The only true cider brewery in Arkansas. Some of my top favorites are hibiscus and blue berry. I felt atmosphere was very dark and wait staff disengage from customers. read more

Is a must go! If you are reading this pre cider bar enthusiast popping up everywhere (much like the local brewery craze) then you will enjoy this to the max and want to start your own cider craft, but if you are reading this post cider bar craze...this will probably be one of the greatest establishments and longest running because it is that awesome! So the twos of us went for a flight...which brewery wise you think flight of 4 or so popular beers...the the tender sets up for the pour simultaneously and I think oh he is getting a flight for the each of us...wrong'o my fair cats 1 flight 15 shots 2 or so oz. of various ciders!!! It was amazing! I will be back for live music in the future on Friday's read more

Best ciders in NWA. If you like a dry cider, the 1904 is the best. The location is quiet and chill with lots of seating inside and out for board games and hanging out. They do live bands and other themed nights! read more

This place has been on our bucket list for a while. We love to buy their canned ciders and we're eager to try it straight from the source. We were on a rare date and looking forward to some yum drinks after dinner. I ended up getting a Wild West flight which was amazing. My husband got a pineapple which he liked but was too sweet for me. The cucumber mint was my fave. Followed by the blueberry and semi sweet. We had a great time. More games would be nice. read more

This place is amazing, it's nice to have a reason to go downtown Springdale again! Best cider I've ever had in my life! Really cute set up. read more

See all

Start with a cider flight to get your bearings. The cider is decent. Among their current crop of four brews, you should be able to find one you don't care for, one that is meh, one that is just weird and one you realize will be your delicious go-to from now on. The outside area is much larger than expected. It would be great on a nice, warm day. There's a lot of unique touches inside as well. The oak barrel sink in the bathroom adds quirky charm. Keep in mind it's a pretty isolated bar despite being located in downtown Springdale. Don't expect to pub crawl from here unless you're getting on the nearby Greenway walking and bike trail. That trail goes south to Fayetteville and north to Rogers but I wouldn't recommend walking. read more

The princess peach was super delicious and was a pretty decent price for a cider house. They play some pretty awesome music too. The parking can be a bit of a bitch though. they have a trivia night monday nights which is pretty cool. they also allow dogs which is a super big plus. read more

Black Apple - From our office trivia night. Team Kevin and the zits. Got 2nd place out of 30 teams. Enjoying a delicious princess peach. - Breweries Near Me - Springdale, Arkansas

First cider pub in Arkansas. Thrilled with the casual atmosphere and options. Loved the Spice of Life and the Bellini. We walked to the taco hut, Don Guero, across the street and brought dinner back. Great evening. Keep fighting for downtown Springdale. read more

Black Apple - Our first flight at Black Apple Crossing. - Breweries Near Me - Springdale, Arkansas

Really nice change of pace from the regular micro-brew. Nice variety and ranges from dry to sweet. Great atmosphere and very friendly staff. We will definitely be back! read more

This is my new favorite brewery! I only wish it weren't a state away from where I live. I tasted two of their ciders on a business trip. They were so good my husband and I decided to visit the actual brewery the next weekend. The outdoor patio is great, and the bathrooms were very clean. The service was outstanding. The servers were so friendly and helpful. We tried a flight, which is all 8 of their on-tap ciders. We loved all but 1. We brought our dog with us and loved sitting on the patio with her. We saw a large dog in the taproom. They even brought our dog a bowl of water without our asking. We had brought a growler from home to fill and take home. It was reasonably priced (I believe $22 for 64 ounces), and they even washed the growler before filling it. They allow you to bring in outside food, so we grabbed some tacos from the place next door and enjoyed them with our cider. Parking was ample and easy. Overall, a great experience! read more

My wife and I stopped in here after the Hogeye half marathon. We were able to try any cider we wanted to sample, and the bartender, working alone against an onslaught of thirsty runners coming in to redeem their free drink tickets, was very calm and friendly, answering any questions anyone had. I like the 1904, and my wife liked the lemon cider. Downtown Springdale is up and coming, and while behind places like Bentonville and Fayetteville and their craft beer scene, it is gaining. Go check them out and take one of their unique growlers home! read more

Love the atmosphere here! So laid back and chill. I also love all the different flavors of cider they have. We live to grad tacos across the street then bring then to the back patio while listening to live music. read more

I was not a fan of any of the ciders. Building is currently under construction. Seating was a hodge lodge. They had a band that was good. Only one bathroom in the bar which was a bit uncomfortable. I think it has potential but still a ways to go. read more

Great place. Friendly staff. Very good food. Nice place to kick back and enjoy the evening. Worth swinging by and trying out.

I'm in love with this cidery! It's a cute little spot in Springdale, and my husband and I visited for the first time last week. I tend to favor the sweet ciders while my husband loves them all. The prices are reasonable as well. The only thing that I think would make this place better would be some sort of finger foods as cider can be kind of hard on an empty stomach. Other than that the cider, atmosphere, music and service was awesome! read more

We love visiting Black Apple Crossing! Sooooo many ciders to choose from, you are bound to find several to like! As Springdale continues to revamp the area around this place, Black Apple Crossing is growing and improving. We have really noticed over the last two years the number of people that have learned about these ciders. Great place, great ciders, and awesome staff! read more

Awesome service, very friendly staff. Incredible ciders ranging from sweet to very dry, exceeded all of my expectations. This is absolutely the best bar in Springdale ! read more

I love Black Apple Crossing! Tasty beverages and a very friendly atmosphere! Reminds me of the ciderys I miss in California. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I recommend you check it out yourself! read more

What a fantastic little venue!! We happened upon it one evening and had a few drinks...we later returned for a Post-Town Hall gathering and had a fabulous time..the staff was SO friendly and accomodating!! Super service, One-of-a-kind Artisan cocktails, try the Granny Apple!! Wow, the outside area is well lit and heated with a great vibe I don't often find in Springdale, ever! Must visit this great little establishment! read more

I love Black Apple Crossing!!! Very good service! We were greeted and helped right when we walked in the door. Everyone working was very helpful and friendly. Our server explained all of their ciders and we decided to go ahead and try them all. My favorite was Spice of Life but all of their ciders were delicious! I will definitely be back! read more

I ride my bike here regularly and it's always super great. Super chill vibe and dope cider. Tacos across the street are the best in town also. read more

4 ciders on tap to choose from. The seasonal, Ginger Snap, is also available hot. We tried them all, even the hot. All were very good. Flight of all four is $8; the 10 (12?) oz pours are about $6. A bit pricey. Atmosphere is wonderful. Thought it tacky for charging a buck for popcorn. Core Brewing has an Arkansas local popcorn company's yummy huge kernel popcorn...for free. read more

Super cozy and cute. Definitely get the flight (7 kinds for $12) to split amongst friends. They have a lot of games too!

Fun atmosphere and great cider. They have many flavors and rotating types. I like that they have added live music. Great patio, too, and near Razorback Greenway Trail. read more

I wasn't a cider drinker at all until I tried theirs. Now I am hooked. It's an amazing place with an amazing staff. Keep it up!!

Very good cider!! They have a really cool layout also. We have visited several breweries in nwa and this is one of the top ones on our list to revisit!! read more

The ciders are fantastic! If it's your first time, purchase the flight and try everything. You won't be disappointed. I personally love ciders, and my flight ranged from dry to sweet. My favorite was the Upside Down which was a pineapple cider that was fabulous! (I took home a growler of it). The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because we sat at the bar and had to listen to the employees banter and whine about shifts (one cussed a lot which killed the classy vibe). Make sure to sit anywhere else! The patio is adorable. The main seating area cozy. The establishment is very modern and relaxed. When my husband and I went, there was a bbq food truck near the patio. We were there late afternoon so it wasn't quite ready to serve yet (our bad); however, some people walked in with tacos from across the street. I will definitely be back!!!! read more

I am gluten intolerant. I also enjoy beer, wine, and all that stuff. So when a place opens up that has a hard cider that is made from organic apples I had to try it out. WOW! My wife and I went opening day and have been regulars ever since. Black Apple Crossing has become my favorite watering hole for sure. Everyone should stop by this place. Amazing cider, and amazing service. Truly elite. read more
