We made it out one last time this season to the Cider Mill. At the end of November when you stop in, it is usually way less busy and it definitely was nice to not wait in line outside to get in. However, there is less products inside so that's the trade off. We were still able to get all the favorites. We got a dozen of the cider donuts and they were absolutely delicious as always. We also stocked up on apple cider and even picked up some of the last jars of jam and pancake mix. It was nice to have the whole place essentially to ourselves to end the season. We also had some slushies and coffees as well which was a nice cheers to next year when we will go to opening day again. read more

I ordered a pie for Christmas and they gave me the wrong one and the woman who took my order over the phone got it wrong and the baker was a asshole treating people as if your bothering them slapping pies in a box to go. I came in from Niagara Falls planning h on bringing the pie for dessert but that didn't happen because the incompetent people presently there don't care for the customers in which in fact if your in the hospitality industry, "the customer is always right. .....well not at Mayer bro. They are boycotted now. I won't even drink thief apple juice next fall. read more

The first of my fall festivities! Every year we have to make a stop here for cider and donuts. We got a 1/2 dozen donuts, and I love that they have vanilla donuts and apple donuts. I LOVE the apple donuts. The cream cheese one is delicious. The staff works hard to get the lines moving quickly. They have a lot of items to pick from in the shop like jams, applesauces, caramel apples, etc. I always have to get a gallon of cider and a cider slushie to go. read more

This is my family's favorite place!! We moved away from Buffalo a couple of years ago, but we make it a priority to visit Mayor Bros whenever we are up North! You cannot get better than their donuts and cider! I get homesick for Buffalo, when I think about having one of their donuts! So delicious! We have tried different cider mills across the country, but none compare! If you are thinking about visiting, please do! You won't regret it! Some of my best Fall Memories are about eating Mayor Bros with my family! Such an iconic place! read more

I'm counting down the days every summer/fall when it is finally cider and donut season at Mayer Bros Cider Mill! They'll have long lines all season long, but the line moves quickly and it is always worth the wait. The apple cider donuts are the best and I can't get enough of them! I'm dreaming of them in the off season. read more

Walk into a working bakery with devine aroma of apples and cinnamon. Purchased cider donuts, apple pie, cheeses and an apple cider slushy. So good. Disappointed in their fresh apple selection. read more

The line today extended around the bend. It took us 20 minutes to get inside. We got some donuts and the cider. You can't beat their apple cider. They also do a good job with their donuts. I don't think it's worth the wait to get in and you have to wait another 20 minutes to check out. read more

Donuts are heavy flat and tasteless. Need to hire more intelligent people who can actually count to three when you want three donuts. I asked for three gave three specific ones I wanted, and she only gave me two. Not what I wanted. And of course I got charged for three. This place is overpriced and overrated. Skip it! Save your money. And by the way, the cider is not good. Tastes like it is diluted. Go elsewhere, this place has gotten too big for their own good. read more

They are a cider mill I know this business for a long time they only use to make apple cider and deliver Mayer Brothers spring water and now their business is booming now they make and sell products different types of maple syrup to maple doughnuts and apple cinnamon doughnuts they deliver and Mail them as well read more

Only 3 because each time I've come here my cider slushie has been different. First time the cider slushie was perfect in regards to consistency. My 2nd time this season, I was pretty much handed a cup of cider as the place was so busy hay the cider didn't have a chance to get to the temp it needed to become slush. 3rd time the cider came out of the machine so thick that it looked like it was soft serve ice cream and the woman only filled my cup 3/4 of the way until I asked for it to be filled. It's a nice place with an old fashioned charm, but the cider slushie situation has me thinking I won't be back until next season. read more

The early presses of Mayer Brothers Gala apple cider are delicious! It's definitely worth patronizing this family owned business, which has expanded through the years. There's a reason the lines are long. The wait is well worth it! read more

Every time I come here I say "why don't we come here more often?" And then I buy two dozen donuts and realize - oh yeah, that's why. I am admittedly NOT a donut person, but somehow this place manages to make me into one. As someone who doesn't even indulge in Paula's when its offered, it's shocking to me that I am as obsessed as I am, but there's just something about the Cider Mill that makes my heart beat a little faster. There is nearly always a lime out the door when you stop in on the weekend but it moves very quickly so no worries there. The donuts are all amazing. The pies, the cider, the baked goods, the packaged goods, etc are all amazing and you really can't go wrong here. read more

I first saw this when my friend posted and reviewed this spot. I knew I wanted to come here when I visited Buffalo again. It was Thanksgiving day and the lines were sooooo long. We waited in the rain, but it was wroth it. Fresh apple pie from from NY for Thanksgiving. What a treat for the fam. I wasn't planning on getting pie, but there was so many being sold. I didn't get the memo to pre order some specialty pies so I lucked out getting an apple one to take home! So many things are sold here. Spiced cider donuts were delicious and not overly sweet. Apple fritters and other sweets were good too. Apple Cider slushy was so refreshing. I don't care the time or weather, I love me some cold drinks. Such a cute stop and local place for some goodies. read more

I love Mayer Bros cider mill and cider in general! The apple cider donuts are amazing and the apple cider slush is so good... especially when you add a little fireball to it! If you plan to go during a beautiful fall afternoon... get ready to wait in line for a while. read more

I've seen the lines of people flocking to this destination on the weekends that have been posting on Insta. The answer is no. I would not be caught up in that even though these are the most delicious doughnuts in the area, and I would fight you on that. Forget Paula's, they will do in a pinch. I crave these doughnuts from Mayer Bros, and because they are only available during a short season, I try to get out there at least twice. This was my first go around. I arrived on a Wednesday and was in and out in about 10 minutes. The doughnuts are moist and delicious. The flavor is out of this world. I usually get the doughnuts made with apple cider, but I always have to get one or two of the sprinkle topped doughnuts because it takes me back to my childhood. But who am I really kidding, who doesn't like sprinkles a top their doughnuts? I wish they made these with apple cider in it. I also picked up some dip packets where you just add sour cream. These are great to put out if you're having a friend over. read more

Came here on a weekday morning on a rainy day and there was no line thank goodness. We were excited to try these apple cider donuts as it seems like it's pretty popular among the locals. The donuts we got were pretty good and stayed moist for several days but it didn't seem fresh or warm. The apple cider donuts with cinnamon sugar were the best as well as the glazed apple cider donuts. It's a pretty soft dense cakey donut. They had an plain one which wasn't too sweet. It had a hint of apple cider flavor. I'm not a fan of apple cider but I ordered the apple cider slushy anyway. It was way too sweet and tasted exactly like what you would expect except icey and cold. The warm coffee is the same one you could make in the office in their carafes so nothing special. I think it's nice fall tradition to get some donuts here and the outside would make a cute IG photo but I wasn't blown away. Although my boyfriend was a big fan of their apple fritters! read more

I always love going here in the fall season to get the apple doughnuts they bake, along with other pastries and pies they cook. For the couple times I do go there though I really do wish they had more than just 1 register open. The process of getting doughnuts packed takes a couple minutes and then im in line for 15.. OPEN MORE REGISTERS PLEASE! read more

YES!! I recommend this place if you want delicious cider donuts that taste like warm fall flavors! YES!! I recommend this place for their warm and inviting customer service! YES!!

I don't know, but this is definitely the place that screams FALL is HERE!!! Give me the donuts!!! read more

One of the most wonderful fall activities you can partake in: grabbing some deliciousness at Mayer Bros. Arrived at 1pm on Saturday from Buffalo proper and was prepared for a line based on warnings from friends. With social distancing and limited people in the store, took about 40 minutes to make it into the store. Much of the social distancing is self-regulated as the employees seem very busy. Definitely plan ahead and come early if you don't want to wait in line or visit on the weekday. I felt like a kid in a candy shop: something to smell, pick up, or order the moment you walk through the doors until you cash out. I left with a couple of donuts, a mini berry pie, half a gallon of cider, and an apple slushie. It was a great start to my day and would definitely return. Parking: plenty in front and in 2 nearby lots within a 30 sec walk of the entrance. read more

So admittedly I've had the cider and the donuts many times. This is my first time at the actual Mill. It's hyped up on all the local news channels. Everybody seems to be doing a live broadcast from there once a leaf even thinks of dropping. Figured why not! I didn't know what I was expecting but after waiting in line I got my Donuts my cider my cider slushy (tip add salted caramel vodka) looked at some of the other items for sale and that was it that. So it's tradition I guess for some. Food and drink excellent but it wasn't the attraction that I thought it would be. read more

A fall favorite! I am so happy the cider mill had been opening earlier in the season! I need to get my fix before I leave for school in the fall! Holy moly though, this place is a huge piece of my childhood. Going to the cider mill, grabbing donuts and a cider slushy and riding their complementary horse ride. Such a great tradition. I always make sure to grab an apple cider donut when I'm here, they sure are tasty and in my opinion better than the regular ones. They offer up a whole variety of sweets anywhere from filled Cookies, pastry hearts, giant Dutch apple pies and more! They sell cider in any quantity you could want! We always get the gallon because during the fall we fly through it! I also really enjoy just looking around their cute little shop! So many decorations and gadgets for the home! Make sure to get a apple cider donut and a slushy and you'll certainly be coming back for more read more

So this review isn't really on the store, but on one particular product. As the Covid quarantine lingers on, I found myself cleaning out some kitchen drawers. I came across a packet of Mayer Bros Buffalo Wing bread. Not even recalling when I bought it, the use by date was July 2020. All you need is a can of beer so I dusted it off and figured why not. Theses things couldn't be easier if they tried. Add beer, stir, bake. It came out perfectly! My only grumble is I would have liked a little more heat in the dough. A decent loaf of bread and a decent diversion to a gray Covid day. read more

Amazing variety of fresh apple cider donuts. The fresh cold gallons of cider are the real deal. Look at the label and you will see 100% apples unlike the awful stuff at Walmart. The cider bottled and distributed to Walmart is loaded with all kinds of preservatives and other ingredients. Even asked the associate at the register and she confirmed that there are two different types of cider that are sold. Buy your cider directly from here. It's delicious! read more

Going to the Mayer Bros Cider Mill is an annual tradition that I'm grateful we were able to maintain this year, despite all the local closures from COVID. Stanchions were placed for customers to form a queue along the parking lot to the left of the entrance, but social distancing wasn't necessarily enforced. Markings were placed on the floor to encourage standing 6' apart, but again, this wasn't necessarily enforced. As for the mill itself, they offer delicious baked goods including apple pies, cake donuts with granulated sugar, powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, cream cheese frosting, chocolate frosting, and sprinkle-topped, as well as apple cider donuts with all the same topping options. There are donuts with a chopped nut topping, for those with allergies to be aware of. Aside from baked goods, they offer cider in a variety of sizes, and, a customer-favorite, the cider slushie! There's also a refrigerated section of local cheeses and other delicacies, including caramel apples. Along the interior section of the store are old-fashioned candies like C Howard's Violet candy & different flavors of stick candy. I also spotted bags of sanded Horehound candies for purchase. Finally, if all the edibles weren't enough, there is seasonally-appropriate decor for sale all over the shop. read more

I may have been here decades ago. I'm pretty sure that I have. Anyhow. While I like apple cider, I don't live for it. No doubt that it's tasty however tomato juice is my preferred beverage of juice choice. Stopped in last week to purchase some local/season related food choices. Didn't think they would have a major effect on my future purchases - but they did. Donuts/frycakes. WOW!!!! I don't really eat these however the three that I purchased were history by evening. Moist. Tasty. OMG - so good! The pie (6 inch) was good. I was not a fan of the crust to filling ratio however I will survive. The filling was not super sweet and not too thick. The cider is always remarkable. Refreshing comes to mind. A repeat visit is in my future. read more

Wish it was open all year round! Has delicious apple cider, and also cider slushiest. Delicious fry cakes and donuts, plus wonderful home style baked pies. Crust is nice and flaky. Great seasonal treats and candy, soup mixes, dip mixes, syrup, jelly and hand, Cuba cheese and snack items plus decorations and artisan products. I miss it when it's closed, and, hate standing in line to get in when it's open. Great ambiance, smells of cider and fresh popped corn. read more

Come fall time there is only one donut for me (sorry not Paula's) and I'm willing to stand in that line to get it. But, don't worry, the line moves fast as they are always staffed appropriately this time of year and there are lots of goodies to admire along the way! Some of the selections of donuts are made with their cider and even the smallest of appetites can put away a couple without getting that sick sugar tummy ache . They no longer serve free samples of cider (too many bees, kids are too soft now, I dodged those bees for years) but you gotta splurge and get a frozen cider slushee, they are refreshing and pair well with the baked goods! Mayer Brothers should be on everyone's fall bucket list along with hayrides and carving pumpkins! read more

should be ZERO This gross candy apple was one of three all of the sticks came out, too. No candy very soft and garbage worthy. I always said Mayer West Seneca was junk and Flip the bird at us again in a picket - real class! ps the doughnuts had been OK (not great) at best all they really do is switch the toppings. This should be reported to the BOH as it was not edible. Shop local my eye!! Kettle corn outside tasted like reg popcorn - shame on u Be careful of this place you could end up sick! read more

Wish I could give this place 5 stars but unfortunately not this year. They had a lot of young people working and when I was ordering the donuts the girl was extremely rude. Luckily the cider slushie machine was working because sometimes it's down. Then at the register we asked If we could pay with a $100 and the girl was throwing a fit for having to count change for a $100 on her second day working. The food and drinks are amazing like usual but I'm very disappointed with the people working. read more

My heart feels so full every time I visit Mayer Bros. I've been visiting for years and there's been some exciting recent updates I've noticed. Huge example, there's a side parking lot many people never knew about because it was never connected to the shop. They poured a beautiful concrete sidewalk and now it's much safer walking away from the street. (Also recommend using this lot because the spots against the street are extremely stressful backing out of) They're open everyday 6am-8pm. Extremely flexible hours for busy families. They opened in August this year and that was super exciting. Had all typical products and they're fabulous. They have a large selection of fresh baked good, but I can't possibly leave there without getting a cider slushie. They're extremely about the environment and support reducing and recycling. You can bring in a reusable cup the size near the size of their slushie cups and they'll fill those for you. Also for sale are tons of cute gift ideas, recipe ideas, and cider jugs to take home. The employees are so sweet and are happy to answer questions. It's a great place to take your family, to check out with friends, or even go by yourself if you're feeling fall and festive! read more

So much more than cider. I love the hot cider, and their FAMOUS cider slushie. I make it a point every fall to pick up a dozen apple cider donuts. It's always in full swing inside, but lines move quickly. On top of the dozen donuts, we left with a Pumpkin Roll, cheese curds, fancy hot sauce and novelty candy bars. I'm not sure if the still off horse drawn carriage rides, but they use to for free on the weekends in October. read more
