The Blue Door Cafe & Bakery in Cuyahoga Falls has been recognized by both the New York Times and Tripadvisor as serving the best brunch in Ohio.

I mean, really? No one makes their own English Muffins. And what's this thing about not even having a commercial freezer? What kind of place is this? As it turns out, The Blue Door is a pretty unique restaurant.

You're about to discover foods guided by the rules of true European pastry and breadmaking, along with dishes made from scratch every single day. Growing up in Germany, chef/owner Michael Bruno was overwhelmed by the smell of yeast and butter and flour and freshly baked breads and pastries. There were also the earthy aromas of freshly roasted and brewed coffee.

But the best food in the world needs a disciplined team to produce it. That's where Michael's twenty years of experience leading an infantry team of US Marines lends itself to guiding his crew of passionate young cooks and bakers. That's why The Blue Door can do things like make its own English Muffins and doesn't need a freezer to pre make dishes - they have the skills to pull off the tasks that would overwhelm most kitchen crews.

It's this passion and structure that makes the Blue Door so unique. Here you have a talented leader commanding a team dedicated to producing the best food possible.

If everything looks so amazingly good that you just can't decide what to possibly get and then absolutely love your order, our mission has been accomplished.
