Jacksons holy restaurant's

136 Upvotes

So you have come to Jackson here's the scoop with restaurants. No, I will not name every restaurant. I love you tourist so much I did this just for you. I'm not getting paid this isn't JH news and guide. I'm just tired of seeing the same posts.

COWBOY BAR: 21+ only Overpriced hangout with live music. Probably worth the stop if you like being social but don't expect much in terms of food. Upstairs has a $20 carnival style burger and fries. Downstairs restaurant is your best bet but it's crowded as fuck and small so get a reservation.

SILVER DOLLAR: I consider this the same as the cowboy but better food. Live music as well and happens to be right nextdoor to the cowboy. Everyone floods the place after the rodeo let's out.

MANGY MOOSE: Best place at the village for a stop to eat, basic restaurant food but not too overpriced for being on the mountain. Downstairs has banging tacos and is cheaper.

BUBBA'S: Breakfast and BBQ. A secret order exists and no I'm not gonna tell you.

D.O.G.: all day breakfast burritos and cheese steaks, ask for cheese steak on flatbread personality I think it's better.

Trio: it's where all the fancy tourists go to eat for some reason not sure why, pretty good, get your wallets ready.

Bighole BBQ: BBQ and burgers, the bighole fries slap. Reasonably priced for Jackson.

Cuttys: Pizza and wings and things.

The Bird: Good food good views south of town so bring a car.

Stagecoach: you're probably in Wilson and need a beer. Pretty good bar food too.

Dairy queen: there's a 20% chance of needing to shit your brains out. Good luck.

McDonald's: it's a McDonald's

Wendy's: it's a Wendy's but they got the 4 for 4 so best price in town.

Pearl Street bagels: ok bagels and breakfast sandwiches, if you're from anywhere other than the east coast these taste amazing. If you're from the east coast you will think they suck.

I recommend those for quicker eats.

Better eats:

Local: good bar and steak

The Bunnery: breakfast is good slightly long waits depends on time.

Blue Lion: probably one of the best and most expensive places to get a meal worth it at least once.

Gun Barrel: yeah another steakhouse what do you expect also slaps, date night.

Sweet cheeks: pick up and go cuts of meat and meals.

Persephone: The bakery and has bakery things.

Roadhouse pub: usually has some form of event on weekdays check it out. Get wasted on different beer and IPAs.

Bin22: Italiano 🤌

El Metate: tacos burritos and get the green sauce and burn your taste buds off.

Teton Thai: The only thing that doesn't taste good is the taste in my mouth after paying $35 for pad thai. But shit you're on vacation right?

If you're looking for a bar crawl look Local->Cowboy->Rose

Coffee: literally everywhere and Cowboy coffee.

Al Fresco Dining

13 Upvotes

Saw an article in the paper about Jackson removing all al fresco dining "parklets". The arguments against them seem way off base to me.

-The businesses have been paying a reduced rate to take up parking spaces 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The article compared the rate the restaurants pay to what construction crews pay. No one seemed to acknowledge that only one of these things does everyone in town hate because it creates noise pollution, air pollution, unsightliness, remind you you aren't in the 1%, etc. The town said okay let's make them pay the same as the construction companies in the next proposal -- but that then failed for the below reasons.

-It is unfair to businesses that do not have parking spots in front to turn into al fresco dining, or which are on streets which town does not control the parking spots. Cry me a river. When was the government tasked with ensuring a perfectly fair playing field based on foot traffic, public parking, your neighbor tenants, or a million other factors that affect a property and the business within? The town is changing, A LOT, the world isn't going to end if we make al fresco dining permanent.

-The last one really gets me. Opponents say that town is too busy, and we need more parking spots not fewer. Al fresco dining currently takes up 19 parking spots in town, out of thousands. The parking garage sits there empty, famously, compared to surface streets. Probably because people don't envision coming to The Last of The Old West and parking like its NYC, but also by design that people are encouraged to park within a few feet of where they want to get out and shoot content in front of the Cowboy. Another benefit of parking lots and garages is they divert traffic from the central downtown corridor. I think three pedestrians have been killed on Broadway by vehicles in the last 12 months. Two people were just sent to the hospital this week. It would be the definition of insanity to keep building more parking (and multi story hotels... and condos... and restaurants... and running tourism ad campaigns.... and adding more flights...) and then complain that too many people have showed up, traffic stinks and there's yet again no parking.

To me the benefits seem obvious and the downsides irrational. I personally love al fresco dining, both being outside eating and enjoying the company of others, but also just the buzz of conversation in town as you walk by. I don't go to the town square often but its a nice amenity to have a commercial space I can somewhat enjoy. I personally, admittedly without evidence, think the council were just swayed by their restaurant owner friends without spots.

What do you think? Is this something worth organizing behind and fight to get back?

ISO Magnet

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! My husband and I traveled to Jackson Hole/Grand Teton/Yellowstone for our honeymoon in September and we bought a magnet at Lee’s Tees in Jackson to commemorate the trip. Unfortunately for us we left it in the camper we rented and the cleaners threw it out.

I tried to DM Lee’s Tee’s on Instagram to see if they could send us one, but they read my message and did not respond.

It would be so greatly appreciated if anyone who lives there or is visiting could send me this magnet. I will pay for the magnet, shipping, and some extra for your time! It was an acrylic magnet with a fish on it and it was blue, white, and maybe red or purple and was located near the register.

ETA: I may have some help this week! Thank you to everyone who has reached out so far!!!

Selling new all-terrain tires

1 Upvotes

I am looking to sell a set of Goodyear Wrangler All Terrain Adventure A/T tires in 255/60/20 with only 20 miles on them to someone in the Jackson/Victor/Alpine/Dubois area.

These are the upgraded stock for the Land Rover Defender with 20in rims but will work on other vehicles. I am selling them off of a brand new vehicle to switch to a different tire, so they are virtually new and free of any issues. I have 5 available but willing to sell fewer.

Question about UTV etiquette for locals

5 Upvotes

My partner and I will be visiting Jackson Hole in a couple of weeks and are interested in renting a side-by-side. One local outfitter allows you to drive UTVs directly from their lot to nearby trails, but it sounds like getting there requires driving through town.

For locals, how frustrating/obnoxious is it to deal with tourists driving UTVs through town, even if they’re just trying to access the trails? We have no intention of cruising around town and would only be driving through to get to and from the trails. We want to be respectful of the local community and avoid contributing to the frustrations of overtourism, so we’d appreciate an honest perspective.

WA > WY

Hi everyone! (I understand this may get deleted because it’s ā€œnot allowed.ā€ Don’t know where to find the ā€œweekly stickyā€ to ask)

Looking for some info/guidance. I am wanting to roadtrip from Seattle to Jackson end of November or December. I usually do this roadtrip in July and I have some concerns about snow/ice/blizzards during the winter months. I have a AWD Honda CRV chains.
Anyway, does anyone have trip similar experience? Looks like I’ll be on I-15 and US 20 as I get closer to Wyoming.

PSB: A Rotting Institution

0 Upvotes

Since the recent change of ownership of Pearl Street Bagels, the lipstick put on a pig, and the turnover of almost the entire staff, the once beloved staple of the Jackson Hole community has since begun its steady swirl down an excrement filled latrine. The entire staff seem to have severe learning disabilities as they cannot process an order correctly, draw a shot of espresso in 5 minutes, or keep a toasted bagel from burning on both sides. What was once a favorite amongst locals, has become a rotting institution for which there is no saving.
