My husband and I split the nachos, and I ordered the tomato bisque and grilled cheese. The nachos were HUGE - like 6 people could have easily shared them - but they were so good, completely loaded with cheese, salsa, pickled onions and jalapenos, beans, and grilled chicken. We barely put a dent in them but not for lack of trying. The grilled cheese and soup were also really tasty. I wish I was less full and able to enjoy it more. Our server was great, and the outside area is lovely. I definitely want to try more of their alcoholic options, and other food options, next time I am in the area.

She did a good job of managing several tables' needs. -Philly cheesesteak was pretty good, I'd give it a 6/10 -truffle fries were DELICIOUS. Very garlic-y in the best way -chili cheese fries were good Only complaint: -my friend wasn't a fan of the brisket grilled cheese bc she said the brisket was a little too fatty and not the 'melt in your mouth' kind of fat, but 'chewy hard to swallow' kind of fat Overall good experience!

There is a huge sandbox for the kiddos, there's a covered patio to have a few cold ones with signs that remind us all that "Wu-Tang is for the Children", and there is another sitting area at the bottom of the hill by a gorgeous creek. Although I wouldn't recommend carrying a flight down there. Inside there are maybe 8 beers on tap ( I can't remember) but I got a flight that consisted of a Vienna Lager, a Mexican Lager, a Hefe, and a Chapter 2 IPA. All of the beers were solid, but I think the Philadelphia Vienna Lager was my favorite. There was a food menu but wasn't hungry at the time. There were also beer slushies and other items for those who don't drink beer. The service was friendly. My only complaint would be the flight boards are a little flimsy for those tall flight glasses. I almost lost mine before getting to the table.

The outdoor…read morespace is still beautiful and makes for a nice place to relax with a drink, but the dining experience fell well short of expectations. We visited around 3:00 p.m., well before the dinner rush, so we weren't expecting service delays or other issues. Unfortunately, the food was bland, overly oily, and significantly overpriced for the quality. We used to come here regularly and always enjoyed it, but it just isn't what it once was. The dining area was also uncomfortably warm, as the air conditioning didn't appear to be on. The only relief came when the kitchen door opened. Service felt rushed and impersonal as well--we were greeted with a curt "Where do you want this plate?" when our food arrived, which didn't make us feel particularly welcome. The property itself remains a lovely place to spend some time outdoors, but based on this visit, we wouldn't recommend it as a destination for dinner. We hope the restaurant can return to the level of quality and hospitality it once offered.

The staff is friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help you find a cider you will love. Their cider lineup is fantastic--flavorful, well-balanced, and clearly made with care. There's always something new or seasonal to try, and the tasting experience is fun without ever feeling rushed. It's the kind of place where you want to sit, relax, and stay awhile. Blue Toad has a great atmosphere for groups, families, or just a casual afternoon out. Between the views, the drinks, and the easygoing vibe, it's truly one of Roseland's best spots. Highly recommend stopping by if you're exploring Nelson County or looking for a perfect weekend destination.

The setting was exceptional: perched beside the cidery with a pasture stretching out nearby, it had that perfect mix of open space and laid-back charm. For a first outing, I don't have much to compare it to, but it's hard to imagine a better start. Connectivity was surprisingly excellent--we were pulling 5G UW, which felt like a small miracle and made everything easier. The location couldn't have been more convenient, with trails, venues, and restaurants all close at hand. The cidery itself offered around two dozen options, and the Imperial Peach quickly became our go-to libation. And yes, they've got a happy hour at the cidery--and you already know that's my favorite time of day. Within three miles, you've got IGA, the ABC store, and Beltie's, while Devil's Backbone sits right across the street. The on-site BBQ Beast delivered exactly what you'd hope for--no surprises, just solid, satisfying fare. We lucked into something special during our stay, landing right in the middle of a migration path. One morning alone brought the sights and sounds of over 25 bird species--nature putting on a full show. All told, it's a fantastic place to boondock. We enjoyed it enough to tack on an extra night, which says plenty. Here's hoping the rest of our adventures measure

The patties are pre-formed and you can choose from a variety of cheese to have on your burger. The toppings on the burger were very fresh. The burgers were topped with nice leaf lettuce and a red tomato. I was very pleased with the tomato! It comes with a pickle on the side too! They make homemade potato chips to go along with your burger. There are several items you can choose from to go with your burger in lieu of the homemade chips such as fries, tots, onion rings, etc. Since the fries are not hand cut, I prefer the tater tots. They were very good. Wishing the river would consider hand-patted burgers and hand-cut fries with options to have on the side such as a special signature sauce, aioli, parmesan topping, truffle topping, etc. This would knock it out of the park!
