I’ve eaten my way through a lot of college towns, but Provo surprised me in the best way. If you’re heading this way, you’ll find way more than quick bites and coffee shops—though I’ve had some great ones here too. I’ve discovered creative chefs, farm-to-table menus, and cozy spots that make you want to slow down and savor. Whether you’re craving wood-fired pizza, global flavors, or just a really good burger, I think you’ll find something that fits your mood. And if you’re like me, you’ll appreciate how many places in Provo manage to feel both relaxed and inspired at the same time.
