The food is excellent, with generous portions at reasonable prices. The cafe has a folksy ambiance and a friendly, playful dog that greets visitors. Customers can enjoy eclectic findings and old school candy while dining. The pancakes are a must-try, and the service is top-notch, making it a memorable dining experience worth the drive.

The cafe is spacious and welcoming, making it a great place to visit, especially on a beautiful fall day. While it can be busy, the friendly staff ensures a pleasant experience. The lunch menu features a large variety, including homemade soup and generous desserts. The ham salad sandwich is stuffed and among the best ever tasted. Visitors often enjoy grabbing breakfast before picking apples, with the breakfast sandwich sometimes priced higher. The cafe is also known for its kid-friendly atmosphere, with farm animals out back that children can feed and pet. Visitors should arrive early to avoid long waits and enjoy scenic views while indulging in a "critter treat" for the animals.

Recent visitors had a wonderful lunch with many enjoying the specialty ham and apple open face sandwich, which can also be ordered with turkey. The Halupki soup, grilled cheese, and potato salad received praise for being delish. Staff members were quick to get a clean table and deliver food and beverages efficiently. The atmosphere is adorable, and shoppers can enjoy looking at the items for sale on the way out. Some visitors experienced confusion about orchard access, but it has been a few years since their last picking adventure on the hill.

The food is very fresh and feels unique on the menu. One guest’s older child loved the open face apple/ham sandwich, while their younger child enjoyed grilled cheese. The reviewer liked the vegetable panini, and there was so much food that leftovers lasted for dinner. Kids particularly enjoyed the coconut cake and apple crisp. Many visitors plan to return. A charming, older dog, likely a retriever, wanders around the restaurant and sits between tables and on the porch, adding to the cozy atmosphere. Some tables are picnic style and shared with other diners who are very accommodating with children. Around the store’s perimeter are gift items, specialty Jared foods and cheeses, and various candies.

The perfect rustic breakfast experience at a genuine u-pick orchard, complete with cafe dog. Guests try nearly everything on the menu, finding it simply delicious. Although breakfast items are popular, those eating lunch also seem very satisfied, with many smiling faces enjoying their meals. The friendly environment and scenic views make Apple Hills Cafe a delightful destination for a day out on the hill.
