Breakfast Menu "Wooden Paddle" Lemont

Can’t say enough about this place: • Food - we ordered the skirt steak and pretty fly pizza which were both prepared perfectly! • Staff - the staff was attentive and friendly! They were even hosting a party for foster youth which was admirable. Highly recommend! Oh yeah…the drinks were excellent as well.

We used the Wooden Paddle for our wedding and they were the best!! When touring venues, Wooden Paddle popped up as a caterer and we immediately were interested. The pizza is SO good. It's fresh, the combos are incredible and we immediately booked them that evening. Working with the team was a breeze. Joelle and Miriam were easy and fun to work with. They accommodated all dietary preferences and made us feel at ease leading up to our wedding. The day of the wedding, people were RAVING about the food. We had a charcuterie platter, bite size toasts, Caprese pops and steak bites. The pizza was incredible and possibly the highlight of my wedding. The staff was fast and quick. Truly did not need to worry about a single thing with the Wooden Paddle on our team.

Finally made it here! Wooden Paddle is a popular place in downtown Lemont with good reason! Pizza is creative and consistently delicious (Buzzkill was perfection!) along with a classy yet casual environment. Being able to grab a coffee on the way out was icing on the cake! We’ve also heard many compliments regarding their cocktail program. If you haven’t been, you should!

If you love good food that your guests will rave about, book Wooden Paddle for your wedding or event. Everyone was so friendly and amazing to work with, from beginning to end. I highly recommend doing a tasting, you’ll be blown away by all the amazing food and the restaurant is adorable! At the wedding, everyone from Wooden Paddle was incredible. All of our guests with dietary restrictions received the correct food and everyone was treated with such kindness. I was even able to eat and I’m so glad I made that a priority. Also our guests were able to take home boxes of pizza at the end of the night which was a highlight. I can’t say enough amazing things about Wooden Paddle, and I can’t wait to visit the restaurant again soon!

We are so happy that we hired Wooden Paddle to cater our wedding. We received so many complements and positive feedback on the taste and uniqueness of the food. The catering staff really went above and beyond with managing to work on multiple floors that our venue had. Additionally, our guest asked for more of certain kinds of pizza and special dietary accommodations last minute, and they delivered! They took care of me and the bride very well and made sure that we enjoyed all of the delicious food that night. I cannot say enough positive comments about this business!

Wooden Paddle catered our wedding and it was amazing! They were one of our first booked and easiest vendors to work with! Their food is delicious!! I am gluten-free, and Wooden Paddle was able to easily accommodate that without sacrificing taste. Our guests loved it, and have not stopped raving about how good the pizza was. Not only was the food great, but also the staff! There was a plate waiting for us at our dinner table saved from our cocktail hour charcuterie board since we were too busy taking pictures during cocktail hour to enjoy it. Do not hesitate to book with Wooden Paddle!! Both you AND your guests will LOVE it!

Great lively place. We had reservations which was a great idea for a Friday or Saturday night. The seating is cozy, we really liked our spot right by the window. You can also dine at the counter too and can watch all the action going on by the pizza oven. We tried the shrimp pops, arancini, pork chop, pasta bolognese. Everything was delicious and prices are reasonable. Dessert was flourless chocolate cake and cake pops... so good! We'll definitely be back to try more of the pizza as well. Highly recommend!

Our first time here, we already can't wait to come back! Delicious drinks, amazing food, good vibes and outstanding service - what more can you ask for?! Taylor was our server and she is the best!!!
