Had an awesome tour, tasting, and lunch at Cedar Ridge Distillery on 11/20/25. Our guide, Ashton couldn't have been better! The bourbon tasting and food were outstanding! Thanks to Ashton and the folks at Cedar Ridge for a great day!!

It was great time food was great

Superb pizza and great view. Flavorful drinks. Lovely house salad with yummy dressing. The server seemed discombobulated and underwhelmed with their job. Right off 389, so definitely worth a stop. It is IOWA bourbon, so be sure to set your expectations at the right level. A great spot to connect hang out and have fantastic food and fun drinks. We could have stayed longer.

Have enjoyed visiting Cedar Ridge for a number of years. Great food and drinks in a very nice setting. Today was my first time having their Sunday Brunch which was exceptional. Great service and bourbon as well! We look forward to coming here when visiting from Minnesota.

Love this place. Always come by for food & awesome drinks when coming to Iowa City, BUT why have a LOUD band play in the largest indoor space when nearly everyone here is just looking for a bite & a drink! Really does not fit the vibe of this cool place.

This is a great distillery! For me, the best value whiskey today. My only issue is that they are in Iowa and I am in Washington. Dan R.

My only experience at an Iowa winery (we went for the wine). Other spirits like whiskey at a winery is not something you see in Virginia. The facility is large and efficient and I discovered that not all upper Midwest wine is sweet---a dry, bold red called Frontenac was perfect for the brisk day. You could spend all day here roaming the property and unwinding. Worth a look if you're visiting eastern Iowa.

Very nice distillery. Had a great lunch there and picked up 2 bottles. Looking forward to our next visit.

Outstanding core and innovative whiskeys.

Great pizzas and good wine.

Love sitting on the patios listening to music amidst the grape vines.

Really nice ,atmosphere but the hours are really strange. You would expect establishment to have longer openning hours than weekdays . I'm sure they are having a reason but however it's very strange
