    Vegan hash
    Dax S.

    Love! I came here because I'm vegan and GF and they had a whole separate menu. I ordered the vegan hash (the server verified with the kitchen that the sausage was gf). I did want to share because it wasn't exactly what I expected, but it was 100% delicious. It was more a big bowl of red pepper sausage with some cubed potato (maybe I don't know what hash Is but I expected more of a shredded potato hash scramble and the red pepper was a surprise). Anyway, it was good and I decided to take a pic half way through and share. Also had a hazelnut latte and it was quality

    Such sweet staff serving up delicious food in a really cute hidden gem! I went in a group with my in laws, wife and son. They were very friendly and pushed a table together to fit us all comfortably. We all ordered different things after much debating because they have so many choices. My wife has a black pepper allergy and they went above and beyond to make her a savory meal without it! Most places can't or won't adjust for that so she's stuck with pancakes. Everyone in our group really enjoyed their meal, clean plates all around. You will NOT be disappointed and we will certainly be back soon!

    I was headed up there to pick something up. We decided to eat local and what better place then at The Local? Upon walking up, with the folks outside with their pups, to being greeted and seated, the experience was awesome! Our server Sarah, was pleasant and matched our obvious out of town energy. The inside was bright, but muted, if that makes any sense? The walls were pastel with cute art hung around, whereas the seats were brightly colored and the tables were white. My company thoroughly enjoyed the green chili biscuits and gravy with a side egg. I enjoyed my omelet although, more enjoyed the potatoes as I could tell they were seasoned before smashed. The coffee kept me up all night and if I am back around, I'm likely to visit again. What a great place!

    As usual, The Local did not disappoint. Amazing Eggs Benedict with cottage cheese & the bombon was perfect. Molly had a lovely vegan breakfast. Very friendly service. Love, love, love this place.

    Biscuits & Green Chile Sausage Gravy
    Keith M.

    I got to my regular breakfast joint a little late and they were closed, so this place looked good. Bright and cheery with colorful chairs got me in a pretty good mood since I was a little bit hangry. The green chili was recommended by the server, so I went for it. Biscuits and green chili sausage gravy with a fried egg on top! Really good. I'm happy that I had the opportunity to try a new place.

    Steak & Eggs
    Nicole B.

    Hands down, one of the worst dining disasters I've endured. Shoutout to the waitress for trying, but the chefs thought raw steak and eggs were the pinnacle of culinary innovation--not once, but twice. If I were a cannibal, maybe I'd find it hilarious, but alas, it was just a tasteless and wallet-draining joke.

    Spelt blueberry pancakes

    We had a really nice breakfast. We all liked the bright colors. Our waitress was really nice. We all got pancakes. I got spelt blueberries pancakes and potatoes, my wife got skinny pancakes and loaded potatoes, one of my kids got skinny pancakes and one got fat pancakes and they shared a side order of bacon. We all enjoyed everything. They gave the kids a cookie on the way out.

    The biscuits & green chile gravy were FANTASTIC. The biscuits are the perfect texture. The hash potatoes are a great side- and ask for some of the green hot sauce for those!

    It's empty for a reason. Run!
    Florabelle C.

    The stars are actually only for the service because the servers were great. Other than that, if you can avoid this place, RUN as the reviews does not match the food. I should've read the latest reviews before coming here. Apparently the owners have changed and they must have changed the cook as well because the food was so dry. If you have no choice, you can come here just to eat, but don't expect to be satisfied with the taste. Food was cold and coffee was warm. After eating and paying the bill, you'd wish you just went home and cook your own food. The fruit looked and tasted old. I wasn't happy with the dry tortilla, sour verde sauce, and cold coffee. My husband asked for over easy eggs, but it wasn't- well the other egg was. I can't explain what they could improve on. Maybe, just get a new cook and lower the prices. If you could avoid this place, you should just go to McDonald's and save your money.

    I've been to The Local several times over the last few years, and the food is always flavorful and the service is fantastic. It's got a great open vibe, although it can get a bit noisy if that's an issue for you. Pro tip: sign up for their emails or text messages to get discounts for the whole meal!

I got the Breakfast Tacos and my wife got the Salazar skillet. We both really enjoyed our meals. For my tacos, I had one green chile brisket, one chorizo, and one carne adovada. They were all excellent, but I'd highly recommend the carne adovada. My wife really enjoyed her skillet. We both agreed that next time, we would each probably pick different items, but only because there were so many things on the menu that sounded really good! We went closer to lunchtime on a weekday and there was no wait, but I could see there definitely being a wait at breakfast time on the weekend, as the interior is small and has only about six tables. But it would be well worth the wait. We will definitely be back.

The homemade mixed berry jam is delicious. But that's sort of where the good stuff ends. The coffee has no taste, the sausage is a weird squished down link, and the pancakes lacked fluff. Our waitress was nice but kept forgetting things- never got water, got syrup instead of jam, didn't know the answers the questions. She seemed constantly rushed. Inside is cute, some cute little coffee art on the walls. All in all, it's not somewhere I would frequent again.

In my opinion, The Clinkscale has the best breakfast tacos I have ever tasted. Everything tastes fresh, and I like their coffee, too. Their other menu items look great as well, so I will have to try another food item the next time I am in Jerome. I like how the atmosphere makes you feel like you are taking a trip back in time, as the building has been around for a while. The best part about The Clinkscale, however, is the service. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and more than happy to offer suggestions. I remember when my family and I went up there a few years back, and our server, Jeff, made us feel right at home. The other staff members are also great, as they make everyone feel welcome within the establishment. I have been back there a couple of times since then, and I have had a wonderful experience each time. Next time I am in Jerome, I look forward to visiting again and encourage anyone in the area to stop by and check it out.

Sandwich was very filling with excellent flavor! The sandwich was a bit messy as it was too large for biting into. The soup was the right temperature and definitely flavorful.

Unfortunately, the experience was really brought down by the behavior of the staff\. The kitchen staff were extremely loud, obnoxious, and disruptive--loud enough that it affected what should have been a relaxing meal\. What made it even more frustrating was seeing the manager seemingly fooling around rather than actually managing the situation\. Eventually, a short\-haired older woman had to step in and get control of things, and she seemed to be the only person taking the problem seriously. I was also really taken aback when I overheard the male server say that "it wasn't his job to make people happy\." That is an unbelievable attitude to hear from someone working in hospitality\. It honestly seems silly to put young people who are still displaying juvenile behavior in charge of running things\. Age itself isn't the problem--maturity and professionalism are\. If someone is given a management position, they should be setting the tone for the staff, not joining in with the fooling around\. For a restaurant with such wonderful food and such a cozy atmosphere, this was disappointing\. The food absolutely deserves praise, but the restaurant would benefit tremendously from mature, professional management that keeps the staff focused and understands that the guest experience matters\.
