They provided lots of board games and card games to play. i had never heard of this brand before moving to seattle, so im so glad that someone recommended it. The ambience is brewery. I highly recommend a visit here. i loved the apple chai-der flavor, and it's really devastating that it's seasonal.

Service was pretty fast and friendly, only bummer was that we wanted to watch game 6 of the mariners but it was the same time they had a Halloween movie event and they were also having a reserved staff party so it wasn't a good environment to watch the game as the movie night screen was right next to the movie night and the other tv was being used by the reserved room. Overall cute spot

I have found that this taproom doesn't tend to get as busy as many in the brewery core of Ballard, perhaps because it's on the other side of 15th. The bartenders are nice.

My favorite brewery in Seattle, hands down. I would also place this in my personal top 10 all time…read more I would rate this place a 5 alone based on their customer service. From being incredibly welcoming, to making great recommendations, this place has it all. As for the space, plenty of seating inside and outside. Place was busy when I went on a Wednesday but not overwhelming. The beer, my god the beer. Some of the best I've ever had. Not sure if it's the Wet or Fresh Hops getting to my brain but I've never thought, I could move here just to be close to this brewery. This place had me getting on Zillow immediately

From IPAs, fruity goodness, and non-alcoholic bevvies, I guarantee there's something for everyone in your group to enjoy. I met up with a group of friends for a mid-week drink at this Ballard favorite. My drink of choice was the Wassail, a holiday spiced cider. A more traditional cider in comparison to some of their wacky flavors. Their outside patio is large, with a variety of both covered and uncovered seats available. While they don't serve food onsite, you can view their website for a calendar of upcoming food trucks. We were also obsessed with their analog photo-booth and ended up having a very expensive photo shoot post-drinks.

Great cider house - over the past few years they have really built it up to be a community space…read more Over a dozen ciders on tap to choose from with some creative flavors - I especially liked the coconut cider this time. Even though the place was bustling, service was patient and friendly. Lots of outdoor seating, and the coolest part is you can grab a cider and watch the animals that are part of the petting zoo farm. The highland cows, alpacas, and goats are adorable and well cared for. Also love that there's now a food truck there sometimes. Plenty of parking, too - my only wish is that there be a traffic light at their intersection as it's very difficult to turn in and out. Not their fault!

There is limited food to purchase but they do have a food truck there sometimes. Large covered are to rent for parties. Overall their ciders are good. I feel the flavors are hit and miss. More hit than miss. I did a flight of 6 and 2-3 of them didn't have much flavor. But the others were delicious! Is it worth the drive?....yes

Typically, I tend to trust cider being gluten-free over beer. The server made some recommendations for my cider flight and I definitely pick a variety just to see what they're all like. Vanilla bean was definitely my favorite. It was very light, crisp, and had a hint of real vanilla. Will definitely be getting one again while I'm in town. The price was very reasonable! I got to have a taste and sampler of six types of cider. The ambience was nice. There were a few families there having a get together, so everybody was happy and cheerful. Very glad I found this place. It's not a very long walk from pikes place.

We more or less stumbled upon it because we had parked in the garage just below. I really liked it. A great selection of ciders--I really like their Pub Dry--which you can flight. We opted to try a couple of varieties ourselves, rather than a flight, and they let us taste them before we committed. Food options were pretty sparse when we were there. They were out of all the folds (it wasn't even 6!), so all that we could get were sausages in a bun. Perfectly edible, but low-key. Locust's emphasis is certainly on the cider, less on the food! Staff was friendly and helpful. When my girlfriend accidentally spilled her full glass because the table was slightly rickety, they replaced it without question. That was so nice! The place is pretty open, with lots of natural light. Has a really good vibe. There are plenty of options for seating, but the place could easily accommodate more tables and seats. There's a lot of unoccupied floor space. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm downtown or near the Market.

Service was super friendly and willing to make recommendations (and keep me from making a bad choice)! I opted for a mixed cider - blackberry and vanilla... and it was EXCELLENT! I never thought to mix ciders... so this was a little eye-opening as to possibilities! Would definitely get that same mix again... or get either one separately. The stools could be a bit more comfortable, but I suppose they probably get more comfy the more you drink, lol. Would definitely return! Overall rating: *****FIVE STARS*****

They have a variety of ciders and couple perries. We went with the tasting menu which was $14 for 5 2oz samples. Everything we tried was delicious, but my personal favorite was the crabapple cider. They also let you walk around the orchard, it was fascinating to see the different verities of apples on the trees. They have some snacks available for sale, but you are also welcomed to bring your own food. Overall definitely a great, laid back spot to hang out!

They allow you to stroll through their orchard rows at your leisure. There isn't much there for entertainment, but it's an open area that serves cider, you can bring your own snacks and games, music etc. My kids really enjoyed chasing the bullfrogs by the pond. I had sort of assumed that the kids would get bored quickly and we would leave right away. But they were so entertained playing in nature that I couldn't get them to leave for hours, which made for a relaxing afternoon for me and my wife as we sipped cider and watched them play. The cider itself is some of the best I've ever had. I consider myself a bit of a connoisseur and I would rank dragon head as my top cider in the state.

The awesome staff mentioned that their tasting room was close by so we decided to go the next day to try more of their bottles. Tasting flight is $15 with a $5 upgrades to try a liqueur and the non-alcoholic cider as a finishing palate cleanser. We bought their Pippin cider and ended up getting another set of their non-alcoholic cider. A friend bought their liqueur saying it had a very interesting and unique flavor that reminded him of childhood memories - that earthy, outdoors freedom he grew up with. The tasting room is a beautiful, open space and great to relax in as you sample the various ciders. You can also order full glasses if you have a favorite. There is a big patio outside lined with apple trees and lots of grassy area to lay a picnic blanket and more seating.
