    Chicken pesto sammy and side salad with bathable white balsamic dressing.
    Degana F.

    What hotel restaurant in America's largest ghosttown lives up to its rating? The Clinkscale!!! I thought more than once the men on the staff need handlebar mustaches but that may have made this quaint atmosphere with 1899 vibes, ragtime music playing softly and modern fixtures, kitchy. The staff was kind with the right "attitude". Conversational but not chatty if that makes sense. Didn't stay at the table too long but also didn't act like you're unimportant. The food here ranged from good to amazing for us. Let me tell you about it... Truffle fries: My preferred fry type is skinny and the were just that. Skinnier than McDonald's but not to where they became crisps. Parmesan reggiano was shaved throughout the cone of fries not just on top. They come with a garlic aioli that taste more like a lemon ranch sauce but was still delicious. Get 2 orders if these abd eat them all. Artisan grilled cheese and poblano tomato soup: Soup was creamy and could definitely taste the poblano. The grilled cheese went 50/50 amongst us. The 2 who didnt like the grilled cheese was because of the goat like cheese on it. The sort of sharp sour flavor was off putting. Eggs Benedict with grits: The birthday girl prefers a runny egg and wasn't given the option, however the Canadian bacon on the bene was a hit abd left room for the star of this plate, the grits. Perfectly cooked and flavor was a 10. Gives the fries a run for their $$$. Chicken fried steak: Was said to be really good, specifically the texture. You know I dont eat beef so didnt taste it but it was enjoyed. Lemon ricotta pancakes: Huge pancakes that were tasty and carried the lemon flavor heartily, however the best LR pancakes I've had melt in your mouth and did not need syrup or sweetening. These didnt and were good with syrup. The blueberries on the dish were amazing, large and sweet. Basil grilled chicken sandwich with side salad: EXCELLENT sandwich with clean basic ingredients. Thin slices grilled chicken was not overly cooked. The 1st half was good warm and the other half just as good when I ate it cold at 2:00 am. Side salad was a spring mix with spinach (I think) and a white balsamic dressing NEED to know the name of orange how to make it. This salad would change my daily diet and overall health as I would eat it everyday! The Clinkscale has a well earned rep so wax your 'stache before you EAT and DRINK here.

    Scallops
    Jenn K.

    A true gem in the heart of the quaint heart of Jerome . Was recommended by my inn keeper and it did not disappoint . The bartender crafted me an expresso martini made with bourbon and cinnamon creme it was the best I've ever had , and I'm pretty picky about them . The scallops were cooked to perfection and I even got a little surprise by the manager Mike for my birthday . The staff was friendly and the food fantastic . Next time I will try and actually stay at the hotel , It sounded equally as charming

    This place was great! I liked the tortellini macaroni and cheese, and my husband enjoyed his burger. Service was friendly and prompt, and this restaurant was a great spot to sit down after going up and down the hillside of Jerome.

    Best espresso martini I've ever had!!! Tasted like an Afrogotto!
    Rachel D.

    Road-tripped to Jerome this weekend and stopped into Clinkscale for lunch--what a great find. Service: Friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Our server was fantastic and made the experience feel relaxed and fun. Food: Everything we had was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. One of those meals where you keep passing bites across the table because it's too good not to share. Drinks: The espresso martini deserves a special shoutout--smooth, balanced, and easily one of the best I've had. Vibe: Historic Jerome charm with a cool, polished feel. It's the kind of place that makes a random road-trip stop feel like a real discovery. If you're visiting Jerome, Clinkscale is absolutely worth a stop. Great food, great drinks, and great service--we'll definitely be back next time we're in town.

    1000% worth any drive to eat here! We popped in for breakfast and I could have stayed all day to eat every meal! We got a few things to do a little splitsie so grab a few friends to do the same. We ordered the chicken and biscuits (Light, fluffy biscuits with crispy chicken and perfect gravy) and the breakfast tacos (I could have eaten 10!) And for "dessert" Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. 10 out of 10, drive 50 miles to get, delicious perfection!

    Egg sandwich
    Hillary J.

    It was busy because of tourism, but everything else is too. I walked around and the text only took a few minutes to get me in. I really didn't know what to expect from their menu descriptions, so I figured the egg sandwich would be safe. It was still weird compared to other establishments, but very tasty. The decor is antique and appears to be trying hard to be a Manhattan bourbon saloon. It's cute, and quirky. It probably wouldn't survive in a big city, but it is the best in that area. The staff is responsive and friendly.

    The peach cobbler bread pudding with vanilla gelato.
    Heather M.

    I can't even begin to describe how amazing the food and service were! My party of three all loved the meals we had with two standouts being the Caesar salad and French fries. The bread pudding was what really made the experience! Overall, you can't go wrong at The Clinkscale!

    Initially we had dinner reservation at 5 but we had time for lunch and due to weather we opted to have quick small bite for lunch and cancel dinner. We weren't too hungry since we had late breakfast. Ordered the grilled&chilled shrimp and tossed caeser salad. Staff was friendly and restaurant was pretty packed specially after it started raining. Now presentation of the shrimp dish was done nice, and dressed up fancy . Shrimp was pretty darn good with flavor and nice grilled char on it. Cocktail sauce and I think server said garlic aioli for dipping were yummy. Casaer salad was pretty good and had plenty of salad dressing mixed into it. I wanted the try the peach cobbler but time did not work in our favor. Now over all food was pretty good and service was pretty good. But for 6 shrimp for $18.95 seems over kill. That's $3 per shrimp they were decent size but not that big. Over all food was good and atmosphere was good (but it is a bar so it can be very loud). If I come visit Jerome I would definitely try here for some other dishes.

    Cheeseburger and Fries
    Clem M.

    Stopped at The Clinkscale for lunch. Got the Cheeseburger and Fries to go. Good Cheeseburger and Fries. Tip: Paid City Parking for $5 to get lunch here.

    Filet, fries, and a dirty martini
    Courtney E.

    What a perfect little placed tucked away in Jerome! The drinks were fire- we tried the mango margarita, French 75, and a dirty martini with hands down the best blue cheese olives I ever had- dinner and dessert were all delish! We got the grilled cheese/soup, the burger, and the filet (ask for a side of the lemon aïoli) and the beignets for dessert! We sat at the bar and Joe, our bartender, entertained us all night long! It was a great girls night out!

    Never disappoints..... food , service, atmosphere..... everything is perfect! Definitely recommend! This is our go to every time!!

    Grilled cheese and tomato soup
    Mary H.

    We were referred by one of the local shops and so glad for the recommendation! We were a group of 7 and were lucky to get a table. This place is busy but so worth the wait. Everyone was happy with their choices! Grilled cheese and tomato soup-omg! The soup was so good and flavorful! I almost forgot to eat my grilled cheese which was good but the soup was very "standout!" Boneless wings-loved it! The breading was different, which only made it better! Too bad we're not local otherwise we would definitely return. Service was friendly and attentive too!

    Walk. Don't run to The Clinkscale to get the cast iron skillet 8oz filet mignon. I say, "Walk," because I don't want to actually let anyone know just how good this filet is. Salt and butter cooked medium rare is typically the not-so-secret key to getting a decent filet but the way this filet is seasoned here is savory but also somehow also a hint of sweet. It's the yin-yang balance of filets that you didn't know you were searching for all of your life. I included two photos of the 16oz bone in ribeye that my husband ordered because the smaller ribeye was cooked medium well and we were surprised and sad and weren't going to say anything, but our funny and adorable blond waitress with glasses (I forgot her name!! eeeek), gasped and said "Give me, give me give me" with out-reached grasping hands as she quickly remedied the situation and they returned with a bigger ribeye eye cooked perfectly medium rare on the rarer side and gifted us with a side of a mashed potato purée that all of our group of friends tried to steal from him once we tried a bite. What is the secret to making potato purée this amazing?! It was addicting and mesmerizing. The restaurant was super proud of their beignets so it was not much of an arm twist to try them for dessert. Yes, can confirm they are super good and light and flaky.

    Cauliflower buffalo bites yummy

Server Gianna was fabulous, attentive and quick. Pizza's crust is how I define quality of pizza and they are an easy exceptional A++. Crispy and chewy. Pizza sauce is nice and they don't put too much or too little. Even better than their pizzas funny enough, though, are their homemade pasta dishes! We tried their parpadelle bolognese and tagliatelle bosco bianco. I can't wait to drive back and am so happy we have this restaurant because now when I crave pizza or pasta it's only a quick 15min drive from Cottonwood. I'd choose to go here over Bocce on Main Street in Cottonwood. The menu has great options and my 1 yo loved her first pizza experience. My dad had the Italian Beef sandwich and the dressing on their side salad was tasty, and the sandwich was even better. I think they use pizza crust dough for the sandwich bread and it's toasty and delicious. I dislike when sandwich bread is too thick and Haunted Pizano's is perfection. It has a nice little spicy relish on it, too. Yum. Only disappointment is the aus jus really lacked flavor. I can't complain though, this restaurant is a gem for us who live here. Music was too loud for me, but I'm an old lady in a 36 yo body. I'm sure it won't offend most people. Design of the place is super cool and fun w/ the ghost's eating pizza artwork on the walls.
