We shared crumbed mushrooms "extra yummy"& cheesy garlic bread "yummy" I had pork cutlet which was beautifully cooked and the wife had spare ribs 'n' chicken wings, very nice. Food was good.
Atmosphere was a tad on the gloomy side and big black flies covered the toilet floor and walls. Service was friendly if a little slow considering we were the only ones in for lunch at the time.

Best country pub meal I've had for ages. The better half had the Atlantic Salmon and holy batfish the skin was perfection!! I had the porterhouse schnitzel and from the golden crumb to the melt in your mouth meat, the whole dish was superb! Fantastic table service that paired excellently with the precisely timed delivery from the kitchen. The Woodside Hotel is one of the hills best kept secrets.

Finally had meal in this wonderful Adelaide Hills pub. The table service was awesome and friendly. The old charm in the dining room is great to see. The food was superb and well priced. I had the Woody Burger which is the best burger I've ever had and my partner had the chicken parmi which was tasty and a good size. We'll definitely be back for another meal soon. The front bar is also a favourite of ours as it's relaxing and the owners and staff are super friendly

We visit regularly for dinner as the food and service is always superb but the pub itself is old and tired and in desperate need of a good spruce up - nothing too fancy, even a coat of paint to freshen it up perhaps.

Nothing was too much trouble here.
We were looking for some lunch, and the kitchen had officially closed, but the cook was willing to do something for us.
The person who waited for our table was so good she blows her score way out of the water. If I could give her 12/5, I would.
We only met one manager, but she was outstanding also. The cook made sure that the meals were perfect. I highly recommend

Used to love having dinner at this pub. Don't know what's happened to it but after the meal I had earlier this week, I won't be back. Entrees were brought out with the mains - what's that about? Haloumi chips garnished with wilted, yellowing (& in some parts black and slimy) microgreens that were difficult to pick off. Garlic prawns (for some reason heavily crumbed), served with half-cooked crunchy white rice & a congealed sauce that had no garlic flavour. Minimal vegetarian options - they used to make the most delicious field mushrooms with pesto & feta. Such a shame. Was really looking forward to a night off from the kitchen & eating something better than I can make myself.

Great pub in the Adelaide Hills. Go there if you want a good old fashioned pub lunch.

Both the quality and size of the meals was amazing. It's so nice to go to a pub that still provides table service, which seems to be disappearing from city pubs. The staff were friendly, service was quick and the food met all expectations. We didn't have desserts but the ones served to the table next to us looked delicious. The menu had plenty of options.

The open fire is a nice touch in the dining room.

If we had to pick anything, the decor needs a bit of updating but overall not too bad.

Good old school country pub full of locals and authenticity. Simple bar service, a few pokie machines out the back and great outdoor space undercover or in the open.

Pool table and TV off the side (although pool table is too close to walls and window).

Old pub style meals. Can't believe the size of the meals which came out. Service was good. Staff did well although it was very busy with a couple of large tables

Love the new renovation!
Went for dinner on a Saturday of the long weekend, it was busy but we still got a table! The staff were fantastic, service and food came out quick!
Great options for all, including Gluten Free!! There was also live music, which was a bonus! Fantastic and worth the drive for a nice meal and good vibes!!

Again just had to kill some time waiting for my chauffeur. But if I was a betting man I would put my house on they do good value meals. In the brief time I was there you had your classic regulars who all went about their socially regional pub afternoon. One in particular that knew every local by name address and preferred tap beer. But the amount of Hills folk who were ordering, picking up their meals was staggering. Thats who you can even review the food at a regional pub without even having a meal there.

Jill and Doug, and Gidget. Great combo, always have a chat, friendly service, great food and atmosphere. Especially when they have bands in the revamped beer garden.

Great food and service. They actually do table service instead of lining up like you're in a prison cafeteria ordering food like every other lame pub in Adelaide metro. Highly recommend!!

Met the publican, who was extremely friendly and a good old style pub. Plus the bonus of having a good supply of my favourite stout.

Passing through the Adelaide Hills I watched my AFL team's game at the Woodside. Terrific front bar with friendly locals and great service.
My wife is vegan and although they have several vegan/vegetarian choices on the menu, they did her a plate of roasted & steamed veggies which she loved.
I had fish & chips and, like I always ask for but hardly ever get, I requested extra crunchy chips. They listened and gave me probably the best chips I've ever had! And the fish & salad were good too.
The Woodside Hotel, its owner, its staff, its cook and its atmosphere are all terrific! Thanks to you all - we'll definitely be back!

I can confirm the meals are really awesome and the beer is super cold. Will definitely be dropping back in as it's the first time I have been here.

This place is a great country pub in the Adelaide Hills. I stopped here for lunch on my way back from Adelaide, great hospitality and Quick service. I had the roast lamb and veggies and tirimasu for dessert, it just melted in my mouth . Would definitely recommend this hotel and I will be definitely back. It had a very warm homely feeling about the place I give this hotel a big thumbs up.

Haven't been for a long time and was quite surprised as we were warmly greeted and shown to seat and drink orders taken. The decor has changed for the better with a relaxing light paint colour, new furniture and carpet.
Our meal was excellent with meat cooked just as ordered and presented nicely. Our waitress was on hand, polite and friendly. We all enjoyed our meal and will bereturning.

A great spot for lunch - we were travelling through the Adelaide hills and decided to stop for lunch here. The menu was good Aussie pub food with a few other options. Seniors menu was quite extensive for those who qualify! The service was friendly and efficient and the food was tasty.

Popped in on the way home to get a meal. We had a chicken parmy and beef schnitzel with gravy. Really happy with the meals. They were good quality, fresh salads and good size. Beef schnitty was huge! The pub is what you'd expect from a normal country pub, but could do with an interior refresh at some stage.

It's good to know that some things never change. I walked into the bar expecting not to recognise it but it was just the same as 30 years ago. Like a mini time capsule. I loved it! The publicans were friendly, the wood fired heater warmed us up and the beer was cold. They even had a juke box in the corner and I haven't seen one of those in years. They supply meals in the dining room but we didn't eat. I'm really happy to have visited and found it just the way it used to be : )
