Opened on June 10, 2005, the lively spin-off of Woodfire Grill, The Café at Woodfire, is a neighborhood café with handsomely crafted wood tables, carafes, a chef-appointed vintage Italian meat slicer and a Panini press. The Café is located in what used to be referred to as the "Front Room" of Woodfire Grill. The Café at Woodfire promises all of the romance of neighborhood haunts typically found in Italy, Spain, France, and in the American cities of San Francisco and New York.

The menu changes daily based on the availability of ingredients and what inspires the chef: cured meats, artisan cheeses, Paninis, house-made breads and pastries, soups, salads, and house-made sausages. The Café menu is comprised of light fare encouraging guests to experience several different tastes, as well as some of Woodfire Grill's signature dishes such as wood fired pizzas or wood grilled burgers (made from all natural beef, ground in house and served on a house-made bun) served with pommes frites. A nicely-appointed menu for snacking includes antipasti, house-cured and artisan produced salami and meats, house-marinated olives, as well as farmstead and artisan cheeses from the critically-acclaimed Woodfire Grill cheese cave.

The Limoncello Bar offers some of the best Limoncellos from Italy, served ice cold. The Café at Woodfire strives to offer a bar experience reminiscent of an old-world Italian roadside cafe, where a plate of house-cured salami and a carafe of rosso is all you need.

Wines are selected for their ability to pair with the Café menu as well as the wine director's eye for the unexpected. Wines are offered by the glass from $4.00-$7.00, by the bottle for $16.00-$28.00, or by the carafe. Beer lovers have not been forgotten, with a selection that includes brews from around the region as well as hard-to-find bottles from abroad. A full spirit bar is also available.

A meal at the Café would not be complete without some of Woodfire Grill's wonderfully inspired desserts. As a complement to the desserts, a full selection of ports and sherries are available, as well as espresso by Illy.

Service is more casual than that experienced in the dining room of Woodfire Grill, but no less warm, friendly, caring & knowledgeable.

The Café at Woodfire offers an array of house-prepared menu items for take out. In addition, guests may purchase house-baked signature breads, cheeses and various ingredients like artisan-produced olive oils and vinegars. The same great quality products found at Woodfire every day are now available for entertaining at home!

The Café serves the full menu Tuesday-Thursday from 5:30 p.m. until 10:00 p.m., Friday-Saturday from 5:30 p.m. until 11:00 p.m., and Sunday from 5:30 p.m. until 9:30 p.m. As can be imagined with any self-respecting cafe, no reservations are accepted. Seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis for the 40 sure-to-go-fast seats. Complimentary valet parking is provided. Just to make sure every diner has an equal opportunity to really live each experience at The Café at Woodfire, the space is smoke-free.
