Three friends and I went for late night snacks and drinks after a show at The Dome/Planetarium. The appetizers were delicious, and the drinks were divine, but the music was fantastic! The lovely young blonde ponytailed server was in control of the playlist which featured late 80's/90's music primarily from England (Britpop/Madchester with a few American acts from the era mixed in). Seriously stellar musical ambiance, 6 out of 5 stars!

I love the cider house. I recently hosted a birthday party there - the space is setup brilliantly for an event like that. The drinks are obviously great, and they don't just do cider! Their cocktails are amazing - Special shout out to the Negronis and the Chai Espresso Martinis. The food is also excellent. Another great thing about hosting the party there is that they let me build a spotify playlist so we had control of the music - very appreciated for a birthday party!
The staff engaged brilliantly with the group, and felt part of the gang. Fantastic atmosphere, great staff, great space, great drinks, great food - what more could you ask for!

The food here is absolutely fantastic, non-veggie friends like it too. The kale caesar, macaroni, and loaded home fries are my favorites. Cider is great too! Little cold inside in the winter because of all the windows.

Underwhelming experience with more often than not average or below-average service. People come here for the beach views and summer drinks, but during the day, indoor seating feels congested and like there is a the lack of air circulation makes the space feel gross. Expect lineups for the specific indoor tables with a view, which honestly doesn't feel worth the wait given the inconsistent service.

We hosted our team holiday party at Vancouver Cider House and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Nikki was fantastic to work with throughout the planning and coordination process. Her communication was clear and timely, and she gave excellent suggestions for food to start the evening, all of which were delicious.
The drinks were excellent across the board, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the service throughout the night was great too. Our team had a fantastic time, and the space felt perfect for a small group gathering without feeling too stiff or formal.
Highly recommend Vancouver Cider House for small team events or group celebrations - we'd absolutely come back!

Excellent in all regards! Mushroom burger was better than a lot of real burgers I've had. Cider selection was very enjoyable, and our server was quite knowledgeable about their cider offerings. Full marks for attentive but not smothering service. If I were in Van more often, I'd be a regular!

Great atmosphere, super nice and very considerate of allergies. Food was amazing me and my partner try to make excuses to come here more often.

We had a nice time here. Its a bit small but nice relaxed vibe. We were told we would need to leave after an hour or so because they had an event on which was a shame. I got a flight for around $17 - some ciders incurred extra costs.
Loved the cider flights, the food is also vegan & the location so close to the beach!

We did a partial buyout with the Cider House for a large group dinner and social with 30 people. It was perfect. We had the full inside of the restaurant for our group, and they kept the patio open for walk-ins. Nikki was so helpful over email setting up the event. The staff the night of our event was so quick and attentive. The drink and food menu met all our guest's dietary needs, even the kids. For our guests that don't usually drink cider, it was just fun! Unique. Memorable. Great spot.

My new favorite restaurant!! The nacho’s and artichoke dip are to die for. The staff always give great cider recommendations and are super friendly.
