Disappointed with the menu changes and price increase. I liked how I used to be able to get the salmon dinner and pick a couple sides, now you're forced to have slaw that isn't good and pickles?? Pay extra for sides, can't sub the slaw... what's the point of having a huge menu of sides but none of them are actually a side to anything without spending way more money than it's even worth? No one wants slaw and pickles with every meal! Bad decision whoever came up with that.

We were unaware it was now open for lunch on weekends again. What a pleasure it was today. Food was good as usual. Great Bloody Mary and excellent service from pleasant greeters to Alex, our server/bartender/new best friend. Can’t wait to go back.

We tried the pulled pork samich, the brisket and the Korean burrito and all of it was really good. I couldn't tell the gluten free mac n cheese was gluten free it was so good. The kids tried the maple salmon and chicken tenders and ate all of it! Nice selection of beer, too.

Food and service: outstanding. We had brisket, salad, drinks, and sides. Everything was delicious. Service is exceptional, one of the best things about this restaurant. Would definitely dine here again in the future.
Great food and atmosphere. Would go there again. The only reason for the 4 stars is that the 3 times we have been there, the meals were inconsistent. Two times our ribs were literally 'to die for', the third time not so much. Update: Went back again and food was great. Salmon was a little dry though. I Loved the Mac n' cheese. My husband's chicken was amazing. I'm getting that next time

We’ve been coming here for so many years and it’s always been amazing BBQ. We stopped coming for a few months and finally decided to return. We were surprised to see the quality go down. We were so bummed out. It almost feels like there’s new owners now and the soul of the food has suffered. We asked if there was new ownership and they told us they were just streamlining the menu. The corn bread muffins are different…They no longer have the green bean casserole side dish. All the sides dishes are super tiny now. All the smoked meats have a bland taste and not served hot. It seemed like the meats have been sitting around at room temperature for a while. I really hope I’m wrong and things get better. I wish them all the best.

Very good. Getting expensive and ala carte compared to the Woodshop from years ago. Still outstanding BBQ, just not 5 star anymore.

The famous (locally) woodshop. An all around good restaurant. The Mac & Cheese is well known, but other less known good dishes are the smoked chicken and wood sticks. They also have many great craft cocktails. The only downside is the higher price.
This is what I call an elevated dive bar. From the second you step out of your car you can smell the bbq smoke, and it smells delicious. Inside they have quite the ambiance as you feel like you're up north. The food was excellent and the service was good but a little slow. We'll definitely be back!

Great Mac n cheese. THE best tater tots ever. The smoked chicken will always be my meat option here. Wonderful find in a town I'd never been to before

I am emotioanl writing this. The Union Woodshop was absolutely one of the best places we have eaten and will go back again and again. My husband is a 100% disabled veteran and has an ADA licensed service dog. We have been illegal discriminated against with the service dog at various public places. The Union Woodshop was 100% in compliant and every single staff member was trained and completely ignored the seevice dog and made the meal better than we could have imagined. We drove 25 mins from one bad restaurant just to come back to the Union woodshop and I thanked the manager for the amazing restaurant, food, and staff that has us feeling comfortable and welcome!

Bartenders upstairs not very attentive. Had one drink, would have had more but apparently we were invisible to them.
