Stumbled in here as I was meeting a friend next door. I bought a mixed 4-pk. Customer service was great. The interior of this place is very spacious and offers a relaxing environment. They do have a large outdoor area to sit at as well. As for the cider drinks I bought...they are possibly the healthiest of cider drinks I've ever had. The flavor profile was pretty tamed. Nothing in the drinks for me really makes me want to come back here again. So the drinks weren't for me, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try them out yourself. read more

What a cute little hidden gem. We just happened to be passing through the area and got a chance to pop into the fermentation house. I immediately wanted to stay because it felt so inviting; however, we had to run. They didn't have 2 of the ciders we wanted to try on tap, so we ended up taking them home with us in a can. So far, the cucumber-ginger and pineapple-habanero are really refreshing. I wish the latter had more of a kick, though. read more

Anna's a great edition to Santa Paula that began during the covid pandemic. It's a friendly place with live music on the weekends. You can sit outside on the expansive patio or inside, where it's friendly and comfortable. There are about 5-10 taps that include a variety of their ciders or rotating local beer taps. I really liked the habanero cider, it's a delicious straight forward cider with a bit of a kick. However, it was their wine that really spoke to me. I like their reds, I tried two on my last visit. You can expect to pay about $7-8 per drink. And order some food from next door at Gunsmoke BBQ or the food trucks that pull right up to the patio, if they are hosting food trucks when you visit. Make a full night of it. You won't regret the choice. See their Instagram for photos and more details. Be sure to note hours before you go. Parking in small lot and on street. read more

Fermentation House - a patio with tables and chairs - Breweries Near Me - Santa Paula, California

Down Main Street of Santa Paula on the corner you'll find Anna's Cider. It's a small little building with a good size patio. On cold days they have fire pits and space heaters to stay warm. There's farmer markets on Saturdays and they host different events throughout the year. I passed by this place the last time I was in SP but never stopped in. And since I've been wanting to try this place out, I recruited my niece and sis to come with. Now we planned on coming here before we knew it was gonna rain so we made the most out of this night. We walked in and had a few options to choose from. You're allowed to try before you buy here and my niece and I both liked the Rosé so we opted for the pitcher $15 rather then a $6 glass. It was lightly sweetened which is what I liked and you can just sip on it and enjoy your time there. My sis got a mango one with tajin on the outside, she said it was ok but wasn't that impressed with it. I'm curious to try the other flavors next time I'm around the area. They also have beer and wine as well as jungle tea if you're not into cider. Everything is locally crafted too! read more

Ever since hearing about Anna's Cider, I have wanted to visit it. I love a good cider, and I feel like there's not enough places that craft their own. First off, love the location. Right on a corner on Main Street in Santa Paula, they have a much larger space than I was expecting. The inside is decently large with plenty of comfortable indoor seating. They also have a large patio area with picnic tables and heaters - perfect for larger gatherings. And they're dog friendly! They had six ciders on tap when we visited. They offer a build your own cider flight for $12 and you pick four of the ciders, or you can grab a glass for $6-8. I built my own flight and tried the Hazy Dry, Rosé, Mango Tajin, and their seasonal Tepache. All the flavors were good - the Rosé was surprisingly my favorite - but all the flavors seemed a bit muted for me. I'd have liked it if there was a bit stronger flavor with a tad more carbonation. But still delicious! They also have their own wines here, and I can't wait to come back to give them a try. I wish they offered some kind of food here - even if they sold just small snacks to go with the ciders. They do allow you to bring/order in your own food, but just being able to pick up some simple cheese and crackers or chips when you order would make the experience better. Overall, a fun place to visit with friends and enjoy their tasty ciders. read more

I always love supporting local venues! This place is a gem to visit! The cidery, not only features ciders, but has their own wine featured in some Ventura county restaurants, like rum fish in Ventura. The cidery always has their traditional ciders: rose and their dry apple cider on tap with rotating other ciders! Both ciders and wine can be purchased to go! The location has both outdoor and indoor seating! And the venue host a variety of food nights, as unfortunately no restaurant is on site, so bring a snack or stop in on a foodie night. Also, a Great place to bring a dog if you plan to sit outside. Check out their calendar for events and stop in for a drink or two!!!! read more

I have tried Anna's Cider at festivals and have bought their product at Whole Foods. I was happy to stop by at this cool spot! My friends and I loved it. We all ordered flights. I enjoyed all the flavors I got - Mango, Tepache, Ciderita, and Rose. My least favorite was probably the Ciderita. Great customer service. There was only one cashier but he was friendly and it really wasn't busy today. Chill spot with plenty of seating. So much space outside. I think I saw a fireplace. I can imagine how fun it will be once it's warmer. read more

First timer visiting all the way from Orange County the service by Serenity is one of a kind. The wine was high end and spectacular, Serenity knew exactly what I was looking for. I asked her how long she had been bartending here and she said 5 yrs bc she knew exactly what I wanted and SHE NEEDS A RAISE. People like this don't come around as employees and compensating her will keep her working as hard as she is! God bless you Serenity thank you for making my first time so spectacular read more

The place is really dirty and a dump. Low class joint at most. Weird hours.Cider isn't good at all. Someone had puked outside the tasting room on the concrete and it was never cleaned up for months,finally the rain came along and washed it down but you could visibly still see it. When I first visited they were called Anna's cider,recently they changed the name to Fermentation House, nobody knows why. The furniture looks grimy and uncleaned and most likely bed bugs inside the couch! I've been there numerous times and to only see that nothing had been cleaned. Not the kind of place I'd recommend to anyone! Go to the Draft or Santa Paula cellars if you want to have a clean environment to enjoy a drink! read more

My husband loves cider so we knew when we moved over here we had to try Anna's. It's a cute little spot. The bartender was really friendly. When we were ordering there were even guests who recommended drinks. We enjoyed the drinks. Not our favorite, but good. We didn't try all the flavors so we will go back to try the rest and also take family who come visit. read more

I loved this Cider place! It's located in cute and quiet Santa Paula and had great tasting ciders. It has outdoor seating and indoor seating. Prices were reasonable. We tried the sampler which had 4 cider options for 12$. They have two fireplace table outside but one wasn't working because it didn't have propane. My favorite was the mango! I will have to return shortly! Would recommend 10/10. read more

Im honored that my 500th Yelp review goes to Anna's Ciders. Anna's Ciders is FANTASTIC. A hidden gem honestly, as I had no idea it existed until I stopped by for a local Yelp Event. Sounds like they opened not too far before covid hit and are currently fully operational with craft cider and beers on tap. The staff here are so nice. The inside is small and cozy but what I love is their large outdoor space. Their outdoor setup is lovely, plenty of seating, cool wood benches and tables, and a view of downtown Santa Paula. I'd highly recommend grabbing some food to go from nearby, picking a cider flight, and then grabbing a spot for some outdoor dining and drinks. The ciders here are absolutely fantastic. I Found out that these ciders are super light and delicious in taste, but the big bonus is they don't have all of the icky sugars and carbs compared to some of the bigger known cider brands. You know, the kind of bottled ciders that leave you with a headache and aren't so refreshing? We'll Anna's are the complete opposite. So yes, I'm telling you that your ciders can taste delicious and be reduced in carbs/sugar. WIN-WIN people. I tried a cider flight of the Hazy, Rose, Cucumber Ginger, and the Mango Tajin. My friend had almost the same flight but swapped the Cucumber for their Lemon Cider. I can honestly say all 5 Ciders (my friend let me sip hers) we're all delicious, light, and refreshing. Anna's has made me into a cider freak now. If I had to make a recommendation I would highly suggest the Mango Tajin, I found that it was the most flavorful - fruit forward profile and you can't go wrong with a Tajin Rim. For those who aren't a fan of the mild spice either ask for no rim or id highly suggest trying the Cucumber Cider. We will definitely be back and telling all our friends! So happy that Ventura County has such a stellar Cider spot. Cheers and see you soon. read more

What a great addition to downtown Santa Paula! My friend talked about them to me prior to tasting some yummy rosé cider at Surf Rodeo. I went to check it out a month ago and they had an employee tasting party. Not only accommodating but beyond hospital! Generous and it's so cute being there! Delicious spicy mango cider and lots of fun options. Cant wait to be back. You guys are so warm and sweet! read more

Santa Paula is by far my favorite little city and Anna's Cidar is one of the most recent addition that just makes me love it even more! Now I know this place isn't new but it was my first visit to their tasting room and I can say I am hooked. First and foremost the locally made ciders mixed with the small town love and support just sets it off and makes it one of my favorites. For those who don't like the coders they have locally made craft beers on tap as well as canned locally made spiked teas! I mean how can you not love that! We got the cider float with the Rose, cucumber ginger, tepache and pineapple habanero. Everyone packed with flavor and light and refreshing. read more

Since I no longer drink beer having a cidery to go to is pretty exciting - bonus that the cider is gluten free! We purchased the tasting flight. It came with 4 good sized tastings: Hazy Dry, Rose, Jalapeño Pineapple, and the rotating tap which was cucumber ginger. The hazy dry was pretty decent - it's your average cider that the big box guys push. The real stand out was the jalapeño pineapple - of the 4 of us that went we all voted the JP as number one. I'm a fan of pretty much anything cucumber, but unfortunately the flavor of the ginger was overwhelming and this was collectively the groups least favorite tasting. The outdoor area is nice, especially with such limited options in the area. Staff was friendly and prices are reasonable. We left before the live music started (bummer!) but I'd say that's a big draw in itself. read more

Fermentation House - Tasting Flight - Breweries Near Me - Santa Paula, California

I was unexpectedly in Santa Paula on a lovely Sunday afternoon, and we were looking for a spot to grab a bite and a drink after a visit to the Santa Paula Art Museum. It seemed that many of the businesses were closed at around 3:30 PM on Sunday, And of those that were open very few had outdoor seating available. We came upon Anna's(which I had heard of) and decided that even though they didn't have food it would be a great place to sit out in the afternoon sun and visit. We both got the cider sampler Which was beautifully presented on wood plank. I am not much of a cider person, But they were all quite good - I especially enjoyed the cucumber ginger. It was a bummer that they did not have food available... And also disappointing to see the staff working indoors without masks on in spite of the county wide mask mandate that was in place-otherwise it was a very pleasant surprise, and we will definitely be back! read more

Fun evening at Anna's Cider. I tried several ciders, as well as, their Farmhouse Ale. Typically I am not a big cider drinker but these were different. I tried their OG Hazy Dry, Cucumber Ginger, Mango Tajin and Pineapple Habanero. Personally the Hazy and Mango were my favorites. I could see the hype with the Pineapple Habanero but I'm personally not a spicy drink fan. The cucumber ginger was the least favorite of the group. However, if you're not a cider drinker they do have beer options. I can attest their Farmhouse Ale is delicious! Well-balanced beer with nothing overwhelming about it. Easy to drink and enjoy especially during trivia on Thursday's! read more

First time here, service was great, the girls working the bar were helpful and friendly! The ciders were so amazing! I tried their flight, and every single one was great. I couldn't even decide on a favorite. Had tacos and nachos, so fulfilling and delicious. The entertainment for the night was a band called Smokey and Friends. They had such a good vibe going! People were dancing, singing along and just having a great time! I can't wait to go back! read more

I called Anna's at 2:45pm on 01/02/2021 to see if I could order cider to pick up at 4:15pm. Anna answered and I told her my mom was staying at a nearby hotel. Even though the cidery was technically closed, she offered to drop it off at the hotel for us if we ordered through the website for delivery! Upon my arrival, she had just delivered it! Pineapple Habanero (amazing flavor with a little spice!), Honey Sage, and Hazy Dry are all fantastic! Glad we bought extra to bring home. We walked by the cidery and it is absolutely adorable! Too bad the pandemic has everything closed right now. We will have to go back when we can sit on the awesome patio! read more

This cider gives me one of the best feelings I have ever felt from an alcoholic drink. Typically when I drink ciders from other places which are overly sweet and have artificial flavors, I get a headache and feel sick. This stuff is natural, incredibly drinkable, and gives me the perfect buzz. I feel relaxed and mellow but not hazy or dull-minded. I really like the cool rustic decor of their new tasting room. The employees are chill and helpful and the owner is awesome! You can tell he takes his craft very seriously and made a product that is both drinkable and well made. I went on opening day and I've been back several times - glad to have a place like this in Santa Paula. read more

Anna's Cider was the only good thing about Santa Paula. We were met by Grace who was working outside. She was absolutely wonderful! We started by doing their tasting flight. All their ciders were delicious, but we chose the Hazy Dry for our pitcher. We also ordered the chips and guacamole which was good. After a friendly conversation with Grace, we ordered two 22oz. bottles of the Hazy Dry to take with us. read more

We went to Anna's cider in downtown Santa Paula specifically to see the Van Allen Twins playing music. We wound up ordering four of the tasters so we could try a lot of the different ciders that they make there at the cider house. It was a lot of fun and I think our favorite cider was the mango tajin and the hazy day. I definitely recommend getting the tasters so you can try all the different ones it's very interesting how different they can taste. Owned by one of the Premier wine makers in the area it's a definite must and I definitely recommend people going and trying out the cider, especially when they have live music. They have a big beautiful patio in the back where they had music which was a little cold they did have some fires going and heaters but I can imagine this would be a really fun spot to be when the weather is a little warmer. I would definitely go back read more

Cool spot that's off the beaten path. Checked it out on a Friday afternoon and there was plenty of seats. Got some good advice on the cider and enjoyed a couple glasses. Ended up taking a 4-pack of the rosé home and it tasted super fresh. Will definitely be back. read more

Let me start by saying, I love cider from all over Europe and the US, but this has to be the most bland and one dimensional cider I've Iver tried. I really wanted to like this place, but all the flavors tasted the same: watery and insipid. The staff is friendly and the place has a nice atmosphere, I just wish they would take their cider a little more seriously. You would think a winemaker would realize that just as table grapes don't make good wine, supermarket apples don't make good cider. read more

So of course me and my girl had to check out Anna's Cider a new Cider House (brewery) in Santa Paula. There was a good crowd for their grand opening weekend. Great location right on the corner of 8th and Main Streets. Loved the quaint outdoor seating with plenty of fresh air. Alcohol is a staple for me during these uncertain times and I'm willing to try anything. I have never tried their ciders and boy oh boy I was instantly sold on the Cider Rose. It quenched my thirst on a this summer ho day. I was surprised and delighted the ciders are naturally sugar free, a definite plus. If your can't make it to their locations you can always buy some online and in some stores. We will be returning to try their wine! OXOX read more

There are some unique fermented beverages to be had here. Beverages you won't find elsewhere, like pineapple-based tepache. I ordered the mango one and the habanero one. Both are neither too sweet nor too fizzy. They are unfiltered and just yeasty enough to remind you that they are the real thing. They taste like what I imagine homemade fermented beverages would have tasted like long ago, or in a tropical village on a remote island. Yummy. I will be back for more. read more

My husband and I ended up here after an impromptu trip. My husband, being English, is a bit of a cider snob and prefers ciders that are the n the drier side. This place definitely earned his stamp of approval. We tried the Hazy Dry, the Rosé, the Pineapple Habanero, and the Cucumber Ginger. All were excellent...not too sweet, but still flavorful. The fries were also super tasty. Last, but certainly not least, the service was very good. They have a good-sized outdoor seating area, but also sell cider in cans and bottles to go. If you are a fan of cider, I highly recommend you check this place out! read more

Came all the way from Camarillo to celebrate my wife's birthday with family! One of the employees with short dirty blonde hair was absolutely rude from the minute we ordered our food and drinks, to when we got our food. I observed her leaning on the counter holding her chin as an older gentleman ordered. She definitely showed that she did not want woe work or provide customer service. The service we received from her was absolutely unacceptable! The other female employee attempted to make it right for us after hearing our concerns. The business needs to provide customer service training to the employee who treated us poorly. We will not be returning to this place and hope that no one has to experience this type of customer service. read more

Cider is good, but service is horrible. first and last time for me today. as I was doing through their menu, I asked the girl (blonde, colored eyes) behind the counter how spicy was their pineapple habanero cider was, she looked at me annoyed and responded "i don't know what's spicy to you!" I was taking aback by her response. i froze and then asked about their pixie cider and she just said "it's good, when it's gone is gone". I still ordered some to go. But will not go back. I can get cheaper cider and better customer service at Trader Joe's. Sad, because I'm local and like to support local business, but this one is off my list. read more
