super cool atmosphere- reminds me of a lot of breweries ive been to in Colorado. Photos do not do it justice. Ciders ranged from traditional to more unique flavors and flights were $15 for 20 oz total Also could bring any flavor home in cans! Vibe overall made the place. Dogs all over and open garage doors / patio when it's nice out and very nice people! My favorite flavor was the cherry rhubarb read more

Super fun! I've only stopped by for events, and all of them have been amazingly curated! I got to stop by for a drag performance, and all the performers KILLED it ! We grabbed a few drinks as well, and really enjoyed the piña colada flavor! The servers are kind, and allowed us to sample flavors as well:) Everything was light and refreshing, and left you feeling nice and bubbly! The patio is really cute (and dog friendly!). It's the perfect spot for a summer hangout, chats, and way to enjoy the MN summer sunshine!I look forward to catching more events at this spot! read more

Absolutely loved Sociable Cider Werks and had an amazing time with both curling and drinking both hot and cold cider! It's a great homey set up with the warming huts and the ice - you don't have to take playing seriously but it's almost impossible to not have a great time. Inside you have an amazing selection of delicious ciders and great service. I could see myself being a regular here if I lived in the area! Hope I can come back some day. read more

It has been a long while since I've been to sociable cider weeks , because I really don't like cider. It is worth a stop even if you prefer beer. I drank their Saison, which is a beer I love. It's hard to find, and even harder to find it done well. I was very pleased with their version. I did not try any of the sliders, but everyone I was with loved what they were drinking. It is a great place to go when the weather is warm. There are tons of outside picnic tables and lawn space, plus lawn games. You can easily bring your bike. And it's close to other establishments in the northeast. Big thumbs up from me read more

Love this place! The vibes are great inside and out. They have cozy firepits in the fall and hot mulled cider. There is also beer and thc beverages, if cider isn't your thing. We saw a band there as well and the venue is perfect for live music. Parking is easy and staff is friendly. I look forward to going back! read more

My friends and I stopped by here when we were in Minneapolis last month and it was a really good time! We pulled up and there was a food truck out front which was amazing considering I was famished. So I got a tasty chicken sandwich and headed inside. They had a lot of ciders on tap, which is great. The two that I had were really good and the employees were really cool and nice, which is a huge bonus. Overall, this place is really cool with the ciders and the outdoor seating area. I wish there was on in Omaha! read more

We've been here many times for craft fairs, art-a-whirl, bingo, and just because! Parking lot at the end of a "dead end" road or street parking by a softball/baseball field. If you've had any of their canned beverages from liquor stores around, then you know what you're in for. Tasty ciders, but not overly sweet. They are constantly hosting events! Their outdoor space is large, and their indoor space is cozy. It looks like they may even have an ice rink this winter! Would definitely recommend swinging by for a brew! One of their bingo guys is hilarious (Dark Po3) & their service like any brewery is quick and friendly! read more

It was a super fun evening of Trivia and Cider! Service was good, with quick attention and friendly hello's. The atmosphere is pretty loud, but that because they had a trivia ganó going on. Not was too cold to sit outside, but a nice fire was going anyway. We sat inside, I ordered a flight to sample several coders. My favorite was the cucumber habanero. I did not really care for the others. I'm not a fan of cloves and I think a few holiday specials were super heavy on the cloves. The SoSo food truck was great! I had the Wild dog, a weird wild rice "corn dog", but it was so good!!! My son had the fried chicken sandwich and he said it was delicious and the Totchos were fab! Yum! Tater tots with pulled pork and BBQ sauce. What's not too line? We played dice, petted a few sweet puppy's , and had a great time! read more

We finished the whole bottle and went back to get a second one Food truck is also good! Has some yummy hotdogs. read more

I went to sociable cider works with some friends on their open mic night. I got a cider and got food from the So & So's food truck which had a gluten free fryer! The open mic night was fun and it's a great space to hang out with friends. The tater tots were about 6.00 and the dip with them was really good! The cider is always good and fun to try different flavors. I like that they have a large parking lot for easy parking. read more

You dig cider? Look no further than Sociable. They've got a great taproom with plenty of seating and room to move around. The folks pouring the ciders sure do know their ciders and are more than happy to steer you in the right direction or give you a sample, the service is fantastic. They have a wide variety of ciders on tap, and each one is downright delicious. Some nights they even have live music, and there's always a food truck right outside if you need something to munch on. Sociable Cider Werks is a dynamic place to go, make sure you check them out for your next cider fix. read more

A great (mostly) gluten-free place that is perfect for socializing! This Minneapolis cidery is dog-friendly, relaxed, and great for gluten-free foodies! The trivia night was fun and we liked how we were able to talk between questions without having to yell. Nothing was too loud or overwhelming. There is a food truck (So & So's) from which you can order food using a QR code and they will bring the food right inside. I did confirm that there are dedicated fryers and use canola oil (gluten-free safe and no soy or peanut oils), so I got the tater tot nachos! A great way to spend a weeknight evening! read more

Sociable is a cool hangout spot with a rustic and industrial feel. It has a large outdoor space and in the winter is home to an ice rink. The whole venue is dog-friendly which is nice to bring along your well behaved pooch! Sociable also has staple food trucks which rotate every so often. The service at these is great, they have mobile ordering and notify you via text when food is ready. Though Sociable has a great space and variety of events to keep you entertained, the one thing that doesn't blow me out of the park is in their namesake - their cider. Between several visits throughout the year, I have tried their matcha, rhubarb tart, strawberry daiquiri, gingerbread, freewheeler, mead, rusty chain, and skinny tire. None of these really stood out to me and I believe there are much better cideries in the state. I don't think I will go out of my way to come back. read more

I originally booked Sociable Cider Werks space on April 21, 2025 (via PeerSpace) to celebrate my son's graduation and birthday. Unfortunately, the process that followed was marked by a lack of communication, inconsistent follow-ups and ultimately a cancellation that left me feeling deeply disheartened. Shortly after booking, I reached out to the listed contact, Olivia to confirm event logistics but received no response. On April 25, I visited the venue in person and was told by a bartender that Olivia was no longer handling events, and that Taylor Girocco, Taproom Operations Manager, was now the appropriate contact. I called Taylor that evening and, although she was at a wedding, she promised to follow up with me the following Monday. That follow-up never came. Over the following days and weeks, I made repeated attempts to reach Taylor by phone, email, text, and even in-person visits. While we briefly connected on April 29 to confirm key event details, I never received the promised catering menu. Despite providing an alternative email and making multiple attempts to follow up, including voicemail messages requesting a response. I heard nothing back. On May 7, I visited again in person and was met by kind bartenders who acknowledged the situation and promised to speak to Taylor. While I appreciated their professionalism and empathy, I was understandably stressed and concerned by the growing uncertainty around the event. Subsequent follow-up attempts, both in-person and over the phone, continued through mid-May. On May 21 and 22, I visited again and spoke with two team members (one a manager, the other named John) who offered understanding and expressed that Taylor was under pressure due to an upcoming event. They were professional and made efforts to reach Taylor on my behalf. Ultimately, I received an email on May 22 from Taylor informing me that my reservation was being canceled, citing my interactions with staff. This was shocking and upsetting. After weeks of trying to get a response, I felt punished for seeking basic communication and clarity. I share this with the hope that my experience will be taken seriously and that improvements can be made for future customers. I wanted to celebrate my son's milestone with joy and ease, but instead I encountered repeated miscommunication, unresponsiveness, and ultimately, a cancellation that left us scrambling. While I appreciate that Taylor has agreed to issue a refund, I will not be doing business with Sociable Cider Werks again. I also feel a responsibility to share this experience with my community to ensure others are aware. I sincerely hope this feedback leads to internal reflection and improvements in your event planning and customer communication processes. No one should feel the kind of distress I felt while planning such a special celebration. read more

I visited Sociable Cider Werks during the Friday of the Art-A-Whirl festival with some friends and was really impressed with the venue. The space is large, well decorated, and there is plenty of seating which was great for our larger group. I love cider and wanted to try some new ones out so I opted for what appeared to be one of the seasonal ciders - the Beach Cruiser. It was pretty expensive for a cider - I think around $8 or so and honestly, it was just decent. It was supposed to have a very fruity, sweet flavor but tasted pretty standard. Still a good drink though. I then saw a bunch of people around with slushies so I decided to try the strawberry lemon slushie next which ended up being around $10 or so. This one was not good, I would definitely not get this again. It was overwhelmingly sour to the point it was unpleasant. My friends all tried it as well, and none of them were fans either. The space and vibes are really cool though, and I would be down to come here again and try some different ciders and hopefully find something I like. read more

Went for a good show my friends band Delicate Friend was playing and stayed for the wonderful cider, atmosphere, and staff. It was a pleasant experience and a great hangout with plenty of parking.

I found this place completely by accident. (Well, I have definitely had their ciders before, but didn't know about their brick and mortar location today.) I had just come to an exhibit in the pop up art space, and it turns out that the free parking lot for the venue is also the parking lot for Sociable. And I was so thirsty. It was kismet, no doubt. What a fun venue! Awesome tunes, indoor and outdoor seating, a welcoming environment, and beautiful people everywhere. They have cornhole, picnic tables, Adirondack chairs, shade, sun (which is probably not available year-round)... it's an awesome place to spend a summer afternoon, with ample feel-good vibes. It's family-friendly, group-friendly, dog-friendly, and, yes, solo-friendly. You'll love it. read more

Celebrated the Summer Solstice by hanging out at Sociable Cider Werks beautiful patio! I was able to try several ciders before making my final de idiom and I landed on the pineapple and cherry Slushie- so sweet and perfect for the hot hot weather!

I would argue this is the best cidery in the Twin Cities. Lots of fun flavors to choose from, my favorite being training wheels. They have an ice rink in the winter and a lot of different programming that make it a fun stop any time of the year.

Obsessed with the patio! First time visiting today and it won't be the last. The bartender was so friendly, wish I would have caught her name! We decided to do flights to try a variety of the ciders - 4 5oz pours for $10. I selected road rash, training wheels, rusty chain, and beach cruiser. They were all fantastic, but my hands down favorite was the training wheels - hazy blueberry. All of the ciders were super fresh and bright, I can't wait to come back to try more. They had a large list on tap including some seltzers also. The patio was so beautiful! I can imagine how pretty it is at night with all their lights set up. There was a ton of seating both inside and out, as well as a food truck on site. The cidery is located tucked behind some buildings off of Central Ave -- it was kind of tricky to find but we figured it out! read more

Another Pub Pass stop. I don't normally drink cider so I had no idea what to order. The staff was super helpful. I opted for the Free Wheeler and it was good. I don't think I've acquired a taste for cider as yet but I love how the Pub Pass is taking us to new places and trying new things. The brewery was a fun welcoming place. It had a big hockey rink in the parking lot (no ice yet). Maybe boot hockey leagues? They had a live musician inside and the place was rocking. We couldn't find a place to sit inside so we bellied up to a cozy fire outside. They even had stoking wood just below your table to allow you to keep your fire going strong. Lots of groups of friends and lots of puppies. Great gathering spot. read more

If I had to pick my favorite brewery/cidery in Minneapolis this is easily in my top 3. They have amazing flagship ciders and the seasonal ciders are top tier as well. I need to visit every winter when they have their gingerbread cider because it's like Christmas in cup. I've never had a bad experience here, even when it's packed to the brim with people. I've never had bad service and the fact that they have art fairs that feature local artists is absolutely amazing. It can be so lively in the summer and a little more laid back in the winter. She's the literal "you both it". Needless to say, I love it here. read more

I visited Sociable Cider Werks with a few friends in the early winter months for some cider. I don't really like beer but I love cider so this was way more my speed than any other brewery in the state. Let me tell you, this place is huge. HUGE. And they have so many different kinds of cider! I LOVED their mulled cider, it hit the spot perfectly. But, there's so many different kinds, you're bound to find something you like even if you don't prefer the sweetness of a cider. The seating is limited, but there is a ton of standing room. Be prepared to share the space with others but I didn't mind. Affordable and a super fun spot. read more

I ordered the Mead for Speed. I found it horrendous. It reminded me of the moonshine I used to make at home. There was a strong aftertaste of yeast. None of the flavor of the honey came through. It's as if the mixed everclear, water, and a few tablespoons of gatorade. I can't speak for the other drinks. This one was quite bad. read more

Great cider and fantastic atmosphere. Lots of tables and occasional outside events and activities. There are lots of drink options to choose from, all of which are very tasty.

Awesome! Plenty of parking. Great ciders. The honey cocoa black currant & the peach nutmeg were both delicious. You can ask to taste any of the ciders on tap before you decide on what you want. You can request a crowler of any of the ciders on tap! I got one of each to go. Fast, friendly service. Definitely recommend. read more

1000% I recommend this place. Ok, so we like to curl and just found out about this place. Sure it's not a regulation curling lane. But it's functioning and it's a great place to hang out with friends and have a blast. Plus they supply all the equipment which isn't the best but it's just fine. The cider is delicious and we loved the combinations of ingredients and the variety. Nice staff who directed us well inside. If you're even remotely into curling and cheeky bevs with your friends, rent a lane and go here. It's super reasonable at 45 dollars to split among friends. read more

In Minneapolis for the Stevie Wonder concert in late October. Food and drink was delicious. Good sized samples of each hard cider was available. Non-alcoholic beverages also available. Staff were knowledgeable. Service was timely for food cooked to order! Could eat inside or out on a great sunny, warm day! Chose the comfortable outdoor chairs and enjoyed the sun! I recommend it and in Minneapolis again will make a return visit! read more

First off, major kudos for a solid system and flow to deal with COVID-19 times. Service and table use were efficient and effective, and I really appreciate that. We were visiting and wanted some good cider, and I can see why this place ranks well in that area. Cider is, in fact, their jam. I had a sweeter type (Candy Apple something maybe - don't remember the exact name), and it was solid. Others in my crew had other styles on tap and enjoyed them as well. I thought they were a little overpriced but not too bad, particularly considering it was a solid drink. We'd come back if ever in town again. Give it a go, and see for yourself. read more

Love this place! We got some canned drinks for a picnic in the park. We wanted the 'fun' label drinks but they don't sell them Togo so we got the growlers as we were bringing them off site. They have a really nice patio/outdoor area that we didn't get a chance to enjoy but it looked like it'd be a blast! There was also a parked food truck so I imagine they sometimes have that going as well. A perfect spot for some cider!! Love having something different like this around. Will be back! read more

My friends and I came here for Thursday night trivia and had a great experience! I would recommend getting there early to get a seat inside for trivia as it was hard to hear the questions on the patio over the music. I had the cucumber habanero cider which was cold, crisp and had a hint of heat. The weather was perfect to sit on the expansive patio. It is dog friendly so it was fun to see the vast variety of dogs! Plenty of parking. Highly recommend! read more

I love the mead, mead and more mead at SCW! It is the best mead in the TC!!! Well, I can't believe I never wrote a review of this place so here is my review #13. I am currently the Duchess of this joint according to my Yelp app - with a lot of check ins!!! Even though I have not reviewed this place, it does not need reviews because word of mouth has spread like fire on this place! I have to talk about the mead, yes still on the mead topic - it has the perfect amount of sweetness and an amazingly refreshing drink. Not so dry or tart, but it sits so pleasantly on your palate at each sip. Mead for Speed is their flagship (rightfully so) and everyone's favs, but they frequently come up with some fun varieties. This place is beautiful and offers a big parking lot. The bartenders are the best and they are a friendly bunch. I especially love their Monday night Bingo. I missed it much since we went into Covid lockdown, but I know we will all come back roaring strong against this virus! Nothing can stop us!! So here is the deal with their situation during the lockdown. Their online ordering process is swift and effortless. Choose delivery or simply pickup on your own. Very clearly marked instructions to keep everyone safe should you choose to show up. Crowler as a pack of 3 for $20 is a good deal if you want a variety and to drink it slowly by not opening the can. The better deal is of course, their $16 growler refill but they take stainless steel ones only not the glass ones because it holds the carbonation strength better. That's it! Order away! I also heard that they are launching their seltzer's soon at the liquor stores. Very fun flavors like pineapple and guava. I can respect their creativity and market research effort showing that these flavors are not common in the marketplace. I will be on a look out for the guava ones for sure. Cheers!!! read more
