The Woodlawn Inn

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch there. Very beautiful setting. Historic building. Dry nice that Mr Della Casa stopped by to say hello.

The Woodlawn Inn is a wonderful dining experience. We had our anniversary dinner and my birthday there this past Saturday. The service was impeccable and the food was excellent.

We HGHLY recommend going to the Woodlawn for any special occasion. The tables are separated enough that you don’t overhear other conversations but we noticed that they also have dining rooms for larger groups.

The bar in the lounge where you can wait for your guests to arrive looked VERY nice and would be a pleasant place to have a quiet drink with your significant other.

Although staff was fairly friendly, poor service and very slow. Asked for coffee, and after nothing, waited 20 mins until asking again. Food was cold and not tasty, and breakfast came with 6-8 small pieces of potatoes hash. A friend has recommended it, but probably will never return again. Not worth the money.

The food was simply terrible. Everyone in our party of four was of the same opinion. This is the second time we have had the same experience. We will not return.

Will return..enjoyed our evening very much!

Had a nice lunch..our guests reported that the tortiere was a bit too “meaty”.

Eggs Benedict was delicious with exception of the very tough bottom on the English muffins..hard to cut through with a knife.

Setting and service..excellent..quiet, lovely music.

Fantastic restaurant in 19thC home converted to restaurant. 18 guest bedrooms inclufing two adjacent cottages.

On the occasion of my 80th birthday I was treated to lunch by friends of 40 years. The lunch was wonderful,, our waitress was extremely pleasant and helpful. On the whole the ambiance of the time we spent in the Woodlawn Inn was perfect. Have been in the past, and that was why I recommended the Inn as the venue for my special birthday. Definitely worth the drive, and will certainly return again soon.
Thank you

Great chef prepared food. They went out of their way to accommodate gluten free requests. Love my desert!!! Waiter was friendly and provided excellent service. Will definitely go back.

The food was good, the service was excellent, the atmosphere of the historic Inn was a great back drop. We were very comfortable and most certainly will return for another visit.

We had been very pleased with dinner on the occasion of my wife's birthday a couple of months ago, and were looking for a high quality meal again. We were not disappointed. There are few truly classic restaurants anymore in this area, but the Woodlawn Inn never disappoints.

This was our second visit and we will be back for a third. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. The roasted root vegetable soup was delicious, the filet of beef was cooked perfectly, and the accompanying risotto tasted fabulous. The red wine that our waiter recommended went very well with my steak, and their maple creme brule was the perfect finish to our meal.

We were a group of 8 for Thanksgiving brunch. The food was lovely, and the atmosphere delightful. It was also very reasonable for all that was offered. Could become our new Thanksgiving tradition!

Great atmosphere. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. Extensive menu. Loved the food. Very enjoyable experiance.

Overall excellent, however only ONE vegan, gluten-free option for entre, and none for deserts.

As always it was a great evening. Excellent food. John our waiter is always helpful if there are questions about the menu.

Quiet dining in a relaxed setting. Caesar salad and filet of sole are to die for.

We had the Vegetable Tower, just delicious, the Veal Scaloppini nice and tender, for appetizer
spinach with kale salad, very different, for dessert the Kahlua Tiramisu just melted on your tongue.
we really enjoyed our meal, including the friendly service.

I have been there several times and I would recommend it for nice elegant dining in Cobourg. I will definitely go back the next time I am in town.

Good menu choices, and food was excellent. Service was good-to-excellent. I would recommend this to anyone who wanted fine-dining -- it was well worth the drive from the GTA.

Amazing as always !! My friend lives in Cobourg and whenever I am in town we go out for dinner here. Michelle is amazing!!! Thanks Steve for stopping by our table to say hello!

Went for the first time to celebrate our anniversary and was greeted by the innkeeper Stephan a very personable fellow
Had a delicious meal served by very professional waiter , very friendly atmosphere and outstanding ambiance , will definitely return for that special dining experience

Our experience at the Woodlawn Inn dining room was great. The owner attended our table and gave us a brief history of the Inn and of Cobourg in general. Being architecture and history buffs , this was a real plus! Our food was impeccably prepared and served. Thanks for a great one!

Was a very nice meal and service was very good. We would definitely go back.

Lovely evening. Celebrating a wedding anniversary. Very accommodating with our toddler. Service was great.

We have celebrated our Anniversary here before and have always enjoyed the atmosphere , the service and the food. This time did not disappoint.

My wife and I went for dinner on our 44th wedding anniversay. The owner and wait staff made us feel extremely welcome. The food was delicious and atmosphere superb. I will definitely come again. I recommend The Woodlawn Inn to anyone.

great meal - stayed for a getaway for a few days and had breakfasts and dinner there. The food was delicious and the wait staff were attentive and professional - friendly and humorous! Nice touch that the owner circulated to the tables to talk with guests.....would definitely recommend

The food and service were excellent. We were celebrating my wife's birthday and found the dining room setting elegant for the occasion. We were able to enjoy our meal and have a conversation at a normal tone at our table by the window. The food arrived in a timely manner, allowing us to savour each course.

Excellent as always steak was to die salted caramel cheesecake delicious my friend had the salad yum and veal scampini she loved it with the apple pie

It was our anniversary and we totally enjoyed the evening. We enjoyed the setting, food and service. The wine was excellent. The veal could have been cooked a little less as it had burn marks on the edges and tasted a little burnt. The food was hot and tasted fine.

Food was excellent! Server was lovely! Have already recommended it to a few people.

Always a great experience at the Woodlawn. Michelle, Stephen and the Team made sure we had a great and memorable anniversary dinner. Food is always superb, right temperature and flavor. Also on the menu is one of the finest wine lists in the area. Pick from local favorites or rare finds from aroiund the globe. You know you will be a treat when you dine at the Woodlawn. I can say for sure that every time we have a meal there, we tell ourselves that we will definitely be back.

Service in the beginning was very slow.The food was very good

as always lovely service great food in a relaxing diningroom

Would have been perfect if tea and coffee included in the price

Prefer the buffet though

It would have been nice to hear some soft music playing with dinner.

My husband and I had a great experience at The Woodlawn Inn Restaurant. The food was delicious and we were impressed with the service. We will definitely come back to this restaurant.

June 2, 2018. Food was bland.... I had lamb shank which was overcooked and had very little flavour. Dessert (carrot cake) was heavy with little to recommend it. Ate about 1/3 of the food and no one noticed. Probably should have complained but wasn't up to it.
Service was ok but not great. Decor was great. Probably won't go back..... Toronto prices without the taste or service. If I want an average meal I will cook it myself.

The Woodlawn Inn never disappoints. The food is always outstanding. The atmosphere is second to none. If you are looking for a cozy, high-end dining experience, this is the place for you. The service is great. It is a dining experience that you will not forget. Give it a try. You will not be disappointed that you did.
