“Fine Dining in Cobourg”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2012

You will not be dissapointed in any of the menu choices. The service is attentive, but nicely timed to enjoy all of the delectable choices. Steaks are done to perfection. Seafood & Pasta dishes are both highly reccommended. The atmosphere is Victorian Inn at its finest. Ask for the room with fireplace. Great for a large family dinner or an... More

“The only food the place offered was for the elite in tastel Nothing for a general average meal not even a regular chef's”

They need to cater to a more open type menu with food that is not covered in sauce or served with sauce. etc I understand the venue if of that nature but when I attended it was for a wedding anniversay where the venus was not of my choice several of us tried to find something on the menu we...

You made some great comments about offering a more varied menu and offering some lighter cuisine options. I will take it up with the culinary team and management. The next time you are with us and you don't see anything that works for... More

“Cobourg's only true fine "dining experience"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

The menu, the wine list, the staff... all outstanding! If you are lucky enough to be there on an evening that innkeeper Stephen Della Casa is present, you'll have access to one of the area's finest sommeliers. We're never disappointed with dinner at the Woodlawn. More

“Lovely food, wine, decor and service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

The menu has more Italian influence that I had expected but then the owner has Italian roots. The Woodlawn has an extensive wine cellar. If you can find 8 people, the cellar master's dinner is well worth it at $85/person. It's best to reserve a few days ahead but we were accommodated with 24 hours notice. More

“A Class Dining Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

We frequent this dining establishment for its brunches which are heavenly. Located in what used to be Dr Lloyd's residence it has added a few motel rooms at the back - the quality of which I'm unaware. This place continues to maintain a very high standard. More

Hello ACGardiner Thanks for taking time out for the review. We have many guests that remember the Woodlawn from the Doctor Lloyd era. I was told he was quite a socialite! Although we have been operating the Woodlawn for 24 years I always enjoy hearing those stories and I am glad that have continued to enjoy the Woodlawn Inn over... More
