Breakfast is the 🏆

Great meal! We even enjoyed the petting zoo afterwards. The apple pancakes were delicious but we cant stop thinking about the malted waffles!

I've eaten breakfast here. Great farm-rustic atmosphere. I am disappointed that a farm restaurant doesn't seem to use real butter. The scrambled eggs did not seem farm fresh either. Their bread is hearty, though.

The parking was easy. The place looked amazing. It was spacious inside. We went in the morning on Sun. It was busy. The food was delicious. The price was reasonable. The restrooms were clean. The people who worked there were friendly and helpful. We also got a dozen donuts to go.

Family atmosphere. Very friendly and kind staff. Went on a Sunday when it was very busy before the Christmas holiday with Santa present. It was so busy.

A gorgeous drive on a fall day. Busy, so a bit of a wait, and don't expect to chat while you wait-building acoustics horrible. Server was excellent; food a bit slow to arrive (45 minutes; but it was busy). Lunch menu has a large variety including homemade soup (expensive) and desserts (generous). Nice there is a choice of sides with the large sandwiches - on homemade bread. My ham salad sandwich was stuffed and the best I've ever had. Prices for lunch okay; I just could never bring myself to eat breakfast here though...$11 for a breakfast sandwich is way beyond my budget.

I love coming here to grab breakfast before heading out to pick apples. I’ve been quite a few times and have picked other fruit in different seasons. I forgot which they stopped but years ago I picked strawberries and raspberries here too. I also come around Christmas for breakfast with Santa. It gets mobbed here so come as early as possible. I love the wall of spices and sprinkles, I left with a bunch. Don’t forget to pickup a “critter treat” to feed the goats and donkey just behind the restaurant. They now also have a little spot out back with food, so if you were there today, they only served breakfast but the place out back has some bbq and picnic food that sounded good. Love the variety of apples to pick and the scenery in the distance is so pretty.

Parking: Lots of parking but getting there early will make it easier on yourself.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly, farm animals out back that kids can feed and pet. During Christmas time, they can come to meet Santa and have breakfast. They also do small gingerbread houses.

Not the nicest staff
Waited half an hour next to the kitchen for a pick up, sandwich and soup, ended up asking for refund and leaving

It's packed. Expect a 10-20min wait to be seated. The pancakes were really good but the rest of the food was average. They have a u-pick sunflower field and apple orchard, also a haunted barn and small petting zoo. Came for the food and ended up checking out the whole place. Quaint family-friendly place.

I didn’t get to go to the restaurant (come early!!! Like before opening), but I got to experience everything else Apple Hills has from the cafe to the Apple picking to the sunflower picking to the animal petting. It was so fun! Perfect for dates or family gatherings or even just hanging out. I loved it and the energy was so beautiful. All workers are so kind. I can’t wait to come back for the pancakes.

This is the restaurant at Apple Hills Farms, which also has apple and blueberry picking, seasonally, on site. When you enter the restaurant, you walk through a little gift shop, which has some nice artisanal crafts like candles, artwork, jewelry, etc, bulk spices, and also typical cheap gimmicky gift shop toys. Then you seat yourself in the restaurant, inside or on the patio. The cabin-like building and farm view reminded me of camping. It's a pretty big space with lots of tables, but there were signs up saying that 4 people is the maximum per table (at least outside), so if your family is bigger than 4 you'll have to split up. We sat outside because it was a little quieter, but were warned that there would be bees around. Don't sit outside if you don't want to dine with the bees. We poured some syrup onto an extra plate and sat it on the far side of the table from us, and that actually seemed to somewhat work to keep the bees distracted from our plates.
Service was good. Our waiter was nice and attentive enough, and the wait for food wasn't too long even though they seemed busy.
I ordered a short stack of pancakes with apples. The short stack of only 2 pancakes doesn't sound like much on paper, but they're massive - as big as your face. I was full with the short stack even without getting the meat on the side. It was easy to finish though because they were great pancakes, very fluffy, filled with pieces of fresh, juicy apple. It's a pretty good deal, pricewise.
It was a nice breakfast and an interesting change of pace from diners or typical brunch restaurants. I would go back.
