Having celiac disease and going out to bars never mix. It's a challenge to find bars with gluten free food and drink options. Typically, my options are ciders but I'm not a fan of angry orchard. Meriwether Cider Company offered a variety of ciders and non-alcoholic beverages. I could even have a cider flight. Definitely will come back when I'm drinking again. The staff and service was great. I can tell the people who run the place treat their staff well and the bartenders enjoy what they do. Very pleasant people to talk to while having a drink. Ambience was nice. Felt like a nice rustic environment without the need for guns, hunting, etc. Felt like a nice heresy from typical bar culture. Felt safe, welcome, and like I could really enjoy myself if I return with a group of friends. read more

I thought their product was good. I think their promotion of having cheese sandwiches sucked. The bartender told us the sandwich guy was canceled. I would think that after all the media hype about the event, something should have been done other than some dude shrugging his shoulders behind the bar. This operation needs to learn some customer skills. This place operates in part by reputation. Right now, their reputation sux. Convince me, otherwise. read more

My wife and I came across Meriwether at a booth at the Boise market a few weeks ago. Tasted several varieties and purchased a 6-pack of the Ginger Root Cider. A couple days later, cracked a couple to pair with our dinner and realized it was just their plain cider, canned wrong. Reached out to Meriwether via their website and they couldn't bother to respond. Good luck! read more

Amazing cidery! Was lucky enough to stop by here while on a road trip. Hours are a bit limited as they arent open around lunchtime, but it's worth the wait. We happened to catch the end of the Valentine's special which was a strawberries and cream nitro cider. Wish they could can this cider or have it on tap for growlers as it was by favourite hands down. The other ciders are all pretty tasty. I recommend getting a flight to try as many as you can. Service was super friendly and there is free popcorn that you can help yourself to in the corner. Seems like a popular local hangout. Loved the board where you could purchase pints for friends. read more

We took our two young boys and felt right at home. Dog-friendly, kid-friendly and just plain friendly. Excellent cider, too! I especially loved the barrel-aged options, and the "Gin & Juice" (cider infused with herbs traditionally used in gin distillation). The mulled cider warms the soul on wintery nights. Come one, come all, and get your cider on! read more

Review update! Still awesome! Still Amazing! And, still such nice people that work and play here! Kudos to your Everything Nice, and to your Hopped Cider! read more

On a hot summer day sometimes getting some cold delicious cider is the right way to live. I live right! They have a bunch of quality ciders on tap, different flavors and some randomness. All in all this is a bit of a place you could drive by all day long but is a worthy stopping point. There is a nice little outside patio but enjoying the AC and having a flight or a pint inside is the way to live. I recommend the semi-sweet cider, it hit the spot for sure! read more

Meriwether Cider Company - One delicious, accidentally semi spilled, flight of ciders! - Cideries Near Me - Garden City, Idaho

This place is a MUST visit while you're in Boise. Who doesn't want to try the BEST local cider in the state? We stumbled in here by accident after seeing their cider in Trader Joe's. I am so happy we did. When you walk inside you'll see the bar, some tables and some games to play. They had 8 different types of cider to taste. We tried all of them and were not disappointed by any. I am a fan of sweet ciders, so I was a happy camper. Personally, I love buying local, so this place was perfect. There is an article in the bathroom that tells you how Meriwether was started, and it warmed my heart. The bartender was kind, helpful and knowledgeable. We bought a growler for the road and I'm happy we did! I wish I was local so I could visit here more often. read more

Very interesting cider in the 208 area. Certainly beats "Angry Orchard" and hop infused cider was neat. I will visit again the next time I am in the area. Cool place for Boise area and my expectations were a bit high having had cider in SF, Sonoma county and NYC. read more

Really great ciders with a good selection. Super friendly and excited. Open and clean atmosphere. The only issue is $20 to fill a growler. Will definitely be coming back. read more

Meriwether Cider Company - A fight of five - Cideries Near Me - Garden City, Idaho

I am a huge fan of Meriwether Cider Company! The people are always welcoming and the cider is the best in the valley. The Ginger Root is by far the best in my opinion but everything they make is great! The Sangria made in a collaboration with Potter Wines was amazing as a frozen slushy or in its regular form. Their habanero cider is pretty fantastic as well!! A truly great bunch of people and great ciders! read more

Meriwether Cider Company - As good as it gets for cider! - Cideries Near Me - Garden City, Idaho

Nice variety of ciders to please many palates. My favorites on opening weekend were Cherry Thyme Bomb & Ginger Root. So glad to have a cidery in the area. Come find your favorite brew. read more

Great cider and even better service! We first came across Meriwether Cider at Boise's Capital Market. They let us sample the Pineapple Habanero and told us about this location! We stopped in shortly after opening and loved it! There are so many ciders to pick from! They offer several of their own ciders, both staples and seasonals, as well as other regional ciders. Building a flight was fun - we each picked five from the expansive list. My favorites were the Chanilla (cherry vanilla, reminiscent of a cherry soda) and the Chaider (because fall flavors!). My boyfriend really liked their Hop Shot, which was like cider meets beer/IPA. The space is awesome! They sort of have a lumberjack theme. The bar tap handles for their ciders were axe handles, and the countertop was a gorgeous resin with wood slices. We didn't make it upstairs, but apparently it looked great too! I highly recommend going if you're in the area - and they ship too! read more

Really a remarkable local cider maker. Great facility, local snacks, the occasional upscale food truck. Always a delightful staff. Insane variety with surprising specials. Sunday Cider-Mosa's are WOW. read more

Meriwether Cider Company - A relaxing Meriwether respit. - Cideries Near Me - Garden City, Idaho

This review is specifically for the downtown location. First time here... pretty cool! Small but awesome location! I sort of find it weird that they serve other ciderys products but hey whatever! I got their mulled cider and it was super good! I've always been a fan of Meriwether so I'm not surprised in the quality of their product! I would say if you have never been to Meriwether go to this location. It's in a way more of a hip spot and might give you a better experience. But I also love the other location as well! I don't think you will go wrong with either. read more

I absolutely loved this cider house! The atmosphere was fun, the staff were friendly and entertaining, and all the ciders are gluten free which is great since I have Celiac Disease. I will definitely visit when I'm in town again! I hope the ciders will soon become available in the North Idaho area. read more

Great Cider and the service is always top notch. I always see the same woman and man working during the weekend nights and although I can't remember there names they always provide a great experience. I stop here whenever I'm in town for the atmosphere and tasty ciders. read more

Big fan!! I love the homey down to earth atmosphere, and every single thing I tried was amazing. The blackberry and apple pie ciders were superb. Go there if you are in the Boise area, you won't regret it!! read more

Super delicious ciders with very friendly staff AND patrons alike! The flights were a fantastic sampling and they were all very tasty - the pinapple habenero cider is definitely my favourite! I am already planning my next visit with even more friends. I loved it! read more

This place always wins my heart. Simple beautiful surrounding, wonderful list of ciders all worth a taste, just the best staff in the world, open hospitable, funny and knowledgeable. It's a place to relax, visit, unwind, meet new folks and let your soul play a little. Well done and thrilled it will be in our new neighborhood. read more

So glad to have found a local cidery for the non-beer or wine drinker in the household. We first tried the apricot sage at a local restaurant and wanted try the others they offered. Unfortunately they were out of the cherry thyme when we went but we'll be back. The patio is nice too. read more

I love ciders! We look for brewries when we travel and Meriwether was such a fun surprise. Working at west coast hop forward brewery in the Bay area I really appreciated the hop shot. I brought bottles home to share with my brewers! read more

Great place to come and sample many ciders and blends of them! Looking forward to our next visit!

Delicious cider!!! Awesome atmosphere, can't wait to visit again. I understand it's newly opened downtown, but it was extremely clean and modern. Wish we lived closer so we could drink more of their cider! read more

The cider here makes me feel pretty. Oh so pretty. Try the peach tea/ginger cider blend! read more

Solid ciders and good service. Great variety, but try the Meriwether flight. It's delicious.

Meriwether has become my gauge for all other ciders! They have some creative and tasty limited time only ciders that are fun to try. Everyone who works their is very nice and helpful. They know you when you walk through the door (even if you haven't been there that much). I try to tell everyone about Meriwether! They taste great, are local, and friendly. read more

I'm so thankful for this place. I love traditional dry cider. They have the sweeter varieties too. They infuse their ciders with some neat ingredients like sage or gin. 5 stars for it's great cider recipes. read more

Amazing place! All of their ciders are amazing bring some food and spend your evening here with friends. Great ambiance and the owners are super nice. Make sure to pet Scout and Luna the puppies if they're there! read more

The ciders are good, with a good selection. The checkout woman was rude, however, and asked us whether we wanted to apply a 20% tip or 30% tip on the $50 of cider were pulled out of the fridge to go. I don't tip my grocery store, and anyone asking you for a tip on a 6-pack is ripping you off. read more

The apricot sage cider is hands down the best cider I've had. Also enjoyed the hop shot and their semi sweet. Ginger was standard but still good. I enjoyed their inventive flavors and friendly atmosphere. Definitely a place to watch for craft ciders! A must go in Boise read more

I have tried ciders on numerous occasions because my sister loves them and always makes me try hers but normally I find it too sweet and just...gross. I was driving down Chinden and saw a table set up selling bottles outside and something possessed me to stop... probably the fact I haven't had a drink in weeks due to covid. I got a bottle of Foothill and one of Grapefruit Rosemary. Both were really good but the rosemary was amazing. My boyfriend loved both as well. I will be a regular customer and appreciate the fact they have a setup to pick up outside for the time being. read more

I for years did the angry orchard thing. I first ran into this family at the market. I was hooked!! Even jumped in on their kick starter campaign. Their cider is unique and flavorful. It's not your typical cider but to me that's what makes it better. If your not a wine or beer person or looking to avoid gluten you won't be disappointed. Try out the blackberry boom or the cherry thyme. This is a local run cidery by a super nice family. You can ask them anything you can learn a lot about the cider is made and they are always looking for flavor suggestions. The tap house is one of a kind in Boise; such a near spot. The bar top alone is just awesome; the decor is great. You can bring in food if you like it's a great local spot for that casual night out with friends or that after dinner date drink with your significant other. Give them a try support another local Idaho/Boise business!! Leave the angry orchard on the shelf at the store lol read more

This beautiful, home-spun creation feels like sunset drinks on the back porch. Each pint comes with an honest hello from some wonderful folks Boise is lucky to have in residence. The clean, laid back atmosphere ensures a friendly night out and a one of a kind cider experience. The Cherry Thyme Bomb exists only within my memory, but that memory dies with me... Not to be missed! read more

Great atmosphere!!! Enjoyed live music! Fabulous!!! The cider flight was a fantastic introduction!!! Highly recommend!

My favorite cider is the blackberry boom, but every one I've tried is delicious. The cider are flavorful but not too sweet and the cider slushees are so fun. The bartenders are always very friendly and helpful. read more

Great fun place! Cider is amazing- love to get the flight of 5 different flavors and the sisters behind the bar make it a fun family owned spot! Highly recommended read more

This place has a great relaxed atmosphere. All of the ciders we tried were very good and our server was friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely go back. read more

Loved the ciders! Enjoyed the flight so we could try 7 of their ciders for $12. Liked the presentation of the flight too. Best stop of the afternoon. They were accommodating to our group of 9 as well as the bus of Vandal fans that came in while we were there. read more

Great ciders! I really liked the variety, the location though is kind of lame, something with a little scenery and a better atmosphere would really compliment the great cider! read more
