Visiting from Vancouver, BC with my partner, and we really appreciated our experience at Woods. We were walking around the central business district on a nice, but cold, day, and came across this spot to keep warm. My coffee was great, the selection of fare even greater, and warm hospitality by the baristas. Cool vibe for studying or lounging, and lovely to visit when it's cold outside. Many thanks folks!

We loved this cozy little spot! I ordered the chai tea and the breakfast croissant, my friend got the bagel bites. We sat in big comfy chairs and everything we ate was delicious and warm and cheesy! The chai was spicy and yummy as well, and the service was great. We will definitely come back to this location!

If you struggle with social anxiety or are an author, this is probably not the coffee shop for you. I adore Woods Coffee, always have, but some locations are better than others.
I've been trying to work at cafés since my home life has become a bit distracting (See: Procrastination). This was my second place to try, since my first option was pretty full.
In the first *ten* minutes, I was pestered by a barista on if I was planning on ordering something, because I would have to if I wanted to stay. This is just incredibly rude, and for someone with a bit of social nerves, I felt like leaving immediately. I understand Railroad is addled by homeless and some folks will come in without ordering to just siphon the Wi-Fi. But, I'd like to believe most of us have manners and common sense. I needed time to set up my Bluetooth and connection, because technology likes to give me a hard time, and I wasn't going to order if I had to end up leaving. I wasn't even using the Wi-Fi, either... All I wanted was a nice spot to sit down and not be bothered.
Aside from that, the staff are clearly young and a bit energetic. The ambience was crowded, rambunctious, and not supportive for focusing. I'm sure it would be great if you were designing or doing tedious, mindless work, but when it comes to creative literature, boy, was it a struggle.
Overall, not a big deal. I'm certainly not opposed to visiting again. Wood's Coffee has the best tasting beans in the area, after all. But I figured this was worth mentioning in a review for those in my field of work, or for those who have certain conditions. ♥

We came in at 430 and so the lady asks us if we realize there closing later on at 5 ...I thought hmm ok let it go .... Then she felt obligated to complain about my beautiful dog who's super well behaved ....this threw me ...she asked me also to not leave the dog unnatended ... Which we never do because he's been stolen before ...man it's like she wanted to ask us to leave so bad it just never came out of her mouth
