As a transplant to the KC metro, I had been missing the feel of my home town local comfort food restaurant and this place definitely far exceeded what I was expecting.
The staff were so kind and friendly and while we were visiting for the first time, they treated us just as if we were regulars. You could really feel the love the staff have for each other and the establishment by how they didn’t skip a beat or slow down to playfully interact with each other while still working.
Parking was fairly full and even then we got greeted and our drinks and appetizers right away (10/10 recommend the mozzarella sticks solely for that long cheese pull). We got a few breaded apps and they were crispy and evenly hot so you could tell they weren’t just pulled out of the freezer and popped in the microwave. The fries are my perfect cooked fry – crunchy outside but still soft potato inside.
For their entrees, 100% recommend the prime rib, if I was to pick one thing to eat for the rest of my life it would be this. It was a perfect balance of tenderness, juice, and flavor – the seasoning on its own is all I’ll be thinking about for a while.
While I didn’t get a dessert, the bread pudding looked amazing.

The lady working last night was awesome. So cheerful and friendly. We just happened in because we were coming to town to ride the Christmas train with my grandson and it was just an all-around great experience.

Food was fair. Service was courteous and attentive. Systems are antiquated. ” Unable ” to accept VISA gift cards towards bill……they said. Definitely deflated the mood of our ‘date night’

Best Prime rib I’ve ever had. And I’ve had prime rib around the country. Good lord this one touched my soul. And it’s only an hour from home. We came. We saw. We meant business.

What a cute family owned restaurant. Everything is made from scratch and tastes delicious! The service was excellent. All of our entrees were served hot, as well as plated in a pleasing-to-the-eye manner. This was my first visit but not my last. (Chicken Fried Chicken)

Great menu! A lot of choices. Excellent service. Not a large facility.

First time there. Small town restaurant in a converted gas station. Fries were too salty. Pork tenderloin sandwich meat was paper thin, fish sandwich was lacking any flavor. One waitress did her best but overall service was pretty slow and am guessing a small kitchen staff. They charge for credit cards.

We are here last night, December 17th 2021, for my my husband’s 28th birthday.
We have lived in Baldwin for 2 years and those years have been pretty rough, we were so lucky to find an apartment in sweet and quiet Baldwin City. We love it here and plan on buying a home. We’ve experienced quite a few events here but this was our first local restaurant. We were finally able to come to The Wooden Spoke after hearing so much about it and we brought friends from out of town.
What a charming, down-home, relaxed place. The parking lot felt like you were pulling into a old-time drive in, but you get out of your car and reach the door and it feels like you are standing outside of someone’s well-loved home. The tables reminded me of my own kitchen tables in my childhood home. I felt comfortable as soon as I sat down. The waitress was extremely attentive, her energy was calm and sincere. Our drink orders were taken immediately, our appetizers came out quickly and the entrees were the best home cooking we all have had in many years.
We ordered the KC strip, the ribeye, the bourban steak and the spoke burger, spoke fries, mash potatoes, the chilli, mozzarella sticks, potato skins, and the wings in this beautiful honey brown sauce that was sweet, spicy, smoky and honestly it was incredible. I love WINGS and these took the trophy from me and my friends!
Our food and plates were hot, the food was fast. All the steaks were cooked as asked, all steaks were medium rare, juicy, delicious and quite big. Burger was done just well and had a classic burger taste.
The alcoholic beverages were delicious and made strong.
My daughter ordered the kids chicken strips and she said they were very good, we loved the fries. The spoke burger was amazing and the mustard tasted homemade. My husband especially loved the chilli. Overall, the food was spectacular. The service was fast and friendly, the environment was clean and comfy. We will definitely be back.
Thank you wooden spoke staff and mad respect and kudos to the Chef who made an unforgettable night full of nostalgic decor, warm and friendly interaction and phenomenal home-cooking! See you again soon!!
I wish I could add more photos but it was such a good time, I didn’t think about taking a bunch, I just soaked in the night! ⚪️

What can I say except, WOW! From the moment we walked in I was impressed with this family-run restaurant! If you didn’t have an appetite before, you certainly will when you open the door and smell all that good food cooking! The inside is currently decorated for Christmas and they’ve done an amazing job, it is SO CUTE!!! The waitress we had was so sweet and friendly, we had our drinks and appetizers super fast too! Mozzarella sticks, fried mushrooms, french fries, prime rib, chili, and bread pudding, all perfect! I’d eat that chili all week long if I could! I’m from KC and I can honestly say, this was worth the drive 100%. Definitely coming back soon!!! Also, food was cooked to perfection, my prime rib was exactly what I wanted.
