Courtyard Cafe is a cute place to eat in Brecksville on Rt 82 by Rt 21 in the corner at the plaza.

A  GF menu is available at the restaurant that lists appetizers, salads and main dishes.

  1. This restaurant has a very small kitchen, as told to me by a manager, and “cross-contamination could easily occur”, so it’s hit or miss. Also, there are good, trying-to-be-helpful waitresses, and there’s Heather, who I recently had. She flat-out told me that they won’t treat my food any differently than anyone else’s. I asked if they could just cook my chicken breast on a piece of foil and use clean utensils (didn’t even ask them to clean the grill as some places will do for me — Perkins Restaurant in Hudson). She was plain rude, so I asked for the manager and received the above response from her. All in all, I can’t recommend this place to be safe if you have Celiac.

    1. Here’s an update to my previous comment …
      I always try to give a place two chances, so we went there again last night. And, again, I ordered the grilled chicken breast and asked the waitress if they would, please, cook my chicken with a piece of foil under it so it wouldn’t come in contact with the grill itself. I thought it had been awhile, so they’ve probably changed their routine with GF requests. The waitress said she didn’t see any problem with that. A few minutes later, the manager came to our table … she apparently DID see a problem with that. She said they couldn’t do that. I have no idea why they can’t just slide a piece of foil under a piece of chicken, but she said no accommodations can be made. So, there you go … they WILL NOT make any accommodations for your illness … period. And the attitude we received was as if we were bothering them. Okay, I received your message loud and clear, Courtyard. Now hear mine … we’ll never be back.

  2. Love the house salad and the homemade Italian dressing is the best. They offer some good menu choices.
    However, the potato skins are listed as gf, but when questioned the kitchen verified that they are cooked in a common fryer.
