Where Sheldon Street meets Gurley Street, nestled in the entrance to Downtown Prescott, is local favorite Prescott Junction.
It was adopted into the Gabby’s Family of Restaurants when prior owners Don and Nancy Burton decided to retire. It brings decades of local history and service to the community.
Prescott Junction serves its full breakfast, lunch and dinner menu from open to close (usually 7 Am to 8 Pm Monday to Saturday; and 7 Am to 7 Pm Sunday) with nearly a dozen daily pie options.
For those who can’t decide, breakfast at the buffet bar is served from open until 11 Am.
It then transitions to a full salad bar with three daily rotating soups, a mini taco bar and even a build-your-own frozen yogurt station available all day.
The longevity of the crew speaks to the warm atmosphere of the store and the welcoming yet relaxed nature of the environment.
Locally owned and operated, Prescott Junction recognizes the needs of its community by giving back where it can. For example, opening on major holidays such as Thanksgiving — and even featuring a special holiday buffet bar — has allowed residents to enjoy the holidays without the labor of cooking and cleaning themselves, a popular choice among the retirement-aged community who frequent this mom-and-pop shop.
More recently implemented has been the buy-one, get-one free entree special (with the purchase of two beverages) on Manic Mondays!

Owners Jim and Kelley Cabral saw the need for an affordable, delicious, comfort food meal in a way that was appealing even to those not on a fixed income. Whether you’re in the mood for breakfast for dinner or a little bit of everything, Prescott Junction is sure to send you home full and dreaming of which pie to try on your next stop by.
