the place was so cute and lively! We came for my friends birthday and tried an array of their cocktails. I love that they had a bit of everything for everyone. There was live music and just good vibes all around!

Milo liked it a lot!

Cool location overlooking HMB harbor, serving an array of hard ciders from dry to sweet, as well as craft beers and wine. The hot Bavarian pretzels with cheese sauce hit the spot. Super dog friendly. The folks at the window were friendly and the music was good. We'll definitely be back!

Loved this outdoor cider place! Great views, delicious ciders and music . What more could you ask for. The owner was kind and helpful. Can't wait to go back.

My boyfriend and I were exploring Half Moon Bay, and I've never come across a place quite like OceanCiders. This was such a cool outdoor spot to relax at. It's a ciders truck with plenty of outdoor patio style seating with a couple of fire pits, outdoor heating lamps, free blankets to use, corn hole, and live music. Because it's a ciders truck, they don't offer a food menu but sell small snacks. For those who don't drink cider or aren't in the mood for alcohol, they do offer a nonalcoholic hot cider! It was delicious! My boyfriend ordered a regular cider, it tasted a little fruity and it was good! We had excellent service, the employee was so kind and sweet.

Loved it! Amazing place to sit outside and sip cider by the water. There is a good variety of ciders on tap and the pretzel and cider cheese was delicious! Can't wait to visit again!

What and fun and cool concept and execution of a beach hangout spot! Came here for a friend's birthday celebration and we claimed the areas around the giant firepit in the middle of the place. There was plenty of seating and the pit was large and well-maintained. It was super-awesome to have live music to add to the already awesome vibe of the place. My husband and I walked across the way over to Spangler's to pick up sandwiches for dinner and we brought it with us to eat (thank goodness it was okay to bring outside food). I don't drink alcohol, so I didn't get any cider, but they had packages of s'mores for sale, so he got himself a cider and s'mores for me. What a perfect offering to have for a place with a ginormous fire pit. I had fun putting my s'more together. The marshmallows that came with it were the flat campfire kind - perfect! The chocolates were the Ghirardelli squares - also perfect! If they had coffee as an offering, that would have been ultimate perfection for me as a pairing with my sweet treat. It was pretty magical to hang out as the sun went down and enjoy the warmth of the fire enveloping us as the night air chilled. The bay was right behind us and the view was so serene. Restrooms were down the paved walkway and was convenient. Service was great. Ambiance was great. I had a fantastic time. Hope to be back!

Super cute area! Loved the mixed seating arrangements so you can pick your favorite chair and enjoy a cider. The pretzel was amazing. We loved the cider cheese too! Live band/artist is always a bonus!

I stumbled upon this place while looking for options in Half moon bay and man WHAT A GEM! They've only recently opened and it's such a fantastic place to hang out with family and friends or for a romantic date. It's a serene location overlooking the bay and it's gorgeous at sunset. We tried their hot cider and the spicy guava cider which was on tap and they were both yum. Prices are very reasonable for the experience you get. It can get chilly and while they have fire pits and blankets, I recommend you bring a jacket.

This place was a huge pleasant surprise. It was a rainy/windy day and we were over in the area…read morebecause we were just kind of driving the coast. We didn't expect much in this area because we were coming from the somewhat industrial looking side, but decided we wanted to look for a brewery. We googled and ended up trying this place out. Because of the weather, we didn't think there would be anyone else in here and didn't have super high hopes. We were so wrong! When we entered, there was a duo playing live music. They were enjoyable to listen to. There were also quite a few people in there of all ages and seemingly, different walks of life--always a fun thing to see. I ordered a flight and every beer on it was nice and crispy cold--the only way to enjoy beer in my opinion. And the flavors of every one were so impressive. We both love beer and are very impartial to our own local breweries in the town we live in--but coming here made me wish this was in our town! My husband ordered a pint of Sea Wolf and he really enjoyed that. I had the Love Boat on my flight which sounded intriguing to me. It was SO GOOD. It was an ill Ali eery and graham cracker sour. I'm not always a sour lover, but it was the perfect balance. I would say that and the Sea Wolf were my favorites. The gal working, Lauren, was incredibly sweet. We asked for some local suggestions of places she liked for food, drinks, etc. and she was really helpful--gave us lots of great insight. She also chatted with us about her dog and ours...overall just really cool vibes. This will definitely be a go-to spot on all our future visits to the HMB area!

My fiance was not a fan of the table that they sat me at while he parked the car so when he came in he asked if we could switch. They were more than happy to accommodate and we got a new table facing the ocean view window, but not next to it, because those are reservation only, completely understandable. Our server came by and was very friendly and took our order immediately. We decided to start with the poached shrimp cocktail and for our mains we ordered the pesto stuffed salmon with wild rice and the citrus beet salad with chicken added. After we finished our appetizer the hostess came by to kindly request we switch tables as they had a large party coming in. She took us over to a beautiful table right next to the window with an amazing view of the ocean! We were super thrilled! Our food came shortly after and I have to say the salmon was impeccably delicious. The assortment of fresh vegetables was wonderful, artichoke hearts, string beans, carrots and more cooked beautifully. My fiance really enjoyed his grilled chicken over the top of his beet and citrus salad. We actually switched plates for a bit because we wanted to enjoy each other's meals. We ended the meal with a cup of coffee that was strong bold and just my type. We also had the mango coconut a top buttery biscuit dessert and it was the perfect sweetness to end our meal. We had an unbelievable experience on a super busy holiday and everyone was so kind. The whole team worked together flawlessly. Thank you for the unforgettable experience!

The cantina is spacious and the customer service was excellent. Everyone was so helpful and kind. We even got some free pastries to go with our burrito. The burrito was excellent. Great flavor in every bite. The asada was so juicy and tender. Salsa and guac were fresh. I would gladly get another burrito next time I am in town. Well worth the price.

Clam chowder was ok but came out warm, prefer hotter in temp. Chips were crunchy and had great seasoning. Ceviche was ok, shrimp didn't seem too fresh and flavor wasn't too citrusy. Shrimp's appearance and texture felt like it was those already cooked frozen shrimp. To add on, we found a piece of hair deep in the ceviche bowl. We placed it on the plate for a better look. Called the server about it who then called the manager. Manager was apologetic and offered us a new order, which we just took To-go. We would have rather chosen to get a refund. Place is nice and offers many seating inside and outside patio. Entrance was kind of confusing, looked like a bar only until we clarified how to order for food.
