Woodlands Cafe Woodhall Spa

Having lived in the area for nearly 9 years, Woodlands in its various guises over the years is a bit of an anomaly in places I've visited, as we've only grabbed an ice cream on the way past up until today. Having heard lots of positivity, we popped in bang on Midday on a Friday afternoon, and the place was delightfully busy, always a good sign and a welcome one in the current climate. We were greeted at the door and shown to a table, served quickly and the coffees and our lunch (two lovely pastrami and smoked cheese toasted sandwiches) also arrived quickly. Really enjoyable hour or so, and certainly somewhere worth visiting for breakfast or lunch in Woodhall, without paying the usual "Woodhall Prices"

Great little cafe in the village of Woodhall Spa. Inside is decorated lovely and there is an outdoor terrace also. It was peak lunch time when we arrived so although there wasn’t a table we were greeted and asked if we would wait. We were shown some high back chairs to wait on until a table was ready. Wonderful, fresh food, great quality and lots of choice. I very much recommend the ploughman’s and the quiche or the day.

A busy and very popular place...was full on first walk by at 10.30am and again at 12pm (which was a good sign that worth a visit) Couple of empty tables at 1.30pm so had first time visit for lunch with a friend. Well worth the wait....a warm, quiet, friendly atmosphere. Staff/Customer Service spot on...acknowledged as soon as entered and served/attended to shortly after. Wow! What to choose menu/daily specials/cake/desserts/ice cream. Opted for Club Sandwich which is listed as toasted but, Staff happy to oblige with my request for untoasted wholemeal bread. Friend opted for jacket potato. Both meals arrived promptly, well presented, hot and very tastey. Coffees also of great quality and sizes to please. Endeavoured to return again and, did so for coffee 3wks later, with another friend at 3pm (After 12.30pm Kinema in the Woods visit) was informed that cake/desserts and beverages only available as close at 4pm but, Staff/Customer Service still spot on and made to feel just as welcome. Raspberry and Lemon Meringue Cake was lush, light and moist, with tang of lemon and sharpness of raspberries... absolutely delicious and accompanied with yet more great tasting coffees. Thank you - See you soon

Popped in for lunch and the cafe was very busy, we managed to get the last available seats. It was a hot day, so the outside area was also busy. The cafe is nicely decorated, with a friendly atmosphere, and welcoming staff. We had their club sandwiches, which were delicious and well presented. In addition to the main menu, there is a blackboard on the wall inside with daily specials. Also worth popping in for the excellent selection of ice cream. Enjoyed our first visit here and will definitely call back again.

Had my first experience at Woodlands cafe this morning after spending a night in Woodland Spa and oh my goodness, I knew I was in for a treat when there was a queue before opening time and I was not disappointed! What a local treasure this cafe is, I’m envious of the locals that have this on their doorstep. Everything from the quaint decor, to the amazing customer service and not to mention the fantastic options the menu has to offer. I went for the Woodland Breakfast and I could not fault it any way whatsoever. The coffee served was exquisite so much so I couldn’t help take away a bag of coffee beans that is available to buy in the cafe. The cafe offers an array of fresh cakes and plenty other options to enjoy after your breakfast or lunch or simply just pop in for a wee afternoon tea / coffee and sweet treat! With indoor or outdoor seating to choose from you’ll never be disappointed and it’s an absolute must to visit if you’re in the area or just passing through and also being dog friendly is a huge bonus! Five stars from me ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Kate & Leanne and all the staff made us feel super welcome and creat such a friendly and happy atmosphere, nothing is too much trouble at Woodlands Cafe!
