Welcome to Woodhaven House!

Woodhaven House in Rego Park is a
beautiful Irish pub. Yes, beautiful. Pubs and beauty normally don't
go together in Queens, but Woodhaven House is a great exception. A
neighborhood crowd, of all ages, including families, comes for
dinner and stays for drinks. The
attention and care is obvious, not just in the dark wood bar,
leather booths, and frosted, etched glass, but in the food and
service. On busy Woodhaven Boulevard, Woodhaven House is a good pit
stop close to the Queens Center Mall.
The interior is
beautiful. It's an Irish pub fantasy: polished dark wood, frosted
and etched glass, black-and-white tile floors, leather seats,
even a display case of Irish pottery. It's a pleasure to sit, admire
the decor, and enjoy a drink. The Guinness pours smooth, and the
stout's head remains once you've sucked up the last bit of
heavenly brown liquid. But who would want to live on beer alone?
The food is excellent. Entrees start at $8 for a burger with the
works and run $12 to $18 (steaks and seafood predominate). Try the
charred bacon-wrapped scallops for an appetizer. The restaurant
already does a steady dinner business with local residents, mostly
families...Woodhaven House is still
getting established, but if this is first-night jitters, watch out.
Woodhaven House could easily become a Queens landmark.
