Southwest Specialties at the Courtyard Café

The Courtyard Café is proud to serve natural, organic and locally sourced products across a seasonally crafted Southwest-inspired menu. Be sure to try our local favorite Oven Roasted Turkey and Melted Brie sandwich, and our nationally recognized Posolé, which was featured in Bon Appétit magazine. Make sure to save room for dessert–the Fry Bread Sundae is highly recommended.

Coffee Cantina

Our quick-serve Coffee Cantina is ideal when you need to refuel with coffee or a snack before continuing your day at the Heard. The cantina offers a selection of gourmet coffee drinks, smoothies, baked-in-house goodies, and grab-and-go salads and wraps to enjoy on our beautiful courtyard patio or take with you to-go.
