SO, they've added some sweeter ciders since my last visit (2018!), and I really appreciate that. That Strawberry Lemonade was DELISH! The food was quite good too, though even though we were there for dinner before another event, we stuck to the salads and apps. But I love when you can do that, and walk away feeling satisfied. The service was great, and you just can't beat the ambiance of an old fire house! Worth the money and a lovely evening. read more

Have been wanting to come here to try some gluten friendly items on the menu. Started with the Riplet cauliflower which was good. The fish n chips were ok. The fish was great but not enough tartar sauce and the fries were a disappointment. Same with the chicken sandwich. It was fine but the fries were supposed to be garlic Parmesan. You could see a seasoning on them but there was no flavor to it. The service was good only because someone else brought us our food and silverware. Our actual waitress was not great kind of ignoring us. Never asked if our food was good and didn't refill drinks as much as we would like. The space was ok, not what we expected more run down and historic looking than we thought it would be. read more

Bring on the ciders! I love a crisp cider. I tried out a flight to get a little taste of everything! The dude serving everything was helpful and chill. The Foundation is great and I enjoyed the pumpkin ale. If I weren't flying back home I definitely would have got some! It's got amazing flavor! The honey crisp and strawberry lemonade were a bit too sweet for me, but I'm glad I gave them a shot! They also have a nice food selection on their menu. Didn't partake but I would have tried the cauliflower if I had room!!! Try it out if you like cider! The logo is super cute-- get a free sticker at the bar read more

Really cool spot! I love brick river cider, so it's awesome to get almost any flavor they have on tap. They also had a nice selection of accoutrements like growlers, brandy, shirts, non-alcoholic cans, etc. I like going at different times of year to taste the special season flavors of cider they have. Really kind and knowledgeable staff as well. read more

Yum!! Went with some friends. Of course had to try the cider flight. sweet Lou and Peach were definitely my two favorites. Sweet Lou is subtly floral just a delightful drink. The apple and cheese melt; chef's kiss. Our server was very nice and helpful. Great time for our group of 4. The only downside is there is no acoustic tiles so it gets loud quickly. read more

Brick River Cider on Washington Ave aka lunch in a 130-year-old firehouse. Bring it on. What an ambiance. The place has all the exposed brick and history. I didn't come for cider. I came to eat! I am a rebel. I went rogue with the fried tofu flatbread. It was crispy and savory. Loved it! Exactly the mid-day rescue mission I needed. Fantastic service. read more

We LOVE Brick River! They are on the pubpass (bonus!) and also offer Groupon deals sometimes (yahoo!). The cider selection is top notch and the staff is always friendly. I don't think we've tried anything we haven't liked yet! Our seasonal favorite currently: caramel apple cider (DROOL.) Appreciate that they are family friendly and also cater to adults. There are games to borrow, and the bathrooms are clean. We always enjoy our visit here! read more

Started with a Ciderita. It tasted like a cider inspired margarita. Then we ordered shareables and we got the Cider Brined Wings, Spinach Dip and Garlic Parmesan Fries. The wings were good size and were crispy which I liked. The wings were seasoned well and have a little heat. The fries taste great with the garlic and Parmesan seasoning. The spinach dip was under season. The dip needed garlic and onion seasoning. We had excellent service from Nick our server. The restaurant has a fun vibe. There's plenty of street parking around the restaurant. read more

I have Celiac Disease and I love gluten free cider. I also really like the cider style of Brick River Cider (especially cloudy home style). We decided to visit the physical location when we visited St. Louis. Unfortunately, I did not know that they don't allow dogs inside. We had our little chihuahua with us. We were told no dogs when we entered and I immediately went outside to sit on the open-air patio and let my boyfriend pick some ciders for a cider flight to drink outside. Unfortunately, when he asked what they had, the server just tacitly handed him a menu, not also telling him that he also had the option of including the many seasonal offerings up on the wall list. As a result, he did not pick the ciders that we wanted to try. I have to speak specifically about the rudeness of the server. I understand that dogs aren't allowed but there was not a reason to be rude. This was a special visit from out-of-town for my boyfriend and he ended up having a very negative experience. The server didn't engage with us whatsoever. When I went in later to buy some packs to take home, he was short with me. This isn't the level of service that I expect from a local craft business. We love your products and probably would have bought twice as much cider to go if you had been willing to speak to us about your ciders. Very disappointing. read more

I came with my friends here the other day and we had a great time! We wanted to try the different ciders so we each got a flight of 4 ciders. I tried the Honey Crisp, Sweet Lou's, Homestead Peach, and Strawberry Lemonade ciders. My favorites were the Honey Crisp and Homestead Peach but the other two were good too. I wasn't too hungry so I just had fries which I thought were addicting! My friends seemed to enjoy their entrees. The inside and outside of the restaurant is great with seating in both areas. Our server was amazing, he was attentive, funny, and caring - we saw him bring an umbrella out for a couple sitting in the rain with their dog! Such great service and I found out they have a rewards system too which you can sign up for in person when you receive the check. Excited to add another place to my Yelp collection of places I like in STL! read more

Brick River Cider - Pulled pork Sammy, Brussels sprouts, and their flagship cider - Cideries Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

We live in the area and are trying to make more of an effort to eat at local spots. We needed a date night and wanted a brewery feel, so we ended up here. We came in on a Sunday night and it was pretty dead. Maybe 2-3 groups. They had one guy working the bar and serving but it was fine since they weren't busy. We sat at the bar and got fantastic service all night including great conversation. It's really cool to see straight back into their production room. We got two flights so we're able to try almost everything on the menu - we were impressed. There's definitely two that we loved, but there's something for everyone: sweet, dry, tart, fruity, floral. They do a great job of having many different options. The food wasn't super fancy but it was fantastic. Fries, chicken sandwich, brisket Mac. We weren't unhappy with any of it, it was all great. We thought for sure we would have leftovers but it was so good we couldn't stop eating it haha! Great experience for us, we will definitely be back. read more

Super cool historic building at the end of Wash Ave near the soccer stadium. Small little patio and industrial lofty decor indoors. Huge cider menu, had a flight and a pumpkin spice drink with my husband. So delicious. They have sweet stuff and dry stuff, so every palate is covered. Also, they have a lot of gluten free options, which is nice. Bartender took such good care of us. Explained everything, remembered that we met her at a sampling earlier that week. Felt right at home! Absolutely will be back! Can't wait to try their brunch. read more

The cider from this little brewery is delicious! I first tried their cider at Busch Stadium and had to find their location. They offer lots of different kinds of cider flavors all are very good. They use locally sourced apples and they have a restaurant on site as well. The customer service is great which is a nice bonus. I have not tried the food yet but I did purchase two growlers worth of their cider. When these are empty, I will be back for a refill and try the food. read more

Stopped by to celebrate Downtown STL Restaurant Week. The unique addition for the week is $3.00 single and $5.00 double Smash Burgers! Absolutely fantastic! A side of fries is a must. This meal paired well with a cider. I enjoyed the Cornerstone and sipped on the Mission Mango which was a different approach, the mango with chiles. I must say it is a good spin to the cider. It is always a nice atmosphere eating in a former engine house! read more

I had a lovely evening at Brick River Cider during their annual Ciderfest. I enjoyed a flight of 4 ciders and selected the Homestead, Homestead peach, Honeycrisp apple, and Hopricot (a brand new cider option!). The Homestead peach was easily my favorite. It was sweet, crisp, and perfectly peachy. We enjoyed some live music for Ciderfest and sat outside on the patio. The patio had a really fun table soccer game to enjoy and the cidery garage door was open, so we could easily enjoy the live music playing inside. We did attempt to order several food dishes, but they were out of many food options after the busy day of Ciderfest. We ended up getting French fries which were not good at all. They were incredibly soggy and weren't salted. We also tried the champignon flatbread, substituted with tomatoes instead of mushrooms because they were all out. The flatbread was also disappointing. I'm giving a 4 star review because of the lovely atmosphere and delicious cider flight I got at Brick River. However, I probably would not order food if I went again! read more

A nice place in downtown STL to try a variety of ciders. It has an industrial feel , but very welcoming. When we stopped in they have a special buy one flight get one free, a great deal.

My friend made a reservation at Brick River Cider because there was a big group of us meeting to celebrate. I had never been here and was excited to try it because I have a gluten allergy and their website stated that everything on the menu could be made gluten free. I will start with the good. The building looked to be an old fire house, which I loved, and the decor was nice. The ciders were great! I had a flight. Their deep fryer and waffle maker are dedicated gluten free. Most of the food was good. I had the deviled eggs and chicken and waffles. The eggs and waffles were great but my chicken was overcooked and dry. My husband had the cider-brined wings and Brick River smash burger and he said they were good. Now for the bad. Our party arrived at different times and they did not accommodate our large group (that there was a reservation for). Our server, who never told us his name, was extremely rude to all of us. We are a nice group and we were never mean or rude to him so I don't know why he acted the way he did. I don't know if he has never taken care of a group of people but if he couldn't handle it, he should have asked for help. We also tried to get him to split the orders as we were ordering and he said we would just do it at the end. However, he messed up the bill and tried to blame us. There were several other things that happened and my shock at his disrespectfulness made me forget to take pictures of the rest of our food. The poor service is the reason for the 3 star review. I almost did 2 stars because, to me, service is everything. Based on the service, I don't know if I will go back. read more

Place all food orders at the bar then find a table. They will give you a number and bring it out to you. I tried the new Hopricot India Pale Cider. I did not really care for the taste of it....it was definitely more ale tasting than cider. I tried my boyfriend's Autumn Spice cider and it was really good. I had the Orchard Grilled Sandwich with a side of Brussel sprouts. I think the sandwich could have had more apple butter and Gouda cheese. They have a "cocktail of the month" and also flights. They have board games available if you have a group of people and want to play. Also there is lots of seating upstairs, so don't be fooled if it looks crowded downstairs. There is a second bathroom upstairs if the downstairs ones have lines. read more

I was searching for a restaurant that had a decent gluten free menu. Black River Cider popped up. There were several reviews that had something to say about the gluten free chicken and waffles. They did not disappoint! The chicken was crispy and juicy! The flavor was exceptional! My husband had their Brick River burger with garlic fries. He the burger was fantastic. The garlic fries were really tasty as well. Their chicken wings are to die for! The best I've ever had! Our server was super nice and extremely knowledgeable about the gluten free items and their ciders. 10/10 I would definitely recommend them. I have found my new favorite place to eat! read more

I love coming here! Their ciders are so good and I love how they have a BOGO during happy hour! This is an easy way to get 2 flights and try all of the ciders they have on tap. Also, on this last visit, I tried their macaroni and cheese which was excellent! I wish I took a photo, but I was too hungry and I ate it all. We also tried fries and some other apps. And overall, the group I was with was very happy with their drinks and snacks. I like how they have added some board games to their shelves so that you can just hang out and play some games which enjoying a night out. read more

I really wanted to love the cider at Brick River because it's the only specifically cider place in STL. I am super excited that it exists. That said, all the ciders have a taste to them that I'm not a big fan of - I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, maybe it's the tartness. Not that they are bad by any means - they are quality ciders nonetheless. Sweet Lou is my favorite. The space is nice, but small. There is an outdoor area now too. Service has always been good. Disclaimer is that I haven't tried the food (yet) but it smells pretty good in there! read more

A fantastic find not far from the soccer stadium! Went for lunch today. Wonderfully eclectic options on the menu, ranging from portobello sandwiches to pulled pork mac & cheese to a deviled egg platter (which can be served topped with pulled pork). I had the Texas flatbread - flatbread, bbq sauce, cheese, pulled pork and delightfully candied japaleno slices. They do their own pulled pork in house - lean and flavorful. Entrees and "shareables" around $15 and less And they also have a terrific selection of their own hard apple ciders - they offered us samples of three, all great! Clean and comfortable dining room, multiple tvs and board games, patio Dining, weekend brunch service, and friendly waitstaff A great find. We will be back to work our way down the menu. Ample street parking except on football game days, I imagine. Love it!! read more

Brick River Cider is the largest local cider brewery at St Louis. A friend and I visited during their Spring Forward event. We are thrilled they offered cheese / cider pairing and macarons/ cider pairing on top of the usual flights. In addition, live music, tours and trivia are ongoing throughout the day. Free street parking is available at the front of the building. Upon our visit, we ordered our selections at the bar. The bartender was patient in explaining all the menu items. Our favorite cider we have tried is the peach flavored one. We also enjoyed the cider brined chicken wings as well. One down side to Brick River Cider is that it gets really dead after 6pm. I felt it's preferable to come in the afternoon rather than the evenings. read more

We loved the vibe in this darling cidery! We stopped in on a Sunday night, and it was pretty quiet. The bartender/server was attentive and so nice. We had several burgers among the group, and they were all hot and fresh off the griddle. I always appreciate a hand formed patty! My husband loved the Mac and cheese. The flavors were mellow and homey, and the pulled pork leveled the dish up to make it substantial enough for a full meal! The only disappointment was the roasted Brussels sprouts. They were more steamed than crispy/fried. The flavor was just okay. Oh - and the ciders!!! Fantastic. Everything we tried was flavorful, crisp, and never too sweet. read more

Definitely one of my usual watering holes! When I want to get away from the beer, a delicious cider from here hits the spot! All the ciders (except one) is made right in house. Chris the manager is always there and is super cool. I always get the Cobb Salad with the chicken served hot on the side. Chris was already putting my order in when he saw me . Pretty slow at the time so they accommodated me with tv selections. Started to pick up as I was leaving. Great spot for food, and ciders! read more

We visited on a Saturday after a matinee performance at the Fox, and found street parking less than a block away. We came for the cider, and each had a flight. But the surprise was how good the food was, gluten free for Therese H. Chicken, fries, waffles, deviled eggs, all delicious. I suppose taste in cider is a personal thing, but I'll add that I found the Sweet Lou to be the best of the day, worthy of a growler to take home. Great service, great food, great cider. Thanks, BRC! read more

Great drinks good food and a really cool atmosphere both inside and out! Rooftop is always crowded

It was a fairly slow Friday night. I was surprised to see most of the tables were open. Our waitress came over right away and was VERY accommodating and engaging with our 4-year old son which is always appreciated. We ordered a cider for me, my wife was unsure if she wanted one or not and the server brought out several shot glasses for her to try. The turnaround out of the kitchen was really slow. Which was a bummer since we were hungry. The spinach dip appetizer probably took 15+ minutes. It was well over 45 minute for the dinner order to arrive, 2 different flatbreads, a grilled cheese for my son, and a burger with Brussels sprouts for me. The first to arrive was the grilled cheese and fries, which looked good The mushroom flatbread was next and immediately we identified it was way over-cooked. The top was very dark and the crust was black. The bbq flatbread was next and similarly overcooked. Burger was fine. The brussels were a bit mushy and oily, but flavor was alright. All in all, a negative experience. Sorry BRCC. UPDATE! Spoke to the server on the way out and she informed us (with apologies) that the cook working in the kitchen was having a very bad night. So I'm going to chalk this up as a one-off. Will give them another shot in the future. read more

With so many great craft breweries in the city, it was exciting to discover a local craft cidery. The location, just slightly west of downtown and slightly north of Union Station, is a convenient spot for out-of-town visitors to experience something refreshing and unique when STL. We had the chance to try all eight ciders across two flights - I enjoyed the Revival Rye as an imperial stout and whiskey fan, the Homestead Cider is sweet and delicious for all palate, and Cornerstone is definitely worth sampling. Besides great ciders, the food options also stand out - I greatly enjoyed the taste and light texture of my Ozark Forest Flatbread and the combination of melted brie and sourdough for the Normandy Grilled Cheese was also an absolutely delicious bite to sample. I appreciate having a new local option to bring those who'd enjoy a drink after a week at work, but don't have a taste for beer. Brick River Cider is definitely worth checking out, and I hope to return sometime soon. read more

As someone that is restricted to gluten free options due to allergies I have to say this is a strong go-to for foods normally off limits. This is not my first or my last trip here. The industrial setting is very much a modern day brewery. No wait, several screens for sports, quick and accurate service with a smile, good food, and all of their ciders are gluten free (I believe) with a variety of flavors. A past favorite is gluten free chicken and waffles! They also offer all of their burgers, some pasta and flatbreads, wings and dessert for others with dietary restrictions. They are reasonably priced, no frills, and tasty! The only thing I'd change is soft drinks on tap as they only offer cans or have thus far. read more
