    Coffee.  Decent.
    Robbie S.

    Here is the most honest review you'll get. We got here on Monday 9:20am. Stopped in because it was packed. We only waited 5 mins. Got seated but then had to wait awhile before we got asked if we wanted anything. Ordered 2 cups of 5 buck coffee. It was decent. Then we ordered a stack of pancakes (4). It was 15 bucks for very basic pancakes. Pricey. Ordered side of bacon (3) strips for 8 bucks. This was some of the best bacon I've ever had. Very very good. Ordered a omelette. Omelette was small but good. Toast was super cold. Potato's were cold and had very good flavors. Spicy. Perfect however cold. Overall this is not a typical greasy spoon restaurant. Good had great flavors but over priced. I most likely will never come again. 3 stars. Bacon was amazing. Vibe was excellent. Music. . Food was. Basic.

    Jailhouse is apparently an institution of Moab. It was a good breakfast/brunch place for what we wanted. It was good but not super special. Mostly typical eggs, omelets, pancakes and waffle. Fairly pricey, but comparable to other spots in town. If you like this kind of food, it's worth stopping in. Our service was friendly. And the restaurant itself was cute.

    We had a great experience at Jailhouse while in town! Our entire time was seamless, and the staff was amazing. The food was hot, delicious and quick! Would highly recommend coming here for a breakfast. We sat outside and it was a great vibe.

    Really good service is the hallmark of this place as are the pancakes. We tried the Swedish pancakes with lingonberry jam. They were very good - served hot and fresh, light and thin. While the flavor is the same as a regular pancake, the thinness was unique. We ate the chorizo scramble which was hearty and savory. Lattes were great! Friendly service and good, down home feel.

    Delicious breakfast in Moab! The ginger pancakes with the apple butter was phenomenal and the Benedict was flavorful. Even without a side of sausage or eggs, the pancakes were very filling. The tea was just Tazo, which was good but I was hoping for lose leaf for the price. Service was quick and the venue was quite charming. I appreciated that even in the new wing, they stayed true to the historic house with a metal relief ceiling nice touch.

    Chorizo burrito
    Jessie W.

    Great place to fuel up before hitting the Arches National Park. The chorizo burrito was hearty without being too heavy. The potatoes were great too with a southwest seasoning. Coffee was also very good. Others at the table enjoyed their meals as well. Not too long of a wait and service was good.

    Eggs florentine

    This cute little breakfast place was the perfect end to my Moab trip. A classic American style breakfast joint. I got a hot latte and the eggs florentine, both were great. My cousin got buttermilk pancakes and she loved them, super fluffy! They had lots of servers working, so we didn't wait long for our food and drinks. There was a short wait on a Sunday morning, but they still got us seated quickly. Awesome place!

    Chorizo eggs Benedict
    Stacey K.

    I saw best eggs Benedict claim here so I decided to try it since I am an eggs Benedict snob. I came at 10 am and was seated immediately, there was no line. The ambiance is cute coffee shop with a little feel of a diner. Server came right the way and I ordered macchiato coffee and the chorizo eggs Benedict. Coffee came right the way and it was absolutely delicious, great aroma and nice low acidity. The meal came shortly after with potatoes. I asked for extra hollandaise sauce as the chorizo was a little overpowering and I couldn't taste it and I love some good hollandaise. Ok hands down I have to say the hollandaise sauce was amazing. Light and fresh, perfect amount of spiciness and no cheating with flour. If you love eggs Benedict like me, there were 3 choices and if you love chorizo you have to try this ones!

    Kaizen burger

    I'm a breakfast lover and this is my way to go really delicious food the tri-colore is one of my fave Now they open for dinner and they 1/2 pounder Kaizen burger is amazing. I'll definitely recommend this place

    The Jailhouse cafe is a true historic site to Moab. Its menu consists of a Santa Fe flavor in its western style breakfast menu. The staff were really nice and friendly. They don't make you feel rushed to finish your meal, although busy. The Jailhouse has a bit of seating but there is additional seating that is covered outdoors. This is perfect for an early bird since it's open early in the morning and they close around 2pm for the day.
