15 Best Restaurants in Jackson Hole and Northwest Wyoming, Wyoming

A local institution, this bakery is the perfect place to grab a cup of coffee and quick breakfast to go or hang out for hours just people-watching. In the summer months, tables are adorned with wildflowers. Sandwiches, soups, homemade bagels, muffins, cupcakes, cinnamon rolls, and so much more will keep you coming back every morning of your stay in Lander.

Not only does Nana’s, which opened in 2023, offer fresh donuts and eight lanes of bowling, but it also has a full-scale diner serving up all the casual fare you’d expect at an amusement park. In fact, kids will love the arcade games and prizes. There’s also a mechanical bull and a golf simulator among other games. The owner, who also owns the National Museum of Military Vehicles down the road, goes out of his way to hire staff with special needs, and the establishment, albeit big and over-the-top, has been embraced by the community. 

Nora's is one of those inimitable Western places that has earned their keep as a local treasure among its many loyal customers. It's also earned the approval of Guy Fieri, who featured this little log inn on his show Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives in 2014. It's a great spot to fill up on a breakfast of sourdough pancakes or huevos rancheros. Expect hearty entrees such as trout amandine, prime rib, chicken-fried tofu, and Cornish game hen. For more casual fare, hit up Nora's pizza shack that serves New York-style pies. 

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.

Among the homemade, blue-ribbon dishes served at this small restaurant in downtown Dubois are sandwiches, steaks, buffalo burgers, chicken, pork, baby back ribs, and fish. For dessert the peach caramel crunch and chocolate bourbon pecan pie are guaranteed winners. You can also grab a hearty breakfast and sip hot coffee alongside the cowboy clientele.

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 trendy café is located in the historic 1918 Coolidge building and also has a small selection of beers, wines, and cocktails. With almost everything locally sourced, The Middle Fork sustainably serves up breakfast classics and lunch sandwiches (half-orders are an option for many dishes). 

Drop in for breakfast, lunch, or an early dinner at this mom-and-pop place that also has a saloon and a general store. Kitchen often closes early so as not to compete with the neighboring Mercantile. Hours vary, so call ahead to be sure, especially in the winter. 

In addition to a location in downtown Jackson, there’s a Pearl Street Bagels in this little wooden outpost just off Teton Pass Highway. The coffee and espresso here are always hot, the bagels are usually fresh (ask your barista which flavor came out of the oven last), and most of the spreads are homemade.

What Spur lacks in mountain views it more than makes up for with its memorable entrées like flavorful Skuna Bay blackened salmon. That said, it’s not uncommon for diners to fill up on starters and cocktails (both are excellent) and not even make it to their main meal. Recently renovated and located on the first floor of Teton Mountain Lodge, Spur also serves breakfast. With its buffalo bratwurst, the carnivore omelet is a good choice, but you also can’t go wrong with the huckleberry buttermilk pancakes. A retractable glass wall opens onto a patio for the summer months. 

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.
