    chocolate tasting
    Roxanne H.

    Everything here was so on point! The cider is delicious, nice and strong for what it is, and a great value. They have a food booth here that serves hot dogs, burgers, chicken, etc which was super convenient to have under the same roof. They offered a chocolate tasting which was so so good! Plenty of seating both inside and out, and dog friendly! Only one bathroom but better than nothing. Came during March and there was no lines or wait for anything. The vibes inside are so cute and the people working are very friendly. A perfect day!

    We were so exhausted from walking through town. We stumbled into Julian hard cider So thirsty .. We were pleasantly surprised by the flight of insiders that came in these super fun muffin tins. The cider were delicious. They were refreshing. They were flavorful. We almost went back for seconds, but then we realized we needed to get on the road. They were so fun. They have a gorgeous indoor area as well as a patio with huge trees. In the back of this cider shop, our other shops and a play area for kids or just hanging out. It was really quite something , our guess is that the locals absolutely love it You can either hit this place on your way in to Julien or you can catch it on the way out like we did . Either way you're gonna be so happy you did.

    We stopped by Julian Hard Cider after an afternoon in town grabbing pie. It was nice to get out of the chaos that is downtown on a weekend. This cider co is in a building with a few different vendors - there's some antique shops, boutiques, and an old timey bar. It's a really cool spot to walk around in. We got the cider flight to try a bunch which was definitely the call, and more than enough for the two of us (beware elevation effects). They even gave us some pretzels on the side. Would definitely recommend!

    Great place! I got the cider flight which was $18 and had 6 different small cups to try. I like all of them! They also have a pizza stand outside to purchase food. I enjoyed the live music and the vibes!

    We stopped by a week and a half ago because my mom talked this place up. It has such a chill vibe, the bartender was nice, and the hard cider is delicious. They have several flavors to choose from, my favorite was the blueberry one. I even brought a pack home and my only regret is not buying more.

    Such a cool place to check out! It was a slightly cold rainy day but decided to take a drive up to Julian. We were looking for somewhere to get some cider which is my favorite alcoholic beverage. When we got here we were greeted and took a look at the menu. We decided to get a flight of ciders to try and got my nephew a hot apple cider. They have so many kinds to try. They have some classic ciders but also some very original ciders. We had a fun time trying the flight of six but also wanted to try a couple more so I went back and purchased a couple more cups of individual ones. We each walked out with a pint to take home and grabbed a few apple ciders for a morning treat. A very cool space to spend some time. I would absolutely recommend a stop in!

    Jillian Hard Cider is such a hidden gem in Julian! I instantly loved how open and spacious it felt--like a mix between a western town throwback and a super cute public market. The little boutiques and shops inside are adorable, and the whole place has this old-timey ambience that makes you feel like you've stepped back in time (in the best way). My favorite part? The arcade section with the pool table! It's such a fun touch and makes it more than just a cider spot. They even have a food section with smash burgers, seriously sooo good. And of course, the cider tasting room itself is amazing, with tons of flavor options to try. But the real showstopper is the patio deck. The view is absolutely stunning....I'm talking "you could host a wedding here" level gorgeous. Perfect for hanging out, sipping cider, and soaking in Julian's charm. Only tiny downside: no AC, so it can get a bit warm in summer. But honestly, it just makes me want to come back in the winter to enjoy the cozy vibes even more. All in all, it's such a fun, unique spot. Amazing cider, great food, western charm, and one of the best patios ever. I'll definitely be back!

    This is a must visit when your in the Julian area and a hard cider fan. They have all their flavors on tap in addition to seasonal ones. The seasonal one I get in the growler is the caramel apple around fall. They also have great merch too. They have seating areas inside and out and there is a large collection of military, police, fire, ems patches on the wall. I donated one years ago. Friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. Check it out the next time your up there.

    My husband and I love this spot the vibes are great super family or big group friendly I love that you can be indoors or outdoors and we love to do the flights the service is great too only bummer is the hours! But all in all we will continue coming to this spot and enjoying the cider!

    I'm not a very social person. I'm a little shy. Especially in an environment I'm not used to. Sam really went out of her way to make sure that I felt comfortable. No giant loud hello, no in your face questions that feels too personal. Just kindness and Grace. As a little bit of an introvert, I really appreciated her careful approach. I will be returning again during a bachelorette weekend. And Sam is definitely who we are going to be looking for. What a great cider house! Thank you for having someone for everyone!

    Such a quaint little spot on your way in or out of Julian. Theres plenty to do in this plaza. I saw a beer tasting area, wine tastings, multiple stores, and even a kids play area. We stopped in for a hard cider tasting which just hit the spot. All the flavors offered in the $18 tasting of six different ciders were all unique but insanely flavorful. I especially loved the mint/lime and apple pie cider, so refreshing and tasty. Theres plenty of parking and seating spread out all over. You can chill out on couches and watch your kids play or even sit by the fire outside under lights.

    Had such a fun time doing the flights of hard apple cider. We did the original and specialty flights that come with 6 flavors and then some pretzels. We sat outside on the patio at some tables which was nice. The hard cider was fun although I think I like classic flavors more personally.

    We love this place and come here every time were passing through Julian! Friendly staff, good vibes…read moreand great beer selection-- The Stonewall Stout is the bomb! and loved the wet hop IPA selection. Dont know who the brewer is but seems to really love the craft - just look at the description of their Violet IPA: "Brewed with my best friend Brandon Hernandez of SD Beer News in honor of his late Grandmother. Made with Butterfly Pea Flowers with Topaz, Strata, Simoce and Mosaic hops". You wouldn't find this at most larger, non independent breweries!

    We've been going here, infrequently, for 10+ years. It's a low key place to grab some tasty beers…read moreat a decent price, and maybe a bite to eat. Most recently, we visited on a Saturday afternoon and were pleased to see Ay Mamma Tacoz ready to serve. Excellent street tacos to wash down the cold beer. So about the beer selection, always plenty of options. Always something new to try. What caught our eye on this visit was the wording on the menu. They had SEVERAL flavors listed as "GR". Turns out that stands for Gluten Reduced. This is huge for us as one of us can't enjoy regular beer due to gluten intolerance. If you happen to be someone with a gluten allergy, but can tolerate some gluten ... Give it a try. Nothing better on a hot day than a cold beer. (They also carry a GF cider or two if beer isn't your thing.) A tip for the fair-skinned is to bring some kind of covering if sitting outside. The sun beats down some days and there is very limited shade. An hour outside in the sun can mean a painful night later. I give it 5 stars because my expectations are realistic. It's not fancy, but it's welcoming, fun and convenient if you're in the area. Worth a try if you've never been.
