"A Piedmont Park pillar since the ’70s, Woody’s is the sizzling sound of distraction you need on a day you’re ignoring all your tasks and your fitness apps. One of the city’s best cheesesteaks, the Woody’s Steak consists of a generous portion of grilled meat, onions, and white American cheese on a toasted bun. Don’t sleep on the gooey chicken steak, either. The Orange Freeze is an unforgettable flavor rush masquerading as a shake, but drink the whole thing to prepare yourself for the half-mile trek back to wherever you parked your car." - juli horsford, demarco williams, nina reeder, jacinta howard
"Woody’s has been a staple in Midtown since 1975. The tiny cheesesteak shack sits catty-corner from Piedmont Park and serves up some of the best Philly jawns in Atlanta. Luckily for night owls, Woody’s is open until 4am on Fridays and Saturdays. Their hot and sloppy cheesesteaks stuffed with peppers, onions, and a huge portion of meat are the perfect solution for late-night hunger, especially when you need to sober up or eat enough to sleep in past breakfast. If you’re not into cheesesteaks, they also have cold subs and hot dogs (that are surprisingly giant), and be sure to grab a milkshake or an Orange Freeze, too." - juli horsford, nina reeder
"Open ‘til 4am, Woody’s is a late-night hero that’s saved many relationships in risk of hangry ruin. This cheesesteak shack has been part of the Midtown scene since 1975. They’ve recently expanded with two new locations in Buckhead and EAV, but they're reliable no matter where you are. If you've never had Woody's, start your journey with a classic cheesesteak since they're some of the best in the city. Then explore other favorites like Woody's giant hot dogs or loaded cold subs." - juli horsford, nina reeder
"Woody’s has been a staple in Midtown since 1975. The tiny white building sits catty-corner from Piedmont Park and serves up top-tier Philly steak subs. We know it’s hard to justify going to Woody’s and not getting a cheesesteak, but you’d miss out if you didn’t order a giant hot dog, too. Of the four options (all are tasty), we like the Phat Dog, a traditional grilled sausage with ketchup, mustard, relish, and a slew of onions. And since they're open super late on weekends, this meaty handheld is a bit of a savior when you need a quick, filling meal on the move." - juli horsford, demarco williams
"The best Philly cheesesteaks in Atlanta have come to EAV. With a shorter menu than the original Midtown location, the Woody’s stall at the Southern Feed Store offers their legendary Woody’s steak sandwich and other varieties stuffed with peppers, onions, and a generous portion of meat. The cold deli hoagies would make a Philadelphian proud, too. Similar to the Midtown shack, Woody’s is open late on the weekends, so after dancing your heart out at The Basement, you can refuel with gooey, sloppy cheesesteaks and fries." - juli horsford
