This barn has a very unique vibe to it. The owner is nice and the place is dog friendly. Ciders are on the sour side, we enjoyed the mulled cider. Overall a pleasant experience.

Our very first cider experience at Julian! We did the flights and their cider were pretty average. Loved the barn bar, and outside area with small fire pits. Plenty of places to sit and enjoy. Felt that the Spanish music playing all night did not go along with the theme of the cidery. lol. Also Wish they served food or appetizers.

This place takes it away for location and vibe. The dreamy ambiance is elevated by fireplaces and so much seating inside and around in the orchard. This joint is perfect for hanging out with friends for some post-pie (in the city) cider and long chats. Last time I was here we were around for about 6 hours and it was great. I wish they had a bigger cider menu and some food and this would be a perfect place for hangouts.

My spouse and I frequently stop here when we are in the area. I enjoy the seasonal options. Staff is always friendly, too. Plus visitors get to walk the orchard while sipping the cider.Parking: There are two lots on either side of the cidery.

We just sit here, every trip, and take some time to watch the day roll past. This time there was hot cider available with spices, to enjoy crisp air and poofy clouds sailing overhead...

The ambiance is lovely. The bar service is helpful and kind. There was no food available, which is okay since we stopped in for the cider. Maybe it was a bad batch but not a single cider in the flight that we got was good. Hoping the next time we go will be better.

The best if the best! The staff is genuine, knowledgeable and kind. Beautiful ambiance eith the best tasting cider i have ever encountered. All organic, wild ferment, no sugar added. Makes for the perfect beverage. I wish there was access to their cider in stores or restaurants. However it does make it special to have to drive to this magical spot for a taste

This was had an awesome vibe and a ton of apple trees. It’s a great place to meet up with friends or go on a date. The cider wasn’t my favorite but the flight of 4 was only $14. They said they switch their cider often so I would go back to try new flavors.

Real nice spot in a barn on an orchard with a beautiful bar, picnic tables extending into an orchard. It was slammed like the rest of the area in October when I went and they only had two people working so it took a bit to get my cider but it really hit the spot.
