I've driven by this place so many times without stopping in. I'm sorry I didn't sooner. The crab cakes are amazing!! Crab kept falling out of the sandwich and that's a good thing! The steak was great too. Even the mac and cheese and cole slaw was very good. You can tell they used quality cheese. I will be a repeat customer for now on. Only flaw is the parking but worth searching for a place to park. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Still, hands down, the VERY BEST Crab Cake Sandwich from O.C. to Lewes. Excellent Staff and Vibe. Parking can be a challenge in Season so, go during the Off-Season, they're open!

Generally think that the crabcake at Woody’s is one of the best around. That said, my last meal was a single crabcake platter that came with a few fries and bit of salad. Served in a single plate. Was $30. My crabcake was quite small and I thought the value was just not there. My wife had a crabcake on salad, and her crabcake was considerably larger, so no complaint there.

Food was great. But just watched them deny to serve a veteran with a service animal at the bar. The man tried to explain that it was a service animal but the extremely rude bar person continued to tell him he could sit on the patio with his dog. I even showed him the Delaware law regarding Service ANIMALS, this not an option and this establishment should be fined for not complying. Often times these Service Animals are helping people with emotional and psychological issues that could be triggered by unlawful actions by disreputable establishments like this. No matter how above the law an establishment believes that they are (even if supported by locals), the ADA is the law period. Don't support these places, so they will go away. For the record, the owner was called and clarified that individuals with Service Animals were only allowed on the patio.

I love crab. All kinds. BUT Woodys has the best CRAB CAKE I’ve ever had. I started with a delicious bloody Mary topped with crab meat. Ordered a crab cake sandwich without a bun ….watching my carbs. ITS ALL MEAT & cooked to perfection It came with a side of coleslaw. That was also very good. We sat out on the deck, which is dog, friendly, and beautiful weather this past October. Our server was the best ! Cant wait to go back.

Best CrabCake I have ever had. Just pure jumbo lump crab meat…absolutely no fillers. Made the way they are supposed to be made. Just delicious. Spoiled me. Don’t think I will ever to eat one someplace else. Oh yeah, sides were good too. Trying to figure out why I never ate there before.

Hands down best crab cakes ever! Never miss a visit to Woody’s while on vacation in Dewey Beach. Their crab pretzels are also amazing!

On one of the busiest nights (Labor Day), our party of four was seated immediately at a great table. Instant fast attention by the waitress followed. Our drinks and food arrived rapidly…and all of the glowing reviews re: Woody’s crab cakes are well deserved! We never skip Woody’s when in Dewey!

Went for apps and dessert, this was the perfect spot. Carrot cake was outstanding. My hubby had peel and eat shrimp and thought it was awesome.

First restaurant we visited in Dewey Beach. Good fast service, crab cake was amazing, huge chunks of tasty crabmeat! Was not a big fan of the tots topped with crab dip and cheese, they were greasy, good enough to down with a beer though.
Prices are very good especially when you’re the best in a summer town. I had the shrimp tacos.. 9 nice size fried shrimp with a chipotle aioli . The onion rings were crisp with an easy, slow heat to the dipping sauce. The ahi tuna wrap was great too!

I just want to leave a review because the service that I received here was really good. I have a gluten allergy and when I arrived I asked what is gf, they said a lot of the food may have been cross contaminated so they offered to plate up all my food fresh in the kitchen. This only took 10 mins and this was really nice. Very helpful staff would definitely recommend the carvery

Best crab cake I’ve ever had. And I’ve had a ton! It tasted like someone picked a crab then immediately made a crab cake and served it to me. Heaven!!!

Food was very good. Host was not. We needed a high chair, 4 adults. When a low table opened up she sat a couple, even though a high table was available in 5 minutes. We waited 90 minutes with a toddler Was told 45. No apologies. Nothing! Our families totaled 30. Have houses there. Will not be back
