Little dive bar type place. Great food though. Beer batter shrimp was great. Wife had the grilled chicken was great also. Happy our is 3-7 with $1 beers and well drinks. Can't go wrong with that.

Best place we went to on St John!! The happy hour is AMAZING! $1 beers, $1 well drinks, and other great specials. You must try their "Bushwacker" drink... It tastes like a chocolate milkshake, with lots of alcohol! Their chicken wings are also the BEST wings I have EVER had in my life! I have tried A LOT of wings,... More

We have paid a fortune for drinks and food at places like the Westin and Woody's is the best place on the Island to fine food and a drink! It is the best Happy Hour on St. John and by far the best place to hang out AND the best staff...

Great fish sandwiches and fritters, super casual, laid back vibe, on a very busy street so pretty loud if you eat outside, but the food is yummy, reasonably priced and staff is friendly, great for a quick lunch, and one of the few places in town that serves good after 10pm

My wife and I stopped here for a few drinks and a bite to eat before catching the ferry back to St. Thomas based on a friend's recommendation. I am glad that we did! The drinks were strong, and the food was good. When we get back to St. John, Woody's will definitely be on our list for a return... More

This turn out to be my favorite place on the island. Fun, fun, fun. Great friendly help and you mix it up with all the other patrons because it's small and you're all on top of eachother. All the food was very good but try the mussels for a real treat. Not for the stodgy and no water views but... More

My family thoroughly enjoyed our late lunch at Woody's recently (right before a kitchen fire... we hope they are back in action soon). My Painkiller was the best on the island (I like them with the extra Coco de Lopez) and the conch fritters were hearty, spicy, and filling. My husband raved about his Mahi-mahi sandwich, my teens loved their... More

Dear snowyknoll, Thank you for your great review. I was very pleased to read your kind words about our food and service. To clarify, Woody’s did not experience a fire. Regrettably Cafe Roma, a restaurant behind us did and we were forced to close because of the amount of smoke. We are open and ready for business. Again thank you... More

You walk in the room and instantly feel a positive vibe from everyone else in the room having a great time. Within Minutes you will most likely meet new friends that you'll stay in touch with long after your vacation has come and gone. The food is excellent, the staff is always on their A game and the positive vibe... More

$1 well drinks and coors light from 3-6pm daily. Excellent apps and a nice slice of americana if you are suffering from island fever.

Decent value as the portions were large but just your basic OK fried seafood joint. They are open a little later than most of the other Cruz Bay restaurants.
