Oriole 9

Another weekend away, another outstanding breakfast spot! (They also serve lunch!) A quick trip to Woodstock, NY over Easter weekend brought us to Oriole 9. A varied menu with great options- I had the corned beef hash and it was piping hot and made from scratch! Two perfectly cooked poached eggs- and it was delicious! Cozy atmosphere that is welcoming. Fun art on the walls, right in the downtown area of Woodstock. I’d love to go back to try their speciality cocktails, and other menu favorites.

I visited on a Monday and it was busy! The food was tasty: I got the nicoise salad and the tuna was seared properly. It was filling and healthy after a morning of hiking. I also had the Bailey's cappuccino - also good. The servers are good but seem very busy. They overlooked bringing me water and instead brought water to two tables who arrived after me. It's definitely a more casual place. There was no check-in from servers during the meal (which is fine, just indicates the casual-ness and their busyness).

Food was excellent. Great BLT. Servers were very nice and quick. Only issue very noisy. Couldn't hear my wife across the table.

Amazing everything. This is the local place you must try. The food is superb. We hiked 140 some crazy steps to the falls and back and were STARVED. We shared, as much as I wanted my own. The grilled Rueben. It was nirvana x100. And three Rocketpop Hudson ciders. Ready for that hike again.

Bright and joyful ☀️ breakfast/brunch spot. They offer variety of food options: salads, sandwiches, eggs, tacos. They also serve different coffees (cappuccino etc). Although my latte was ok, it wasn’t of a great coffee shop quality. We were happy with our food choices however, as a person who likes flavorful food, i would add some spice/sauce to come with the home potato. I asked for a side sour cream and mixed in some hot sauce and created a baseline option that worked. The portions are of a good size and between the Nocoise salad and eggs benedict with home potatoes it was more than enough food for the two of us. The staff had a really great energy - positive, attentive, and kind, which always adds to the overall experience! *one suggestion for the owner/manager is to add granola/fruit/yogurt/nuts custom bowls to the great existing breakfast menu.

Walked in for brunch with a group of 8 people on a weekday morning, and there were a few groups in line. We were seated pretty quickly though. I had the corned beef hash, which was awesome. I love corned beef and this one had nice big chunks. Also had the bailey's cappuccino, which was also good.

We did some goat yoga nearby and decided to see what Woodstock had to offer. A local suggested Oriole 9 and we're so glad we visited. Although it appears busy, the service moves quick and we didn't have to wait at all for a table. The atmosphere is upbeat and exciting and the service was excellent. 100% will go back my next time in Woodstock!

Very good food and service. I was very happy with the reasonable prices as well. Shrimp and Grits were very good. The Rueban was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend eating here if you are in the area. Great vision as well with the vibe of the restaurant. Loved it!

Six years later and we're back in Woodstock! You know we had to come back to Oriole 9. This is the absolute best restaurant I've ever been to. The food is so fresh. So delicious. Today, I decided to get the lobster Benedict and it was out of this world. The freshest lobster meat and the hollandaise sauce was so creamy. We had guacamole to start with tortilla chips. Very good as well. The picture I took doesn't do it justice. Woodstock is a very cute town. We've had the chance to visit a few spots in town. Oriole 9 is a must. If you're in the area, you have to stop by!

We were wandering through Woodstock and needed a place to grab lunch. I happened to notice Oriole 9 and remembered hearing great things about it, so we decided to stop in there. The place was very crowded and resembled an upscale cafe with a small bar. The food was farm-to-table and reminded of something I might see in Los Angeles, as many of the menu items were healthy, hearty, and natural. I began with a Matcha Latte with almond milk, which was bold, earthy, and creamy. It was one of the better ones I had ever had. Similarly, I had an incredible Egg White Omelet with my additions of tomatoes, peppers, and mushrooms. It was super fresh, well-seasoned, and not at all greasy. It was served with a small salad of greens, carrots, and grape tomatoes. These tomatoes were a bit mushy, but I enjoyed the dressing on the salad. I also received Rye Toast, which seemed like it had come from a bakery, rather than a supermarket package. My companion had ordered a Pretzel Bun Burger with no cheese and a side of fries. However, since our server did not write down the order, we were a bit nervous. A few moments after, she had come back to the table asking if he wanted breakfast potatoes or fries, to which he repeated "fries". When the burger came, it looked amazing, but was also slathered with cheese, so he had to send it back. When the corrected version arrived, we were impressed with the thickness of the patty. He said the burger was excellent, and I loved the few fries I snagged. Aside from the ordering snafu, we had a great experience at Oriole 9! The menu was vast and offered something for everyone. I would definitely recommend giving it a visit.

RACIST TERRIBLE STAFF UNBELIEVABLE. I HATE YALL. Staff is always super rude and mean. I have seen them turn away service dogs! Where is the humanity!?!

Solid breakfast spot. Not too crowded when we came a little bit after 9am on Sunday morning, parking wasn't bad either since it was still pretty early. The food was decent, coffee not so great (I ordered a mocha) I was excited to try their bread pudding since I saw good reviews of it but sadly they didn't have it. The interior is spacious and welcoming, it's a nice breakfast spot and would return

Recommended by a friend who lives in town. Interesting menu, something for everyone. I had the Cajun Trout Tacos, very good. I must say, I was taken back at how dirty the entire place was...food under tables, spills. Just grimy. Reminded me of a college town late night Denny's. I could see how it could be a favorite, but I probably would not return.

Oriole 9 was a perfect breakfast spot to visit on our last morning visiting Woodstock. The ambiance is adorable, and the food is incredible for breakfast. We started with a cappuccino and freshly squeezed orange juice. The cappuccino was one of the best tasting I have ever had. No sugar needed. The orange juice was also delicious. For entrees I got the smoked salmon bagel and my husband got the huevos rancheros. The smoked salmon bagel was huge! It was also served with a side salad. It was so fresh and delicious. I could only eat half, so I took the other half home. My husband devoured the huevos rancheros. They were perfectly seasoned, moist and delicious. How could I forget? We got a side of bacon- wow! Incredible, perfectly crisped bacon. Absolutely to die for. Don't miss Oriole 9 for breakfast if you are in Woodstock. Get the bacon!

Decided to give the Oriole 9 a shot this past Sunday for Brunch. We live less than 15 miles away and our usual brunch place is currently closed down. We found d a parking spot a few blocks away on this busy autumn morning. Hostess told us our party of 2 had about a 20 minute wait so she took our number. We walked outside to people watch which is always fun in Woodstock. 20 minutes later, the phone rang and we walked in to be seated immediately. The dining room is a lively place and very comfy. Nice assortment of items on the menu. We both started with Bloody Mary's. Garnish well and super tasty, a nice treat before noon. Not super heavy on the vodka but still enjoyable. I got the egg Benny with lobster. It was served with deliciously seasoned small chunks of lobster, breakfast potatoes cooked perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was spot on. My wife had a Benny with a side of corned beef hash. Not a traditional hash but some tasty chicks of beef made it enjoyable. We also snuck in an appetizer (yes it was brunch but who's judging). Jalapeño cheese stuffed tater tots. So good and filling and definitely will be getting them again. Service was a bit slow after we got our meals but we were not in a rush. Cool vibe and delicious food will bring us back. A bit pricey for the area but it checked most of the boxes for a great morning adventure. Kid friendly . Parking can be tricky but a few public lots available if you don't mind walking a few blocks .

The ambiance is like a small town diner, and the staff was friendly (despite my misbehaving children). I had a breakfast quesadilla which was totally fine (I suggest adding a potato variant).

This is a great spot. It is quite popular so on the weekends you can expect to wait. The food is good, the menu has something for everything, and the service is friendly. I have only been here for breakfast, but it is my go to place when I am in Woodstock. The restaurant is clean and has a good vibe. It can feel a little chaotic when they are super busy as people who are waiting tend to jam up the entrance. The servers are pretty good about coming around to check on you and refill coffee, etc. You can feel a little rushed some weekends when there are a lot of people waiting. I usually get an egg dish, and it is always perfectly cooked to order. Check the specials also. They are very reliable. Overall, this is a great spot, and I would highly recommend it. I will definitely return...again.

Wife and I made our first trip down to Woodstock, beautiful area/village, and decided on breakfast at Oriole 9. A popular place but we were seated quickly as it got busier while we were there. Wife ordered an omelette and I got the shrimp n grits and we shared a pecan sticky bun, everything was excellent as was the service and ambiance, highly recommend.

Food-salad was almost rotten overall so much so that you could taste it if you had a decent palate. Greens were black. how could anyone in the food service field even let that go out? even if you did not know a thing about food appearance. I am quite sure people realize green vs black are polar opposites. Burrito tasted and appeared as if they just dumped a can of refried out like I would do in my home to make it. Service-the girl who was our waitress waited until we were almost done eating to come over to ask if everything was okay. It is crazy to think that the nice girl in blue shirt with blonde hair who was not out waitress came over frequently, brought the dressing that was forgotten, took out trays. She should have gotten what tip was left, not out "actual" waitress. Ambience-the overall place was pleasant and we did enjoy our seating and the atmosphere was pleasant as well. I would not recommend this eatery I am sorry to say

I'm a Woodstock local and can highly recommend Oriole 9 for lunch and brunch. The food is even better than the past few years, more variety too. Also the service is excellent!

A lotta burrata! That's the first thing that came to mind when making this review. I enjoyed my meal here, but one suggestion or thing AJ would have enjoyed was some citrus or grapes, something to balance out the heaviness of the goat cheese. The service was great - it was really busy but we were seated right away and felt well taken care of.

Lunch was a random stop in here and it was wonderful! My husband had a homemade Arnold Palmer and I had a sugar rimmed grapefruit and vodka drink. I could've had 6 or 7. Delicious! Best shrimp and grits I've ever had. Decor was trendy and cool and service was top notch. Highly recommend.

Wonderful place, located in the heart of Woodstock, amidst shops and eateries. The size of the restaurant is deceiving from the entrance, it appears small but is very spacious inside. The staff are all very nice, great menu, lots of choices, especially for vegetarians. I had the impossible burger and a Bloody Mary, friends has the burrata sandwich, pulled pork sandwich and heuveos rancharos, mimosa with pineapple juice, all excellent. The decor is warm and lots of art on the walls.

Caution! -Overcharged me for my food! - No coffee in latte! When brought to their attention, the older women said I was charged the "right price" despite the menu showing a different price- with attitude! No apologies. She said "I'll change it for you anyway" as if she was doing us a favor! My butterfly pea latte tasted like straight milk, no espresso at all. When asked, with attitude once more, same older woman said that one does not have ANY espresso in it! THEN WHY CALL IT LATTE? Just say iced milk! No apologies, just attitude.

We had an amazing brunch here and the wait time was spot on. It was worth waiting 20 minutes for a great brunch. My husband had a hot toddy and said it was one of the best he's had and I had a mocha coffee and it was great. We started with the bacon, cheddar and chive stuffed tater tots and they were amazing. They were very crispy on the outside and had a flavorful filling. I then got a spinach, mushroom and cheddar omelette and it was very good. My husband got the corned beef hash and loved it. I would definitely recommend.

Great Benedicts and quick service. Nice atmosphere. Really great mid-week place for brunch.

Been meaning to come here for years but somehow always missed it or they weren't open. This time I was like we are getting breakfast from here! I only wish we came here to eat but take out was delicious. Love the area of Woodstock and food never disappoints. We walked by later on that day and it's definitely cute looking inside.

They were super gracious to get us a lunch table for 8, twice on a long weekend. Super popular place, excellent food with friendly service. I would highly recommend the Cajun trout tacos and the french toast with the whipped cream and berries toppings.

Excellent brunch, tons of options for everyone who wants a good meal or a quick bite. Corned beef hash and egg Benedict were delicious! Portion size was generous. Service was good too. It was a full house during the weekends, but we were lucky that there's no wait when walking in. It's also very convenient that you can pay by scanning the QR code on the check.

You have one insanely rude person working there who came at me so hot. I brought my service animal in, and she immediately (and sternly) said "NO DOGS ALLOWED" without even saying good morning? The signs on the window and front counter clearly say service animals allowed. Had she kindly and gently told me my service animal isn't allowed, I would've left. But she caused me distress with that chaotic energy. It was before 11am, and I hadn't even woken up fully yet. She wrongfully assumed my service animal was an emotional support animal, which I find absurd and disgusting. I completely understand that this establishment may have had issues in the past, but that does not warrant nasty vibes. She knows who she is. Additionally, this was on a Monday, weekday, not even a holiday? There were 2-3 tables there. It wasn't busy. I don't understand why she was so flustered. :)

So nice service. Sweet breakfast place. I like it. The stuffed tater tots is amazing. So yummy. Breakfast burrito- great sauce and balance with avocado. Delicious.

So disappointing, they can't make poached eggs. We sent them back 3 times & then gave up. Ordered burger medium, it came well well done. The French toast was terrible. They gave away our table on my husband's birthday brunch, to a group that didn't have a reservation. Today, they were overwhelmed. In the past we've had good experiences, but after today I think we won't be back. It's so humid & there's no air conditioning. It's sweltering in here. I'm not bitter, Im honest.

Great brunch spot located downtown Woodstock. Everything i got here is quality and fresh and will definitely make it a regular stop as i should be in town more often

We came here with our friends for brunch last Sunday. The place was slammed and there was a wait, but we walked around the town during it, so the time passed quickly. First thing to note about this place: it is shockingly and deafeningly loud. You can see they that they tried to make it better by installing some soundboards on the ceiling, but it is still horrific. Our waitress was really sweet, but it was clear that she was in the weeds and we didn't see her for most of our time there. The coffee is good. One of us got their kale salad and added poached eggs, but only one came out on top even though the "added side" said that there would be two. No complaints about the salad, which was standard, but well-executed and tasted fine. Same thing with the breakfast quesadilla: they're not doing anything "fancy" or impressively "artisanal" here, but you'll be sated with your eggs, cheese, spinach, and grocery store-purchased tortilla. Our daughter was very happy with her French toast, which was a sugar-carb explosion perfectly tailored for children in the morning. We were treated to brunch, so can't speak to the value other than to say that Oriole 9 seems consistent with the pricing in the area, which is higher-than-usual, but not obnoxiously so. We had a pleasant final meal here with our friends, and while it's really more 3.5 stars, we're rounding up in a spirit of good will.

Food is average and priced similarly to other restaurants in the area, a bit on the expensive side but all the restaurants have similar expensive dishes and your in Woodstock prices are on par with tourist destinations. Service was absolutely horrible, no plates provided for appetizers, we had to corner a waitress to ask for plates, original waitress who took our order disappeared through the entire meal but showed up at the end to ask how everything was and to drop the check, no water refills provided even when we asked for more water for the table, ice tea was expensive mostly ice and getting a refill was nearly impossible, you pay by the glass as well. Overall food was ok, service for our experience was outrageous and disappointing, would not dine again due to horrible service.

Lovely breakfast place. Very colorful interior. Staff is efficient. The food was ready good. Very fresh and flavorful. Th coffee was good. It can get busy but you will get a place early breakfast time

This is just a review of coffee. Dark roast - very bold and full bodied. Hints of ash and smokey burnt flavors. Would go well with sweet milk but as far as black coffee goes it doesn't hit the mark.

We just finished doing to Railroad Explorer and wanted to find a place to have a good lunch near Overlook Mountain. Saw this place on TripAdvisor and said it is Californian. So lucky we did come in and try. I had the Cajun trout tacos which came in 2 pieces and the fish was lightly fried and the cilantro crema was oozy. That was $10 and so worth it. My son got the homemade corn beef hash skillet and wow the corn beef hash was one of the best ones we had. So much that I ordered a side of that for $6. My wife got the lobster Benedict which she thought was just okay and wished there were more lobster. For drink, I got the Vietnamese ice coffee and that really hit the spot as well. Honestly. we really enjoyed this place and the food is very fresh and wonderful service. Highly recommended.

It would be easy and simple to say I was in Woodstock NY for three days and ate at the Oriole 9 twice, but hey it wouldn't be a real review. I'm suprised by some people these days, but if you haven't noticed the pandemic has taken straight aim at restaurants - short staffed or staff having to pull double shifts so let's cut some slack. Oh, and a reminder - yea Woodstock NY may be peace and love, but it is expensive everywhere to you shop and eat. Now back to O9 service and food. Everybody at Oriole 9 was nice. Friendly. Helpful. Accommodating. Funny. Professional. All this with a smile by the waitresses and bus-persons. The food is simply great, which fills the place with people. Here is the reason - fresh food perfectly prepared and/or cooked, with a splash of inventiveness, and plenty of options. Entering around closing time, we were seated and waited on by Brook (two weeks and I still remember Brook). End of the day, double shift and she had the patience's of an angel reviewing the menu with us. Day one was freshly prepared salsa and guacamole, Classic Cheddar Burger lettuce tomato and onions, vegan-burger, fries, soy-milk latte and (I almost fainted!) Vietnamese Coffee - Forgetaboutit! The "guac" was a perfect blend of flavors - no over seasoning or lime/lemon. Both burgers were off the hook tasty, moist, and flavorful. The fries were potato filled with a nice crisp outside. The coffees were so delicious we ordered our seconds immediately. Day two was great coffee again (see above), fresh and plentiful lox on a toasted bagel. I love eggs over hash and I am always looking for something different and Oriole 9 delivered. Corned beef was cubed, eggs cooked to order, onions tender and the spices spot on. For the most part the cubes melted in your mouth, but an occasional fatty piece made chewing tough, but overall, the taste was off the hook. In planning for our next Woodstock NY trip, we will be heading immediately to Oriole 9, making sure it is a Friday Saturday or Sunday to see Brook

Food was great and staff was super friendly. It's a popular place so we had to wait for a while and the wait order was a little disorganized, otherwise it's a great place.

2.5 stars. I've been here twice. Huge area which is great because it gets really busy on the weekends. can get loud with all the conversations but nothing unnerving. I like the bar area seating to give it a kind of diner feel. I've been here twice and the first time it was great breakfast to start the day. The second time, there was uncooked batter on my French toast so I sent it back. They took it back and gave me another but the same thing happened again. So I sent it back again- this time they just cooked that order longer, which was a turn off, so I sent it back and asked to not be charged for it. By now my husband is almost done with his meal and I'm annoyed. They offered me a free pastry for the inconvenience which helped but it wasn't what I wanted. My husband got the burrito or quesadilla and he liked it. So I'm not saying they can't get anything right, and I'm sure the kitchen was busy, but it's a bummer that an all day breakfast spot couldn't get French toast right. If I'm ever on Woodstock again, I'll be skipping this establishment.

Cute little restaurant with killer stuffed tater tots and brioche French toast. This was differently a hidden gem. Staff is great and friendly and work together so that you are constantly being attended to.

Stopped in at 2:30. They close @ 3:00 on Sunday but seated us pleasantly and delivered excellent service & food. I had the pumpkin spice White Russian which is a delicious blend of a classic with seasonal twist. We ordered two soups (chili & chicken tortilla) and both were hot & delicious. For main we ordered the corned beef hash which is a little misleading as it's not hashed. It's cubed. But the quality is excellent and the eggs were properly prepared (medium). Charming service. Good food. Nice vibe all around.

Fun spot with friendly service. Unique food options so there is something for everyone

We loved our brunch at this cute restaurant; very happy vibe, good service, great brunch/lunch/breakfast menu and reasonable prices. We'd definitely go back. Yes, there was a wait and yes some of our order was mixed up--wrong back, bacon not crisp enough, and no toast initially; but all fixed and we were very happy.

To start, the staff appeared disheveled, wearing sweatpants, and hair not combed. The hygiene of the was quite concerning and frankly unprofessional. The restaurant was crowded and staff were aimlessly walking around. The restaurant was also quite loud for a small space. The hostess was incredibly slow, lackluster and seemed inept; forgetting we were there on 2 occasions. After 35 min we were seated and our waitress appeared confused and took another 30 min to place our order. My "double espresso" was literally drip coffee but in an espresso cup. The waitress then forgot to put in our order and multiple other groups got served and left before we even ate. The tater tots were very good, however the lox and bagel was just average. Not worth the price and wait. I'm not sure what I'm not seeing that other Yelp reviewers did.

Perhaps the best benedict florentine I've ever had. Bacon was perfect as was the potatoes. Great service too!

Corned Beef Hash Breakfast Shrimp & Grits Bloody Mary with their in house mix Specialty Cocktails

Just got back from a trip to Woodstock, NY and can't say enough good things about Oriole 9! My partner and I went there for brunch a few days ago, and I can't stop thinking about delicious melt-in-your-mouth burger I was served. The staff was incredibly kind and friendly and the decor was bright, inviting, and welcoming. Our entire trip was amazing, so the bar for a "breakout meal" was high, but I'm pleased to share that Oriole 9 was definitely a stand-out part of our trip. Highly recommend!

Really nice gem in the heart of Woodstock. The breakfast was really good (btw, love their take on corn beef hash). We ate here twice the weekend we stayed in Woodstock, that should tell you something. The service staff was friendly and very attentive. Definitely a must try.

I truly can not say enough good things about this wonderful place! We loved it so much we went back two days in a row! The first thing I need to address is their coffee, Being Italian I am super picky about my caffeine LLLN this was the most flavorful rich and delicious cup of coffee I've had in my entire life I don't know what magic they put into it but boy does it show. The food was Impeccable and they had some vegan options which made me really happy that I could get a side of Tempeh! And the orange juice was fresh squeezed and amazing. We found the service to be wonderful our waitress was a pleasure and the service was prompt and the cleanliness was impeccable definitely going to be coming back here on our next visit out there

Visited Woodstock, NY for a weekend trip. Ended it with brunch here and it was wonderful!! Good food and good service.

Brunch here was very tasty! I had a smoked salmon benedict, and my fiance had a breakfast quesadilla, which was big! I had to help him finish it :) Brunch goes until 3, which is fantastic! They show you the menu by taking a shot of the QR code with your food and looking at the menu online. I'm guessing this is a Covid thing to avoid touching menus. It was a little weird but fine if it keeps us healthy!

A good selection of breakfast/lunch items! Was bummed to hear they didn't have outdoor dining, but ended up getting it to go and eating it on the patio of my air bnb. A bit of a heavy brunch, but tasty. I got the Reuben with fries, my boyfriend got the breakfast quesadilla, and we shared the tortilla soup. Not something I expected, but the fries were amazing! Super crispy and thick. The Reuben was good, just a lot of sauerkraut and cheese, which is expected. The tortilla soup had great flavor and had a kicker to it. A bit oily, but surprisingly pretty good. The breakfast quesadilla was great too.

My gf and I came to Woodstock with our friends for a weekend getaway and came here for breakfast. The place was cute and colorful. The food was decent but not the best. I got the eggs Florentine which was yummy but my poached egg was definitely over cooked and not runny at all, which was the same thing with the huevos rancheros. My gf and our other friend got the breakfast quesadilla and both of them liked it when they took their first bites but then said it was extremely soggy to the point where they couldn't eat it anymore. We also got the yogurt which was good. The fruit was fresh, but it is plain yogurt, so if you like sweeter yogurt this isn't the thing for you. The coffee here was good and they have a lot of options you can choose from.

So promising. So disappointing. Cutely and brightly decorated. Waitress was great. It was breakfast. "Bacon extra crispy." After i sent it back, it was still soggy and not crispy. Toasted English was cold and barely toasted. Butter was a brick. No American coffee. Just americano. Eggs not so good. No Wi-Fi and so so cell service so really need Wi-Fi. Great waitress - five stars - yields two stars because food was zero.

I was a frequent local customer for years---no more. Open at odd hours, staff is slow but I don't blame them as they are overwhelmed. The owner could give a hand but is missing in action or yelling if she is around. I tried to get a table but it was packed too close so left. I tried again to get takeout and my order was messed up. Plus they had a small child working serving food. I doubt the kid was even 10 years old! The owner should know better as your bread and butter are the long-term locals and not the tourists. I thought she knew better but guess not or she's too stressed to deal with things.
