Wonderful, farm-to-table dining and fantastic locally made cider in a country style setting, in an old heritage barn! I’m not much of a drinker, but I really do enjoy Farmstrong’s sweet ciders and my wife loves their tarter ones. The food is fantastic, hearty, rustic, well made and just, darn delicious. The barn is quaint, has bench style seating and antique farming tools to admire, while you drink your cider and enjoy the delicious food.

My wife loves their dill pickle pizza with fresh dill and house made pickles and my favourite is the brisket sandwich, which is top notch. Their homemade potato salad is the best I have ever had, and I immediately went home and tried to replicate it.

It can be quite busy on the weekends and it is seasonal, so if you are going for brunch, get there earlier. They are open at night and have heaters when it gets colder, and cozy blankets are available, but be aware that it is in an old heritage barn and it does have gaps in the walls. I would also suggest looking at the menu online and deciding what to have before you get there, as you have to order before you sit down. There are menus to look at while you wait, but the service is fast and friendly and the line moves quickly.

As an artist myself, I bought their T-shirt, as it is well made and their merchandise is thoughtful and good quality. All in all, a truly, unique, special place for a date night, or a memorable place to take guests that are visiting. A business that deserves to be supported, as there are not many places around like this.

This place is worth the drive, it has artisan made local BC cider. It makes all other ciders taste like water. They got many different delicious flavours that range from very dry to sweet. You can order online but it's $50 shipping fee, I usually just do a big haul in person and sip on ciders year round.

Restaurant food was good too, had a wait a little for my spring rolls to cool down to hear, very hot. Parking all around, just watch for people in the parking lot.

We had the margarita pizza and butternut squash soup. The ambience was lovely but we wish the soup wasn't as sweet. Would stop by again to try something else on the menu though!

Been here so many times now, can't believe I never left a review! So far I've never had a bad experience. The service is great, full of polite and energetic staff. Very good customer servive. The food here is delicious! The meals are quality, have good portion sizes, very flavourful. They have some changes every couple of weeks for specials like pizza and appies, but if you are here and the dill pickle pizza is on special, just order it. It's amazing. The cider the are known for is also so good. My favorite is the hopped, but the pear is also super sweet in a good way. Worth the trip out for some scenic views also! Don't miss out!

Excellent food and service. Beef dip was superb. Great to know that the meat comes from the cattle raised in the farm and the bread is made in house. Staff were efficient and freindly. Lovely ambiance with seating in the old barn. Heaters were great but kept out jackets on. The code was crisp and they had a nice light lager on tap for my partner who doesn't fancy cider. Overall a great date night!

The portion was generous and the combination of flavors was nothing short of amazing. My salad bowl was equally impressive, with everything extremely fresh and vibrant. The ingredients were top-notch, and the presentation was delightful.
