Fresh-baked bagels and coffee, Kanab's favorite morning stop
Jakey Leigh's is the bagel-and-coffee stop Kanab locals and Grand Canyon-bound travelers both swear by. It's a small counter-service cafe and bakery doing everything fresh each morning — hand-shaped bagels with real chew, flaky pastries, breakfast sandwiches, and espresso drinks that regulars come back for daily. With a 4.2 rating from over 1,000 reviews, it's one of the most-reviewed breakfast spots in town, and reviewers consistently point to the same things: bagels baked fresh on site, a smooth espresso pour, and a crew that's friendly even when the small dining room fills up.
Kanab sits roughly 80 miles from the North Rim, making this a solid fueling-up stop before or after the drive up Highway 89A and Highway 67, and it doubles as an easy breakfast stop if you're routing through Kanab toward Zion or Bryce on the same trip.

Have parking lot, indoor, and outdoor seating. Staffs are friendly. Price and potion are just right. Coffee (Americano and Latte) are just ok. Bagels with cream cheese tased good. Do not offer jam for the toast. You do need to clean up your plate after you are done.

Hazelnut Truffle coffee was amazing! Breakfast sandwich was top notch! Everyone was so friendly! Just a touch crowded(which I guess is a good thing). I may eat here every day that we are in town!

We stopped here early January, and I won't lie, it was by default due to limited places being open- little did I know I was in store for the best bagel in Utah. The barista told us they bake them fresh every morning. I'm not a bagel girl as most are giant and doughy... not these. Perfect size, chewy and tasty. So good, we stopped back in on our way back north a week later. The pastries also looked amazing... maybe next time!

This is a great little spot for a quick breakfast and coffee (or in my case hot chocolate) for breakfast. The apple turnover was super flaky and delicious and the breakfast sandwich was filling and good. Service is friendly.

This place has great bagels that are fresh, perfectly toasted, and have a chewy texture. The coffee is smooth and rich, just what I needed to start my day. Friendly service and highly recommend if you’re looking for delicious bagels and a good cup of coffee!
