Where to eat in Yuma: clubhouse grills, Foothills diners and the best-reviewed places in town

Where to eat in Yuma depends on where you play. Near the Foothills courses, use the clubhouses or the diners on Foothills Blvd and Fortuna Rd, which often close by 8 PM. For dinner, drive into town, where the best-reviewed places on Google include Bodega 23, Curries, El Charro Cafe and River City Grill.

This guide sorts Yuma's food by what a golfer needs: breakfast before an early tee time, lunch at the turn or after the round, and dinner. Ratings are Google's, read on Oct 23, 2026; they drift, and hours change with the season. We list no prices because none were checked.

Quick facts

• Most courses on the map have food or a bar on site, from a full gastropub to a snack shack.
• Breakfast: Broken Yolk Cafe opens at 7 AM; many hotels include free hot breakfast.
• Foothills: Izzie's Diner (4.7), Baja Blue Taco's (4.6), Yuma Thai Cuisine (4.4); many close at 7 to 8 PM.

• Late night near golf: Foothills Par 3 Deli & Bar, to about 11 PM on night-golf evenings.

Clubhouse grills and course bars

Yuma Golf & Country Club has a grill and bar serving lunch daily and breakfast Friday to Sunday, but it is a member club, so ask the golf shop whether public players can eat there. Las Barrancas and the Foothills courses sit close together, so the Trackman Deli, The Tipsy Cactus and the Par 3 bar make an easy cluster. The Las Barrancas course guide and the Desert Hills course guide have more on each clubhouse.

Where to eat in Yuma for breakfast before golf

Winter tee sheets fill from first light, so breakfast often means 6:30 or 7 AM.

Many hotels save you the trip: most of the brand hotels on 16th Street, plus the Comfort Inn and Best Western Plus Yuma Foothills, list free hot breakfast. See where to stay in Yuma for golf for the full list.

Where to eat in Yuma's Fortuna Foothills

The Foothills put you next to the courses but a long way from Yuma's restaurant scene. The well-reviewed spots on Google in October 2026:

Westwind Bar & Grill is inside Westwind RV & Golf Resort and runs Tuesday to Saturday, 8 AM to 8 PM, with happy hour from 2 to 6 PM. Near the Foothills hotels, Google also lists Los Manjares 73, Applebee's, Wheezys Grill and Sportsbar, Da Boyz Italian and Bernardo's within a few minutes. Several Foothills places showed 7 to 8 PM closing times, so eat early or drive into town. Our Fortuna Foothills golf guide covers the area.

Where to eat in Yuma for dinner in town

Yuma's best-reviewed restaurants are in town, 20 minutes or so from the Foothills.

By area:

• Downtown and Main Street. From Hilton Garden Inn Yuma Pivot Point or Home2 Suites, Main Street is about 2 blocks away, with Prison Hill Brewing, Lutes Casino, Da Boyz and Holy Smokes. River City Grill and Autentico Sapore Italiano are close by. The Hilton Garden Inn has its own Great American Grille and bar, and Yuma Landing Bar & Grill (Google 4.3) sits next to the Historic Coronado Motor Hotel.
• 16th Street and I-8. Bodega 23 is on W 16th; Burger Theory is inside Holiday Inn Yuma; Cracker Barrel, Penny's Diner, Olive Garden and Ah-So Sushi & Steak are near the hotel cluster, and Aroi Thai is at Yuma Palms.
• 32nd Street and 4th Avenue. Curries and J.T. Prime are both on E 32nd St; Angry Italian and Mi Rancho are on S 4th Ave.
• West side. At Cocopah Bend RV & Golf Resort, the 19th Hole covers breakfast and lunch and a cantina by the pool opens in winter. Downtown is a short drive east for dinner. Downtown is the best area for walking from your hotel to a choice of restaurants and bars.

Eating on a Wellton day

Wellton has two courses but little food at them. The Coyote Den at Coyote Wash serves breakfast and lunch from 7 AM to 2:30 PM between October and April, and the town's information on Butterfield mentions no restaurant. So eat at the Coyote Den between rounds, or have lunch back in the Foothills, about 25 minutes west on I-8. See our Wellton golf guide.

Food on a golf rest day

A rest day adds a few food stops worth planning around. Martha's Gardens Medjool Date Farm is known for date shakes in its farm store, open Monday to Saturday 10 AM to 5 PM from November to April per an undated listing; call ahead. Our guide to Yuma Medjool dates has the details, and things to do in Yuma lists other rest-day ideas. In Los Algodones, remember the clock is an hour behind Yuma in winter; see the Los Algodones day trip guide.

Tips for eating around a golf schedule

• Plan Foothills dinners early. Many places close at 7 or 8 PM, so for a later dinner head into town.
• Use the clubhouse for lunch. Coyote Den closes at 2:30 PM, and the Cocopah Bend 19th Hole at 2 PM.
• Book big groups. The Hills GastroPub takes reservations; for a group dinner, call ahead anywhere. Our Yuma buddies golf trip guide covers evenings out.
• Summer is quieter. Mesa del Sol limits food in summer, and many restaurants and resort activities scale back after the winter visitors leave.
