We came here for lunch and could see they were pretty busy. We were a party of 6. Service wasn't that great but they genuinely attempted to do their best. Food was not very good; Especially, for the price. We all tried different things, and everyone in the party had the same consensus. read more

I have never been to Woodland. Came here for free flower picking and walked around downtown after. Saw the Savory Cafe and decided to give them a try. They were fairly busy but we were greeted immediately upon entry. Everyone working was friendly and helpful. They had a Nice menu selection and made substitutions without question. We received our food within a reasonable time and it was flavorful. Interior temperature was comfortable and it was very clean. We asked our female server about other activities in the area and she sent over her coworker who helped us search local Activities to do. I would definitely come Back. read more

We popped in for lunch because we were in the area and it wasn't very busy. I don't have anything bad to say about the place but I also don't have anything great to say. The service was pretty slow, but they were nice. The food was mediocre. I couldn't find much in the way of cheese in the omelet and the hollandaise on the Benedict seemed like it wasn't made fresh. Not sure I would recommend. read more

Well, I had a sense that I had been there before. And, in fact, I did and I left a review. And as it turns out, I ordered the very same thing. And you know what? I have the very same comments. Definitely not traditional huevos rancheros, but still quite good. I did order the bacon add-on, which, for some reason was integrated into the huevos rancheros in pieces, as opposed to being on the side. That may just have been my misunderstanding. Still good. Vibe is the same. Service is superb. Wow! Our waitress was absolutely lovely. On street parking, early in the morning. It's super easy. Downtown Woodland is a fun place to walk around. This is one of the few places that has a really solid full service breakfast in town. Next time I will be more creative and try something new! We will definitely return! read more

We very much enjoy this spot for breakfast. The service has been great, with polite and helpful staff. Often ordering food to go when my wife and I had a newborn, we have been happy with the quality of food even with some travel. Also enjoyed meals in the restaurant - ambience is intimate and the spot is conveniently located on Main Street. Recommend. read more

A bit on the pricier side, but definitely worth it. The portions are generous, and the food is consistently good. This has become one of my go-to breakfast and brunch spots, and I'll definitely be back. read more

Delicious house fresh brewed Monster Italian coffee with free refills. The Savory breakfast is served with Pasture 42 Ranch eggs with yolks that are bright orange which indicates free range chickens. The house made chorizo was crispy and crumbly, not sure I like the way it's served on my plate. I ordered the English muffin that comes with the Manas Ranch Jam. The jam flavor today was strawberry but they also sell jars of the peach & cinnamon, mango apple, and just peach. Delilah was an excellent server. Very friendly and efficient. She refilled my coffee and brought a bowl of water for my dog. This cafe was recommended to me by a local as a favorite place for breakfast and lunch. Definitely recommended and will return for their soup that is leek and potato today. read more

Walked in and the place has a nice rustic feel to it with an open room feel. I was sat a very long table where another group was at the other end. And quickly brought a water to me without asking, I liked that. Service was good but for only being maybe 10 people eating they didn't attend to me much but I was also on my laptop working so that may be the reason. The eggs Benedict showed up and were very good. I don't know if it was the spinach they used or the hollandaise sauce but it was good. I subbed for fruit instead of potatoes and I loved that it had pomegranate in the mix, but needed to ask for a napkin to spit my seeds into. Which is when I felt it took a bit for them to pass by for me to ask for a paper napkin. They left a jar so I can freely refill my tea and I really liked that. read more

Savory Cafe - Eggs Benedict with fruit - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Woodland, California

I've never been so disappointed in a meal/ breakfast as I was today at Savory Cafe. I took my son and his family to breakfast today. My over easy eggs were of the lowest possible quality that you could imagine. The color of the yolks were more white than yellow and neither of them had a runniest to them, cooked way too much for over easy. The potato were burnt to the max, and get this for this price you now get one piece of toast. My Grandson ordered a kids hamburger, the hamburger itself was kids size and the bun was for a regular size hamburger, so there was an inch of bun all the way around it with no meat. My Granddaughter wouldn't even finish her waffles because she said they had no taste. Come on, who can you mess up waffles. All of this for $140.00. I've been coming to this place for years, and it has really gone downhill. This was my last time ever eating at this place... read more

Food and service was great! Farmers Market omelet-yum!! Located in old town Woodland. It has a very charming atmosphere with old brick walls. read more

The smoked salmon had a deep red color which tinted the egg muffin. Aside from the appearance, it tasted very salty by itself. The benedict was decent overall but the saltiness was too overwhelming and it did not strike a good balance with the meal. The panini was average and didn't have much taste to it. It could have been improved with something like a pesto. Unfortunately, the only thing I was impressed by was the coffee and fruits. read more

We went yesterday the service was good. The only reason I'm giving it a 4 is because the service is inconsistent over the several times I have been there. The food was awesome yesterday! My husband had the chicken fried steak and it tasted great! I had the chicken and waffles and it was amazing! The apple added a crunch and the chipotle sauce made it so savory. The chicken was cooked perfect! It's a chill laidback ambiance. We will be pack. read more

Have been coming here for years- it has good food and it's worth it even though it's on the pricey side. We came for Mother's Day brunch and it was chaotic and the service was poor, so we left, thinking it was a one off due to how busy it was. We came in today for breakfast and were immediately seated. Long story short, I had to go up to get my own coffee refill, and waited an hour and 10 minutes before someone came to tell me it would be "a little longer" for our food. Other tables waited long as well. We left without eating and will not be back. read more

I just finished a very nice brunch. The eggs Benedict (eggs Benny here) and potatoes were very good. Once seated, the service was also very good. Our server was Dalila. She was friendly and attentive. The restaurant was busy but the ambiance was good. This is a little more upscale than the other restaurants that serve breakfast in Woodland. (Morgan's on Main now serving Saturday brunch is the exception.) Recommended! read more

The food was amazing. Everything my table got everyone loved. Also the building the decor everything was incredible absolutely loved this place. Just visiting as we drove through town and found online was happy we did. Highly recommend read more

We wanted to like this place. It was cute and the service started off fine. But the food was just bad. The bacon and sausage were very poor quality and the sauce on my dish was awful and it actually smelled. It was so disappointing to pay for a somewhat pricey breakfast we barely ate.. and we are not picky eaters! It was a waste of time and money. read more

Do not go on a HOT DAY (90+), they had little to no air flow or AC so it got stuff realllly fast. We ate quickly just to escape the heat. Otherwise food was good and service was nice but a little slow (was a Sunday morning), my friend liked the chilaquiles and I got the waffle, waffle not super worth it for the money read more

My family and I went for brunch on Sunday. The food was tasty.I had the pancakes with fruit, eggs, and bacon. I will definitely return.

Took mom for Mother's Day breakfast a day early. Despite them being busy we were seated quickly and service was prompt, friendly and efficient. We both enjoyed what we had and recommend the eggs Benny for sure. read more

I just ordered the worst Avocado Toast with eggs. I have been coming to Savory for a long time, so this is so disappointing to have to write this. 1) the eggs were supposed to be soft scrambled eggs. They were fried then chopped up... disgusting! 2) then there was no real avocado on the non toasted bread. There was no more than a tablespoon of some type of avocado mash in possibly a mayonnaise sauce. Uck!!! 3) it cost me $21 !!! $15 for the toast and $6 for the eggs 4) I would like to acknowledge Jessica our waitress for trying to salvage the disaster. She was awesome! The wait staff at Savory have always been the best. It will be awhile before we return. read more

The only reason why I gave this business 4 stars instead of 5 is because I have had weird and unfavorable experiences in the past. Additionally, they make you stand at the front and wait for them to seat you even when their are only 4 tables seated with more than 20 open and empty tables. I understand there were two service staff but for one person to have to wait 3-5 minutes standing at the front while the business is clearly not busy is not ideal in my opinion. Having said that, the biscuits and gravy is impressive. The gravy is clearly higher quality than most, biscuits were warm and fluffy. The eggs weren't over cooked and the entire dish tasted like it was made from scratch which is much appreciated. Best biscuits and gravy in Woodland, CA so far. read more

I had the country fried steak and it was delicious!!! Perfect crunch!!! My waitress was super nice. I'm surprised I haven't been here before having lived in Woodland for 4 years. I'm definitely coming back. read more

The menu format seems to have changed. I have been here several times You could get French toast, pancakes, or a waffle and add bacon or another side. now they are "bundled". If you order pancakes or French toast it comes with bacon and 2 eggs, I didn't want the 2 eggs but you still have to pay for them. They didn't remove them from the bill. So 30 dollars for French toast and coffee. read more

Savory Cafe in Woodland CA is a fun little breakfast spot. While they don't have a full bar, they are able to offer a limited menu of Wines and Prosecco. Once you school the kitchen on how to execute your perfect poached eggs they are fairly consistent. My husband and I had breakfast there about 4 times on this business trip to UC Davis. Our servers Mila and Jessica were very accommodating and pleasant. read more

I ordered the farmers omelet and chicken fried steak for pick up. Best omelet I've had in my entire life.

The first time I went I had the chicken and waffles those were really good. Went again and had the French toast and herb potatoes with bacon. Wasn't a fan of the bacon at all, wasn't good couldn't even explain exactly why is wasn't good but you can look at the picture and I think it would explain for its self. Haha The French toast was pretty good, no complaints there, and oh the herb potatoes was probably the best thing I eaten there the perfect amount of crisp and season and it was just amazing I love their potatoes read more

Service is always great here ! But it's crazy how hot it is inside ! Feels better to be outside than inside at least outside has a breeze. Poor workers working in a 90 degrees building . Can't imagine how hot the chefs feel in the back ! Hopefully they will fix their ac ASAP! read more

I come here every time I'm in town - the food is so fresh and tasty! One of my favorite breakfast spots.

My family and I were craving a nice breakfast/brunch spot and decided to try out a Woodland favorite, Savory Cafe. Located in the heart of downtown Woodland, the restaurant has a nice exterior that is outshined by the impressive farmhouse themed interior. Upon walking in we were warmly greeted by a waitress and they prepared a table for us quickly. Upon ordering our food the waitress informed us there was only one chef in the kitchen and they were finishing up the dishes for a private party so our meal would take a bit longer. Really appreciated the transparency and they didn't even take long. We ordered the Chicken Fried Steak, the Breakfast Sandwich, and the Eggs Benedict. All dishes were delicious. The potatoes were a highlight, crispy outside, soft inside, and amazing flavor. Only complaint is that the Chicken Fried Steak itself was rather small, and felt like it wasn't the star of its own plate. Overall Savory Cafe provided a delicious breakfast experience that deserves a spot as one of Woodland's best. read more

This was my first time at Savory. My husband had been here before and enjoyed the food. We brought some visiting family for breakfast and we were seated quickly. Our waitress Elizabeth was fabulous! She had a great sense of humor and she took great care of us. There were 5 of us. A couple of dishes took a little longer but the food was good and there was plenty. There were some new staff being trained but everyone was working together to take care of us. There were a couple of other items on the menu I would like to try next time we are here. Stop in for a good old fashioned breakfast. read more

Been 3 times and every time I been haven't been amazed. First time I went was the best, chicken and waffles. Went and 2nd time and got French toast and bacon and potatoes, bacon was bland. Herb potatoes was the best thing on my plate.... I went again and got chicken and waffles earlier today and it was absolutely just not good at all. Place is very inconsistent, order a hot chocolate and it's made differently every time. I know different cooks make things different ways but it's no way food should have that big of a difference in taste and texture.... I more than likely will not be coming back to this place, it is a good place to chill in a nice spot in downtown. Sucks this is the only breakfast spot in woodland that isn't Mexican food. I'll cook at home before I come back. read more

My husband and I have eaten at Savory several times since March of 2024. We felt they started out pretty strong but their food has been on the decline. The first few time i has the avocado toast, the toeast was a thick piece of what seemed to be freshly baked with a generous amout of smashed avocado. The last half dozen i went this dish has turned into a thin layer of guacamole (onions, cilantro and bell pepper were very noticeable) on pita bread or very thin toast. As what was being served kept disappointing me, I tried something different. I orderend the burger which my husband has had in the past and i felt confident about selecting for my meal. The burger which i requested to be cooked medium was cooked so well done that it was dry. There was mayonnaise thickly slathered on both sides of the bun and the most disappointing part...fresh onion replaced the balsamic grilled onion. Wait staff is also very pushy about turning their tables as quickly as possible. read more

We found this place driving through woodland. It took a bit for us the get acknowledge at the hostess booth. Once we were seated, our waitress was very attentive. The waffles came out soft, not crunchy at all. I also asked for strawberries but apples were provided instead. I didn't make a stink about it since we wanted to be in and out. read more
