Our Story

Tucked on the west side of Lincoln, Nebraska, we’ve been around since 2013. At Woodees, every meal is made with love and served with genuine Midwest hospitality. Guests come hungry and leave with full bellies.

Everyone’s Welcome

While the walls proudly show Husker red, everyone’s welcome at Woodees — no matter what team you root for. From locals to travelers across the globe, Woodees is proud to serve everyone who walks through its doors.

Meet Lynette

Lynette started here as a waitress. When she took over, she made it her mission to keep that sense of community alive. Her open-arms hospitality and joyful humor define what Woodees stands for: generosity, honesty, and care. She’s the familiar face pouring coffee, sharing a laugh, and making sure everyone leaves feeling better than when they came.
