    Terrific mural at the Locust Cider Gig Harbor
    Margaret C.

    First time here on a lovely summer afternoon. It's a small indoor space, mostly taken up with the bar featuring taps of all their cider flavors. Very friendly and efficient bartender. If you choose a flight, you select six flavors, and they placed them on the board in the order of your written list for reference. Three of us split two flights and enjoyed discussing all the different flavors. Highlights were vanilla, honey pear, peach, watermelon, elder sage, and "Transfusion". Only one of the 12 that we all didn't care for - I won't name it, because it is probably someone else's favorite! We were in the shaded patio around the back, peaceful and could still hear the live music nearby. Will love to come again and try all the flavors!

    I am a Locust swarm member and it's the best! I'm bummed that the Tacoma location closed, but I did make my way to Gig Harbor and they are always friendly and have fantastic cider! Also, Nintendo inside and a nice outdoor area to sit and enjoy the sun.

    Great spot! Awesome location and service. Also, tons of games for kids and adults. Kitchen is closed for the moment but opening again soon.

    What a fun place! Had 14 Cider's on tap and the hostesses recommendation was spot on! Can order food via app and pick up at the outside window, choice of indoor or outdoor seating. Inside, downstairs you'll find a fun arcade style room fun for the whole family!

    I love locust cider and I love Yelp!

    Locust Cider has a special place In my heart for sure. The staff are always so welcoming and kind that it just makes this location feel like home. During our most recent visit, it was a semi warm summer day, where we ordered flights and sat in the outdoor area just next to 7 Seas. They have the corn hole (bean bag toss) game available and several table and chair sets that are shared between the two breweries. It nice and shady for a warm day or they have fire outs for those colder evenings. The cider here is one of my favs in the PNW. They mix very well to bring about even more flavors that the loads they have available. I highly recommend pairing the juicy peach with the vanilla bean for an explosively stellar flavor that will have you craving more.

    The event aside - This Locust Cider seems like a nice little retreat in the area be it outside or inside. Appropriately located just outside of The Inn, hotel. It's right there, perfect if you're staying there if you want a quick a few sips without having to go far. Literally, just outside the front door Locust is like 200 ft. Away. This Locust Cider's staff were very friendly during the recent event here and gladly gave recommendations and samples. One staff even recommended mixing some ciders for additional flavor. The setting has a very new look. I was told this Locust recently took over another brewery and before that one there was another brewery so this building is built to be a brewery it seems. It's fairly spacious with a kind of intimate main floor, bench seating in the brewery room downstairs and more outdoor seating. They even have video games - an NES and SNES classic as well as some board games to play while you sip. I recommend the Honey pear or pineapple if you're like me and like sweet. But if you like more dry, the original crisp is a bet. Plenty of variety overall which is good.

    Loved visiting this spot! Their cider flights are great because you can choose from their variety of flavors. They have plenty of seating indoor and outdoor with an overall laidback vibe. The bartender was friendly and provided valuable information when I was picking out my flavors. I loved that they offer growlers/cans for purchase & to take home too! Hope to visit again soon!

    So many great things don't know where to begin! First off, this is my favorite cider company out in the local PNW area. This location is in the back behind some other commercial buildings, but let me tell you how perfect it is! Super cute outdoor seating area and music ( that wasn't too loud!) and the service was immaculate. Brittany was friendly, responsive, and also gave us fun mixing tips! Definitely recommend for a nice chill time!

    Gotta try the mojito and cold pressed apple :)

    Came here for a yelp event and I had a flight tasting menu for 4 different ciders. I really liked the cold pressed apple and the mojito. The place is clean and the staff were friendly and happy to answer any questions also bonus they have classic Nintendo!

    What an amazing experience we had! First the staff were phenomenal, attentive while great at suggesting ciders or pairing of two flavors. They were very friendly to everyone and seemed to really enjoy their jobs. Second, the flavors were awesome. Toss up of which combo was my favorite, the mojito with the pineapple or the pineapple with the heat. They had a great outdoor area set up as well as Nintendo set up inside. Such a fun experience for a hidden gem.

    Ask the Community - Locust Cider

    Me and a friend to come here later this month or next month and sit outside drinking ciders and paint canvases. Would we be allowed to do that ? I plan to bring tarps to put down to ensure we don't make a mess on their tables.

    Sure!

    There wasn't one that I didn't like, but my favorites were the vanilla bean and honey pear, hands down.

There is often a food truck, so if you don't mind that kind of setup there is at least food available across the lot. No servers or bussers as far as I noticed, so you get your own stuff and clean up after. Also no bar, just beer and wine. And I have had Seven Seas beers many times, and haven't really found one I would go back for. Lots of people love their beer, I'm not saying it's bad! Just not for me. Service is minimal at best. In the times I have been there, it's been one beertender, no service at your table and service at the bar has been less than great. Not particularly friendly, just .... there. If you've never been, I'd recommend checking it out for the experience. But the Tides is also right there and in my opinion such a better experience. Also parking is VERY limited, so you may have to park a block or two away.

Hop Pharm serves guest taps of craft beer... they don't make their own beer it would appear. There are lots of good, local breweries on tap when we were here and we liked the options to pick from. From what I understand the tap list rotates out fairly frequently so the variety is always changing which I appreciate. Hop Pharm also has beer in cans for sale in a refrigerator that you can purchase. But we wanted to hang out here and chill rather than do a "to go" purchase. We liked the clean, sleek atmosphere that this place brought and the covered patio is quite nice. We were considering going outside to enjoy our beer but it is Spring and it can be a bit nippy still to sit outside for too long and so we went inside so we could stay warm. Some breweries we had from the current tap list was from Bizarre Brewing ( it was the In Some Far Place which is is an Extra Pale Ale) and from Stemma Brewing( we had the First Amber which is a Red Ale). Both of those breweries are favorites of mine so it was great to drink beers that I haven't previously tried from them. Steve and I met up with a friend and Hop Pharm proved to be a great place to catch up as it wasn't too loud or crowded and we could visit without shouting which was very, very nice and refreshing. The guy that was serving the beers was very nice and I complimented him on his Warrant t-shirt( a hair metal band). Despite being punk and alternative I still like some hair metal bands that take me back to adolescence.
