Century House

Date night with the wife and we decided to hit up DT Woodstock. The Century House was at the top of our list. It was a beautiful night and the full moon in the backdrop made the restaurant shine. We were immediately seated on the back porch which was still quite comfortable even though it was early January. We started off with a couple of their signature holiday cocktails. Both were delicious. The wife ordered the Honey/Jalapeño Pork Belly app as her entrée and I had the Country Fried Chicken. The chicken and gravy were both so flavorful. I was very impressed. My wife said the same thing about the pork belly. What I was not impressed by was the cold mashed potatoes that my chicken was laying on nor the cold goat cheese grits my wife had as apart of her meal. The temp of the gravy helped. TBH, if the chicken and gravy wasnt so good I would have sent my meal back to the kitchen. Especially considering I paid $30 for my entree. There are many others eateries in the area and we will consider them before decided if we want to eat at the Century House again.

We've driven past this place for years - always looked packed (which says a LOT)! Finally got a chance to go for an early lunch (during the week). Plenty of parking (again, we probably caught it at a GREAT time lol). The restaurant was super clean, had a great bar with a good bit of seats, with some cool looking signature drink specials! It was much bigger inside than I thought (half a dozen 4 seat tables and maybe the same for 2 seat tables. PLUS a little patio for the summer (they had a heater if you dare lol) and, something we didn't even see driving by but they have a big enclosed (with glass) patio that is heated in the winter. Like I said, MUCH bigger than we ever saw driving by. The food was really good. Not a huge menu but more than decent meal and side options. We may have had the absolute best server we've experienced in YEARS - Michelle (I hope I've got that right!).She was outstanding. Attentive, thoughtful, helpful, kind and sweet. Unfortunately, a rarity in 2025.9! We enjoyed our experience. Would recommend if you've never been - pick your time wisely.

Took the family here for the first time. The food was delicious. We had the wedge salad with chicken, a burger and the shrimp po boy. Didn’t have time to snap a picture of the other two. It was all really tasty, fresh and good sized portions. Will definitely go back.

I enjoyed my meal (pork chops). Someone in my party had the Reuben and said it was very good (three others tried a piece of it and agreed). Two had the Ragú and said their meals were “just ok”, and the one who had the fish and chips said it was bland. I can only speak on my meal, and it was very flavorful.

Went in to get some lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Got the fish and chips - some of the best I’ve had anywhere around here with big filets (size of fish sticks) with a little batter just the way I like it. Also got the blackened salmon - so delicious! Would definitely recommend - ask for Connor as the server he was amazing!

This is not only the best restaurant in Woodstock, but it has become my favorite restaurant I’ve ever been to. We’ve been here dozens of times over the past year and every single dish is AMAZING. My personal favorites are the Fried Green Tomatoes and the Blackened Pan Roasted Salmon. The prices are a steal for the amazing food you get. We’ve never had to wait for a seat, regardless of the time or day of week we’ve gone. The staff members are all wonderful. I could not recommend this place enough!

Not accessible, nor family friendly! Last night me and my friend attempted to dine here, both of us with infants under six months old. We were genuinely shocked and disappointed when the hostess instructed us to leave our babies strollers outside of the restaurant. While a baby stroller is not technically classified as a mobility device under the ADA, this policy raises serious questions about the restaurant's commitment to true accessibility. As a public accommodation in the state of Georgia, this restaurant is subject to the federal ADA (Title III) and state accessibility standards (like Georgia Code Title 30, Chapter 3). These laws require a clear and accessible path of travel (a minimum width of 36 inches in aisles) throughout the dining area for patrons using wheelchairs or other mobility aids. If your restaurant's floor plan is so cramped that a standard stroller cannot safely and reasonably be navigated to a table, it is highly probable that your establishment is not meeting the minimum ADA requirements for accessible circulation and seating. Beyond the physical limitations, the interaction with your staff demonstrated a severe lack of basic customer service and consideration for families. To immediately tell a patron to leave a sleeping infant's transport device outside is not only unwelcoming, but it is also completely unreasonable and dismissive of the practical needs of parents. This is simply not family-friendly. For a restaurant that provides accessible parking, to then refuse entry to a common item like a stroller, which occupies less space than many ADA-compliant wheelchairs, sends a very clear and unwelcoming message to families and potentially to those who rely on legitimate mobility aids. This policy needs to be reviewed immediately to ensure your space meets all federal and state accessibility standards, and that your staff understands inclusive customer service. We were unable to dine here due to this unreasonable policy and lack of accommodation.

We visit this restaurant often and bring guests who have not experienced their cuisine before. No one has ever been disappointed! Absolutely love their Creme Brulee.

I failed to get any good pictures, before we scarfed everything down. We came for brunch and will most certainly come back. Bloody Mary was fantastic, nice beer selection. Our server was very friendly and helpful with recommendations. The French dip was fantastic. I could eat it 3 days a week and be happy. Also tried the fried chicken sandwich. Also very good, be forewarned you need to like pimento cheese, but im sure You could sub something. Ambiance is cool too. Historic house with high ceilings and a very good looking bar that I'll visit again soon.

My date and I spotted this restaurant at the same time and made a beeline across the tracks for Sunday brunch. The ambiance is warm, relaxed, and local- absolutely charming old house. The menu offered an impossible list of competing choices. Bacon jam. Grits. Omelettes. Eggs Benedict with BBQ sauce Hollandaise. Burgers. Collard green egg rolls. Even "eenie meenie minie moe" didn't help. I ended up going for the biscuits and gravy (when in the South...). He got the Benedict with pork belly. I got (two) grapefruit mimosa(s). He got (two) spicy Bloody Mary(s) (alas, no bacon accompanied his drink). We split the collard green egg rolls. Neither of us could finish our meals. Our server was perfectly attentive and responsive. He even answered our question about the painting over our heads. I'm going to have to visit Woodstock again just so I can explore more of this menu! (The date was also fantastic.)

The food was great and the service is even better. Molly was very attentive and checked on us just enough to make the experience great. It's a nice spot for a casual lunch or drinks with the girls. Everyone was great and we were happy with the service and food.

Great spot, especially for those colder days. The service was very pleasant and the ambience was very cozy. I greatly enjoyed the food and the portions. I was personally a big fan of the butternut squash, soup and the risotto. The cucumber kimchi is also a nice side add. Looking forward to coming back whenever I'm on that side of town.

I had been here years ago and it was just ok, was hoping to be wowed this time, especially as the reviews have remained consistently good over the years. First, the interior is tired. It needs a deep clean, a fresh coat of paint, and a refresh. It looks dated and just tired. Light fixtures caked in dust, really beat up walls. Doesn't scream "high end" like the price point would require. The cocktails I remembered as being a bit meh from my last visit but tried again this time. They were fine, but not great and I'd probably just skip ordering a drink next time. Tried the King and a seasonal old fashioned. They need to get large ice cubes if they're going to have a seasonal old fashioned menu. Especially a restaurant at this price point. The salmon was really good. Great, even. The "cheesecake" isn't a cheesecake...it's like a blondie in texture and size. Overall it just wouldn't be my first choice in the area. Y'all grab a weekend with a deep cleaning company and buy a new ice tray and let's take it to the next level?

Love Century house in downtown Woodstock, just wish it wasn't so pricy! Fish & Chips was $28 ‍

Came here for dinner and it was delicious. Get the cheeseball appetizer, it was amazing. My friend got the brisket sand which and ate every last bit. Another got the brisket ragu and it was finger licking good. Every cocktail we got was on point and every entrée was perfect.

Great spot for dinner. We came here with friends and loved it. We tried their cocktails and never had one we didn't like. Every meal we had was also amazing. We tried: brisket sandwhich brisket ragu steak wrap

Outstanding! Great location, building & decor. Very friendly and professional staff. I noticed the owner coming out of the kitchen speaking to the staff. He knows exactly what he wants and doing it very well. Sat at the bar and order the mussels with a kimchi & cucumber salad and a Scofflaw. The mussels were perfect. Very generous portion. Sophisticated sauce with a bit of crumbled sausage and incredible bread with a nice char for dipping. Everything complemented each other beautifully. The bartender told me she was a huge fan of the kimchi & cucumber salad and I am as well. Very impressive. For my taste, I'd cut the sweetness and hair and turn the spice up a tiny bit. For the average person eating it, I think it's dead on the money. Definitely the best lunch in years. I'm very excited to come back and try more with friends and family. Probably my best food experience being back in Atlanta 3 months in.

Century House Tavern was once a star among other great local restaurants. However, multiple visits between 2022 and now indicate that this place is no longer the jewel that Scoop OTP reviews from 2017 claim that it was. In the wake of Chef Daniel Porubiansky's departure, this once great eatery has struggled to meet expectations. Upon arrival, service at the bar is satisfactory but somewhat of an inconvenience to the bartenders. The menu looks interesting, but food-ticket times are terribly long forcing you to order additional drinks from a bar that didn't really want to make them. The food, once delivered is expensive and not special. And if you dare point out that what you received isn't what you ordered, the owner will peek around the corner of the kitchen and yell at the waitress while glaring at you. There is a real opportunity in downtown Woodstock to create unique menus and offer generous nod caring service in this very competitive market. This establishment now fails consistently and no one should go to Century House anymore.

I have had several different dishes here and they were all so tasty. The service is really fast and attentive. It is so cute inside and the perfect date night!

Could have been 4 stars but a couple of things were amiss. We were lucky enough to have nice weather and get seated on the side porch. It was early so there was no wait. First things first, I was craving a beer, but...nope, not a $9 IPA. I'd just had one of those same IPAs at another restaurant about 2 weeks ago and it was $5. $5 was the best I've seen and $9 was the steepest I've seen. The rest of the menu was OK and instead of a $9 IPA I chose a $9 bourbon, however, when the bill for our entire meal came well over $100 for everything) it was actually an $11 bourbon. I was paying in cash and told the waiter about the cost difference. He neither told us they'd do anything about it nor did he bring me any change. Saving grace was our food was good and the food price was as expected, but I'm no fan of the surprises.

Awesome waitress in Molly. Great cocktails, beer and risotto along with my shrimp 'n grits. Cocktail: required a second dose of the spicy honey old fashioned Father got the root risotto and I took two bites of it after giving him one of my giant shrimps. Excellent experience all around

We hadn't been to Woodstock, GA for year. We stumbled on Century House and it was a great find. Ethan our bartender helped maneuver the menu. We ended up with mussels for an appetizer and the Chatel Farms Short Rib Ragu which was fantastic.

This place was beyond amazing!! The atmosphere was cozy, inviting and relaxing all together! The service was excellent! The food was beyond delish!!! 10/10 definitely recommend! I'm from Texas and this spot was memorable!

Excellent food with great service. They had an issue with one cooler that limited the beer choices but that didn't really affect us. Pimento fritters and pork belly were both delicious and the French dip sandwich was very good.

Have been here a few times and the food and service is always great. Cute little spot in downtown Woodstock. Just went recently for brunch and it was delicious.

Father's Day - waited for 30 mins for brunch. No service No drinks A server walked by us 4x..took order of table next to us Told the front 2 x we were waiting. Not crowded No one came by Not even a manager Told the bartender no o e came by to help us..and she literally said "so sorry have a nice day" We may not have been in the servers section but he should have acknowledged we were there for the real server Skip this place . Service going down Shame, we are / were Regulars here too

Every time I go to Century House, their food is completely on point, portions are large and plentiful, staff is very accommodating ! Definitely a go to

Hi, this isn't really a review but more of a help message. I've been trying to reach someone for days to set up a larger party reservation and I sent an email as well. The phone just rings and then goes to voice mail that isn't set up and the email didn't get a response. Please advise. Thank you.

Century House is a new fav of mine in Woodstock, GA! Stopped in while staying nearby for work. The downtown restaurant district is awesome...i just sat at the bar, (which I normally do when I'm by myself) and Jason the bartender was on point. The atmosphere is a simple country style house. It's clean and well maintained. The food was fantastic. I hade a Dirty Martini, mussels, and pea and mushroom risotto.

First visit, but definitely not the last. We both ordered the French Dip, my wife got fries and salad and I got salad and substituted the Brussels sprouts, they were the best I'd ever had. So don't hesitate to try this jewel. The ambiance was great, we loved the neighborhood feel of the downtown area.

Three years ago on yelp I gave you a five star rating. I am sad that the food has deteriorated so much. I often bring friends and relatives here and lately been disappointed with the food and often the service. While yesterday's service with Molly was good, the food was not. I hesitated for months to review Century House again even though the decline was noticeable. The hamburger we ordered that was supposed to be medium was raw. Only ate less than 1/4 that was on the outside edge that was cooked enough. The bottom bun was so soggy with blood you couldn't pick it up. The short rib sandwich too was so soggy it couldn't be picked up. BUT it was the lack of taste that made most of this sandwich stay there when we left. It wasn't good!! The only good things were the service and the potato curly fries. Not sure if Tuesday gets the second string chef or just having a bad day. I hate going out and not enjoying the food. It has been a long time since I last enjoyed eating at the century house. Enough is enough.

I do highly recommend Century House- our waitress Kelly was awesome, attentive, informative, and perfect. She settle our table in with many of your seasonal cocktails. Each with a burst of elegance and flavor. Bravo for those drinks we loved them all. We made a big decision to order the chef cheese and meat platter. Highly recommend. The entrees came out fast and huge portions. We had the grilled pork chop with breaded sprouts, seared ahi tuna, country fried chicken, the Ruben, shrimp & grits, the blt, and a perfectly cooked steaks with ginger potatoes and string beans. Everything was delicious and in huge portions. This was a lovely way to spend our 10 year anniversary (2 couples) in the booth. We truly loved the cocktails and food. Our waitress was the icing on the cake for us all. Thank you,

The owner, Jon, delivered the meals to our table. Upon me asking for salt and pepper, which was not on the table, Jon snapped at me saying "Why don't you at least taste it before asking". I explained I liked pepper on my fries and there was no sign of pepper on them. He brought the salt and pepper shakers to my table and slapped them down in front of me and abruptly left. There was no excuse to be so RUDE. I and my friends were so shocked. None of the tables had salt and pepper shakers on them. The food was delicious, and yes the fries also needed salt too, and the waitress offered superb service and kindness. However; it is difficult to understand why a restaurant owner would treat his patrons in such an obnoxious manner.

Everything was delicious and fresh! Service was excellent. Loved the feeling of the old house with modern touches.

The food there is amazing always good always amazing service!!!!!! The best food I love living in Woodstock good stuff

Everything is always fresh and delicious. We come here often for the food, service, atmosphere, and amazing musical talent.

Simply great! From the service to the food, we so enjoyed our lunch at Century House. Ephrem, our waiter, was very nice and professional. Worth the drive! Very nice menu. The restaurant is right in the heart of downtown Woodstock. Outdoor seating available. You have to try the fried green tomatoes! Wow!!

Crème Bulet is a 5 out of 5 dish. The charcuterie board has been hit and miss. The last thing we had was a meat that I truly didn't like. It disgusted the whole table with how gamey it tasted. It wasn't the server's fault, we were warned, but still, just wasn't expecting it to be that bad. I forgot the mention that Century House offered other meats and cheeses at no extra cost to make up for this, which my whole table really appreciated. A+ customer service for that! I had the pork tenderloin dish and it was great! The server and the people there were amazing. Love the inviting feeling of Century House and the ambience has always been nice. Overall I felt it was a little pricey for the quality, but I never leave disappointed.

Quaint old house in downtown area with elevated American food and great service. Server suggested the burger and I love that all of the sandwiches came with greens and excellent fries! The burger was excellent and cooked to my preference. I also enjoyed a Bloody Mary that did not taste straight out of a bottle, but rather made with care at the bar! The prices were great for the amount and quality of food we got.

What fun! We sat at the bar and the bartenders were just great. The food was just as good. Parking can be a little intimidating on busy days. Valet near the street entrance is easy. Definitely will be back.

LOVE THIS PLACE!! Brunch and dinner are never disappointing. Service is fantastic!! I've been coming here since 2018 and I hope they continue to thrive in Downtown Woodstock!!

Stopped in for dinner with friends here after hearing how good it was, certainly held up to expectations! Super friendly service, clean, and food was excellent, especially the vegetables that accompanied the protein. Great atmosphere, and prices are fair! Thank you! Tip - parking, take the first one you can find and walk!!

Absolutely great food, great service, great desserts...I mean one of the best places to go in Woodstock!!! We had multiple dishes, soup and dessert...my only regret was not eating slower so my experience would've lasted longer!!!

This place is AMAZING! Came to town for baseball and had Sunday brunch with my 3 girlfriends. We loved everything! Bella was so great and super nice.

Hands down our favorite restaurant ever! The food is delish and changes seasonally. The chef always comes up with interesting twists on traditional dishes. They have a fantastic Sun brunch that is not to be missed!

Great ambiance and fun live music. Food is on par with McDonald's and the charcuterie is an insult to charcuterie. The prosciutto is 1/4" thick and not edible. You have to never have had good food to think this is passable as edible.

The food is always excellent. Nice ambiance and well worth the wait if there is one. The seating is a little cramped but the food is worth it.

We dine here probably 3 times a month. Food is great, waitstaff very attentive, and great location. We typically dine outside (although the bar is good too) on the patio or in the garden area. Last time out they had live music, which was high quality entertainment.

On my first trip to downtown Woodstock, I landed at Century House for lunch. It was a rare day in metro-Atlanta - sunny and warm with zero humidity - so the outdoor patio was full. Instead of waiting for an opening, we tucked into a table inside. I'm glad we had a reservation (Friday for lunch!) because this place was bustling! I ordered the beet salad (hold the goat cheese mousse) with grilled chicken. Delicious! My boyfriend selected the chicken salad sandwich - it was big and tasty! His came with the best french fries ever in our humble estimation! They were perfectly crispy and we left none behind. I loved this place so much I want to bring my parents here next! Side note: I love iced tea and Century House has a great brew, too! Enjoy! Tip: parking can be a little tricky. Century House's lot is pretty small. There's plenty of street parking, but you may have to hunt for a spot during peak times. I suggest allowing for a little extra time if you're trying to arrive on time for your reservation.

We decided to try Century House for its charming exterior! Little did we know what the interior was going to bring. The food was phenomenal! I has the shrimp po boy and it has the perfect spice to make it the best one Ive ever eaten. My friend had the chicken salad sandwich. A great blend of cranberry with chicken. Delicious! Both meals had salad and excellent French fries! The service was amazing. Our handsome waiter made sure our every need was met. And very personable and respectful at the same time! Very well worth the drive !!! We will be back.

We had a great early dinner. Everything was excellent starting with the amazing appetizer of Tuna rice cakes, outstanding! We split beet salad which had great flavor and finished off with pork chop and shrimp and grits. The service was excellent and the ambience is typical small town feel Woodstock.

I wouldn't come here again. We ordered a salad and it came out a different one than what we ordered. We specifically asked for certain things to not be on the burger and they were. Everything was a waste of $$. Total we spent $70 but won't return for any reason. Staff isn't very nice either.

Note: did not try out their libations. Food: Nothing bad, just nothing was strong or memorable. Service: poor service thanks to bartender also being server. Was sat in dining area and not near the bar--Maybe not the best hostess decision.

Always great food and great staff, great bar too! I love how it's an old home renovated into a modern eatery. The seating outside is a plus as well with weekend entertainment.

I would consider this the best restaurant in downtown Woodstock. The food and service is excellent. I would recommend you call ahead for a reservation as the weekends get quite busy. The ambiance is a step up from casual but not stuffy by any means whatsoever.

It was a Sunday so it was crowded. The drinks and food were uniquely delicious. I was pleased with it. The restaurant is an old home so it's not well laid out so if you need a lot of room you may want to consider this as a choice or go when it's warm as I believe they have outside seating. It's a quaint and cute.

Went to the Century house on a busy night and sat at the bar. Great service. I had the salmon and it was truly spectacular. I highly recommended if you are a salmon lover. This is also in one of those quaint homes located on Main Street in downtown Woodstock. I love the ambience. How they make a restaurant work out of an old 1800s house is beyond me but it works. The bar is literally wrapped around a brick chimney. They also have outside seating and this night there was a band playing. I'll definitely be back.
