    I'd read about Persephone before our trip and marked it as a "must try" while in Jackson Hole. We walked over early (8am) on a Thursday morning to grab a cup of coffee and peruse the pastries. We were very surprised to find the line already went out the door! The line moved fast and boy you better be ready to order when you step up, because it is a fast moving, no messing around system. In addition there were at least three employees taking orders at the counter so the pastry case is extremely crowded and it's difficult to view what the options are. The employees weren't un-kind, but they there were no niceties like "good morning". They wanted to move you through the line quickly, so we didn't feel we could really peruse the pastries and so we skipped it and we just ordered a hot coffee and a large hot almond milk latte. People were already more than crowded inside waiting for their items so we stepped onto the patio. It was a chilly morning so the small fire pit was welcomed. For the giant crowd waiting we received our drinks within a reasonable time frame. They call names from inside behind the counter, so if you are not within 4 feet of the counter you will not hear them. We sat on the patio near the garden and the view was beautiful. My "large" latte was the same small size of my husband's drip coffee and both appeared to be around 12-14oz. Disappointing. The drip coffee was okay, but not worth returning for and my almond milk latte was also just okay. We maybe would have given Persephone another try, but in the end we chose to try the many other coffee/bakery shops in downtown. I'm not saying 'stay away', I'm just saying it's not as amazing as the hype. Other tips -look at the menu BEFORE you get in line, especially if it is buys -if you happen to snag an indoor seat realize there will be little to no privacy as the line will form right next to your table. -the birds outside are cute, friendly and will absolutely eat your food if you leave it unattended for even a moment - we saw a pack of small birds try to fly off with an entire egg croissant sandwich in the 1min the owner stepped inside for napkins. *don't worry, we stopped them

    Giving 2 starts for the Garden Area in the back, super cute! And full of flowers & small birds! Some ppl preferred Persephone over Cowboy Coffee.. so we decided to try it first. Was excited for the pastries, their window casing was full of amazing looking stuff! (I later learned... that if the casing is full -- this might mean two things? It's either not very good. Or it's not very fresh.) We got the cheddar scallion biscuit & blueberry muffin. They were both DRY and taste-less.. it's hard to mess up a Blueberry muffin! The muffin was not sweet, even with the crumble on top.. didn't taste like blueberries, it was just plain. The biscuit was hard as a rock, and was also dry.. you could barely taste the cheese. We also got their hazelnut lattes, the coffee was okay.. nothing special. I think a regular black coffee would have been better. Overall disappointing..

    Herbed fries
    Marcie G.

    What a beautiful quaint place! Delectable baked goods. We tried the huge salted chocolate chip cookie. Yummy! Service was good. You order and they bring to table by the number. I had the fresh herbed fries and my friend had beet salad. We both had the flavored ice tea. Everything was delicious.

    My group pulled up around 8 am on a Friday in mid July, and there was a line out the door. I knew this place was popular, so I wasn't too surprised. The line moved pretty quickly and gave us an opportunity to check out the menu. I was happy to see they had a fridge of beverages including Diet Coke. My husband got the egg sandwich and really likes it. I got a chocolate croissant and it was okay. I had asked for it warmed up and the girl said they make them fresh. This being her response had me under the impression that it would be fresh and warm, but the croissant wasn't warm at all and the chocolate had already harden. It was still good just not the experience I was looking for. Overall, I would go back for sure and probably order something from the kitchen next time. The outdoor seating area is totally gorgeous with lots of tables.

    Blueberry muffin with over cooked basecthat was dry.

    Persephone Bakery is a cute stand alone building just off the main square in Jackson, WY. We stopped in this small quaint space with many happy patrons enjoying their morning sweets. Space was limited so we elected to grab and go. A glass case displaying the baked good let you know that the selection of treats is vast. A blueberry and carrot cake type muffins were ordered from a middle age lady with a snippet attitude. Customer service is not one of her strong suits. The large muffins were packed with flavor and not over-sweet. The base of BOTH muffins were over-cooked, dry and stuck to the bottom wrapper. Persephone Bakery makes a large variety of good tasting baked goods. The dry and overcooked base sometimes happens. It was just a lack of attention at a vital step during the process. I hope you give Persephone Bakery a chance as they do know know about tasty treats. Perhaps the lady at the counter can find a job that better suits her snotty attitude.

    Cheddar & Chive Scone
    Dave W.

    This place showed up on every list of places to try for breakfast in Jackson, so we decided to give it a shot. It's a cute little building with very photogenic food, but it feels like its success is due to its Instagram-appeal as opposed to the quality of the food. I had a cheddar and chive biscuit that was pretty dry and did not have much flavor. My daughter's egg was undercooked and the cinnamon bun my daughter had looked appealing but the taste did not measure up.

    Cookie   Chocolate Chip
    Amanda J.

    Cute and clean little bakery with indoor and outdoor seating. Employees were very friendly. I tried the chocolate chip cookie (3/5) and oatmeal cranberry cookie (5/5). The chocolate chip cookie was a bit dry but I loved the oatmeal cranberry cookie. It was slightly crispy and tasted delicious. It was perfect with the white chocolate mocha (5/5).

    Eggs and bacon breakfast
    Janet R.

    Let me start off with the ambience, the bakery is very cute and inviting. If you sit outside during the cold, there are blankets you can use. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have some heaters throughout the outdoor seating. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with ham and it was delicious. My husband ordered the bacon and eggs. It was good but not a lot of food for the price. He ordered Americano and it was weak in taste. I ordered a tea. It came in a large tea pot, but only had one tea bag in it and therefore had little flavor. I would much rather have a cup of tea with one bag. Overall the food was very good, but a little on the pricey side for what you got. We don't have a problem paying for a good breakfast as long as the portions are reasonable. The service was great. Our orders came quickly and staff cleaned up after us in an appropriate time.

    I absolutely LOVE this place!! I saw it listed on several "places you have to try" online lists in Jackson hole. I love a bakery/sweet treats and a good coffee. This place has it all -- the drinks were fabulous, as were the pastries. They made me a tea latte fog-style, and I tried the Dubai chocolate latte - both so, SO good. The mixed berry frangipane tarte also changed my views on tartes forever. It was so good I bought two. They are pretty big and it's a lot of sugar so you can't come here too often but the next time I come to Jackson hole I will definitely still be coming for a drink and a treat! They have real food too - the croque madame was the best I've had, loved the flavors. The inside is super cute too and they have a lovely patio with heaters for the colder weather. The staff are all very sweet too, and move fast despite the place always being super busy and there being a line. You definitely don't feel forgotten despite all the business which is impressive. Bathrooms are clean too, and free spots parking right in front of the place. Could not rec this place higher, hope they're around for a good long time!!

    Interior

    We stopped in on our last day on the way out of town. The cafe was pretty busy at lunchtime on a May Monday. The interior was really cute and seemed intentional with all the decor and set up. We ordered one salad and one sandwich. Both of us liked our meals, but I will note that the sandwich doesn't come with anything, you have to pay for à la cart items. We also got 2 bakery items to go and enjoyed those as well. I would recommend the place if in town

    Sweet Potato & Fried Brussel Sprout hash
    Wendy B.

    Local popular spot! Sweet Potato & Fried Brussel Sprout hash - would almost love it if it's less saucy. The bottom was sorta soaked in sauces, made the dish quite heavy. Grilled Cheese was tasty too.

    Outside

    We stopped by this coffee bakery expecting a cozy experience and some fresh pastries. The food had its highlights, I'll give it that. The grilled cheese was genuinely tasty, and I really liked the cortado. The pecan pie was fine -- not outstanding, but enjoyable enough. The croissant, though, was disappointing. It was served cold, not warmed up at all, and surprisingly, they don't even offer a plain croissant. It may sound like a minor detail, but when you're paying bakery-level prices, those details count. The bigger problem, however, was the service -- especially the brunette woman at the counter. From the second we approached, the atmosphere felt unfriendly. No smile, no greeting, no eye contact. There was no willingness to assist, no recommendations, and no sense of hospitality whatsoever. Her expression stayed cold the entire time, and it honestly felt like we were inconveniencing her simply by ordering. To top it off, it took nearly five minutes just to get a basic receipt, with no explanation or acknowledgment. And that's the thing about customer service -- it shapes the entire experience. A café can have great coffee, appealing food, and a beautiful interior, but when the first interaction feels distant and unwelcoming, it overshadows everything else. Staff members are the face of a business, and when customers leave feeling ignored or unwanted, it leaves a lasting impression for all the wrong reasons. Beautiful space and some solid food, but service is what defines whether people return -- and unfortunately, this experience made us not want to come back.

    Mocha and breve
    Penny S.

    This is a very cute bakery and coffee shop. We got there late morning so they didn't have as many pastries as they probably did earlier. My husband and I shared a chocolate croissant and an apple pastry, and got coffee to go with us (mocha and breve). The pastry dough tasted devine-buttery sweet. I cut each pastry in half and was a little dismayed to see so little chocolate in the chocolate croissant (see my photo). We liked the apple one better. So good! The mocha had a weird taste (almost like Mexican vanilla but I'm not sure what it actually was) and the breve was respectable but as I write this 2 days later it isn't memorable. We noticed some good-looking sandwiches people were eating for an early lunch. I'd love to try them sometime.

    Do they have cakes?

    What kind of gluten free options?

    They have a gf double chocolate cookie that is delicious. They have a rotating menu but I can always find a couple breakfast items that are gluten free and a few salads.

    I've been calling here for two days to see if we can get outdoor seating but no one picks up. Any suggestions?

    They do have a small deck that has outside seating.

Make sure to clarify when ordering this as we were confused and never heard of it before. The salmon cream didn't have a strong flavor, maybe the cream cheese was pretty overpowering. I did prefer the sandwiches over the cream cheese bagels. There is a thick layer of meat but not much sauce on either sandwich so I would recommend asking for either extra or on the side. The bagels itself were a little on the thicker side, they were toasted but not much as seen from the pictures. They were pretty doughy, not a personal favorite. The workers were nice and gave recommendations for favorites. They also were pretty fast so it didn't take long to go in and out.

Turns out Cloudveil is only open between June-ish and before winter, and I came late May 2026 so they weren't open yet. However, the nice folks at the bistro were able to serve me without a reservation (restaurant was about 2/3 full). The food was a little high but not crazy for a sit down restaurant and given I wasn't all that hungry, it was the perfect amount of food. They serve fresh bread with butter spread before your entree and it is so, so lovely! I ended up getting one of their appetizer salads with fresh fruit on a bed of roast veg, and I got two drinks - the "Rose French 75" ($16 - has alcohol) and "the inversion" ($11 - mocktail version of the "Jackson fog" cocktail). I can genuinely say both drinks but particularly the inversion were two of the best drinks I've had; the flavor was perfectly sweet, just a bit floral, and distinct from any other drink I've had (which is something I love to experience!). They paired great with the salad and the bread. They were also sweet enough I didn't even need dessert (although the huckleberry cheesecake and the bread pudding were tempting). I would go here again just to get another inversion mocktail if nothing else. It's a lovely place to have dinner and just enjoy the ambiance near Jackson square - highly recommend!!

Dressed up and on reservation, we arrived a tad early and were promptly greeted. Maybe hospitality isn't Wyoming's forte, but all of the staff did not seem happy to see nor serve us from the beginning. The booking site only offered high top tables, so that's what I selected. When the hostess asked if we'd like to switch to a table, she was sternly corrected in front of us that it "wouldn't be possible" by another staff member. The interaction felt unprofessional in front of guests, and as if they weren't willing to accommodate us. On top of that fiasco came plenty of glares and stares from staff throughout our visit. Crawfish & Dumpling - 9/10 For the table. Pungent; a few bites satisfy. I've never had crawfish in this setting. Perfect gnocchi. Delicious all around. Oyster Shooter - 8/10 Fairly priced, fresh.

It's a carrot salad with a bite of meat and maybe 5 ravioli. Bar Steak - One came overcooked and one under. Sides were mediocre. Uninteresting mashed potatoes. Our waitress tried to take our order almost immediately after being seated. She visited few times after ordering. With a 5:30 reservation, we left by 5:57 thanks to the small portions and staff seeming to rush us out. In a tourist destination, I would imagine better hospitality and warmth from local workers. Not many smiles here. I typically tip well, but they didn't seem to want us there and the experience really dampened my entire party's mood.
