Comfort food favorites from a friendly roadside spot that keeps hikers and families coming back for more.
Archie's Food Truck is a permanent food truck next to East Zion Resort that serves up satisfying comfort food after a day on the trails. The menu covers all the classics—burgers, cheesesteaks, chicken tenders, and crispy fries—with generous portions that won't break the bank.
The Fab Rat Burger and Route 89 Panini are local favorites, and the casket basket (loaded with mini corn dogs and tacos) is perfect for sharing.
What sets Archie's apart is their attention to dietary needs. They offer extensive gluten-free options, including safe versions of burgers, sandwiches, fries, and chicken tenders. The staff takes time to explain what can be made gluten-free, which is rare for a casual spot like this.
The setup is straightforward—order at the window and grab a seat at one of the outdoor tables. Dogs are welcome, making it a natural stop for families road-tripping between parks. The fresh lemonade and iced tea pair perfectly with the hearty food.
Located right on the route between Zion and Bryce Canyon, Archie's makes an ideal lunch stop when you're covering ground in southern Utah. It's the kind of place where everyone knows each other, the portions are generous, and you leave satisfied without spending a fortune.

Considering it's kinda in the middle of nowhere (no offense). The food is quality and the prices are cheaper than some restaurant chains. I've had their Utah Philly burger and now their Utah Philly fires and the portion size is better than good and the food is delicious. Even their Chicken Tenders were amazing! The batter they used had plenty of flavor!

My wife did not get sick from gluten. Other than that, not real impressed. First visit we got a Philly a wrap. $15 was pretty high for such a small wrap on a not good tortilla. The second visit we ordered the large chicken strips. We had heard they were large and really tasty. However, the portion we got had 5 of the smallest pieces of chicken i have ever seen. Not much larger than a chicken nugget. Flavor was good. Fries were good but nothing special. Overall, over priced and not the best.

Great spot. This was the only place I knew I wanted to eat when we were planning our trip to Utah. I had seen it on YouTube and being a foodtruck owner myself it was a must. The menu is simple but ample the staff is friendly and knowledgeable and the ticket times are quick. There is shaded outdoor seating nearby. I had a buffalo chicken sandwich and the wife had a loaded fry, great iced tea. We also found our eldest daughter's souvenir tshirt here haha. Great experience would totally recommend

Ate there after a slot canyon tour with ROAM next door. The hot chicken sandwich might be the best I've had. Cool eclectic signs and quickly made. Don't miss!

2024: Delicious cheeseburger, fries and chicken Philly fries. The bun was really soft and fresh. The burger was cooked perfectly, not too thin or too thick. Not dry at all. Just perfect, one of the better burgers I've had in a while. The fries were awesome. I tried In and Out burger because we don't have these in my state and I've always heard how great they are. Honestly that was flavorless garbage compared to Archie's burger. I love supporting good food and small businesses over chain restaurants. Soooo good.
