Springdale Restaurants

Make room for a Springdale meal

Springdale has more than one answer to a canyon-day appetite: Southwestern plates at Oscar's Cafe, burgers and local beer beside Zion Canyon Village, or a garden-patio dinner at Bit & Spur. The choice is between different kinds of meals, not just the nearest table to the park.

Oscar's is in central Springdale, near the town's hotels and shuttle stops. Farther north, Zion Canyon Brew Pub puts a casual patio meal beside the pedestrian entrance. Zion Lodge dining belongs to another setting entirely: inside Zion Canyon.

Breakfast plates at Oscar's

Choose Oscar's Cafe for a substantial breakfast in town. Its burgers and Southwestern fare also make it an option when the meal comes after the hike rather than before it.

Burgers and beer by the entrance

Zion Canyon Brew Pub pairs pub fare and local beer with a patio beside Zion Canyon Village. It suits a casual return-to-town meal without making dinner a separate occasion.

A garden-patio dinner at Bit & Spur

Southwestern and Mexican-inspired cooking gives Bit & Spur a different dinner focus from the brewpub. Choose between its dining room and garden patio; reservations are available.

Inside Zion Canyon

A meal beneath the lodge's canyon walls

Red Rock Grill is Zion Lodge's full-service dining room, with breakfast, lunch, and dinner and views from the lodge terrace area. Castle Dome Cafe offers counter-service breakfast and lunch. Both are inside the canyon, not on Springdale's restaurant strip.

These are meals to consider during time already spent in the park. For breakfast before entering Zion, keep the choice in town. Check seasonal lodge service and the park shuttle schedule before committing to a canyon dinner.
