Jailhouse Cafe

 

Update June 2016: This is still a great restaurant. Huge portions of food and reasonable prices. The outdoor seating has heaters on the ceiling. The mornings in the desert can be chilly. You’ll be comfortable in the outdoor arrangement.

Located in a building that was once the courthouse for the area in the late 1800’s it also served a jail for the defendants awaiting trial. Like any building converted into a restaurant the indoor seating is in small rooms which is fine. There is quite a bit of outdoor seating. The place only serves breakfast. When you specialize on one meal in tends to be good. Jailhouse is no exception. The food is excellent.  The staff is also very friendly and maybe the best I experience while in Moab. The food comes out fast and with a smile.

Favorite Dish: Each time I go to the Jailhouse I get the Jailhouse Chorizo Scramble. Their description, three lightly scrambled eggs with seasoned potatoes, strips of white corn tortilla and choriza sausage with sour cream and salsa. My description is pure pleasure. The chorizo has just the right amount of spice. Love it!
