Tiger Lily & Tamarack
What a find! Cozy inviting atmosphere draws you in and beckons you to sit and stay awhile. The baked goods are scrumptious with vegan and gluten free options. A vegan pumpkin black bean soup was on offer till 2pm, I was sad we just missed it. Can’t wait to try it another day. Sugar free (they have multiple syrup flavors) coffee and peach tea energized us. Super fun outdoor seating overlooks the river. What a perfect spot to spend a sunny Indian Summer afternoon. The staff wrapped us in kindness and ensured that this coffee shop is our new favorite. Thank you and we will be back!

If I could give this place seven stars, I would. It’s not just that it’s local, or that the interior is absolutely gorgeous. It’s not simply that the staff is incredibly welcoming, or that the entire establishment exudes a bright, charming, almost familial atmosphere. It’s that my daughter has truly found a second family there. She brings her friends whenever she’s saved enough to treat them, and it’s become a genuine goal for her to visit as often as possible. They feel safe, secure, and completely at home there, and I love that. I wish this business all the best and will do everything I can to support them. They’ve made such a positive impact on my older daughter, and I know my younger daughter and her friends will soon feel the same way! Thank you!

Woods & River Coffee in Oil City is my go-to spot for a little escape from the daily grind. The cozy atmosphere makes it feel like a second home. You can grab a table, chat with friends, or just sit back and enjoy being in the community as a third space.
I’m a huge fan of their drinks! The River Fog is my all-time favorite and the Summer Sunrise is perfect when you want something light and refreshing! Their bagels are fresh and delicious, and it’s nice knowing that every visit supports local businesses.
If you’re in Oil City and looking for a place with great coffee, tasty treats, and a welcoming vibe, Woods & River is definitely worth a stop!

Woods & River is so much more than a coffee shop, it’s a place that feels good to walk into. The atmosphere is welcoming, warm, and thoughtfully created, and it’s clear they’ve built a culture centered on people, quality, and community.
Beyond great coffee and a space you actually want to spend time in, Woods & River is a really well-run, intentional business. They support local jobs, draw people downtown, and contribute in a meaningful way to a thriving local economy. You can tell there’s care behind every decision, from how they treat customers to how they show up for the community.
It’s the kind of place that makes a town better simply by being in it.

I was in town for an event and had time to kill. I found this adorable coffee shop that had seating. I parked and put enough money for 2 hrs. I got a large specialty drink that was so delicious. I chose a small table out of the way to set up my laptop to do some studying. There were several tables open with ample seating.
I overheard a worker tell someone “people just bring their laptops and set up shop for the day, I mean I guess they buy something but …..geez”.
I was so embarrassed. I froze and debated confrontation or dignity. I gathered my stuff up and left. I checked the meter and had an hour and 20 minutes left. There was myself and one other guy doing work. He also chose a small space out of the way.
Am I wrong, or isn’t this what most coffee shops are for?!

*EDIT* Whatever training they had, worked. I have ordered 8 drinks, since my last review. They were all consistent! Nicely made, promptly served hot and full of flavor! I’ll grab a drink, every now and again, for my clients and they have since requested I pick them one up, if I can!! Thanks for taking our reviews into consideration and fixing the only issue I had. ❤️❤️❤️
I always get the same thing, however, it doesn’t always taste the same. Consistency is something I look for, especially, when I’m spending *almost* $7 for a large mocha. I can’t keep taking chances on getting the flavor I’m craving and not being happy. A cup of really hot water with whip cream is very disappointing. It’s great though, when it’s made right. I always wait until I’ve been a place a few times to leave a review! I hope this helps… I’ve filled out 4 cards and will say the consistency is around 70%.

Their coffee is amazing, the views are lovely, and the staff are super friendly! I made an hour and a half drive from our campsite to their spot and would do it all over again to have their coffee. And, they were super sweet with my dogs and have the cutest items for sale. Will be coming back every time I camp in PA!

When I lived in Oil City, I absolutely loved coming here and getting a bear town breakfast sandwich. Their lattes are so yummy and their staff is so kind. I would absolutely recommend coming here!
