Eating at the Brookwood Cafe is an amazing experience. Being served by the adults with disabilities that work and live at Brookwood means I’m helping make a difference and give purpose. It’s truly delicious, too!

I love that 100% of the proceeds go to the community and i loved seeing the citizens working alongside their members. The setting is open and clean and spacious. The food was overall good but could be improved.

We had a delightful experience on a Saturday. It was not crowded & we got excellent service. I want to compliment Tanner, our server. He did an excellent job taking care of 8 ladies! Most of the guests had not been to Brookwood, but had a wonderful experience.

Emily took good care of us that day for lunch. I had an order of calamari and Vivian’s salad, loaded with turkey. Both delicious. Split a crème brûlée with the wife. Also, very nice. This restaurant is solid: very good food consistently and excellent servers and staff. On of our very favorite places to travel to
