Service was fast. If you're in Kanab and you're in the mood for a sweet treat, do it!

    This is the spot after a long hike! We came out here after a long day of exploring and this was definitely the right place to go! The space gave the energy we needed to keep going on our trip! The staff was welcoming and the space was cozy! The grilled cheese was served hot, gooey, crispy, and delicious! Not pictured cause we quickly ate it was the cookies and ice cream, it's a must seriously you will miss out if you skip it

    We were wandering the streets of Kanab looking for a light dinner. Our prayers were answered when we checked out Brown Box. In addition to being a popular ice cream spot they have a tempting array of dinner choices. We got the 3 way combo of salad and soup and cookie. Add a grilled cheese sandwich and we had all we needed for $20. Perfect! The young staff is enthusiastic and efficient. Highly recommended .

    We got the ice cream and the flavors were good, service was friendly but my husband said the ice cream had ice chunks in it like it was slightly freezer burned. They have tables outside. Very dog friendly!

    Chocolate ice cream

    Ice cream was too light and didn't taste any milk. Not sure they use milk at all for ice cream. I like a rich and creamy one.

    My wife and I are here the other day after a long day of hiking and driving. We wanted to stop somewhere simple and inexpensive. This place fit the bill! Be sure to try their ice cream served on a fresh cookie!

    Friendly staff, cute little shop, located right on the main street of town. We got two scoops of ice cream, Cadbury egg and peanut butter. The Cadbury egg was unique and I loved it! Big, generous scoops. Parking available in the back if you can't find street parking up front. We will be back!

    Stopped by this ice cream shop after a short hike. Ice cream was tasty and the service was good. The nice young man was nice and polite as well. The inside is nicely lit and decorated. The cookie was warm and freshly made. A nice hidden ice cream shop in kanab.

    Outside

    Such an awesome place! Staff is super nice and the building itself is super nice and inviting. Breadsticks were some of the best ever, and the grilled cheese was great for only being $6. Ice cream was solid, I got Cookie Monster and it tasted good but the texture was a little off. Still great overall though. It's a popular spot among the locals and does get crowded at times though, so just try not to go during peak dinner hours.

    Classic Grilled Cheese
    Joscelyn B.

    Met with a smile and a greeting! Order at the counter and find your seat. Went straight old school with the classic grilled cheese on sourdough and tomato soup. Great pull on the grilled cheese with the combo of cheddar and muenster. Tomato basil soup was as comforting as you expect tomato soup to be. Great space with some gift items and cozy decor.

    Tomato soup, pizza grilled cheese. Ice cream LONG GONE!

    You remember those old Reese's Peanut Butter Cup commercials?…read more "Hey! You got your chocolate in my peanut butter!" "No, you got your peanut butter in my chocolate!" That's basically what happened here, except instead of chocolate and peanut butter, it was an art gallery and a gastropub. Somehow it works. The vibe here is funky in mostly the right ways. The decor has a yard sale chic aesthetic that's somehow carefully curated without looking like it tried too hard. The staff had just enough piercings and tattoos for me know they would love to talk to me about their record collections if I asked, and the whole place manages to feel both laid back and just upscale enough that you can justify ordering anything from a burger to what looked like a pretty respectable ribeye. I went with the Shroom, a portobello mushroom burger, and it was enjoyable. Tons of flavor, perfectly satisfying, and paired with one of the crispest side salads I've had in a while. Bonus points for the edamame. I will happily eat edamame in just about anything. Not with jello though. Everyone at our table enjoyed their meals, although we collectively demonstrated the adventurous spirit of a group that mostly ordered the Pub burger. So I can't claim we've fully explored the menu yet. This just gives me an excuse to come back. Service was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The only moment that caught me a little off guard was when the owner stopped by to let us know he had baseball cards for sale in one part of the restaurant, along with an upstairs gallery featuring local artwork. I felt like he might next open his coat to show me some watches. He's just down for the hustle I guess. The art ranged from "that's pretty nice" to "someone really, really loves painting Utah's red rocks." Most of it was priced well beyond what I was looking to take home, but honestly, I have to respect that they're giving local artists a place to showcase their work. So maybe I'm just being a little grumpy. Get off my lawn. By the way I'd be happy to eat here again

Pistachio Chicken: The chicken breast was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a thin, crispy crust that was especially impressive. The sauce blended the mild aroma of Poblano chili, the creamy richness of butter, and the unique fragrance of herbs. Most precious was the pistachio aroma, both vibrant and subtle, without overpowering or masking the other flavors, creating a delicate balance. Even the saltiness was just right, subtle and delicate. The surface was garnished with pico de gallo, fresh, sweet, tangy, and spicy, balancing the potential heaviness of the sauce. The asparaguses were also very fresh, with a natural fragrance, but perhaps a little too mild with the sauce. Kanab Cowboy Ribs: The pork ribs were slow-cooked and roasted until they were so tender that they easily fell off the bone, offering no resistance when cutting into them. The homemade barbecue sauce coated it thickly, rich and sweet, with an authentic American barbecue flavor. It might be a bit too sweet for most Chinese palates, but I thought it was quite good. The agave mustard vinaigrette seemed more decorative; I nearly couldn't really taste it. Lemon Sorbet: Homemade sorbet, offering the most soulful finish. It was breathtakingly beautiful at first glance; the simple white porcelain plate and glass were limpid and elegant, perfectly matching the sorbet's style. Unlike typical sorbets that emphasize extreme acidity, this restaurant took a different approach, with a gentle, even subtle, acidity that brings out the natural, lively fragrance of lemon, like Lolita's touch through pale silk. The texture was also delicate and smooth, without any ice crystals. Everyone was captivated; some even ordered an extra to take away. The restaurant claims that ingredients come from its organic garden. This might be a pointless gimmick, but the cooking and presentation of the dishes conveyed a consistent level of refinement and care, making it all the more valuable.
