Vegan Restaurants in Petrified Forest National Park

“We went to petrified forest in early May because it was on the way to Utah and we had heard about it earlier. Petrified forest, being right off i 40, is such a neat place to stop at. The painted desert and blue mesa were so nice and great. Plus we barely saw anyone and it was so peaceful. I also saw some peiroglyphs and we passed by where route 66 ran through the park. There were also hundreds if not thousands of petrified logs scattered throughout the park that ranged in sizes. Overall, this park was an easy 5 star.“

“Convenient Stop for Souvenirs with Fluffy Fry Bread.
Located right near Petrified Forest National Park, the Painted Desert Diner is a highly convenient stop during a day of exploring. The diner is exceptionally clean, making it a comfortable place to sit down, and it doubles as a great spot to shop for local souvenirs.During my visit, I ordered the fry bread. Visually, the dish looked incredibly appetizing, and the bread itself was beautifully fluffy. However, the overall flavor profile fell a bit flat, and the beans in particular lacked seasoning. Fortunately, they provide bottles of spicy sauce at the tables, which helped add a much-needed kick to the meal.While the food could use a bit more flavor depth, the clean environment, friendly convenience, and gift shopping make it a worthwhile pit stop when traveling through the park.“
