This is my third time trying to give this place business!! Unbelievable. The cashiers are generally friendly, but this place has the worst customer service on the central coast! The first time I came here, I was reviewing the menu, waiting for them to wipe down a table. When I placed my order, it was 11:01 AM. Breakfast ended at 11 AM, so the manager wouldn't serve me. I had to LOL. The second time they didn't have what I was looking for. oh well. Third time, I ordered a tub of corn salad ($6.50). I asked if they could do half with couscous ($6.00), and noted that I would pay the higher price or more for any trouble. The cashier wanted to help me, but his manager refused. As she stood there, scrolling on her phone, her only reasoning was it's "too difficult" to put in 2 scoops of couscous and 2 scoops of corn salad. The salad is PRE-MADE. In giant dishes in the deli. And the place was completely empty, per usual. Needless to say I've never been able to give this place business nor will I try again. Highly recommend going somewhere with better customer service.

Walked from our Duplex in Avila over to Woodstone. We have had lunch here many times, but never breakfast. Special was Joe's Hamburger Scramble, which we all ordered. It was delicious. Hamburger had a really nice flavor. Amount of spinach and cheese was perfect. I wish I could have finished it. You order from the Counter. We got there early, so didn't have much of a wait to order. Food was delivered very promptly. It was a little too chilly to eat out on their patio, but the inside seating was fine. This place is always a "go to" for us, so we will definitely be back again.

Great little place to stop in on while walking on the Bob Jones trail. They have good food for meals. Either to go or you can eat on site in a little dining area they have. It's more of a small scale grocers and deli. Every time I've been in here, the folks working have been very nice and I've always been satisfied with the food.

Nice place in a peaceful setting with inside dining, as well as a patio. Nice variety on the menu, but I unfortunately ordered the pear salad. Canned pears when we're in the middle of pear season. The salad dressing looked like yogurt. Ranks as one of the worst salads ever.

I wish google had a zero star rating. The service at Woodstone in Avila is terrible and sadly the food is even worse. My spouse ordered a pepperoni pizza and the waitress, who we tipped generously at the counter, brought out a cheese pizza. When we stated we ordered a pepperoni, she fell just short of calling us both liars. She stated she can take the pizza back and make it a pepperoni, as long as we pay 4.50 extra. We agreed and paid. What came back a short time later was an abomination - a handful of pepperoni slices literally just dropped in the center of the pizza. We actually had to distribute most of the slices evenly on the pizza ourselves. The worst was yet to come - the pizza tasted like it was bought frozen in a grocery store and just put in the oven for 20 minutes. We are members of the Avila Bay Club and were hoping to find a nice place to eat at regularly. We will never return!

FOOD POISONING! Don’t eat here. My husband and I decided to have lunch on the patio. Two bowls of soup and we split a chicken sandwich. This was 2pm. By 5pm our stomachs were gurgling and we were feeling nauseous. By later in the evening it was obvious we were both suffering from food poisoning. The ONLY thing this place has is location. I would not ever eat ANYTHING from there again except maybe buy a package of saltines and take my own water to the patio. DON’T eat their food! You will regret it for days!!!
Lunch was wonderful. The weather was great to eat out on the patio. I am looking forward to revisiting for dinner. They have a daily special, and the week's list looks very yummy.Vegetarian options: They had several vegan and vegetarian options.

Very nice deli/store. Good pizza and sandwiches, quiche,some pastries. Wonderful wine selection. The store has gifts, some other items such as dog food and snacks, sundries etc. The pizza is very good as well as the breakfast burritos. Nice menu. A little pricey but good.

Had a good experience here. The food is better than average and will definitely come back. They were closing soon so we did feel a bit rushed, but that's common for many businesses. They had a decent wine selection and is a good place to stop along the Bob Jones trail for a snack

Repeat visit for lunch with friend..nice setting. Food is above average. I had a turkey sandwich on ciabatta bread. Cold cuts. I recall this this sandwich being real turkey on a croissant. The patio tends to have yellow jackets but there none this time.
