“Visiting Woodburn, we were looking for good home-style breakfast at a non-chain restaurant. Country Cottage was perfect! Easily found in the country club/senior center building, the entry is a little bit awkward. However, the dining area with view of the golf course from every table and the rustic chic decor make for a charming setting. We enjoyed a delicious meal-hubby said the blueberry pancakes were divine! Service was friendly and some of the regular locals made us feel welcome.“

“Excellent all around! The food was amazing and the staff was fabulous! Our waitress was friendly, had good suggestions, and made us feel like we were her friends! The stuffed mushroom appetizer was too good to be a mushroom. We all ate different entrees but all equally delicious. Bread pudding dessert was huge and so yummy, baked just right! Prices are high but worth it for a special dinner out!Parking: Plenty of parking around back especially if you have a big vehicle but the spots were spacious.“
