Woodshed Smokehouse offers a vibrant riverside hangout with an expansive patio, where you can indulge in Chef Tim Love's inventive barbecue and global dishes.
"Woodshed Smokehouse is a Fort Worth staple led by renowned chef Tim Love. It’s known for its extensive barbecue-centric menu and exceptional draft beers and cocktails that can all be enjoyed on its patio alongside the Trinity River. Since its opening in 2012, it has remained a favorite for locals, TCU students, and Fort Worth visitors looking for a place to enjoy a cold drink. During the fall, winter, and spring, expect live music from local bands, the fire pits to be lit, and a buzzy crowd enjoying the patio weather while football plays on the TV in the background." - Michael Ellington
"Woodshed’s expansive and cozy outdoor patio near University West includes both a xeriscaped garden and patio deck, and it’s perfect for small groups. It’s impressive but welcoming, even to your four-legged friends, where you can keep Fido occupied with a “Rawhide Bone Dipped in Pitmaster Fat” while you and your friends share a cocktail pitcher - we’re partial to the Piggy Punch, a sweet and tart spin on the Paloma. In case you forgot you were in Texas, everything here is cooked with fire and smoke, including things like pork rib-meat tamales, large-format “Dining With Friends” dishes like the Beef Shin, or their sausage of the day, which can be anything from rattlesnake to rabbit." - emily smith
"Over in Fort Worth, the Woodshed Smokehouse is cooking up some delicious barbecue. The kid (and dog) friendly patio is a great spot for families. With a menu of sides, snacks, and simple plates, there are options to tempt the kiddos, while the adventurous barbecue menu will keep adults coming back. And yes, they serve booze." - Courtney E.

"Believe it or not, this Fort Worth smokehouse has one of the most tasty ramen choices in DFW since celebrated Chef Tim Love regularly dips his toes into a variety of international cuisines. At Smokehouse, he’s recently unveiled his take on congee, an Asian rice porridge, and of course, his delicious ramen with pulled pork, carrots, bell peppers, chiles, and a poached quail egg has a loyal following." - Alaena Hostetter
