No vegan options and not tasty at all - Edit
Since 2017 their menu changed and it no longer has vegan options, only vegetarian. We had the pasta with spinach and sun-dried tomatoes without cheese, and it was not tasty at all. The place is nothing special. After a long day of hiking, we had to wait 40' (originally they said it was going to be 1hr) because even though there were tables available, the cook had a long waiting list... The olive oil they served was transparent (it has to be green) and disgusting. On top of that, the paprika oil I think it was based with the same oil and it was horrible. I don't like writing bad reviews, but wanted to warn those who might have high expectations of this place. Go to Ruby's instead (inside Best Western hotel). They have veggie burgers and my husband had a veggie wrap made for him... otherwise there are not many veg restaurants or veg friendly so bring many vegan energy bars (oh! If you are planning a trip there... The Bryce Trails B&B was great in every sense.. we asked for a vegan breakfast and Crystal did two amazing VEGAN breakfasts ... the B&B was very nice too... ). Bryce is TOTALLY worth the effort... so don't stop from going!

Great find - Edit
As this was the only place to eat in Bryce Canyon, I didn't have many expectations. However!! We ended up very satisfied. We went there for dinner. The Gardein chicken was so amazing (it was the first time we tried it) that I seriously doubted if it was real or not. We had a vegan meal with grilled veggies etc., very filling and tasty. I wanted to try the quinoa bowl but I was told it was made with milk. However, I think the waiter might have been confused because it barely had any sauce ( my mother ordered it ), and it didn't look or smell like it had anything to do with milk.

Cons: not sure if they know what vegan actually means

NOT TEMPEH BACON - Edit
The description for the VLT says "tempeh bacon," but it's definitely morning star farms bacon, which contains egg. NOT VEGAN! Makes m wonder if the other "vegan" options are actually vegan.

Surprising Find! - Edit
Stumbled upon The Lodge after a long morning of walking. They had several vegan options such as a burger, veggie wrap, salad and VLT sandwich, and also to replace chicken with Gardein chickn. I opted for the veggie bacon (VLT) sandwich, without aioli, with a side salad. It was delicious! Staff were lovely and attentive. Excellent find!

Better than expected - Edit
I'm guessing they have made improvements to their veg options. I ordered a veg blt with vegan tempeh bacon. Unfortunately the aioli is not vegan but the server suggested hummus on my "VLT" instead and that was a great substitution. My husband got a marinated portobello burger (can be made vegan with no cheese) and he enjoyed that too. They also have great beer! I was overall very happy with the server's knowledge of vegan food, his happiness to accommodate, and the food.
Pros: delicious portobello sandwich, tempeh bacon, fresh veggies

Disappointing - Edit
The menu looked good. 3 different vegetarian options. I ordered the quinoa & my boyfriend ordered the pasta. I got a bowl of brown mush. Very little veggies, very unappealing. The pasta was okay but not much better.
Pros: location
Cons: food

Very Ordinary - Edit
From my experience, there is not much positive to report about The Lodge at Bryce Canyon as far as a dining experience for vegans. The food (vegan burger & veggie wrap minus aioli) was edible but fairly bland and the staff (including a supervisor/manager) had little concept of what vegan food is (despite having a vegan burger on the menu!).
Cons: Staff lack knowledge about vegan food, Food not great

Vegan dining options in Bryce Canyon - Edit
This is the only dining option inside the park. It's a nice, moderate to expensive restaurant with several vegan options. They have Gardein "chicken" that can be substituted in any dish with chicken. Their menu mentions that they can accommodate special dietary restrictions. Both servers we had were knowledgable about what was vegan. Several dishes, such as salads, can be made vegan by leaving off the cheese. I had the quinoa primavera and the whole wheat penne pomodoro with fake chicken. Both were good, and better than I was expecting for a place in such a rural area. They also had a nice selection of beer and wine, including some local ones. Servers were prompt and professional. While this isn't somewhere I'd seek out in a city with many vegan options, for what it was it was pretty good and we were pleasantly surprised.
Pros: Several vegan options, Nice atmosphere, Knowledgable servers
Cons: Somewhat pricey, Only sorbet for vegan dessert
