Old-school pub burgers with a deep, well-practiced variations list.
Notable Picks
8.4
A classic Woodside Irish pub where the burger program is the main draw: thick, straightforward patties with a long roster of variations and the kind of side options (onion rings, fries, sweet potato fries) that make it a full pub-meal stop. The best order is a classic build or one of their signature house combinations, eaten at the bar with a beer-first rhythm.
Must-Try Dishes:
The Classic Cheeseburger, The BBQ and Beyond, Onion Rings
What makes it special: Old-school pub burgers with a deep, well-practiced variations list.
A butcher-shop counter where the move is to treat it like a steak-and-burger utility stop: choose one cut or patty format, have it cooked, and keep the rest of the order tight. It’s not a formal steakhouse room, but the pay-off is control—quality meat, cooked simply, with a no-drama neighborhood rhythm.
Must-Try Dishes:
Otto Burger, Jam Burger, Butcher-counter steak cooked to order
What makes it special: A prime butcher counter that will cook your meat to order.
8
A sit-down breakfast option with an Irish-leaning backbone that’s better treated as a plated brunch stop than a quick bite. The menu is most coherent when you commit to their classic breakfast set or a single composed dish instead of trying to sample across categories.
Must-Try Dishes:
Irish Breakfast, Eggs Benedict, Steak and Eggs
What makes it special: Irish-brunch plates in a full-service setting with a composed-menu approach.

What makes it special: All-day neighborhood kitchen where fries pair well with multiple comfort lanes.

Must-Try Dishes:
Fish and chips, Bangers and mash, Burger
What makes it special: A classic Irish-tavern lane that stays steady for relaxed nights.
A pub-first Woodside spot where BBQ baby back ribs land as a straightforward, late-friendly comfort order with slaw and fries. It’s strongest when you treat it like bar food done right—ribs or a classic sandwich—paired with the room’s easygoing energy.
Must-Try Dishes:
BBQ Baby Back Ribs, Reuben Sandwich, Irish Chicken Burger
