    Outside

    We stopped by this coffee bakery expecting a cozy experience and some fresh pastries. The food had its highlights, I'll give it that. The grilled cheese was genuinely tasty, and I really liked the cortado. The pecan pie was fine -- not outstanding, but enjoyable enough. The croissant, though, was disappointing. It was served cold, not warmed up at all, and surprisingly, they don't even offer a plain croissant. It may sound like a minor detail, but when you're paying bakery-level prices, those details count. The bigger problem, however, was the service -- especially the brunette woman at the counter. From the second we approached, the atmosphere felt unfriendly. No smile, no greeting, no eye contact. There was no willingness to assist, no recommendations, and no sense of hospitality whatsoever. Her expression stayed cold the entire time, and it honestly felt like we were inconveniencing her simply by ordering. To top it off, it took nearly five minutes just to get a basic receipt, with no explanation or acknowledgment. And that's the thing about customer service -- it shapes the entire experience. A café can have great coffee, appealing food, and a beautiful interior, but when the first interaction feels distant and unwelcoming, it overshadows everything else. Staff members are the face of a business, and when customers leave feeling ignored or unwanted, it leaves a lasting impression for all the wrong reasons. Beautiful space and some solid food, but service is what defines whether people return -- and unfortunately, this experience made us not want to come back.

    Eggs and bacon breakfast
    Janet R.

    Let me start off with the ambience, the bakery is very cute and inviting. If you sit outside during the cold, there are blankets you can use. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have some heaters throughout the outdoor seating. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with ham and it was delicious. My husband ordered the bacon and eggs. It was good but not a lot of food for the price. He ordered Americano and it was weak in taste. I ordered a tea. It came in a large tea pot, but only had one tea bag in it and therefore had little flavor. I would much rather have a cup of tea with one bag. Overall the food was very good, but a little on the pricey side for what you got. We don't have a problem paying for a good breakfast as long as the portions are reasonable. The service was great. Our orders came quickly and staff cleaned up after us in an appropriate time.

    Blueberry muffin with over cooked basecthat was dry.

    Persephone Bakery is a cute stand alone building just off the main square in Jackson, WY. We stopped in this small quaint space with many happy patrons enjoying their morning sweets. Space was limited so we elected to grab and go. A glass case displaying the baked good let you know that the selection of treats is vast. A blueberry and carrot cake type muffins were ordered from a middle age lady with a snippet attitude. Customer service is not one of her strong suits. The large muffins were packed with flavor and not over-sweet. The base of BOTH muffins were over-cooked, dry and stuck to the bottom wrapper. Persephone Bakery makes a large variety of good tasting baked goods. The dry and overcooked base sometimes happens. It was just a lack of attention at a vital step during the process. I hope you give Persephone Bakery a chance as they do know know about tasty treats. Perhaps the lady at the counter can find a job that better suits her snotty attitude.

    Interior

    We stopped in on our last day on the way out of town. The cafe was pretty busy at lunchtime on a May Monday. The interior was really cute and seemed intentional with all the decor and set up. We ordered one salad and one sandwich. Both of us liked our meals, but I will note that the sandwich doesn't come with anything, you have to pay for à la cart items. We also got 2 bakery items to go and enjoyed those as well. I would recommend the place if in town

    Persephone Bakery -- 2 Stars The food had its moments, I'll give it that. The grilled cheese was genuinely good -- probably the best thing we ordered. My wife got a cortado and she really enjoyed it. The pecan pie was okay, nothing special but not bad either. However, the croissant was a letdown -- it came out cold, not warmed up at all, and on top of that, they don't even offer a plain croissant. Only chocolate. For a bakery, that's a pretty basic miss. My hazelnut latte was disappointing. It was overly sweet and had an artificial flavor to it that I couldn't get past. Nobody asked me about sugar level or customization -- it just showed up that way. Small thing, but it matters when you're paying bakery prices. Now the service -- that's the real problem, and it starts with the brunette-haired lady at the counter. She had zero warmth from the moment we walked up. No smile, no greeting, no eye contact. Yes, it was loud near the counter, but instead of making any effort to hear me out, she just kept repeating "sorry" without actually trying to understand what I was ordering. She showed no interest in helping, offered zero suggestions, and wore a cold poker face throughout the entire interaction. It felt like we were bothering her just by being there. It took her a full five minutes to hand over a simple receipt, with no explanation or apology. Here's the truth about hospitality -- it doesn't matter how good the food is. When you walk into a café and the person at the front gives you a cold, unwelcoming experience, that first impression poisons everything. The food could be amazing, but you won't remember it that way. The people representing a business are the face of it, and when that face tells you that you're not valued, it sends one clear message -- it's not worth coming back. That's exactly how we left feeling. And then the tip screen gets shoved in your face before you've even sat down. Bold move for zero hospitality. Nice space, some decent food -- but service makes or breaks a place, and this one broke it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Cinnamon Brioche and cuppucino
    Gerald N.

    3.5 stars. Solid but not life changing. For a small town, it was very busy. Small inside but the staff is well-trained to keep it moving. Small waiting area. Some seating inside and outside. Had a cinnamon brioche which was flaky, messy, dry but with a hint of cinnamon sugar. Cappuccino is small as its standard size. Overall, good to try once but I probably won't be back unless with others who want to try.

    We had Lattes here two mornings in a row. I had their Pistachio Latte and a Vanilla Latte. We also had their Egg Sandwich on Croissant. Everything we had was excellent. The place itself is incredibly inviting and impeccably designed. Service was fast and efficient. We were so enamored with Persephone that we brought home two mugs to remember our visits!

    Sweet Potato & Fried Brussel Sprout hash
    Wendy B.

    Local popular spot! Sweet Potato & Fried Brussel Sprout hash - would almost love it if it's less saucy. The bottom was sorta soaked in sauces, made the dish quite heavy. Grilled Cheese was tasty too.

    Mocha and breve
    Penny S.

    This is a very cute bakery and coffee shop. We got there late morning so they didn't have as many pastries as they probably did earlier. My husband and I shared a chocolate croissant and an apple pastry, and got coffee to go with us (mocha and breve). The pastry dough tasted devine-buttery sweet. I cut each pastry in half and was a little dismayed to see so little chocolate in the chocolate croissant (see my photo). We liked the apple one better. So good! The mocha had a weird taste (almost like Mexican vanilla but I'm not sure what it actually was) and the breve was respectable but as I write this 2 days later it isn't memorable. We noticed some good-looking sandwiches people were eating for an early lunch. I'd love to try them sometime.

    Sweet Potato Hash with kale and and egg
    Jeff T.

    Stopped one morning because I was pretty sure their coffee would be good. I wasn't wrong. Be advised, there is not a ton of indoor seating but they do have a patio that is a great escape if the weather is just right. There is usually a line out the door, but I am glad I waited it out. The cute little concerted house is much better than any chain coffee you may be used to. The service is good and while my blueberry muffin did not hit the spot, the special I ordered which had egg, Jake and a sweet potato has sure did. This was delicious bowl of goodness and while I don't think it is on the website menu, I am glad I tried it. The muffin just wasn't a traditional moose and sweet treat. Maybe I got a dud. Overall, Persephone has a lot to choose from and great coffee so give it a whirl.

    Kasia W.

    Amazing latte and incredibly cute vibes! Love the way this place is decorated! The only reason I'm taking off one star is because the ham and Swiss croissant had almost no ham at all, maybe one very thing slice which was disappointing. Would come back for the coffee or to try a different pastry though!

    Seeded avocado bowl
    Apex S.

    So much hype. Even at 7 am when the temperature was in the 40s, there was a line outside. And yes, we waited in it! Thankfully it moved quickly and we were able to not only order at the counter but also find a couple of seats soon after. We got the caramel apple croissant (looks more like a tart), an iced pumpkin spice latte, the smoked salmon bowl, and the ricotta omelette. Loved the salmon bowl - great flavors, portions, though expensive. The omelette was bland and it felt like the ingredients didn't go well together. The latte was tasty (couldn't taste the pumpkin though) and the croissant was good too. They kept the bakery quite chilly, so much so that the butter on my omelette solidified midway! I'd say this is a fine bakery to visit but I would be ok skipping it if there's a loooong line!

    Do they have cakes?

    https://persephonebakery.com/pages/pastry-menu

    What kind of gluten free options?

    They have a gf double chocolate cookie that is delicious. They have a rotating menu but I can always find a couple breakfast items that are gluten free and a few salads.

    I've been calling here for two days to see if we can get outdoor seating but no one picks up. Any suggestions?

    They do have a small deck that has outside seating.

I have been past this establishment many times have never been until today. When I walked in the store was clean and bright but nobody greeted me.

We were in Jackson for 4 days and we found ourselves in The Bread Basket 3 times. It's a Mexican bakery and we tried just about everything in the cases.

We also brought home a bunch of tamales, oh my gosh, they are sooo good try the Salsa Verde con Pollo. Spicy deliciousness. Because everything in the national parks were closed, if you're going to be in the park all day you must bring your own food. We ordered their sandwiches for one of our Yellowstone trips. (BTW Yellowstone was virtually empty of people, see my review for Yellowstone for more info). The sandwiches were gourmet wonderful. I ordered the turkey with pesto, brie and dried cranberries on a fresh ciabatta type bread. Perfect. The staff is friendly, the shop is clean.
