Food - Utah Mighty Five Loop

While doing the Mighty 5 in Utah over 24 days, we will be staying in
- Mexican Hat
- Page
- Kanab
- Virgin
- Escalante
- Torrey
- Moab
- Bluff

Wife just asked about eating while doing the loop. We will love to here your insight into where we can get groceries and restaurant recommendations. Thanks!!
  • We use Wal*Mart Pickup

    This may help - https://www.allstays.com/c/walmart-utah-locations-map.htm

    As you go from location to Location time your stops to do a Pickup.

    Zion may be the likely spot ..........

    When in SouthEastern Utah you could also slide into Colorado to Cool Off and resupply - https://www.allstays.com/c/walmart-colorado-locations-map.htm

    During Covid there are also many places that will allow meal pickup, so not much chance of Loosing weight:)

    JMHO,
  • We don't eat our much and, of course, no idea what they are doing now, but three places we like are; Escalante Outfitters in Escalante, Hells Backbone Cafe in Boulder, and the Twin Rocks Cafe in Bluff. Moab has many places to try. There are groceries available in all towns though some (like Escalante and Boulder) are limited.
    Have fun

    For Groceries, there's a City Market in Moab, and more restaurants than I care to take the time to List.
  • the last time we stayed at Thousand Lakes RV park on the west side of Torrey, they offered great Cinnamon Buns in the a.m. and on Fridays, they had a steak supper offered, also very good...not cheap, but good. :)
    This was about 5 to 7 years ago, so be aware of that.
  • I don't think you can swing a hungry cat in Utah without at least hitting a Walmart.

    When you're in Virgin, there's a good market down the hill at La Verkin and then a Walmart further down the road in Hurricane.

    Escalante definitely has groceries too, and so does Kanab.

    I can't recall where we've shopped in those other spots, but you probably only need 3-4 grocery stops for a 24 day trip assuming you load up your fridge before you leave home.

    This sounds like a great trip. Enjoy!

    We've been to all those places, but can only remember shopping for groceries at Kanab and Moab. Also, ate at two great restaurants in Springdale just down the road from Virgin.
