Woody's Brewing Co. - Redding, California

Great food! Definitely recommend their Philly cheese steak!! Or honestly anything with their beer cheese!! Cheese was so good I asked for some to take home. Also loved the house made tots! My son ordered the Mac and cheese off the kids menu and they gave him a great portion size! Most places don’t give a good sized kids meal and my son ends up picking off my plate.
We ordered a flight to be able to sample some beers they had and the Oktoberfest ended up being our favorite!

We have been going to Woody's for years and have not been disappointed until today. My husband's fish and chips were excellent, as usual. This is why I gave a 3 star review. My Philly cheesesteak sandwich was completely disappointing. The bun was not toasted at all, the meat, peppers and onion portions had been cut back to the point of skimpy!! The beer cheese was watery!! I buy the beer cheese by the quart frequently to bring home for cooking. Definitely, not buying beer cheese by the quart with this watered down version. We will be giving Woody's another try, in the future, hopefully it was just a bad day!

Wow just wow. Went here for the first time today (8-30-24) with a buddy, and the waiter recommended some beers then he told me to hang on and let me try them. I found one I really liked and went all out and got a growler of it. Service like this is hard to find today and this place hit it out of the park. I highly recommend….

It was my first time here, and I had to say the food was outstanding. I had the fish and tots. It was crispy and juicy, and I added a touch of malt vinegar. I will definitely be coming back next time I'm in town.

Very inviting atmosphere. Really fast service. They have a great cherry cider on tap. We ordered the California chicken burger.
The chicken was very done. We also ordered the Mac and cheese, which seemed to taste like horse Radish was in it, and also the chicken alfredo, which was very dry. They have very large portions. Their fries are really yummy. I asked for a gluten-free bun, which they charged me two dollars extra for. For the chicken burger and cider, it was $30 without tip.

Woody’s is one of my favorite places to eat in Redding! The atmosphere is simple with great music always playing, the service at Woody’s is just right in my opinion (NOT overly bothersome/nagging, but always checked upon as needed), their microbrews are all fantastic, and the food is always consistent & well worth the short wait!
I’d highly recommend trying for yourself, I’m sure you’ll become a returning patron too!
Pictured is The Bacon Bleu Burger (medium-well) & their famous house made tots- ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!

Always great food, cold beers, and good service. One of the best meals I've had in a very long time. Their October Schnitzel special is amazing. Cuts with a butter knife, gravy to die for, huge portion. Amazing service as always.

My wife and I dined at Woodys Brewing Co. recently.
They have an extensive craft beer menu with lots of variety. I’ll review a few of the beers first - then the food.
My wife likes ambers. They had an Irish Ale and a British Brown ale. Our server (great guy - also a bartender there - Gage) recommended the Brown Ale - told her it was a little milder.
I ordered a West Coast IPA that had a lower IBU than most - Quickie.
Both beers were delicious. I tried my wife’s Brown Ale and it was very smooth with a slight “crispness” - a bit surprising for a British Brown - but was well done. Spot on as the Brits would say ;-).
The Quickie WC IPA was great - a little hop nose - but a fill hop flavor with a light bitterness at the end. Again, well done!

We decided to split a burger and one of their salads. Their burgers are 1/2 lb and enough for both of us.
We ordered the Woodys Burger - classic cheeseburger (we ordered Gouda - delish) with lettuce, tomatoes, some onions and what I believe are their homemade pickles.
Wow, it was out of this world - burger cooked medium as we asked, the Gouda complimented the tomato and lettuce - and the star was the crunchy, tasty pickle slices.
We split the burger in half and both of us devoured it - no leftovers this time 😉

What surprised us and really stole the show was the Wedge Salad. The menu did mention it was 1/2 a head of iceberg cut in quarters - but this salad was huge, full of chopped tomatoes, crunchy bacon bits and a drizzle of a balsamic creamy dressing.
My wife is normally not an iceburg fan - but we both dug in and couldn’t stop eating it.
The combination of the tomatoes, bacon and that creamy dressing along with the crispness of the lettuce - wow, memorable.
Highly recommended.

After eating the burger and getting our complete fill of that salad - we still had some salad left - and Gage kindly put it into a takeout box for us.
I’m mean, how often do you take a salad home as a leftover? In this case - for certain 🙂

Overall - it was a great dining experience with delicious food, fine beer and a great server (Gage).
