Reviews of Woodley Cafe

Good food. Portion size was very adequate. Atmosphere was relaxing, sitting outside and watching everybody else fly by.. Waiter was a little difficult to understand but service was decent. Menu was quite large, I must say, which surprised me for DC. If you want American food, here's the place to go , especially with kids. Our 4 kids commented on how good the food was that they ordered off of the kids menu.

As it was a rainy day, and we had just left the zoo on our way back to our hotel cross town, before we hopped on the Metro, we stopped here. And while the placed was not packed at around 1PM, the service staff was very friendly and attentive, and the food arrived quickly. My kids, who had not been impressed with the food options near our hotel, gave the Woodley Cafe 5 stars each. They liked the food (cleaned their plates) as well as the interior of the cafe — clean, cozy, quiet — and even remarked positively about the service! It made a rainy day of sightseeing just a whole lot better. Definitely 5 stars!

Woodley Cafe has a warm, welcoming atmosphere. They accommodated our group of 7 quickly. I have many food allergies. The manager and server worked conscientiously and gladly with me to figure out a delicious and safe meal for me. The service was excellent and my friends enjoyed their meals as well.

For starters, any place that serves breakfast all day is at the top of my list! Had scrambled eggs, hashbrowns and bacon...for dinner, why not! My son had the pizza, loved it!! My sister had the grilled chicken and it was delicious as well. In summary, everything is great here. I saw the biggest burger ever at the table next to us, I'm sure that's great too! Ate here when we were in DC 2 years ago, and the food was great then, so this place is consistent, which says a lot. You have to stop by!!

Nice outdoor seating and consistent quality food. Was kind of surprised that we were brought bottled water when we sat down and then we're charged for it. Lots of good people watching and the service was attentive and kind. Don't think this place really stands out among the restaurants in the neighborhood but it was a solid experience.

Stopped in for a quick dinner at the bar while I was in town for a conference at the Marriot nearby. Very attentive service, yummy food, and cheap prices. Oh and the portions were massive! I took almost my whole entree home with me. There were $4 beers and $5 cocktails during happy hour from 4-7 too. And they take to go orders.

We stayed within 2 blocks of this restaurant for a week and ate here at some point nearly every day. The food was really good and the prices were good. The male servers were really good and even gave us tips on cool places to see. The female servers were slow and inattentive. This was the only drawback.
