After exploring lunch and dinner options, it's time to discover some fantastic breakfast spots. Sedona provides a range of choices from healthy selections to classic greasy spoons and everything in between.
First on our list is a beloved local spot, frequently voted the best diner in town. Cafe Jose serves classic comfort food with both American and Mexican dishes. Having been open since 2004, they have spent 20 years honing their skills and earning accolades. Offering breakfast all day in addition to other menu choices, this is one of our family's favorite places to visit.
Next on our breakfast journey is Sedonuts which is right next door to Cafe Jose. If you're more in the mood for grab and go, this is your spot. They feature an epic cinnamon roll dubbed "the Vortex" but make sure to go early to snag yours, it is not uncommon for them to sell out, especially during the busy season. Bonus, they just opened a new location in Cottonwood!
Mesa Grill is another top spot for breakfast and offers not only a lovely brunch menu, but also fantastic views from atop the airport mesa. Situated right on the Sedona airport runway, you can sip your mimosa and watch the planes take off and land. I highly recommend making a reservation, which is super easy on OpenTable or through their website.
Next on our list is another quick serve option that is great for grabbing breakfast to take on your adventures. Local Juicery is right across the street from our West Sedona home and offers dine in or take out options along with several different freshly made juices. We often stop in for their avocado toast or waffles topped with bananas and berries. They even have grab and go salads so you can get breakfast and lunch!
As you travel up 89A toward Flagstaff from Sedona you'll encounter the next restaurant on our list. Indian Gardens Cafe looks like it came straight out of a fairytale and offers great breakfast and lunch options, including vegetarian and gluten free options. This is a perfect spot to stop on your way to or from West Fork Trail. Oh and did I mention, they have pie!
Last on our list is one of our absolute favorite restaurants in the area. Although not located in Sedona you can find The Clinkscale in the nearby mining town of Jerome. We frequently dine here and have always been impressed by the service, quality, and overall ambience. This is another spot I highly recommend making a reservation, the restaurant is small and intimate which makes for a great dining experience.
Bonus restaurant: if all else fails, there is always McDonald's! But don't expect to see golden arches anytime soon, due to city ordinances the arches are turquoise and have become a popular spot to stop and snap a pic!
You'll often see a line of people waiting to get a picture with the famous turquoise arches, this is the only McDonald's in the world that has non-golden arches. (and yes they serve breakfast!)
