7 Best Restaurants in Jackson, Jackson Hole and Northwest Wyoming

The best seating at this rustic-contemporary bakery café a short stroll east of Jackson Town Square is on the spacious, shaded deck overlooking lively Broadway Avenue. Choose from an extensive menu of eclectic breakfast and lunch fare, including egg peperonata, brioche French toast with seasonal fruit compote, and one of the best jambon-beurres you'll find outside of Paris. At the very least, you need to try a plain croissant, made with 100-percent European butter. Persephone is a good, albeit pricey, stop for pre-sightseeing picnic supplies, too. There's another location in Wilson, too.

Smoked pork shoulder served with an array of house sauces and mouthwatering prime beef brisket are the specialties at this busy barbecue joint, which evokes the Old West with its wooden booths, Western paintings, and antique signs. Sandwiches and salads (try the homemade barbecue ranch dressing) are also available. This is also one of the best breakfast options in Jackson, but there can be long waits in summer or winter. Desserts include homemade chocolate buttermilk pie and ice cream. 

Lunch is served year-round and dinner is served in summer, but it's the breakfasts and home-baked pastries that are irresistible here. It's elbow to elbow inside, so you may have to wait to be seated on busy mornings, but any inconvenience is well worth it. In summer there's outdoor seating.

Dinner at Figs, which is on the first floor of the hip Hotel Jackson, is a hot reservation in a town with no other options for Lebanese food. For breakfast, you can’t go wrong with the shakshuka, but the best way to do lunch or dinner here is to order a bunch of small plates to pass around and maybe get a kebab or shawarma to share. There are only a handful of tables and a few booths, so it is especially busy on weekends, when you are unlikely to land a spot without a reservation.

This cute log cabin juicery, next door to Persephone Bakery and founded by a wellness coach with a cultlike following, offers an array of 100% organic made-to-order cold-pressed juices. Coffee-wise, they can make any espresso drink (even a latte with mushrooms). The food menu includes salads and bowls featuring "superfoods," as well as breakfast sandwiches, served all day. 

This posh, and equally pricey, slopeside establishment in the Four Seasons opened in July 2025. While the raw menu boasts a dreamy caviar trio and Wyoming's best attempt at a seafood tower, the melt-in-your-mouth steaks are the real draw here. Opt for the wagyu trio tasting if you want to sample a smattering. Besides beef, you'll also find elk, Idaho trout, Alaska salmon, bison, and pork on the menu. Vegetarians can get by with a risotto or a few sides. While Steadfire Chophouse serves breakfast, too, at eye-popping prices, you’re best saving your budget to splurge at dinner.

Although the crowd here skews older (think baby boomers, not millennials), this is a restaurant where you go for the food, not the vibe. It’s located inside the Wyoming Inn, so there’s no outdoor space, but it’s a cozy place to dine in the winter, and there’s a full-service bar. The food menu is short at only one page, but it’s still hard to decide between entrees like brown butter diver scallops, pumpkin pasta, and Rocky Mountain elk tenderloin. The restaurant closes early, at 9 pm, but it is open again at 7 am and offers some of the most reasonably priced breakfast entrées in Jackson.
