May 2025 update: Arsenal is back in Cleveland!! The tasting room is open on weekends and they brought back many of our favorite ciders as well as some new ones. They are open Fridays and Saturdays but will likely expand as their crew is trained.
Keep an eye on their social media for events, food trucks and musicians. They also have their own parking lot across from their building on 45th, so you don't have to compete for spots on the street.
They have hard cider varieties from dry to semi-sweet to appeal to just about every preference. They have non-alcoholic cider in cans or sometimes on tap as well as a good selection of beers from local brewers. Don't miss the sorbet they make with their ciders!!

Honestly, we went in and it was completely dead, I'm not sure people know about this place but they totally should! The bartender was awesome and took great care of us and was nice and social. It was my bf and my good friend's birthday celebration so it was a very small group of us (kinda nice having the place to ourselves for the brief time we were there). Bartender hooked up the birthday boy/girl with some sorbet (delicious) and just provided us with a nice little night out. They have a few small games which made our little visit fun. The ciders, however, which are the stars of the show here, are AMAZINGGG! I love a good cider to begin with but a cider mead is a go-to for me. Definitely need to stop in and check this place out! Next time I go I'd love to see it packed to the brim.

This place wouldn’t be Arsenal Cleveland without De’Angelo. I’ve been to every location and the hospitality isn’t as significant as the Cleveland location (and that says something, coming from a Pittsburgher!) food was discontinued a few months ago, and have had a few failed snack attempts since then ($20 ‘Charcuterie’ boards consisting of mid cheese and crackers, bags of chips and peanuts) - not exactly given as much attention as the other locations, atmosphere is okay, the focus is the bar and the one TV, additionally has lots of table seating. Offers trivia once a week, used to have live music and was once talking about bingo which had a petition for all the customers interested. A lot of customers appreciate De’Angelo and the atmosphere he creates, otherwise I don’t think this bar would be much of a hit. Cider is and has always been consistently good -

One of the best places that I have had for cider. Deangelo (our bartender) Is an absolute joy and incredibly knowledgeable about all the ciders that are available to arsenal. He is truly the backbone of this establishment here in Cleveland. I could not think of a better individual to interact with. He is extremely professional and has always been accessible with timely customer service. We try to come to Arsenal cider House as much as we can not only for the cider, but also for the great laughs and Friendships established.

Their website is outdated as they do not serve food anymore. The man behind the bar is super friendly. Chill even, vibing. The overall feel of the place is pretty nice. It is.... rather expensive for their cider though.... It was tasty for sure. It's so expensive though you don't really have much of a choice but to slowly sip it otherwise you'll spend $90 in 10 minutes.I would have loved to stay longer than I did. But 3.5 (they have a half glass size) glasses between 3 people and a mild tip was 40$

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I recently visited Arsenal Cider House and had an exceptional experience. Our waiter, DiAngelo, was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the various ciders they offer. As someone from the West of Europe where cider is a big thing, I was initially skeptical about trying American cider. However, this place completely changed my perspective. The cider here is excellent and easily competes with the European cider I'm accustomed to. The atmosphere was inviting, the service was top-notch, and the cider selection was impressive. I highly recommend this cider house to anyone looking for a delicious cider experience in Cleveland.

Chill atmosphere. Quiet place on a Friday night at 7pm for us. You go to the bar to order food or drinks. They do have sandwiches and pretzels. Also veggies and ranch for the gluten free people. The ciders are very good. We parked at metro 1 street down. But otherwise it's street parking. Oh and all ciders are gluten free.

Arsenal makes the best cider in all of Ohio. So many great options and they’re DRY! Along with sweet options but the Bone Dry cider is amazing.

De’Angelo was a delight! Very attentive and friendly. The ciders here are fantastic and a good variety of flavors and sweetness levels. I really appreciate the ability to sample different ones, and the flight of ciders is a great deal.
Great cider and live tunes! Chill atmosphere!
