    Small back patio with doggy access
    Jill A.

    The food was plentiful and filling and delicious. Definitely felt like I was eating a fresh chicken Philly rather than something that had been sitting around for a bit. I'll waiter was very diplomatic LOL when we asked him for recommendations he couldn't be selective. It was all on us to decide, but to be honest it looked like just about everything would be a hit. I'm glad they had a place for a dog because it's very hot to leave them in a car. However, that tiny patio is well, tiny. People and dogs are walking over each other just to get to their table. Time for an expansion!

    Cheese curds

    We stopped here after spending the day in Arches National Park. The staff here is VERY friendly! We sat at the bar as per our usual. The bartender was very attentive. They have a good selection of beer and cider. Food came out quick and it was very good! We had the cheese curds (they had a bit of "bite" in the seasoning) and we shared a fish and chips. There were 2 good sized portions of fish and LOTS of fries. Definitely put this stop on your list if you're in Moab.

    Churros
    Kristen B.

    Was extremely pleased with our experience! Visiting from out-of-state, we enjoyed pleasant staff and a wide variety menu. The Italian Chic was a unique sandwich formed with chickpeas, adding bruschetta among other flavors. I requested Swiss cheese be added=great choice! The side salad is no joke--beautiful assortment of greens as the base. Dessert? I heard the bread pudding is key, but we opted for the churros--not disappointed!! Would return!

    When you're here for dinner or last night. Place was busy early. It was chilly downstairs under the fans and cold upstairs under the air conditioning so we chose to get a table outside. I had the Reuben sandwich, which was both a tasty and hefty sandwich. Their hand cut fries were also great. We got a dessert to go, the Candy Bar Brownie Sundae, and it was marginal. Overall, we enjoyed the visit and the food.

    Seated promptly for a table of two on a Friday eve. Had the Moab red wine- super good- dry without being too dry. Split the special salad with Lemon chicken and veggies, sub warm chicken. Also split the wings (8), sauces on side- Buffalo (more zesty, super good with a kick) and parm garlic. Crispy- liked, friend loved. Service was great, food was solid and quick.

    Carne asada taco salad
    Jani M.

    Really enjoyed the food here and was sad that no one in town mentioned this place cause it is worth the stop. The portions are huge and the staff is friendly. I got the carne asada taco salad and their Sunday to eat. Everything came out quickly and tasted great.

    Totally forgot to take pics of the food. But here's the review. I'd say it's pretty good "bar" food. But pricey which is often the case in a vacation town. I had a burger melted with onions and mushrooms. And got a side salad to go with it. Others I was with enjoyed their food as well. The service was very good and the ambiance was more than adequate but not super special.

    Breaded cheese curds
    Claudia E.

    After several days in Utah and being extremely disappointed by literally everywhere we went out to eat, we figured we would give this place a try on our last day. We definitely saved the best for last! We were cold and tired from hiking and just wanted a nice comforting meal. We started with the breaded cheese curds. We are suckers for fried cheese and we thought these were pretty solid. My husband got the tapenade and salami sandwich, which he rudely didn't share, meaning it was good. I got the Reuben that I also didn't share, meaning it was good. We were each happy with our meals and portions. The ambiance was lively and the staff was exceptionally friendly. Shoutout to the hostess that let me take multiple pieces of candy from the bowl. Overall we had a great experience. Not the best restaurant in the world, but by leaps and bounds the best restaurant we found in the area!

    Discovered this place through Yelp. Sat in the cute bar area. Service was attentive and friendly. Our server answered all of our questions and was great at suggestions and following up. Ordered the poutine and Hot Trails burger. The burger was definitely the winner in taste and spice. We ordered it with sweet potatoes waffle fries, which were hot and crispy. Don't forget the arches sauce (think thousand island dressing) to help with the heat.

    Bread pudding
    Melanie W.

    Amazing food with lots of options. Friendly attentive service. A great location! All three things made this a great visit. We got their two best known dishes: fish and chips and the reuben. Both were really good. The fish was cooked perfectly. We finished with their bread pudding which was outstanding.

    Rueben & hometown burger
    Ali R.

    The food was absolutely amazing! I was craving a rueben & this was hands down one of the best. But what really made the experience stand out was the service. Brandon was absolutely top-notch! He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the entire meal. You can tell he genuinely cares about providing a great experience. Great food and even better service. I recommend!

    Bison poplar burger
    Samantha F.

    4.5 stars definitely loved this place! Keep in mind it's usually very busy so plan to get there at least 20 ish minutes before you want to actually eat so you can get on the waitlist! The hours were very confusing because the posted hours online and the posted in the window don match. We thought they would be closed and were so sad but then they were actually open so just keep that in mind also! We each got a bison burger and sweet potato fries they were so insanely good! Highly recommend this place. They are incredibly fast at getting the food out to you as well. Honestly only knocking it down from 5 stars because it's pretty pricey, we paid $70 after tip for 2 burgers with only water to drink.

    WE DID NOT EAT HERE .. Super disappointed to be turned away from Trailhead after hearing that it has the best burger in Moab. The restaurant was closing the next day for the Christmas week holiday and had sold out of food, so it was no longer seating in the restaurant. Not sure we'll be back to Moab or to Trailhead :-(

    The tomato soup was amazing! So creamy, flavorful, and easily one of my favorites! The reuben was great too!

    Are there any vegan Desserts?

    They offer popsicles which are likely vegan and they had a 'No Moo Vanilla' ice cream as well. They did have several dessert options when we visited and I'm guessing there were at least a couple of vegan sweet treats.

    Do they take reservations?

    Is this place dog friendly?

    Absolutely! Pups are welcomed on the patio!

    Proper Brewing & Burger - Chicken wings

    We decided to eat at Proper Brewing Company after receiving a recommendation from a local, and…read morewe're so glad we did! We were greeted right away, and the staff was friendly and professional. They recommended the buffalo chicken wings with blue cheese, and they were some of the best wings I've ever had. I'm still craving them! I highly recommend giving them a try. We all ordered burgers and loved them. The regular and sweet potato fries were excellent--crispy, not overly greasy, and soft in the middle. The sweet potato fries were waffle-cut, which made them especially crunchy and delicious. We also tried the poutine because we're visiting Canada next month and wanted something to compare it to. It may be an acquired taste! The bites with both gravy and cheese were really good, although I wasn't as fond of the fries with only gravy or the ranch-style sauce on top. We still enjoyed trying something different. I definitely recommend stopping in if you're looking for a quick, tasty burger and some amazing wings!

We ordered the fried pickle appetizer. It was ok. The pickle spears were sliced very thin and the coating was coming off most of them, but they were still good. We'd go back for sure.

    Kim from The Moab Adventure Center recommended The Spoke and I'm so glad we came for lunch…read more Our service was spectacular. We were immediately greeted by two employees. Water was brought to our table before I'd even put my purse down. Our ordered drinks arrived shortly after. The menu is great! I got the Hot Bird with a side salad and I'm not kidding when I say it was one of the best spicy chicken sandwiches I've had. The chicken breast was moist and there were no weird bits. The sauce was delicious, pickles crunchy, and the mini, tomato, and lettuce were great additions to an incredible sandwich. My side salad was big and fresh. It hadn't been sitting in a fridge for hours. The Mister got Bahn Mi and we were both very pleasantly surprised at how good tasty the sandwich was. The meat was warm and flavorful, the veggies were bright and crisp. It was excellent. The real surprise of the meal was the French fries. Think fair fries only thicker. They were so freaking good. Crunchy outside, piping hot and tender on the inside. Perfectly salty. I can't believe I'm raving over French fries but they were legit delicious. Cute space with indoor and outdoor seating options. The attached bar area also looked inviting. I would 1000% come here again.

    I save my 1 and 2-star reviews for really specific experiences, and if you're going to read any…read morereview before coming here, make it this one. Everything was honestly fine until we paid. After that, our server's entire demeanor changed and it became really uncomfortable really fast. He was visibly irritated, huffing and puffing, being more aggressive with things behind the counter, and just clearly did not want to be around us anymore. As we were leaving, I also overheard comments being made to another employee about our table, which made it even more awkward because it was obvious we were being talked about while we were still standing there. The way the whole interaction changed afterward felt really unnecessary and honestly pretty embarrassing. It was frustrating because the experience itself had been totally fine up until that point, but the ending completely changed how we felt about the place.
