Avocado Bagel topped with guac; Lavender Maple Latte steals the show.

The Elk Burger delivers a juicy, gamey bite with solid char, while Pub Fries crunch under a blanket of beer cheese. Pub Pretzel Sticks snap when dunked in a sharp, homemade mustard. The outdoor patio puts Zionβs rock-and-river backdrop to work, and the Summer Berry Salmon salad stays crisp after a hike. This joint mixes casual dining with a beer-forward menu that travels well after a day in thepark.
Skip the generic bites, get the Elevated Elk Burger. For beer, order Springdale Amber.
