About this restaurant

Innovative
Neighbourhood gem
Great for brunch

CWC is the restaurant realization of the Cincinnati-based Cooking with Caitlin brand. Smack dab in the center of Wyoming, OH, it’s a love note to the community where we, Caitlin, Kelly, and Karen, have rooted our families and grown our business.

Come hungry for familiar ingredients twisted inventively into extra special comfort food as only Chefs Caitlin + Brian know how to twist them. Our Baby Biscuits and Char Cheddar Burgers are signature staples; the rest changes seasonally. And in our small, scratch kitchen, *we sometimes run out of items*.

CWC is an ongoing opportunity for us to serve and celebrate our neighbors, friends, and fans in the intimate way we do our own families, at our own kitchen counter. We take personally your experience and are grateful for the opportunity to break bread with you.

NOTE: "Counter" seats are right in front of the chefs in our completely open kitchen.

Caitlin's new menu is fantastic. The tasting menu will rival anything you will get at a higher price point. The food has finesse and imagination, the wine pairings are spot on and unique. Truly a memorable evening, and that is even given covid!

We always enjoy the Sunday brunch at CWC and go as often as possible! We enjoy sitting outside on their patio for a breakfast cocktail followed by the Breakfast nachos and yeast donuts. I also love all the bagels Caitlin makes from scratch. There is always at least one unique offering as well. My only advice is to go early before something runs out!! Very popular!!

Go where they know your name. Food is yummy and made from local fresh ingredients. Different and yet comfortable. Kelly makes you feel as if she is hosting you at her home. Magical and oh so good. Come hungry.
