Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Woodstock

We’ve had some inconsistent experiences at the River. Really enjoyed it when they first opened, awesome chicken wings app (large sized pieces), good clean food. Seemed like it went downhill after Covid, trouble finding good/experienced staff, food was disappointing. Our food was much better this time, burgers cooked as ordered, fries weren’t greasy/soggy, and our server seemed knowledgeable. Gripes: the salmon dish is underwhelming for the price, the rice that came with it was bland. Also the desserts were mediocre, cheesecake and mousse layer cake were cold and the cheesecake didn’t seem homemade. Overall, though, better than previous recent visits, and hopefully things are on the upswing!

Such a warm welcome as we arrived, a very knowledgeable team, excellent cocktails in the bar before dinner, a well-versed sommelier, & a DELICIOUS menu. As a party of five, We had the duck, scallops, mussels, soups and salads, all of which we enjoyed greatly. The STICKY TOFFEE pudding was one of the very best any of us had ever had…x The fire was roaring, the ambience invited us to linger. Thank you Team Jessica for a fabulous evening.

We ate at the Dorset Inn restaurant several times, as we were staying there. Service is always very attentive. Reservations are honored in a timely fashion.  Burgers, pastas, salads, specials, etc. were all excellent. The dining room and the pub can be a little more noisy than the large cozy dining room. You can eat at the bar. There’s a nice roaring fireplace in the pub area as well.

We loved our experience at Kelly Way! The gardens were beautiful to walk around in - especially with a glass of champagne. Walk through the gourd tunnel. The chipmunks running around were very cute to watch. The food was outstanding! Except that the chicken entree was just basic. Thigh and drumstick with skin & bones made it difficult to eat. I was mostly full by then so it didn't matter. My husband just picked it up and gnaw on it. Yes this is expensive but you're paying for the experience as much as for the dinner and wine. We made great friends at our table from different parts of the world and would definitely return!
