Grabbed a couple of tastings and enjoyed the ciders. Had we more time we would have enjoyed more. Service was good and views were nice as well.

Enjoyed a tasting flight based on my preference for sweeter cider and found an absolutely delicious cider (rose petals) that I bought two bottles of to take home. Others were getting small samples to make sure that was what they wanted to take home. The server was super helpful and cheerful also.

Lovely place to spend your time while you are waiting for the ferry. There serve great ciders and bears, a taco cart close by and burgers can be bought close by as well. Extremely friendly.

When you get off the ferry and see the sign that says "Hard Cider" with an arrow, torn right! Whether you've just gotten on then Island or you're waiting for a ferry, BoatHouse is a must stop! The ciders are exceptional in taste, plus they use local apples, and actual real ingredients for the flavors, not fake flavoring. Think real earl grey tea in the Bergamot or real rose petals in the Nootka Rose. This is sadly very uncommon in the cider world these days, so it's a treat to find somewhere that still cares about quality. Prices are higher than many other cideries, both for a pour or a bottle, bit the exceptional quality makes it worth the extra money. Ample seating outside, with views of the ferry terminal, plus food truck fare!

The chai cider was some of the best cider I’ve ever had! It’s also the perfect place to kill some time while your car is parked in the ferry line (it’s just steps away). Each glass of cider costs about $10.
Enjoyed the non-alcoholic mulled cider that's strong on the ginger. Nice popcorn toppings bar, that included nutritional yeast. It also carries books and games, so you can hang out there while waiting for the ferry.
I love this place. The cider is the best. The people working there are so nice. It has a great atmosphere. I love watching the ferries come in and out.

Porch could use shade options but cider and staff are awesome! Food truck (Farm to Ferry) has some great offerings too, check them out!
An oasis while waiting for your ferry. Relax, chat up people next to you. See ferry roll in late. Stay out of hot car.Food truck behind is awesome.Really what’s any better?
Great spot with friendly staff and a unique selection of ciders. Includes some non-alcoholic selections as well. Great spot to wait for the ferry or to watch the boats.
Great selection of cider, super friendly staff, an amazing view and a ton of cool merch! What more could you ask for?
This place is very unique. Great selection of ciders you’d have difficult time finding anywhere else. Fantastic location, right by the ferry, so you can spend time well while waiting on those boats that perpetually run late. Very nice and knowledgeable people working here. Top notch heated outdoor patio. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back.
