When you’re looking for a cozy place to dine, there are tons of great restaurants all over the Beehive State, but not all of them are easily spotted. There’s one little gem that’s hidden in a Salt Lake City neighborhood, but it’s well worth searching out. Take the time to find Trestle Tavern, and you’ll be back again and again.
Trestle Tavern is located in the 15th and 15th area of Sugarhouse, and it’s a gem well-worth finding. It’s tucked between The King’s English bookstore and Mazza Restaurant.

You’ll want to start your meal with a Trestle Pretzel, one of the house specialties. This hand-made pretzel has just the right texture and is served with some tasty pilsner cheese sauce.

The pierogies are another favorite to start with, or as a small meal. Choose from pork and smoked cabbage, potato and horseradish, or farmer’s cheese - they’re all savory and delicious.
