The place is located in the countryside in a beautiful setting, once entered we were welcomed in such a kind and sweet way, we were told all the instructions and given a menu and then we ordered cider tastings and a cheese board. The whole staff is so knowledgeable and sweet, they help you decide what you prefer and they are so patient and kind. The whole building has an alpine vibe and wooden atmosphere which makes it so cozy. I loved everything about this experience, it’s definitely recommended! They have seats inside or outside, the place is very spacious!

Exceptional and authentic farm to table experience. Perfection.

This place is amazing. We only planned to stop by and ended up coming back for a second day and signing up for the cider club. Every single thing we tasted was great - not one thing I wouldn’t drink. Everything from super dry to sweet and fruity - the Pioneer Pippan (crabapple cider) was my favorite, sweet and tart.
The vibe is amazing both inside and out. AC in a cabin vibe when needed and Adirondacks overlooking the lake when the weather is good.
The snacks were just as good! We caught the chef outside picking currants for the charcuterie boards and spoke with him in length about the property. Yurts for rent!!
Pick your own strawberries. Poke at baby cows. Look out over the lake.

Had a glass of cider and the Choripan sandwich. The sandwich consisted of a piece of sausage about the size is my little finger with uncooked onions and peppers on a dry roll. There was a side salad which was mostly bitter spinach and arugula. The sandwich contents fell from the bottom is the roll into my lap and the salad was inedible. All of this set me back about $35.00. There is no service since you go give your Order in line and pick it up when they page you. I can not recommend this place and will not rerun. When I asked to speak to the manager I was told they were unavailable.

An unplanned visit to the Finger Lakes Cider House was the best part of our day! The ciders and ice ciders were AMAZING and I couldn’t get enough of the brown butter tart! A beautiful scenic view and most of the staff were so kind and personable! Definitely coming back again! Shout outs to Peter for being such a sweet greeter and providing such a warm welcome! And to Vanessa for the great customer service and being so kind!

We stopped in here for a small bite to eat and a tasting and thoroughly enjoyed both!

The menu had lots of good options and the ciders were delicious. The view from the deck really topped it off as well.

Beautiful establishment with a good vibe for sure.

Make sure to stop here

The farm tour was awesome. We were in a group so we were able to get the farm tour. The grilled cheese was delicious made with another local farm cheese. The beets were great! Some of the people didnt like the vinegarette in our group because they thought it was too tart and vinegary but I enjoyed the flavor because I like that sort of thing. Try a flight of cider to find out what you like and then you can take home a bottle. Overall, stop there and you will enjoy it! The people working there were all very friendly and helpful. I really liked our tour guide.

vegan review: this place is a gem!

service and staff are wonderful, the location is scenic, and for our bachelorette party of 15 there was plenty of space to sit and lounge at picnic tables or in the grass.

i’m so grateful that, when trying to get more food than *just a salad*, since that was the only vegan option, i asked if i could have a side of sourdough and they gave me a bunch of slices and even helped snag some vegan toppings! i told someone that i was eating it with the cumin garlic black beans and she got the chimichurri and pico de gallo which were PERFECT additions to my beans & toast idea. it all paired well with the farmer’s salad.

i’d been excited for the bahn mi (which i saw on the menu in one of the google maps photos, but wasnt on the menu anymore) but everything i got was amazing and made up for my lack of a vegan sandwich option. — i just hate that as a vegan my only options are to eat a pile of lettuce or have to pull sides together so i can have a full meal. the salad here was HEARTY though and they clearly put a lot of thought into everything they make.

got a growler of the young cider as well and it was delicious! very light & juicy with a tiny bit of bubbliness from the fermentation. good if you want something refreshing that won’t put you under the table — it has a low alcohol content.

This place is an absolute gem! The cider selection is phenomenal—so many unique and delicious options to try. You can really taste the care and craftsmanship that goes into each bottle. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable.

It is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the day. The food was a pleasant surprise—fresh, local, and perfectly paired with the cider.

Whether you’re a cider enthusiast or just looking for a great spot to unwind, Finger Lakes Cider House is a must-visit. Can’t wait to come back!

What a gem in the Finger Lakes Region! I was out on business and decided to take the weekend to explore the Finger Lakes area. My friends from the Ithaca area recommended this place. I'm from Washington State, so I have access to well more than 100 cideries and I'm a trad. cider lover (as well as a cider maker). I can say that the cider they are making at this place is outstanding. The King of The North was an incredible dry cider (my favorite of their offerings). I liked it so much that I ordered a mixed case when I got home. The charcuterie plate made a great lunch. In all, the experience was great and extremely reasonable, making it a good value. I wish I was closer to visit more often but you can bet that I'll continue to order from afar! Visited on 11/16/24

45 minute wait for food cider was way over complicated didn’t even taste like cider no wines available for the women like the web site said never again

The place is nice ......... unfortunately they were overwhelmed during my vist and lost my ticket for my food order after 40 mins I ordered a second drink and asked about my order which I was told was not even on the board to be prepared yet after an hour had passed I went back in and was told they lost my ticket....... they rushed to prepare a charcuterie board and when it was handed to me it had a hair in it ...... they re made it for me a second time .... for me to only discover a second hair in it when I got to the table .... angry and having wasted enough time of my day we got up and left .....
Nice atmosphere but they really need to hire more help or just go for the cider and skip the food service

Awesome farm venue, cider, food, and service! Perfect and flexible flight options with a spectrum of ciders to try, something for every palate. No surprise that Honeoye is their most popular cider, it's a must-try, absolutely fantastic! Fun and unique ice ciders and apple spirits as well; ice ciders like apple dessert wine, rich and sweet, and spirits a bit stronger of course, but still a well-balanced delight. Toasted cornbread is excellent, and a great complement to a cider flight, very nice with their jalapeño honey butter. Ginger palmier is a fun little try, the ginger compliments the cider as well. Ginger hazelnut baklava is delicious, a must-try dessert item! Also pictured is their Belgian chocolate tart, which looks amazing but we had enough food already.

Everything was great! Farm to table food, we ordered olives, cornbread, the grilled cheese and tomato soup.
We definitely came home with some cider! And hope to visit again some day!
