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

Only 8 ciders on tap, which they rotate depending on what they are making and availability. They…read morehave very good seasonal ciders. Most lean towards semisweet. Staff is friendly.

The best way to try their ciders is getting their flight. You ever have a drink and it sounds good, but you can't actually taste the ingredients? Channel Marker is the complete opposite. The cider's name is exactly what it tasted like. I love their habanero lime. It has a nice spicy kick. Their lavender Bergamot is next, it has a refreshing lavender flavor with a slight lemon touch. They all felt light. The pear wasn't my favorite since it tasted more like champagne. Their service was really good too! We felt very welcomed and we had the opportunity to talk with one of the owners and their journey in getting the taproom.

The vibes outside were cool, very outdoorsy/camp vibes as there are little tent/yurt structures with picnic tables underneath where you can enjoy your drink. There is also a fire pit area.

It was the perfect Fall day -no rain! We stopped in the Cidery and grabbed a beer for hubby and a wine for me. There was live music...a group playing Celtic songs. The bar offers a cup of food pellets for feeding the critters but we didn't think K was quite ready for that. We went to find the animals and discovered what a gem this place is. Highland Cows, donkey, a small horse, several goats and an alpaca. Really a great variety. And so friendly! We were able to pick up a few pellets for K and he LOVED feeding the goats! The grounds are amazing - way bigger than I expected. I could see how this would be spectacular to hang out on a summer afternoon. We'll be back!!

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.

On tap they have the ciders, some non alcoholic options like a cream soda as well as cbd drinks! They also have a fridge with more non alcoholic or cbd beverages which was awesome as I was a fan of the variety. Limited food options like bags of chips for sale and free popcorn. Outside food and drink is allowed which was nice. I saw many large groups bring in their own food. Atmosphere is friendly and accepting. Enjoyed the coloring supplies available and friendly strangers we chatted with. I ordered the cbd cranberry blood orange 8oz which was super light in flavor profile but a relaxing and tasty drink. My friend ordered the C.R.E.A.M soda and she said it was good. If I returned definitely I would try some of the ciders like Cinna-Bear as that looked popular. Free parking in front of the building is limited but beside the building and behind the building are more spots available. We enjoyed our experience here and my friend felt accepted and safe wearing her fursuit and also received many compliments. Fun and safe place to go on a Saturday night! Would recommend.

If memory serves I believe there was a brewery that was here previously as the layout of the taproom looked very familiar. They have their own ciders on tap as well as guest beer taps but I really wanted to try the cider. It was the primary reason for going here. What I got was their Lrg Up! Ginger Cider. It was really refreshing and good! It was nice and light bodied and had the presence of apple and of course ginger which I always enjoy. Service was friendly and fast and it was nice having the complimentary popcorn while I was enjoying the cider!

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 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.

We were warmly greeted and though our hostess was new, she did a wonderful job taking care of our large group of 12. Everything ran smoothly and she was great at keeping track of our progress. We learned more about the cider process and where they get their apples from. We really liked the port-like Pommeau and got a bottle of that at the end to share. They have a beautiful orchard that you can walk around in as well. Some nice seating areas scattered about or bring a picnic blanket. No food but maybe some snacks for purchase. We just came from lunch in town so I wasn't looking for snacks while I was there. I saw some people who looked like they brought their own picnic/food to enjoy there. No restroom on site but a porta-potty.
