History

Established in 1993.

Woody’s is located in the historic 1305 Washington Ave building. It was once the Wells-​Fargo Stable at the turn of the 20th century, and has since been a bowling alley and The Golden Eagle Saloon. In 1993, Woody’s was created before opening several more locations around the state. Around the turn of the 21st century, Woody’s became independently owned and operated. In 2009, we became one of the first businesses in downtown Golden to install solar PV panels, offsetting 27,889 lbs of CO2 each year.

Great place to stop and grab some lunch and beer after the Coors tour. Had 30 min to get lunch before catching our flight and sat at the bar for a quick pizza buffet. Very prompt service, polite staff, and great pizza with serious variety. Would recommend to any group.

We enjoy coming here for well priced, tasty pizza. The salad bar may be the best around. Usually great service. The wait can be long sometimes, but that just means everyone else knows it’s good!

I don’t know why this restaurant is rated so low. It has an excellent atmosphere with a mountain view of Denver lights. The food and service were high quality and it was a very enjoyable experience.

we were just roaming while in Golden and found this gem. Great service, delicious food and fun atmosphere! May be worth the drive back to Colorado!

Offering a discount to those who walked the Coors Brewery tour is a great selling point, but isn’t even on the list of why I love this place. After the tour, my friends and I drank up an appetite. We hit up a local dive before concretely deciding on the pizza place we had heard such good things about back in Denver. Besides having that local’s favorite look on the outside, the smell was incredible. The staff was super energetic and friendly. The vibe is a family friendly pizza place with alcohol and TVs. While we tried to decide on a pizza (newbie mistake) the server just said «I think you’ll want the salad bar» — Umm unlimited salad, soup, and pizza that you can request for $ 12!!! For sure!
I saw a crock of cheesy soup and just took a bowl, foregoing the vegetables. Later I learned it was beer cheese soup, and the two of us soon fell in love. The pizza was so hot, so fresh, so delicious, I wish I’d had 3 stomachs. My favorite pizzas turned out to be the thicker hand-​tossed meat topped pies, which is quite contrary to my style. For example, I’d considered ordering the California, but didn’t really enjoy it once I had it at the bar. Thankful for this $ 12 bar not only for the value but for the opportunity to satisfy everyone. If you find yourself out of the Coors Tour with food on the brain, do your group a favor and take your coupon ticket to Woody’s.

Woody’s has great pizza, and is almost worth waiting in line. Almost anything you get also earns you a trip to the salad bar. This is not as awesome as the pizza, and will remind you of a college cafeteria, or a Furr’s Cafeteria. It’s crowded and loud, but the pizza is quite good and the wait staff efficient, if not personable.
Would I return? Yes, although I may hold out for a booth.

I was introduced to the Colorado tradition of swirling honey on your pizza crust here at Woody’s! I feel like part of the tribe now! Delicious and I will try to get this to catch on in Indiana.
Loved this place! Stopped in for lunch and ordered the all you can eat salad bar and pizza. I really appreciate the wide variety of pizzas to choose from. I stalked the pizza bar for the ‘California Dream’ and ‘Margherita’. I wasn’t really feeling the meat this day. Loved the California with all of is delicious toppings — sundried tomatoes, garlic, artichoke, spinach, mozzarella and feta. I had two nice sized slices, a small cup of beer cheese soup (very yummy with nice chucks of potato) and a spinach salad with Italian dressing. All of this for $ 12. A steal.
Place was a steady flow of people in and out. Old timer’s at the bar were drinking beers while large families filled the tables. Very cozy spot and attentive staff even in peak lunch hours!

Still great. Packed all the time for a good reason. I had their chicken sandwich with pepper and cheese yesterday, huge, juicy, cooked and seasoned perfectly, mouth watering. We love their salad bar, worth going just for that. And a great little friendly bar area and nice staff.
These folks should franchise if it’s possible to replicate their magic.

All you can eat pizza and salad bar for lunch?! Trouble.
The pizza was great — Salad bar looked decent if you’re into that kinda thing. I’m into pizza & it was extremely hot and fresh! As soon as I learn self-​control I imagine I’ll come back.

In Golden two nights; ate at Woody’s two nights. Night 1: Hubby and I shared mushroom and chicken pizza. It was quite tasty. Night 2: We both got turkey burgers and paid $ 1 upcharge to avoid french fries with them. Hubby had the sweet potato fries, but they were lukewarm and extremely salty. I had one trip to salad bar, and it was very good. Loved the beets and lettuce, greens, and spinach. The turkey burger was excellent – great pickles!
Their happy hour is good – $ 1 off most drafts.
Staff friendly and helpful.

Love the vibe of this place. It’s casual and kick back which is nice. We stopped in to get some pizza slices to go. It was quick and easy. The pizza was tasty and hot.

After being denied by 2 restaurants in Morrison outside of Red Rocks, we were starving when we got back to Golden. Reviews told me that Woody’s was a favorite, but I was still blown away by how good and fresh the food was!
We got a drink each, and spit a BBQ pizza and a ceaser salad with fried chicken fingers on top. The pizza was super tasty, the dough /​crusty was so light it was like eating a fresh baked pretzel. The salad was fresh and the chicken tenders on top were so light and not greasy compared to others you usually eat. Beyond good!
Small outdoor patio as well. The one on the street allows dogs.

Woody’s is a favorite place for lunches at my office, so I gave it a shot. While I did not partake in the pizza buffet (for fear of the dreaded lunch coma), I went with the Woody’s Reuben, a generous mixture of corned beef and smoked turkey. While not spectacular, it was a solid ‘C+’ sandwich. The rest of our party did the pizza buffet, and it seemed to receive high marks; maybe next time!

This place Is worth the wait! Whiskey pizza is delicious. If you want something different get the bacon sticks for an appetizer. It’s honey brown sugar crispy bacon with habanero dipping sauce. Next time we’re in golden we will be back!

All-​you-​can-​eat pizza for $ 12? Yes, please!
My boyfriend is a Mines alum, so Woody’s was one of his college staples, and we have to go whenever we visit CO. He got me absolutely hooked on their white sauce and pineapple pizza. It sounded awful to me, but I ate the whole slice and my words. If you are looking for high-​quality, gourmet ingredients, then Woody’s is probably not for you, but if you want tasty, affordable pie, then hit this place up. They continuously make pizzas and serve it buffet-​style, so you can sample more than one type. I love the concept, and have been able to try a variety. Regardless of what type of pizza you get, be sure to try the crust with honey — it’s to die for!

Woody’s was soo good! I was in town for a wedding and just happened to come upon Woody’s for lunch. It was a Saturday afternoon and they were kind of busy, but everyone got seated quickly and with a warm and welcoming attitude.
I ordered a macaroni and cheese dish with chicken and spinach. It also came with the salad bar. My mouth is watering as I type this because everything was so delicious and fresh.
Service was friendly and prompt and the price was a tad high, but I think I got what I paid for so I was fine with it.
I don’t know when or if I’ll ever get back and that is a total shame.

Went here after touring the Coors Brewery, it’s only a couple of blocks away. Needed some food to counter the beer. Next little set up near the traffic intersection. It was a beautiful warm and sunny spring day, so we went out to the patio to dine. Got pizza slice and salad lunch special from the buffet. Needed something cold and was full of beer, so I got a hard cider. Very refreshing and tasty! Great place to people watch. Would come here again if I ever make it back to Golden Colorado, recommend!

I’m from Boston and I’m picky about my pizza. Good pizza is hard to come by and when I discovered this place it was true love! The pizza is so amazing (and I almost always order my pizza without cheese. Cheese free pizza making is an art.) And their salad bar is well stocked and always fresh. Service has been top notch the few times I have gone as well.
If I have one complaint about this place, it is ONLY the super long lines. I have never waited less than 45 minutes to be seated here. The good news is they do give you a pager so you can wander around in Golden while you wait. Exploring can be fun if you plan for it, but don’t expect a quick bite here.
