Garden Cafe Woodstock

Great spot! My girlfriend is gluten sensitive and allergic to shellfish, and she's not able to usually eat at restaurants. It was great finding a spot where we could sit down to a late lunch. The service, food, and atmosphere were all stellar. The salads came out with a delicious Dijon vinaigrette so light that it almost wasn't there, lending just enough flavor to the tasty greens without overpowering them. My portabella panini was both light and filling, with tons of flavor. The focaccia made all other breads inferior - crispy outside, with a soft inside that soaked up the aioli and vegetable juices. Her pesto was equally light and delicious. This place was such a great find on an unplanned trip to Woodstock and a great recommendation from the owner of Not Fade Away!

My first time here but my wife was here years ago. We had friends going to the Colony so we had an early dinner at Garden Cafe. It’s located in a great location in the town center. We went about 4:30 on a Friday. It was about half full but we got a table at the front window. The menu options are very varied and creative vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free. We had looked at the standard menu online but we all ordered off of the extensive daily specials menu. I ordered the Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos which came with a side salad, my wife had the vegan lentil loaf with mashed potatoes and sauteed kale. Our friends ordered seared tofu with polenta, which also came with the sauteed kale. Everyone was thrilled with their choices. While each being very different and plated up nicely, no one wished they ordered differently. We were all full and ordered the apple crisp with a scoop of a cashew based vanilla ice cream on top! A great experience and we’ll go back and try something else next time. I don’t think you can go wrong with anything on the menu!

Incredibly delicious with loads of gluten free options!
