we shared the charcuterie board and slow roasted lamb, then finished with a shared dessert. Plenty for two people and really delicious.
All good except for an annoying fly. Recommend for special occasions.
Lovely place to dine, highly recommended! The charcuterie board was amazing
Everything about the experience was excellent for my wife and I.
It is incredibly rare we both get a meal we each enjoy, so this was a superb occasion.
The food was amazing, the service was amazing, everything was amazing
We had a lovely evening, amazing food and our waitress Chloe was amazing

atmosphere lovely
the only thing was my eye fillet I requested to be cooked rare was medium rare but still delicious
also had my dad with me and he found it hard to hear as the music was a little loud
I would definitely recommend the Woodhouse overall excellent
Christmas Eve lunch with family. Service was great and they included our 11 year old son in conversations. Wagyu steak was fantastic.
Always a favorite
The food, staff and service is always of high standard.
Quite possibly the best meal we have ever eaten. We had the Woodhouse Experience and every dish without fail was outstanding. We also had the matched drinks - which were also exceptional.
The service was awesome and only out done by the meals.
It was our 41st wedding anniversary so made extra special for a great night out.
Couldn’t fault anything.
Food amazing!
Thank you Woodhouse. 🤗🤗🤗
Staff were professional and attentive to our needs.
My husband and I both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. A delicious blend of flavours on one plate.
The restaurant was full, but still a quiet tone throughout, which was really lovely over lunch.
Definitely recommend!
Always a lovely meal, and the service was always of high standard.
Every time I dine at the wood house I’m impressed. Their consistency and quality of food is second to none over a long period of time. I always thoroughly enjoy the culinary experience, with enough seperate areas to be personal and quiet. Waiters know their stuff and are attentive to the customers. Thanks for another great night.
The service was great and food unbelievable
Thank you again
Dined outside on the weekend with family for a small christmas dinner get together, and
what a beautiful evening. We were fully covered from the elements they have heaters and fans to cover all types of weather. Food was exceptional and staff very friendly and professional. Can't wait to go back again and support another wonderful local business.
Great food, service excellent, ambience fantastic, always enjoy dining at the Woodhouse.
Disappointed the "Lunch Menu" has been deleted. The food was excellent, but a little too costly for a lunch. Lunch menu was always a draw card.
Took my wife there for her birthday. She had pork belly & scallop, l had oysters from the specials board for starters. Mains were eye fillet & rump perfectly cooked to our liking with a Waldorf salad. Finished with a colourful desert plater. All washed down with a lovely bubbly. All food was sensational & the girls gave great service with a smile. The verdict- we’ll be back!
Very good experience for special birtday occasion
The woodhouse is a lovely venue for a special dinner. it's quiet, so you don't have to yell across the table and the staff are very attentive. the food was excellent, would definitely go back!!
Fabulous food, service and environment! Highly recommend!
Our meal was outstanding the service impeccable and I have already made our next booking for our 25th wedding anniversary. I cannot think a better way to celebrate. Highly recommend for any or no occasions.
Meal was very good, service was excellent, wine list included a good selection of local wines. Would recommend dining here.
Everything excellent , so no comments. Will be back when next in town.
Had a great dinner at the Woodhouse, the service was excellent and the quality of the food was fantastic. Would highly recommend a visit.
This was a return visit and the Woodhouse is simply amazing on every aspect. The steaks are the best we have ever eaten and the attentive, friendly service is what you wish you could enjoy everywhere. It’s a must visit!
