Try the Prickly Pear, so good! Not a big hard cider fan until coming here! We had a flight of 5 sample ciders for $13, which is a great deal. Our bartender Jessica was awesome and had such a great personality. She made the visit so enjoyable. It's family friendly and was fun even for my ten year old. Limited seating but definitely comfortable environment. They offer pretzels but do not have food to order. They also had kettle corn and soda available for purchase. Little difficult to find but worth the visit! Will definitely be coming back! read more

Tapped Apple Hard Cider - Flight of 5 sample ciders for $13! - Breweries Near Me - Salida, California

See all

The very first cider house I've been to where they sell Growlers. Their ciders are on point. Usually cider is around 4.5% alcohol content, but these ciders are higher than that. One of my favorite ciders (Cranberry - Apple) they have is 6.9% in alcohol content and the flavors for their ciders are unique. Of course they have regular Apple Cider. One of the more unique flavors I've tried is Lemon Chill-O and Mango Jalapeño. Next time I'm in the area, I would definitely hit this place up again and a get a growler of a different flavor. read more

Tapped Apple Hard Cider - Breweries Near Me - Salida, California

Wow! What a hidden gem! This place is a breath of fresh air! You don't find many cideries around, but of the few, this place takes the gold! Unique flavors and a balance of sweet and dry make these ciders some of the best I have ever had. The owners are super friendly and accommodating. They take the time to talk with each of their customers and they even brought out some non-alcoholic cider for my 2 young kids. My husband and I were passing through on our way to Sacramento and decided to stop and try this place out. So glad we did! It's a shame that we don't live closer, but I will be sure to stop here the next time we drive out this way. The blue Pom was our absolute favorite, but there wasn't a single cider that I didn't like. They are currently open Friday's and Saturdays for tastings. They are in a gated shopping center, so try to come before 7pm, as the gate closes at that time. If you come after 7, no worries, just give them a call and they will buzz you in. You have to give them a try! read more

Found this online and had to zip over to try it. Got there 20 minutes before close and found the staff to be awesome! Got two flights, asked about the business and left with a growler. Can't wait to get back. read more

So this review is a little late. I've been here twice 1st on 8/24 and the 2nd on 8/31. On 8/24 there was so many people. It was my first time and my BF and I planned on buying tacos beforehand, but I looked on their FB and saw that it was "Taco Night". I was pretty excited so my BF and I went. When we got there there was a line out the door. We have never been the kind of people who are upset with a wait. When we got to the register we we ordered 2 flights ($10 each) and a Growler ($20). We were told that there was a wait on the flights because the ran out of glasses. We were both super fine with it and didn't mind waiting. This whole process took probably 25-35mins. We finally went to the back and saw that there was like NO seating. A guy wearing a cider shirt helped us find a table which was so nice. We sat down and started playing dominos (which they had there). We both really like the ciders I have absolutely nothing bad to say about them. They have some funky flavors and they worked. They weren't too sweet and they actually tasted like what they said they were. When we went to get food we saw that the line was crazy long. Like I had said I don't mind waiting. So we waited in line for like 15-20mins. When we reached the lady taking orders I asked for a quesadilla and she tells me they don't have that anymore. I ask her what they do have and she says everything else. So I ask for 2 chicken tacos and she says they don't have that anymore. So I asked if they still had asada and she then tells me that the only thing they have left. Would have been nice to know that when I asked the first time! So we ordered 4 asada tacos($4) and I asked what they had on them and she replied that they're just regular tacos. I asked if they only had meat, salsa, onions and she said yes so we asked for everything. I wanted to walk over to where the condiments were to see if there was anything else on them and this other lady tells us to wait on the other side. I try to tell her I wanted to see what was on the tacos and she raises her voice at me and points around her truck and interrupts me and says go around the truck and wait over there. I don't want you to step on my trailer. She was so rude and barking orders at me and I honestly wanted to just ask for my money back and leave. The lady putting the condiments on asked me once I got to the other side what I had wanted on my tacos and I asked if they had cheese on them and she told me they did. I didn't want cheese on them and so I told her that i didn't want cheese and i wish I would have known they had cheese on them before I said I wanted everything on my tacos. She made our order and handed me a plate with 4 tacos on them just the way I wanted. The lady who was barking orders at me yelled at her and snatched the tacos out of my hands. I have never been treated so horribly. She then proceeded to reprimand the girl who gave me the food in front of everyone. I felt so bad for her she as only trying to help me. When I got my tacos they all had cheese on them and they were cold and horrible. The only reason I am not giving this cider house 5 stars is because of this horrible experience. I will never go back on a Taco Night and I don't recommend others to either. On 8/31 my experience was amazing!! There wasn't as many people and I actually got to talk to the owners and turns out the owner helped us that first day to find a table. They were so helpful and they just sat with us for a bit and told us about themselves and how they started. It was a completely different experience and I would always recommend people to try out this local place, but NEVER on taco night!!! Bring your own food!! Or order delivery!! read more

Tapped Apple Hard Cider - Breweries Near Me - Salida, California

We tried a delicious variety of hard ciders with a flight of all their flavors. Original has a full apple flavor with a drier finish. Blue Pom was more sweet and you can really taste the fruits. Next was Lemon-chillo which mixes the original cider with lemonade. That would be refreshing on a hot day! Apricot was our favorite, true stone fruit flavor with a nice finish. Finally was their Concert in the Park, a cranberry apple blend. That was a little tart, but would be good with food. Fun place to check out...please support your local businesses!!! read more

Loved this place!! All of the staff was super friendly and very helpful especially because it was our first time here. The flavors change frequently so we will deff be back ASAP to try them read more

As soon as you walk into tapped Corey and Wells make you feel like your are a part of their family. We came all the way from Vancouver Washington to check out this establishment.

Can't wait until we get to visit again! read more

Tapped Apple Hard Cider - A flight - Breweries Near Me - Salida, California

I fell in love with this place yesterday! My husband and I both got flights and everything was great! I love that it is family friendly. We brought our 8 year old son with us and we really enjoyed hanging out and playing Jenga! The seating area is small but not uncomfortable. Everyone working there was super nice and all the other customers were also very friendly. We took home a growler of the Razz and can't wait to share it with our friends tonight at a bbq we are going to. I can't wait to go back! read more

Small unassuming place with a BIG family vibe. Just walking in, you can tell the owners put all their love into what they do. It may not be like the big mainstream fancy breweries/ cider mills, but WOW it's a perfect spot for a nice flight, good company, and some fun games. My only complaint is they're not open all week! I'd be a regular if that were the case. Truly excellent cider and an awesome place with a lot of room to grow. Keep up the awesome work guys!! read more

Tapped Apple Hard Cider - Delicious flight (my favorite was the Blu Pom and she liked Sleepy Hollow) - Breweries Near Me - Salida, California

I was looking for interesting places to visit after dropping off a kid at camp. I searched for rock shops, glassblowing studios, and cider. Guess which one won... I stopped in just as they were opening for the day, sampled them all. I like sweeter ciders and went home with a of 32 oz growler of Razz and another of Concert in the Park. read more

I was pleasantly surprised! Didn't think I'd enjoy the cider as much as I did. They were all amazing. Did the flight and none disappointed. The staff was super amazing! Very helpful and friendly. I'll be back! read more

Well run business. Takes their time to explain their product to every customer. That being said, the cider was excellent as well!

I realized I'd never reviewed one of my local favorites, and navigating to this page I was thinking if it has any less than five stars, then someone has been drinking too much. I'm not surprised to find it does, in fact, have a five-star rating. Why? Because it is a cider place, and it serves very good cider. And because it is a gathering place, and has very friendly regulars and an excellent atmosphere. There is really not very much more to say. If you would like to go into a building and drink cider and talk to others and smile while doing it, then you should choose to go here. read more

The cider is amazing especially the original n lemon but man the people that were running the taps were actually total dicks with no personality. Exception being the older guy in the tie dye who was super nice and I assume the owner. read more

Made a quick pit stop on our way from Yosemite to Napa to pass the rush hour traffic. In the middle of an abandoned warehouse area so it can be easy to miss since the location is fairly new. But the two owners that have crafted these ciders were serious business! We got a $7 flight and our favorites were the Pom cider, stone fruit cider, and the original apple. Definitely worth stopping by for a taste. Support small business! (: read more

Love love love this place! I have yet to try a cider I didn't like and have taken home many growlers. The owners are very friendly and you definitely get your money's worth! A flight is $7 for 5 tastings and the pours are more generous than other places I've been to. A growler is $15 the first time and then $10 for each refill. read more

My family and I visited the Tapped Apple for the first time yesterday. We enjoyed it and the hard cider flights we ordered. I enjoyed the original apple cider, the prickly pear, the cranberry-apple cider and the Stone Fruit flavors. I did not enjoy Scorched cider flavor. The site was clean and the staff was friendly and considerate. We were sitting outside and they turned on the propane heaters without us having to ask. read more

The cider is so good, it would be worth a 2 hours drive. Which is funny because I have to drive exactly 2 hours just for this experience!!

Love the atmosphere! They switch out the flavors seasonally as well as having a classic on tap. I often have a hard time picking one because I've liked them all . Friends and I like that it's an easy going atmosphere. The owners are always up for lovely chats, they make you feel at home. read more
