The Bunnery is a cute restaurant in downtown Jackson, WY with a bright and homey atmosphere, catering mostly to breakfast and lunch. I don't think it's open for dinner. Nonetheless, the place gets very busy, especially for breakfast. The food was delicious and prepared fresh. They offer freshly squeezed orange juice (and I'm pretty sure it was in fact freshly squeezed). You can sit inside, but they also have a patio area which is nice to sit at if it's a beautiful day.
You might wonder why I gave them only three stars. Well, quite simply, as many reviewers have said before me. The service left something to be desired. Yes, they were friendly, but once (I ate there twice) they were slow, and even forgot to check to see if my order was ready, after a couple who had ordered after me got their meal before I did. Another time, they were just not checking on me. After I received my food, the next time they showed up was to bring the check. It's really a shame, because it's one of those unique restaurant places that you just want to like.
One more note, they also have Thomas Mangelsen photographic prints hanging on the walls. And if you don't know who Thomas Mangelsen is, he is one of the most talented photographers around, based in Jackson Hole. He has a gallery just down the street from The Bunnery. It is definitely worth a visit (see separate review).
- Bright and cheery atmosphere
- Pastries looked really yummy but I didn't get a chance to try any :4(
- Brews Starbucks coffee including lattes and other espresso drinks
- OSM bread (oats, sunflower seeds, millets in whole wheat bread) LOVE IT!!!
- Guacamole omelet was different and good
- Offer different dishes with various vegetables and other ingredients
- Apparently this place was featured on the food network
- Service was ok but not very friendly
The locals we stayed with suggested this place to eat in Jackson. I really wanted to give it 4 stars because the food was very good, but the service left something to be desired. More on that in a bit.
It was our last morning in Wyoming and we needed to get some good food in us before a hike in the Grand Teton's. The Bunnery was on our way there and as I said, it was recommended by locals.
The first guy came over to take our drink orders. We didn't know he wasn't our server. I ordered an apple juice and my friend ordered cranberry. They do advertise as being the only place in Jackson with fresh squeezed OJ and grapefruit juice, but they were a bit on the pricey side and I've been burned too many times ordering "fresh squeezed" OJ only to get something that tasted like Tropicana, which to me isn't really OJ. The drink server brought our juices, but brought my friend a fresh squeezed grapefruit juice instead of cranberry. Mind you the fresh juice was a few dollars more. Our proper server came over and we told her of the mistake. Most restaurants would let you hold onto the mistake and bring you what you ordered. Not the Bunnery. She took the juice back and we were pretty sure she served it to another table. Probably not, but that is the story I'm going with.
Anyway, onto breakfast. I ordered a Grow Ventre Slide. I think that is what it was called. As I type this, it has been a few weeks since we were there. This was an egg dish with cheese and veggies and possibly potatoes with sprouts on top. I specifically asked for them to leave off the sour cream as I'm not a fan. As soon as she left to put the order in I told my friend that there would be sour cream on my meal. Sure enough I was right. I'm sure I could have sent it back, but I scooped it off and I guess it wasn't a very big deal. The meal was good and hearty and just what I needed to sustain me for the hike we had planned.
Food=good. Service=meh. This might be a good place to take your meal to go.
A great place for brunch, lunch and snack. A lot of organic choices including the best pan cake ever had! Spinach salad with honey vinegar was tasty and Blueberry muffin was yummy and not sweet at all. Good price, great food and of course it was busy!! Expected to wait a while during peak hours.
Cute bakery mom n pop place. It's precisely what you expect from a cute diner bakery. Veggie soup is great. Monte cristo is good. The mother earth is good. The service is excellent.
The Bunnery is a family style restaurant, oriented towards breakfast, but open all day. They have a dozen outside tables on a nice patio under umbrellas, and then twice that many tables inside.
The restaurant has a standard menu: egg dishes, salads, sandwiches, burgers, with Tazo Tea and Starbucks Coffee, as well as local beers. They almost get four stars for the beer - Snake River Lager, Snake River Zonker Stout & Teton Ale, not bad. As their name implies they have a large assortment of pastries and pies. The waitress asked if we wanted pie twice.
If you are a Starbucks fan then this is one of the only Starbucks coffee sellers I've seen in Cody, Yellowstone, and Jackson Hole areas. I don't care for Starbucks, but being from a place where there is one or two or three on every block I found it worth the mention.
I had Florentine Eggs - which are a scramble with spinach and Swiss. They were good. The toast was made with their own bread - and was *excellent*. The hash browns were one step up from McDonalds - deep fried frozen potato brick - not great but okay for the quantity and crispness.
The biggest turnoff was the restaurant wasn't very clean and was a bit worn down, which made it feel a little more dirty than homey. Not disgusting, but things like the patio had a slightly unpleasant odor of old food. My wife said the bathroom was the same - heavily used and not kept fully clean and stocked. The bathrooms were two single unisex johns right in the middle of the store - and there was a line for them with a couple grouchy people.
I would recommend this place otherwise - the service was fine, the food was okay to good, and the price was fair.

Yes. When we are in Jackson this is a must for breakfast. Sometimes lunch and often some baked goods to take back to the house. They are most always busy, and the wait for the bathroom can seem endless. But if it is a pretty day you'll enjoy a meal outdoors where big umbrellas offer shade and you can watch the comings an goings in town. The OSM bread is as good as they imply. I have never been disappointend in any way with The Bunnery's service or food.
What do you get when you cross a croissant with a pretzel? A croitzel? That's what they had on a tray marked "Butter Croissant." Rubbery on the outside, dry on the inside.
In case you can't imagine the sensation of biting into one of these... imagine your father-in-law, a balding, tightly rotund man, squeezed into a small bikini.
That's right -- it's a crime against humanity.
the bunnery is a bit of a bummer-y. get it? haha
I got their homemade tomato/vegetable soup which, to me, tasted like campbell's, meh. Their turkey/ham sandwich was much better but their famous bread is too sweet for my tastes, it has that slightly sweet, "we're all vegan" here, hippie taste. In the Bunnery's defense, I'm not really all that into baked goods - but if you are then maybe this is your place...? It felt a little dirty inside, I wouldn't go back.

GAWD
Stopped into Bunnery for lunch one day, and noticed their pie display. Yum, pie.
Once we finished lunch (it was fine, about what you'd expect from a lunch/dinner bakery, prices, service, all about average) I took a closer look at the pies and cookies and pastries.
Did I mention O My GAWD?!?!
My totally coffee addicted girlfriend got a cup of the Starbucks, and I picked up some sticky buns, a cookie, and a carmel apple pie. The fellow helping us was friendly and sure enough, helpful. He even loaded an extra sticky bun because the one I wanted was 'small'. Yea, right, small like a frickin planet.
Did I mention that pie is yummy, even when you are staying with like 10 other people?
The pie and pastries were so good, we went back to try more pies. And then we went back again. I think we ended up at the Bunnery 4 times in the 7 days we were in JH. In summary, F U Bunnery for adding like 3 inches to my waist. Why you got to be so frickin delicious?
Definitely a highlight of my trip to Jackson Hole. The sticky buns were out of this world - sticky, gooey, and o-so satisfying. Plus it was the size of my face. The chocolate cake was dry and the frosting was pretty gross, which lost this place a star for me. But the apple turnovers were great - flaky and just the right amount of coarse sugar on the top. A great way to start your day in this beautiful city.
a horrible tourist trap. you couldn't pay me to eat here again. i should've suspected when all we saw tourists. not one local. never a good sign. but i read pretty decent reviews of this place, so we tried it anyways.
first off, they serve starbucks coffee?!? seriously?! starbucks! it wasn't even good starbucks. and they had no fresh coffee ready when we got there. we had to wait for over 15 min for burnt starbucks coffee.
the eastern european serving us had more attitude than the waiters in miami. no one liked anything. i tried to struggle through my week old (it tasted that way) cinnamon roll that was harder then the rocks in the grand tetons.
my group sent everything back and left. no apologies. the waiter didn't even ask what was wrong. this might have been a great place a few years ago, but it was one of the worst dining experiences i've ever had.
go to nora's fish creek inn. it's well worth the 10 min drive.

We discovered The Bunnery while vacationing in Jackson over the summer. It's the perfect place to load up before heading out for the days activities of Mt. Biking, Kayaking, Hiking or whatever. Each time we ate here, I had the blueberry OSM pancakes and a side of hash browns on both occasions. OSM refers to the grains that make up the pancake batter. Rather than bisquick or enriched flour, The Bunnery uses whole wheat, rolled oats, sunflower seeds and millet, which makes for a much healthier, albeit different tasting flapjack. The combination of healthy things reminded me of eating 7-grain bread, complete with the mysterious crunchy bits and somewhat bitter taste, but the blueberries and maple syrup softened the abnormal flavors and textures supplied by the alien grains.
My wife went with the Biscuits and gravy, which in and of themselves were pretty good. But when she put some on my plate for me to try, the sausage gravy inadvertently mixed with the glorious hash browns and the result was so mind-blowingly delicious, that I am salivating just thinking about it. It was one of those things that was not originally intended, but took two things that were very good and made one thing that was exceptional. Take for example, HDTV and TiVo. In and of themselves, they are both wondrous inventions that defy the limits of watching a regular broadcast with commercials. But together, they are something so wonderful and enchanting that, once you experience the combined power of an HDTiVo, you can never again go back to the way life used to be.
I will definitely go back to the bunnery next time we're in Jackson.
This is a good breakfast joint. There are Mangelson pictures on the walls which is good in my book.
I had hasbrowns and breakfast burrito. Both were very good.
Service was prompt and we had no problem getting a table on a Sunday morning.
I recommend.
good breakfast joint. We went during the week and we had no problems getting a table. Service was quick and food was good. There baked goods are Uh-mazing! A must when you are there.
Get thee to The Bunnery, post haste, for great to go coffee and great savory croissants. Sweets, like muffins, not quite that tasty. Wish they heated the croissants. Super cute place with huge lines for sit down food, short lines and fast service for to go. Unlike other patrons, I saw plenty locals mixed with the tourists (it attracts tourists because it's open early and is on the way out of town, for the Grand Teton/Yellowstone headed crowd).
We were very sad to have not discovered this place until our last day in Wyoming! Amazing baked goods and reasonable prices. Love the name too!
Great breakfast/brunch spot in downtown Jackson. The cinnamon rolls and sticky buns are a highlight, and the other portions are gigantic. Service is slow and there can be a long line during busy times (i.e. sunday brunch)
People thought this was:
Mediocre diner food, bad service. We had to ask for water three times, burgers came with potato chips (is it that hard to even thaw some frozen fries?), quesadilla had nearly-raw onions in it. Onions?? "Free refill" soda turned out to mean "free refill if you can get the waitress' attention"
Vegetable soup seemed to actually be made on-site. Had fresh beans and broccoli in it. Tasty, but not a meal.
I wasn't super impressed. The bread was good, their signature. Service was slow and the eggs were typical. Nothing special about the place but a decent meal.
THis place is way over rated. Not only do you wait for 30 minutes to get a table, but the service is just god awful. Ate there last week and only saw my server twice, to take my order and to give me the bill....and the bill was late too. THis place blows! The food is way overpriced too. Go someplace good like the Virginian and have a quality meal and good service.

great breakfast spot - i would recommend going during the week or early if you can. it definitely gets busy and when i went there was a line. it moved quickly though and we were seated after only about 15-20 minutes. they also have a to-go line for coffee and pastries (all of which looked tasty!). i had the bacon omelette which is one of their specialties. it was really good - lots of bacon! many of their dishes come with their own type of bread which is good too.
Stopped by here for a quick lunch during a day of being scared off the mountain (I'm a pretty new snowboarder that apparently can't handle great powder). I ordered their clam chowder (New England style) and my friend ordered the house salad. First - the salad - it was fresh and crispy - basically good salad. Now, for the main attraction - the chowder - this is the best clam chowder I've ever had. Every spoonful was chock full of clams and even maybe some mussels (looked a little reddish, in a good kind of way). Unlike the usual skimping on seafood to fill it with potatoes and other veggies, this was a true fisherman's dream. The bowl was huge as well - well worth the $4.25 paid for it. I'm still raving about it days later. We split a great peach pie - another great distinction of the Bunnery - their pie/cake selection. It had a crispy crust and wasn't too soggy, though you could tell that it was made from canned peaches.
The service was good. If you're driving, there is street parking but no lot that we could see. There is also a take out section where you can buy their bakery goods - bread (including whole grain versions) and pies.
Highly recommend for the grub!
We ate there for a late lunch and were disappointed even after reading these reviews in advance. The homemade vegetable soup was cold and overly sweet as if it came straight from some generic can. The breakfast was so-so, nothing special, the cinnamon roll too. For the money, you might as well eat elsewhere.
