I want to love this place, but every time I visit I see multiple health code violations. I wish the…read moreowner was more friendly so I could express my concerns without writing a review, but that's not possible. So here goes. It's a lovely store, and I want to support the effort to bring natural foods to this remote area. I'm here a lot and stop by every time...and regret it, lol. I would not eat prepared foods from here. Handwashing does not happen. I have witnessed countless cross contaminations, and it's just gross. Going from the register to the cafe section, using unwashed fingers with ultra long nails to reach into bins to grab ingredients for the smoothies, adjust her pants, grab a sticky bun with bare fingers, then back to the register to handle cash, and back to the cafe to make food again. Ack. This particular worker was friendly, albeit flighty and seemed to have had a past medical issue contributing to her disorganization and lack of attention to detail. Probably some training would be helpful, and oversight from the management. There was a younger woman restocking, but she couldn't be bothered to step in and help when it was busy, with customers wanting to check out while food and smoothies were being made. This is off putting; pack your patience. (And this hasn't changed each time I'm here!) The woman also had zero idea of ingredients, so if you have allergies, probably best to avoid. I asked if there was milk in the sandwich bread and the reply was "yes, it's veganaise on the sandwich." Ummmm. Ok. I asked if there was sour cream or any dairy in the chicken salad, and the reply was "yes, it's veganaise." Lol, ugh. (Veganaise is VEGAN, no dairy.) But I'm glad I wasn't able to order anything after watching her prepare orders for others. Best to get your sandwich fix at EscaLatte (Escalante Outfitters) or go up the road to the food trucks in Boulder.

We also sampled most of the cakes and the favorites were the Tres Leches and Blueberry Lemon. We also loved the staff. They were so helpful, inviting and quick to fix things.

Escalante is a town where thousands of tourists go through between Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef…read moreNational Park. Even if there is no care what a tourist has to say--one who will stop there only once or maybe twice in their life--there should at least be some quality control for the sake of the people living in that god forsaken town. The walls of the Golden Loop are plastered with nasty, bad attitude "bitch signs". Maybe one or two is funny, but not every single blank spot on the wall. The food, horrific. Granted I was expecting bad canned tuna laden in mayo when I ordered my tuna sandwich but I did not expect an option of wheat or white which caught me by surprise. But she served it on Wonder Bread anyway, with more mayo slathered on the bread. G ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and got a bacon sandwich. The bitches give you what food they feel like making. The bitch wallpaper should have been an indication. If you find yourself in Escalante, bear the hunger growl in your stomach and go down the road about 20 minutes. There is a lodge/cafe place sitting at the corner of a switchback. No, we did not eat there, but the view was breathtaking which sometimes makes your food experience better.

Came here early afternoon on our way to Torrey…read more I had the Loubird's vegan burrito with sweet potatoes, mushrooms, sautéed cabbage and pickled onions, and pinto beans. Very tasty. My BF had the Piccadillo burrito minus the cheese, with local spiced ground beef, pickled jalapeños & carrots, and he really enjoyed. We also got a side of fries which were very good, skin on. This is a charming place, you order from the cute cottage and collect your food from the turquoise blue chevy Bluebird bus. We sat outside on the patio with shade from a converted barn like shed. Service was great as well. Would highly recommend this place. There also a cute little gift shop with lovely local art and clothing on sale.

Delicious made to order burgers and fries…read more Everything was cooked to perfection. We got the Swiss mushroom and the jalepeno burgers. They each came with a generous amount of mushrooms and jalepenos. The burgers were deliciously charred and juicy. The fries were fresh and crispy with a great sauce. This was the best meal on the scenic byway 12. Service was friendly and quick. There's outdoor tables to use, but we ate in our car.

They are known for thick shakes and this was no lie. We devoured the chocolate shake in record time. Soooo thick but so creamy and it really hit the spot. This fun drive thru offers burger baskets that are served with fries and of course the famous Utah fry sauce. For those not in the mood for a burger, they also serve chicken, pork, and seafood baskets. Most importantly order that milkshake! Interesting story behind Nemo's which made us enjoy our time here even more (see story in posted pictures). Service was friendly and the location could not provide better views.

The atmosphere we convivial and the staff very attentive without being obtrusive. They gave a good sized food and drinks menu and you can start a tab if you'll be staying a while. I'll tell you that the pastrami panini was outstanding and really complimented by the Parmesan crusted fries. When I was finished eating I was sorry that I didn't have room for another sandwich. My experience with 4th West was excellent and I do recommend this pub whenever you're going through Escalante, Utah. One thing, they do not open until 5PM.

Nope! $10 for a single order of French fries!! Big portion of barely edible fries. Certainly they offer a large quantity instead of any quality. I've been forced to eat here several times before when everything else was closed. The food is just bland and overpriced. Like I said, "Last Resort".

We were staying at…read morethe adjacent Escalante Grand Resort and decided to check it out instead of driving into town for dinner. Super sweet folks working here who definitely care about the food they create and serve. They have full menus for breakfast, lunch and dinner with lots of yummy options. I had the daily special, which was pulled pork mac & cheese covered with crispy onions and a splash of BBQ sauce. Really tasty and filling. My wife enjoyed the loaded baked potato, filled with pulled pork, melted cheddar cheese, caramelized onions and sour cream. We also shared the beet salad, which included candies pecans and goat cheese. They have plenty of tables with a knockout view of the surrounding mountains. Definitely worth checking out before or after a day of adventuring in this great recreation area.

Walked inside at 8:40 (twenty minutes before the time they said they closed online) and they turned off the lights and were getting ready to leave.

So fair warning for all people driving through the area, they don't stay open for the advertised time.

There aren't many options in this little town, and subway happens to be my favorite fast food joint, so I'm happy to see it come as far as it has. Clean dining area, fresh veggies, friendly staff. The toaster used to ALWAYS be broken at this location, made me crazy! But I haven't had that issue the last 6 months I've been back here. The only thing I've found is that certain times of day my sandwich is way more put together, making it taste better in my opinion. In the evening it's kind of sloppy when I pick it up. It is young kids staffed in the evening so I'm not going to complain too terribly, just a heads up. Overall, I'm happy to finally be able to leave a good review here
