I can't believe I've never been to this bar. Simply amazing. A drink menu that rotates monthly. Any type of whiskey/bourbon you can think of, and quite a nice craft beer selection. The Woods is a great bar. You can't go wrong here
Really awesome place! I love the decor and the cocktails are real cocktails. Friendly staff too. Definitely worth stopping by whenever you are downtown.
Although on the main street it feels like a hidden speakeasy as you go up the stairs to a bar/lounge area.
The staff were lovely and the drinks were strong! Music was nostalgic and for the right crowd.
We ordered the 3 Rim Repo (purple) and the Somewhere in Tulum (gold).
I'd like to come here on a busy night and enjoy the vibe of the place.
Awesome bar and lounge. Small and spacious all at the same time. Great drink menu. We all loved everything we ordered tonight. Had a host seat us that was really nice and our server/bartender was also really great. When we got here it was not crowded at all, us and maybe 2 other tables but at 10pm it got slammed with people from a game that just ended near by I'm pretty sure. Glad we got there when we did. We loved the more quiet vibe and the music was the perfect level of volume (not to mention a AMAZING selection of music too) The cheese curds were really tasty. Almost like a garlic bread/cheese curd hybrid it was damn good.
And both of their wings were also good.
Glad we stopped by. I recommend this bar for a good group of people to sit around and talk and drink with a bite to eat for several hours.
This place had a really cozy vibe to it. I came here with my friend after a long photoshoot and it was definitely the right choice. Our bartender was very kind and helped us right away. I had ordered cheese curds and they came out fairly quickly, and ofcourse they tasted great as well. It was a great compliment to the Snowflake Whispers cocktail that I ordered. I like drinks on the sweeter side so If you like sweet cocktails I definitely recommend Snowflake Whispers, it's pretty refreshing! Overall I had a great experience and I'm definitely coming back with more friends.

I have been a The Woods customer for over five years. They have recently come under new ownership. I must admit that the place is now very well decorated, and the bar area is more organized than before.
At about 8:30 PM on Saturday, I had two well-crafted Old Forester - Old Fashioned - $8 each. Bartender - Rachel was great and knows her craft well. The bar started quiet and relaxing, with maybe only six people. About 20 minutes later, a group of guys showed up, and the bar below (which I think is the same owner) was testing their sound system, so the bar went from quiet to loud, therefore the four stars vs five stars for Atmosphere.
There was only one negative review item, which moved the Woods down the list of bar locations I would patronize in Downtown Orlando - I tend to tip between 15% to 40% depending on the service, and rarely do I tip at the 15% level. The Woods now has an "Automated Service Fee Gratuity “ - 20%. I tipped $3 additional but was told I could not "reduce the amount.” Was glad that the bartender also told me "Gratuity" was included. I understand the reason for Auto Gratuity for groups of people or maybe during Happy Hour, but I also believe that if a bartender pours me one $4 - $6 beer, a $1 tip is good, or that poor overall service should get my lowest tip %.
What other Downtown Orlando Bars have implemented "Automatic Service Fee Gratuity"? If not for the gratuity issue, would have given The Woods - 5 stars for this review.
First time visiting this bar for a work occasion. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and upstairs esthetic's. It does have we're in the "woods" type of feel minus the tree's and nature but i did love the decor.
Our bartender was awesome. He was able to make my type of drinks that weren't on the menu and they were strong! Just what i needed after a long day and brining in the weekend.
They also have a food menu and weekly specials. They offer a 25% off discount for service workers as well.
Atmosphere is beautiful, bartenders are top notch, craft cocktail was delish I got a dark and stormy. They also had table top board game things which was fun. Music was beautiful. Such a relaxing, kickback space with quality drinks and staff, but there are stairs you have to walk up not sure if there was an elevator
Honestly, the best craft cocktails I have ever had. Both the menu options and the cocktails suggested by Morgan were FANTASTIC. We plan on coming here weekly. In addition, the service was incredible. Morgan was fun to talk to and Chris was very attentive. Their cheese curds are unlike any other and their mac and cheese bites were absolutely delicious. Awesome vibe. If you’re looking for great craft cocktails, good food, and a place to hang out... The Woods is your place :) 10/10
My cousin discovered this cool place while we were staying in Orlando for a RE/MAX conference. We were looking for some special places to experience Orlando night life on our level - which of course means the best, small, intimate bars with an excellent mixologist. The bartenders took special interest in making sure our cocktails and appetizers were on par - and they hit the spot precisely. We highly recommend to any newcomers to the city! Go up a hidden stairwell and enter a special place of awesome art and ambiance! We will come back!
Steven took really good care of us! Went out for a bit with some co-workers and we had a great time hanging out with him on a chill Monday night. He made us a super yummy improv shot of creme de mint and amarula cream. Highly recommend!
When I’m down there’s only one place that can get me going, and that’s the Woods Orlando. Once you walk up those stairs you’re in the mood because of the sexy jungle tree house ambience. I’ll take an espresso tini or 3 hehe. The manager nick (has tattoos) made me put my shirt back on but I now understand it’s a classy joint. 10/10 would recommend.
