Wooden Bakery, Coffee Shop, Bar And Restaurant — Restaurant in Northern Region

Wooden is a delightful gem that serves authentic northern delicacies, bringing a true taste of Ghana’s northern culture to the table.

The food is not only delicious but also carries a sense of authenticity that speaks to the care and skill of the chefs.

The meals are pricier than other joints in town - but again, consider...
