Parking was a headache. Especially factoring in our visit happening on Labor Day weekend, there was a ton of foot traffic. Designated parking spots were all filled and the parking garage further down was just as packed. It took many attempts before we were able to locate someone leaving the premises. The check in and wait for a table was just as bad in the eatery. I used the time to look over the menu. Here you will find classic American comfort foods and fancier items with an elevated twist. There is essentially something for everyone. Lunch for our party: *BALSAMIC BRUSSELS SPROUTS *MIXED GREENS SALAD WITH BLACKENED SALMON *GRILLED LAMB CHOPS *KID'S CHICKEN TENDERS WITH VEGGIES Food was pretty good. The lamb chops were exceptional and although the blackened salmon didn't taste or look so delicious, I appreciated it not being overcooked. The chicken tenders were a nice golden brown and was not over battered and the medley of fresh veggies were really good. The balsamic brussels were good in size but the flavoring wasn't the best. All in all, the food was enjoyed. The one mishap that stood out was with Tessa H. forgetting my toddler's drink. We were half way through our meal when I realized nothing had been brought out to us even after the drink order had been taken. We flagged her down and let her know but ended up having to remind her 2 additional times before receiving the drink. At that point, the meal was already over. 4 stars overall but 1 star deducted because of the soda situation.

Calling it a trail is a bit of a stretch. There were a lot of food options, but I just wasn't really feeling any of them. It was all burgers and hotdogs and I think there was a BBQ place. We went inside a pastry shop that looked pretty dang good though. There was a store with a lot of Christmas themed decor and they had frozen chicken pot pies. I would've loved to have brought one home, but unfortunately this was not our last stop of the day and I had no way to keep it cold in the car. I did really enjoy the area where all the vendors were set up. I got the cutest pair of fall leaf earrings for five dollars that were handmade and some really tasty spicy cheese, crunchy corn snack. I wouldn't be opposed to returning, but I'm not in any rush too. Lots of places in Apple Hill to check out.

Beautiful views that trail wrap around vineyards- the entrance is breathtaking! Small pop up booths of local vendors surround the orchard with cute gifts and souvenirs for the harvest season. They also have a fruit stand- & i love fresh fruit but the majority of the fruit here was split open and looking dull or brown in appearance like it was close to expiring. The lines were long for the cider donuts & sadly it didn't move fast. So I never got to try to cider donuts bc when I went it was almost one hr from closing. A lot of the pies were sorted through and the ones left were scattered in type and limited so decided not to take one home. And it was overall a smaller, more crowded stand then I expected with limited variety. Im sure they have great cider donuts- but I would recommend getting here first thing in the morning. This seems to be one of the more popular stands and parking can become complicated. I will have to give it another try to see a true experience because I feel like I didn't get to gather the true festive experience here.

I am exceedingly picky and selective about my BBQ coming from a BBQ family my entire life, prefer BBQ dry rubs versus any sugary sauces that seem to disguise and mask flavors to me of really good meats, so chose accordingly on both the turkey and brisket. When I got home and got a really good tasteful of each before adding to my salad, I thought I had died and gone to heaven! Both were incredibly juicy (the turkey moreso), fantastically melt in your mouth tender, and the flavor was out of this world, just like I remember from living back at the East Coast and unlike most other disappointing BBQ I've tried in CA over the last 25 years (when I spot BBQ I have to try some). A bit pricey by the pound, but perfection is worth it. The sandwiches and rest of menu look reasonable. I'm a purist, watching my carbs, and the meat I had is just too divine to not be eaten by itself or flavoring a salad for me. BTW? It was the BEST salad I've ever eaten in my entire life if that gives you an idea!

They even allow dogs, so bring along the fur babies as well. The ranch is open every Saturday and Sunday from May to December. Parking and admission is free. They serve local beers, wine, hard cider, nonalcoholic flavored lemonades, and their famous apple cider milkshake. There is a food grill selling hot dogs and burgers. There's even a petting zoo. $8 to pet baby calves, small ponies, and the such. $4 additional for a feed cup. There is a large grassy lawn to throw down a towel or bring your own chairs, relax. Plus I gotta mention that they have no plumbed restrooms, they have porta toilets and portable handwashing stations. Not a deal breaker for me. Just letting y'all know. Every weekend, they have live music. We went on a night that Nikki Perez was singing. Happy happenstance. Man, she's a talent!! Look her up on IG. Around the stage there are Adirondack chairs and picnic tables. Saturday 10am-7pm Sunday 10am-5pm Later in the year, they'll open the u pick apple orchard in late August; then the pumpkin patch in late September; and then the tree farm in late November.
