    Schilling ciders are the first hard ciders I actually enjoyed, and they have many delicious and creative flavors! My bf and I got the moon berries & cream as slushies and they were delicious!! They also have cans & packs of ciders for sale and the prices are much more affordable compared to any other grocery store (a can of hard cider was $3). No Cash & No food sold. Service was great and quick. The ambiance is good, tables are clean and decor is nice as well. They also have a trivia game night every Monday at 7pm.

    Came to Schilling Cider House and absolutely fell in love! Why can't you be closer to home?! Every special flavor I wanted to try was almost better than the last especially the dreamsicle one! Ugh! Honestly! I've already contemplated a road trip to get these guys home! Staff was super friendly and I also loved that you could just sit, sip, and play board games. What could be better?

    You can never go wrong with Schilling! They have such a wide range of flavors and you won't be able to find those elsewhere. I definitely recommend getting a flight so you get the chance to try multiple! The staff is incredibly helpful and they will make sure to give you excellent recommendations!

    What A Peach

    Got some good ciders from this chill place in Fremont. It has quite a few on tap and these are as fresh as it gets. Schilling Cider House is a good alternative to having beers and liquors. Basically a slightly healthier way to consume some alcohol. The prices are higher than a typical brewery, but this is handcrafted and high quality kind of stuff. Came in later when it was busy. It's still got enough room for big groups. The bar is covered in books and games if needing something to occupy yourself. Cool stuff, but people come for the ciders of course. It's about $9 a pint. That's kind of a lot, but this is made in smaller batches so it's not as efficient to get these. Best one of these we had was the What A Peach. This is a pretty strong one, that's sweet, and is made with cinnamon extract, heirloom apple, lemon, peach, and vanilla. A pretty good variety to choose from. These vary in the alcohol content, with some of these being quite strong and getting you feeling tipsy faster than expected from just a few pints. Has a pretty laid back location in a cool area of the city. It's also got another location in Portland. This one is the original so it's the best though.

    I've been a fan of Schilling ciders, so this was a great pit stop -- there's a pretty big tap list with tons of fun flavors! It was located right along the water with plenty of seating, plus a shelf of board games. The cider was tart and dry, perfect to sip on.

    Loved my night at Schilling! Decided to have a girls night out and we each got a cider flight! And was under $20 to try out 6 different ciders which I thought was reasonable! The bartender working was so nice and explained the whole menu to me and even offered me to try the pickle back cider, but I was too nervous for that. Will definitely visit again.

    We stopped in at the Schilling Cider House to celebrate Father's Day and finally drink inside this location. I've had the ciders out in the world like at Mariners games or from the local stores or pubs but I like going to the source to see what makes it tick. Schilling is a very good local cider made right here in Seattle. There are a large number of flavors offered on tap at the cider house and a large variety of refrigerated ciders in a long case along the wall. The refrigerated cases also have all sorts of other ciders from other companies for sale. Inside there are several long tables with high stools around them. There are lots of Schilling branded items around and games and coloring sheets with pencils and crayons for customers to enjoy. There is a small "garage sale" section inside that has some discounted merch and some cheaper ciders for sale. We had flights of our favorite sounding cider flavors and really enjoyed them. Our server was very helpful and descriptive of the flavors. She also helped me a bit with the Geocaching Adventure Lab Scavenger Hunt inside the cider house. I like the variety of ciders to choose from and the large drinking area here. It's worth a visit.

    The Big Zesty hard cider from Schilling Cider!

    Steve and I had Schilling Cider on a couple of different occasions. This cider experience is the first for this location and as usual it doesn't disappoint at all. On this cider outing Steve and I had the Big Zesty cider. This cider was fun as it has elements of guava, lemon, crispness and a natural sweetness. You can also expect to find aromatics at work which makes the Big Zesty a fun, complex and interesting cider to drink.

    Schilling is a small tap room in Fremont. The staff were friendly and quick. We went on a Saturday afternoon, the cider house was moderately busy. The tap house had lots of board games. Great place to grab a drink with a friend. Their cider are one of my favorites. They offer pre chosen flights or build your own!

    I do love a good cider, but usually am a little hesitant to venture out and try them because in my experience they're either too sweet or too cry. Schilling has a VARIETY of ciders that all fall within the range of sweet and dry. Our server was so kind and let us sample a few before we made our decision! I don't remember what the exact names of the ciders we got, but one had strawberry + rhubarb and the other was like a mule! They were both very well balanced between sweet and dry. The taproom is a good size and clean. Especially because it's smack dab in the middle of Fremont, it's accessible and around a lot of food places. I will be back!

    One of my fav cider places in Seattle. This place is open until 11pm so stopped by and tried their plum & plucket, orange vanilla and lemonade ciders. Delicious and perfect to beat the heat! Dog friendly spot with decent indoor seating space for group. I can see this spot being busy on weekends and a crowd cider fav. Overall love it here and love their ciders.

    deliciousness  Excelsior Imperial Mango hard Cider
    Paulina Alejandra G.

    Hard Ciders are always a great Choice! Good for digestion after a big breakfast-brunch. Stopped in before heading back home to Cali, and I think I just found my Favorite cider. "Excelsior Imperial Mango". Wowzaaa! So light, crisp and subtle. "Menor" the Cashier was very friendly & helpful.

    The best selection of ciders, from super dry to really sweet! Got a flight of 6 ciders for $15 and especially loved the dreamsicle and mango flavors!

    The best happy hour in Fremont! This is my husband's and my go-to spot for fried chicken and…read moresports. Their daily 3-5 happy hour makes it particularly fun to watch college football on Saturdays or NFL on Sundays. They have a dark and cozy interior with a lovely shaded patio on hot days. We typically order the same thing each happy hour - I love the fried chicken sliders (Nashville hot) and my husband gets the fried chicken basket. We always pair that with a vieux carre. Total tab is under $35 not including tax and tip. A complete steal in Seattle these days! Service is usually quick and thoughtfully-spaced with enough time to make a dent in the drinks before the food arrives. It's the perfect spot to meet up with friends, host parents, and watch sports of any kind (the mariners game is always on).

    I visited Triangle Spirits for a Friday lunch after hearing about how great their fried chicken is…read more It wasn't very busy at all - it's probably more of a place for the evening and late night crowd given their well stocked inventory of alcohol and spirits. I believe food is made to order, so it took a good 20 minutes before my order arrived. Fried Chicken Sandwich, Nashville Style ($19) - This sandwich is pretty simple in terms of ingredients - a buttery and toasted, fluffy bun, a couple of pieces of iceberg lettuce, the requisite pieces of fried chicken, creamy mayo, and some sweet and tangy pickle rounds on the bottom, to cut through the chicken fat and fryer oil. The pickles, while necessary for the sandwich, are far sweeter than I prefer, and given in a larger quantity than most fried chicken sandwiches. The lettuce isn't applied very well; even coming to the table, large pieces had already flung out of the sandwich. The star of the show is obviously the fried chicken. A lot of people think Nashville-style just means dumping a bunch of cayenne chili powder onto a regular piece of fried chicken and calling it a day. This technique adds spice, sure, but doesn't enhance the chicken with waves of layered flavor. Triangle Spirits does it mostly right, albeit with some outside-Nashville adjustments. The chicken is clearly brined well, giving a great flavor base, then dredged in a lightly crispy breading that properly adheres. The breading isn't red in color, but has a complex spice with mild heat and a touch of sweetness. It's not too spicy at all; it would probably be characterized as a step below mild at a traditional Nashville hot chicken establishment. The chicken is pounded thin and is still relatively moist. While Triangle Spirits doesn't add cayenne to the brine, nor pour hot cayenne oil over the chicken, the overall flavor profile is excellent given the care put into the seasoning. The flavors are balanced. The sandwich comes with fries, which are normal commercial thin fries. They are fried until crisp with the interior starting to dry out, but still remaining mostly fluffy. They toss with a lot of salt so it's on the saltier side. (4/5) I actually revisited a couple of weeks later to try out their bone-in chicken, which is by far my preferred way of eating Nashville-style hot chicken. Dark Meat, 3PC, Nashville Hot ($21) - This is more like 2.5 pieces of chicken, with a thigh, drum, and wing flat. The chicken is remarkably similar in taste and fry level as the sandwich, juicy inside, lightly crisp on the outside. Again, with a very mild heat, balanced with the excellently brined chicken, some smokiness from the chilis, and a bit of sugar sweetness. Just a great layered flavor profile. This time, they actually do douse the chicken a little in cayenne oil - but again, it's a very mild one. Unfortunately there's no piece of white bread underneath to soak up all the oil. I wonder if they fry in peanut oil because I taste some nuttiness in the breading as well. This comes with one side, of which I went with the collard greens. They are cooked well, with some vinegar to cut through all the bitterness, but still leaving some texture. They come in a cup that's filled to the top with essentially a ham (maybe bacon?), onion, and garlic broth. There's not much acidity at all, and it's pretty nice to drink just as a soup. I'm not sure this is a great side to go with the fried chicken though - when it came to the table, since the cup was so full of soup, some spilled out and soaked into the chicken. (5/5) Service is generally on the slower and lackadaisical side. Even for lunch, when there was barely any traffic, on both visits it took me almost an hour and half from entering the establishment to leaving. It's definitely not a place for a quick lunch. Most people eating here probably get a beer or liquor, but I drink water only. The water cup they give is tiny, and with the inattentive service, it doesn't get refilled often. I wish they left a small jug of water at each table. At any rate, the fried chicken Triangle Spirits serves is actually very good. I wonder why it doesn't appear on any best of Seattle fried chicken lists - because it's definitely better than some of the entries on the typical list I see. Bathrooms - Two larger ones, one for men, one for women. Food: [4.5/5] Service: [-] Other: [ ] Final Rating: 4/5
