Got to visit this place on a Saturday for a private party. As soon as we got here, I will tell you…read moreparking as a challenge. However, apparently on the weekends parking is open despite all of the reserved signs that line the actual parking spaces. There was also an upper area that is completely unpaved, but apparently it's also used for parking. The location is a little bit small however it has everything you expect from a brewery type set up. There are huge stainless steel VATs. There's lots of boxes and bottles everywhere as well. However, I think the best part is definitely the options for tasting menu as well as options for a full glasses of a variety of siders that they produce both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Place is really clean great for hosting this private event and the staff that we're here that day we're very friendly and helpful and patient as well.

I had recently had Haykin Family Cider as part of a dinner pairing menu at a local restaurant, so I was pleased to see it on the list. The tasting room is large and nicely decorated. Staff is welcoming and knowledgeable. They have multiple options for tastings: flights, tasters, or a glass. All are generous pours at reasonable prices. Their menu lists detailed information about each cider as well as the tasting notes to as the level of how dry or sweet the selection is. Haykin Family Cider makes small batch cider with bubbles that are similar to sparkling wine. We were able to hang out for a bit and laugh and relax. It was a great experience and I would happily return.

What else can you ask for?! The bingo event was fun and well run by the host. You can even play doubles by using the physical board and going online.

From the outside, if you didn't know better in the middle of winter, you would probably think you're in the wrong spot. Once inside, we were warmly greeted and invited to try as we went along. Lots of knowledge stood behind that bar and we all ended up with something we enjoyed. There are multiple comfy spots to settle in and plenty of options to work through if you want to stay for a bit. Shoot some pool. Play cards. Just chat. You'll want to hang out for a few, maybe indulge in a soft pretzel and grab another cider to go.

The ciders are in a good variety with each one being just as good as the next one while I can't remember each of them I had as I was just soo tired by this point in the adventure I can say I did enjoy each one of them as they all had awesome flavors and were just refreshing! The fried mushrooms we ordered were outstanding they had a Thai chili sauce on them which was super yummy mixed with a perfectly fried shroom that was full of flavor making for some of the best fried mushrooms I've ever had! My burger was just standard while the meat was flavorful the green chili fell short leaving me wishing it had more chili on it but don't get me wrong it was still yummy and a good burger that you really can't go wrong with! Overall chill place to grab some cider who knows if I'll ever get back here again but if so I'll be looking forward to it!

So often it seems like ciders automatically have that original apple cider taste, but Stem goes out of the box! The customizable flights ($12) made it super easy to try the ciders. On this visit, my favorites were the hard mango and hazy apricot! However, I liked all that I tried- salted cucumber, chile guava, and hard peach tea! Most unusual was definitely the salted cucumber! I was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was too! My partner and I tried the soft pretzels ($11.95) and the green chile and pepper jack burger ($17.95). Both were great! Pretzels were fresh, tender, and piping hot! Comes with 3 and they paired well with the cider cheese. The burger was incredible tasty caramelized onions, green chile, beef, and cheese- we requested aioli on the side but great flavors and served with perfect crispy fries! This RiNo location was super relaxing with both indoor and patio seating and live music during this particular evening! Service was attentive and friendly!

Made a born day reservation here for 4 and wised it weren't rainy and cold. The views here, despite…read morethe dark clouds, were lovely. So much outdoor space that we will definitely make the drive back on a cool, sunny day. We sat at a massive table that could easily seat a party of 10. Maybe they use these as community tables when they're busy. Either way, it was quite spacious! We ordered ciders and the parents ordered one of their flights to taste some of their traditional ciders. I immediately set down the Blueberry Lime. In love. With ciders, is there really ever a bad one? I think not, lol. The food was amazing as well. It looked scrumptious - presentation was fabulous. Cooked to order but we didn't wait too long. We tried their cactus appetizer which reminded me of grilled onions - tasty. Burgers were on the menu for us. And I loved their salad. So very fresh. Stem uses local sources for their fresh ingredients and it really makes all the difference. My partner had the chicken fried cheeseburger and would have liked more flavor. The breading became soft fast and didn't stand a chance with the gravy, making it a soggy mess. My Fuego, on the other hand, was great (GF CRISPY CHICKEN, FUEGO PICKLES, JALAPENO SLAW, HABANERO JACK, SPICY AIOLI). It was huge but packed well. Our servers were great and checked on us often. Definitely bookmarking Stem to return. They've got so many ciders and craft beers on tap, as well as cocktails to offer. And that view!

We got two flights and shared and honestly, I didn't really like any of those sliders except one, blueberry. I thought they were really expensive.

There was a pretty long line which was not fun.

Acreage by Stem Ciders ended up being one of the places that helped us fall in love with Denver…read more My girlfriend and I first visited while we were in town trying to decide if we wanted to move here. A friend recommended Acreage, so after a long day in Boulder, hiking and walking around town, we stopped by on a Saturday evening. And honestly, it lived up to the hype and then some. The setting is what really makes this place special. It was busy with what felt like a true local crowd--families, kids, groups of friends--all hanging out. There's a huge outdoor area with picnic table-style seating, plus some indoor space, but the real star is the view. The mountain backdrop is unreal, and the sunset we caught that night was one of those "okay, we could live here" moments. They do take reservations, and I'd highly recommend making one if you're going on a weekend. We loved it so much that we've been back twice since, once while apartment hunting and again after we moved, when we brought family to show them one of the spots that sold us on Denver. For a cider-focused spot, the food seriously overdelivered. The soft pretzels are next level--three per order and perfect for sharing. Everyone gets their own and is happy. The roasted baby carrots were just okay and probably something I'd skip next time. The Jalapeño Caesar with added chicken is really solid, and the winter salad (also with chicken) was a huge portion and great if you want something a bit lighter/greener. The Lafayette cheesesteak sandwich, though, has been the standout for me--top tier. I'm a sucker for a good sandwich and this one absolutely delivered. There are still a few things on the menu I'm looking forward to trying next time. And of course, the cider. I'm not a big beer guy and neither is my girlfriend, so this place is perfect if you're looking for an alternative. I'd definitely recommend doing a flight. They've got a wide range--from fruitier options like blueberry and apricot (crowd favorites) to drier ciders, which I tend to prefer. They also rotate some unique options--recently we tried a salted cucumber cider that was great and quite refreshing. My personal favorite is the Banjo series, which is aged in bourbon barrels. It has a subtle bourbon flavor that makes it super unique and really enjoyable. All in all, Acreage is more than just a cider spot--it's an experience. Between the views, the atmosphere, and the surprisingly great food and drinks, it's become one of our go-to places!

Definitely an experience worth testing out when you're here.
