Trailhead Public House and Eatery Review & Menu Tips

Overview

About This Establishment

In a historic 1886 building, Trailhead Public House and Eatery serves hearty American pub fare with a lively, airy vibe. The Wagyu Hometown Beef Burger delivers a juicy patty with Swiss and caramelized edges; the Arches Reuben brings warm, charred notes from house-made kraut and Trailhead sauce. Fish & Chips crackles with beer-battered cod and crisp fries; Bread Pudding comes warm with ice cream and sauce. Outdoor upstairs patio offers scenic downtown Moab views and dog-friendly seating.
