    Herb Mayonnaise Chicken Sandwich with fries
    Joseph P.

    Embarking on an adventure at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, I needed accommodation for a morning mule ride. Upon arrival at the inn, the entrance was bustling and somewhat disorganized, with guests purchasing cookies, store items, and ice cream. To check in, one had to navigate to the far left through the crowd, which was challenging due to the lines crisscrossing in every direction. However, once the more assertive guests had their needs met, I found the process straightforward. After an easy check-in, I grabbed some cookies before heading to my cabin, indulging in two of them en route to the restaurant. The S'mores and Snickerdoodle were exceptional, especially the S'mores. Despite a wait, being seated at a window table was a delight. I perused the menu and chose the Herb Mayonnaise Chicken Sandwich with fries. It was served promptly and proved to be quite tasty.

    I'm guessing that this place is usually hopping during warm weather, but at this time there was not much happening and even the coffee dispenser wasn't working. I stopped here for the legendary cookies which weren't very legendary. I had the edges only of a chocolate chip and an oatmeal raisin...meh. However, I loved sitting near the roaring fire.

    This is my first stop to Jacob's lake Inn restaurant. I've heard about these cookies from family members who've been here before. They have quite a selection of cookies. My husband had the peanut butter cookie and he thought it was really pretty good. I had the raspberry lemon cookie and felt it was a little bit dry. There were lots of snacks and I don't think the restaurant was open that day. This is a good spot to stop at if you are coming off the north rim and are looking for some thing to eat. I think they are closed during the winter months so just be aware of that. I will see you the next time I'm coming through.

    After my meal at the counter, I got some cookies to go and shopped for some gifts! Nice stopping place on the way out of Grand Canyon north rim!

    Yummy cookies.

    This review is for the homemade baked goods. We were so surprised to find the professionally made muffins, cookies, and turnovers. I have driven by the Jacob Lake store countless times over the years and never stopped. What a mistake. This family run operation is super friendly and the cookies are fantastic. I loved my blueberry turnover.

    Cute beverage glass

    Excellent food and service! Three of us had different sandwiches, and loved them all. I highly recommend this local spot.

    My grandma said this place had good cookies so we stopped at this place on the way to the North Rim to get cookies.

    Jacob Lake Inn is a great place to stay when you're going to the north rim of the Grand Canyon…read more There are not many other places to stay in the area but there are a few that are open the same season as the National Park's North Rim season (May-Oct.) However, Jacob Lake Inn is open all year round. They have a cute store and restaurant on site as well as a gas station so there is everything you'd need. The rooms are clean and nicely decorated in a western/Grand Canyon/woodsy theme. For being out in the middle of nowhere, the hotel has all the same amenities you'd expect to see in a city. It's nice to have that in the middle of the woods feeling but without having to camp. The prices are reasonable and everyone working there is always super nice. Plus the history of the place is pretty cool too!

    The staff were very friendly and nice. For dinner we ordered salad and literally waited an hour for…read morethem. They were okay. For breakfast the wait was a little shorter, but none of us thought it was very good. The eggs tasted off, the potato scramble was very heavy on the potato and didn't look to have any egg in it. The bread was touted as homemade but one of us got burnt bread and it was a tiny piece that sort of broke apart as you tried to eat it. One of us asked for another slice and we were charged another $3-4. We tried two of the cookies and thought they were okay. They are the only place around so it there or bring your own.
