Why Sedona is Trending for Bachelorettes

Sedona is the antidote to a loud Nashville or Vegas weekend. The red rocks, the spa scene, and a dining lineup that keeps getting better make it ideal for a group that wants hikes, vortex tours, and a great dinner instead of a club.

The food scene shifted in the last year or two, so here is what is actually new and worth your group's time in 2026.

Broome & Orchard

Broome & Orchard is one of the newer arrivals, from the well-known Shugrue Restaurant Group. It mixes cuisines in a sleek, modern room with a large patio looking straight at the red rocks.

This is the spot for a group dinner where you want the setting to do half the work. Reserve the patio for golden hour and aim for a table of your whole crew.

Mariposa Latin Inspired Grill

Mariposa, from chef Lisa Dahl, remains the single best sunset reservation in town and continues to refresh its menu. The cliffside patio over the red rocks is the photo your group will actually frame.

Book this one the moment your dates are set. It sells out weeks ahead on weekends, and there is no better golden-hour table in Sedona.

Butterfly Burger

Also from Lisa Dahl, Butterfly Burger is the fun, lower-key counterpart for a casual group lunch. Think elevated burgers, a pink-and-playful room, and strong cocktails that photograph well.

Great for a midday refuel between a hike and a spa appointment.

The New Casual Wave

Beyond the showpiece spots, a cluster of newer casual restaurants has opened around the Verde Valley, including Doc's BBQ & Whiskey, Naughty Burgers, and Pho Legend. These are useful for a group that wants a cheap, fast meal on a hiking day without a long wait or a big bill.

Build the Weekend Around Wellness

Pair the dinners with what Sedona does best. Book a group vortex or jeep tour for one morning, a spa block at one of the resort spas for an afternoon, and an easy sunset hike at Cathedral Rock.

That rhythm of hike, spa, great dinner is the whole reason to pick Sedona, and the new restaurant lineup finally matches the scenery.

Planning Notes

  • Spring and fall are peak. Summer is hot and quieter, and winter can be cold at night, so pack layers.
  • Sedona is spread out, so plan to rent vehicles or book a tour van rather than relying on rideshare.
  • Reserve Mariposa and Broome & Orchard well ahead for any group over six.
