Some things can’t be rushed 🤌
Our signature lamb ragù tagliatelle, along with our lamb shank are two of these such things. Our traditional Italian recipes mean that the lamb is slow-cooked low and gentle, resulting in a rich, comforting dish that is worth every minute it takes.
Open from 12pm daily, fires lit at noon. Call or whatsapp to book, links in bio 🫶

There’s something about a long table, a good bottle, and the people who make you laugh until your cheeks hurt 🫶
That’s exactly what Woodlands is for. Pull up a chair by the fire, order a little too much pasta to share, and let the evening run long. Intentional wine list, proper Italian food, and absolutely no rush to leave.
Open from 12pm daily, fires lit at noon. Call or whatsapp to book your table, or find us on Dineplan and Ubereats 🤌

It’s time to spotlight some of our new wines!!!
None of these wines have come to use as a name on a recommended list. We know the people behind these wines. We know the makers and the distributors personally. We consider them friends. This is our Italian touch: to be in close relationships with the crafts people who offer us such beautiful things from the land, and to make food with it. Each one of these wines is paired with a dish on our menu too, so you can experience it with our touch.
Come try them ❤️❤️❤️

Mondays don’t have to be the enemy 😉
Tomorrow is PIZZA MONDAY at Woodlands, which means 50% off ALL our pizzas, every Monday. Yes, all of them 🤌
Order our signature lamb ragu pizza (trust us, you’ll thank us later), and if you’re keeping it green we’ve got loads of vegetarian options too. Thin, crispy and best shared with good company.
Fires lit from 12pm, dine-in only for the Monday deal. Call or whatsapp to book your table, links in bio 🫶
