ST. GEORGE, Utah — When it comes to brunch in Utah, Salt Lake City may have the crowds, but St. George has the crown. According to a recent Yelp roundup of the best brunch spots in each state, Farmstead Bakery has taken the title for Utah’s top-rated brunch destination.
Farmstead Bakery, a charming European-style bakery nestled in downtown St. George, earned this recognition thanks to an impressive 4.7-star average from nearly 600 Yelp reviews. With additional locations in Springdale and Hurricane, the bakery has become a beloved stop for locals and tourists alike.
The list, compiled by Yelp, was determined by reviews from its “Elite Squad” — a group of highly active and trusted reviewers on the platform. Yelp’s North Jersey Senior Community Director Sara Bunge explained the selection process: “We identified businesses in the breakfast and brunch categories, then ranked those spots based on the volume and ratings of reviews given by Yelp Elite Squad members for each business.”
At Farmstead, more than 80 reviews came from Elite Yelpers, many awarding the bakery top marks. While a large number of reviewers were from Utah, the bakery has drawn praise from visitors traveling from California, Arizona, Nevada, and even the East Coast.
Known for its artisanal pastries and expertly crafted baked goods, Farmstead Bakery offers favorites such as the Almond Croissant, Kouign Amann, and Chocolate Croissant — all frequently mentioned by satisfied reviewers.
Founded about 10 years ago by Chris Herrin, Li Hsun Sun, and Chris Connors, the bakery has built a reputation for its dedication to quality and European-style flair.
