What an amazing experience we had here at Rootwood. I don't remember if I ever asked the guys name that helped us each of the times we stopped in, but he really went above and beyond to provide us with a great experience. He knew the products well to suggest what would be best for us. We bought multiple bottles of cider, came back multiple times, and even appreciated the snack options. The bonus was the little farm market where we got to purchase goodies. The location was perfect for us and I don't think I knew what to expect, but really enjoyed the cider, the service, the location and finding a new favorite place for our next trip! read more

My daughter loves cider so we stopped into Rootwood while staying in Chelan. Plentiful, free parking can be found in the lot. Credit cards are accepted forms of payment. Shaded and unshaded outdoor seating in available. Indoors is small but comfortable. Rootwood offers club options as well as to-go cider in bottles and crowlers. Rootwood swag can be purchased. Food options are narrow. During our visit we each built a flight for $12; 3 cider samples. If a full bottle of cider is purchased, the $12 flight fee is applied towards the bottle price. Admittedly, I'm not a cider fan; however, Rootwood was a fun stop and the staff was pleasant. read more

We stopped in on a Thursday afternoon. The guy who helped us was amazing and definitely knew his cider. Bonus that the cider house is on an Apple orchard. The cider was hands-down the best cider we've both ever had and we will be back for sure. read more

We love Rootwood so much we joined the club! The outside seating is great, you sit in gazebos outside with fire pits in the winter. The cider isn't too sweet and there are so many great flavors to try. We love coming to visit when we are in town. read more

This was one of my favorite spots I visited in the Chelan area! All of the ciders were incredible and totally different from ones I've tried in the past. The ghost pepper one was my favorite even though I'm not usually one for spicy. Reid served us and was amazing! He was knowledgeable, funny, and helped us figure out which ciders to try. We sat outside at a fire table and it was so fun! We kept warm in the snow, and Reid even brought us blankets. The cheese plate was generous and full of great snacks! It was great for 4 people, but if we were hungrier we could have split it between 2. Loved it so much that my friends joined the club, which was a great deal. Absolutely lovely location, delicious cider, fun staff, and super cool vibe! read more

Rootwood Cider just continues to get more impressive with each release. The Rose and Harrison were wonderful- balanced, dry, and a long finish. As I drink more and more cider, I keep comparing to Rootwood and they never disappoint. Super friendly service too. read more

This was one of our must visits on our wine tasting weekend as we had several cider babies in our party. After a long day of wine tasting those cider babies wanted nothing more than a glass of something tart and refreshing. Our friend reserved an outside table that had a beautiful fireplace and we also got blankets. The outdoor space was really nice. Cozy thanks to the fireplace and blankets and it was also covered keeping us dry. We had good service and they brought us out some cider tastings as well as some hot apple cider hitting the spot on a chilly day. The husband of mine, who is a cider fiend, loved Lake Effect and had to get a bottle. I really loved their seasonal cherry. While we only had an hour to enjoy our sampling we definitely went home with plenty for later! read more

A sunny fall day, sitting on the patio sipping a cider flight and taking in the orchard surrounding us. Heaven! Our host Rachael, was incredibly welcoming and we all chatted about beautiful Manson and its history. Love their ciders! Crisp, well balanced and not crazy sweet. We also picked a bag of golden delicious apples! Do yourself a favor and wander up the hillside to enjoy this place! read more

I just tried their three cider selection and I have to say, the one that really stood out to me was the Hop Infused. Has a very nice crisp taste and flavorful to it. The outside sitting is beautiful, especially on a nice full on Spring weather. Highly recommend to check this place out! read more

Oh wow! This was an unscheduled stop but Steve and I came here to try a nearby craft brewery and figured we should stop in and try the cider here as well when we were up in the Lake Chelan area a few weekends ago. The cider here was fantastic and I love the taproom here! This area of Washington has cider and wine everywhere and one would hope that a fine quality of these things would be produced here. Well that certainly seems to be happening at Rootwood. The cider here was outstanding! Steve and I split a glass of their Harvest Cider which was extremely refreshing and perfect for the summer day we were out and about. The taproom is tastefully decorated and the outside seating is quite lovely to relax and enjoy the day go by. Excellent cider... I will definitely make a return trip back here whenever I'm in the area. read more

While in Chelan we drove over to Manson and stopped at their tasting/gift location on Main Street. We had two delicious snacks and some cider. When I closed out the bill it was recommended we stop at their orchard location. I love adventure so we found it and did a tasting. The representative on site was super friendly, a life long resident. The grounds are beautiful, we got some history about the farm and I bought two bottles to take home. In all my summers in Chelan I've never been here. I will definitely make this spot a stop when I there. Beautiful location and delicious cider. Just recently consumed the rose' cider with friends and they were impressed. Venture off the beaten path and you will discover spots like this! read more

My last review was when the taproom was in downtown Manson and this was my first visit to the Orchard - I absolutely love this location. It is a cute and cozy tasting room set in the Orchard - we visited in the snow in winter and it was so peaceful and gave such a warm feeling despite the weather outdoors. We did a tasting, bought some bottles, and the best part - had some hot spiced cider to warm us up in the winter weather! I can't wait to visit again in the summer! read more

Passed by Rootwood Cider for 3 years and finally stopped in for a sample. Man, were we missing out. The cider flight is 6 1-oz pours. They were all good but my favorite was the hop infused because it had a hint of beer flavor which turned into me leaving with a growler. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and I enjoyed the conversation. We will be stopping now when in Manson instead of driving by, don't make the same mistake I did and stop by for the flight out of 6 I'm sure you'll like one of them. The tasting room was open and casual will a cool drift wood wall. Cheers! read more

Cider was good. Setting was beautiful. Guy serving was rude. Guy visiting (postal worker drinking on the job) rude. Just not impressed

We visited Rootwood Cider Taproom for the barrel tasting weekend in Chelan. Unfortunately they didn't have any special tastings going on, or at least none that they told us of. But the ciders were great, on the drier side which are my fave and they let you pick a collection to taste. This collection is brought in a fun wooden trough to your table attached with note cards on each cider. We also ordered some food, basic food, cheese, meats, chips and salsa is all they have here, but it was good nonetheless. I would love to have seen some salads and such feature on the menu too, but hey! Atmosphere was good and the employees seemed happy to be working there! We hope to be back! read more

We visited in January during a weekday and had a wonderful experience! The tasting room is in a very cute building right on the main street of Manson. Cider was delicious and we got several bottles to take home! Service was excellent and friendly. We enjoyed a plate of salami, cheese, crackers and apricots as well. A must-visit when in the area! read more

The Dry Hopped cider was my fave! Nice space, friendly service, free pretzels. A tasting includes all four of their ciders. I'll be back! read more

Excellent thing to do on a hot day!! We were able to do share a tasting and then enjoyed a few glasses each! Excellent cider! It's kid-friendly too - they had a stash of toys for our 3 year old to play with. We enjoyed talking with the employee about their business and purchased some cider to bring home. They also have some great logo wear. We brought a Tshirt home too! read more

My husband is a beer guy and he loves Rootwood's cider, all of their offerings are amazing, dry, and really drinkable. When I visit the Lake Chelan area I make certain to stop in and grab a few bottles to bring home to Seattle. I wish we could get Rootwood on the other side of the mountains! read more

Enjoyed this place very much. Both ciders are great though the Lot 17 is my favorite. The staff was excellent.

Great staff and setting. Longtime valley folks that enjoy sharing local history and myths. Cozy environment with a relaxing atmosphere.

Rootwood cider is a great addition to the wineries in the valley. It is refreshing on a hot day and we heat it up with some cinnamon sticks in the winter, so grab a case to go. They have indoor and outdoor seating and its a really a great place to relax, visit with some friends and enjoy the wonderful weather and a little quieter experience in Manson. read more
