Guide
Hoodoo Foods is Bryce Canyon’s seasonal food truck, serving sandwiches, sweet treats, snacks and drinks. It sets up at Farview Point from mid-May through mid-October, at mile 10.25 of the park’s 18-mile Southern Scenic Drive. That makes it a handy meal stop while exploring the southern viewpoints. Its later-October schedule names only an unspecified winter location, so check where the truck is before making it your destination.
This is a quick food stop, not a sit-down restaurant. The operator lists broad categories rather than a current item-by-item menu, so don’t count on a particular dish or dietary option without checking ahead.
Farview Point has a parking lot, restroom and wheelchair-accessible viewpoint. South, the view takes in hoodoos along the Paunsaugunt Plateau and the Rainbow Point amphitheater, with a pine-and-fir forest about 1,000 feet below; east are Paria Valley and Table Cliff Plateau. A flat, 0.15-mile unpaved path heads north from the lot to Piracy Point if you want a short walk after eating.
