Stable Craft Brewing

The service is great. The food is really good however, the chicken quesadilla is not the best. I…read morehad an issue of hardly any chicken being in the quesadilla and that was a while ago. A couple of weeks ago, myself & my husband were there for the Renaissance Fair (THAT WAS SPECTACULAR!!) . As I was waiting in line a lady came up and complained about the chicken quesadilla, which had hardly any meat. So I'd wouldn't recommend that particular item in the menu. That is about the only negative thing I can say about this place. We really enjoy coming to STABLE CRAFT brewing.

My husband had the Smokehouse Platter and thought it offered plenty of tasty food. I had the Carolina Gold Chicken Crusty Roll and upgraded my side to the Charred Corn Succotash. Absolutely delicious!! After lunch, we walked the property, visiting the horses, donkey, and stables. Played an assortment of outdoor games they had available, too, such as Donut Toss, Cornhole Golf, Sand Volleyball, and Outdoor Connect Four. Stable Craft Brewing also has lodging available. We're seriously considering a trip to do just that! We found this place during travel. Its laid-back atmosphere, fabulous music, great food, and fun entertainments were well worth the visit. Highly recommend!

Friendly service, bathrooms on site and Adirondack chairs in the shade or sun to relax!

I have been to this orchard twice. It's about a two and a half hour drive from me, but…read moreunquestionably worth it! The drive itself is gorgeous, peaceful, therapeutic even. You get to enjoy rolling hills, blue mountains, farms with their herds, and the wonderful Yoder's Amish market. You'll also pass tons of distilleries, wineries, and what seems like never-ending festivals in Gordonsville. Why drive out to this orchard? First off, they actually choose their apple varieties based on taste and texture, as opposed to familiarity alone. You can tell that they really work hard to get the best of the best as soon as you taste one. Their apples are so crisp and so packed with flavor! The varieties are amazingly unique, and many of them are difficult to find. Some varieties are not available at any other orchard here, much less in the stores. Now, don't miss this--their unpasteurized apple cider is insanely delicious!! Just don't give it to wee ones two or younger. You can taste all of the ridiculous variety of apples the goes into them. The flavor is so complex, and it is not in the least overly sweet. If you go, get some! You won't regret it at all. They tend to keep samples available for different apples and for their cider. I'm told the pasteurizing crocks the flavor. You can definitely taste the difference. Maybe bring a cooler for this as well. Right now in October, you can find the amazing Ambrosia apple pre-picked (delightful floral notes, immense coconut-like flavor, citrus notes, almost doesn't taste like apple with your eyes closed. I've even had some of these that taste spicy like cinnamon. They're quite amazing! I swear it actually reminds me of the old ambrosia salad haha), crimson crisp EverCrisp (my personal favorite--a gigantic apple with crunch and immense tangy flavor and juiciness for days that is said to last 6 months under refrigeration without degrading in texture and even stays crunchy after baking!), Gold Rush, Candy Crisp, Rome, and more. As far as the common varieties--golden delicious, red delicious, pink lady, stayman, Albermarle Pippin--you will find those here too, but they still have an out of this world flavor. Their trees are grown on dwarf rootstock, meaning that even your youngest kids can easily pick their own apples, and you can pick easily from the entire tree because they don't get but so tall. What makes this orchard stand out is truly an endless list. So, another factor is that they charge the exact same price ($2/lb) for all apple varieties, pre-picked or not. Don't worry, the varieties are not a result of genetic modification. Everything has been thought of here. They have wagons for carrying your apples as you pick. They pack your apples in paper bags that are super sturdy. They actually live in Northern VA and donate their apples to homeless shelters, food banks, and DC area charities. They also don't sell you messed up apples just because you picked it. They encourage you to taste because, to know what you like. The customer service is phenomenal. The people are so friendly, sincere, passionate, and helpful in every way possible, be it for choosing apples, finding things to do in the area, or really anything they can help with. It's a family business filled with love. The actual orchard itself is gorgeous with amazing views. The great thing is that it is still new, so it's not swarmed with people at any point. You can leisurely enjoy your time. Even the furthest fruits didn't feel excessively or unpleasantly far of a walk. I loved that they did not clear grasses out on the path for navigating the orchard, so it doesn't get muddy, slimy, or sludgy in the area where you walk. They are still expanding, and they are planning to add a baked goods portion of the business, refrigerators, indoor bathrooms (they have portable potties with the outdoor portable sinks with soap and water now.). They encourage you to bring a picnic with you. They do have picnic tables onsite. One very important detail--you MUST bring food with you for the drive. You will hit some spots that do not have food options if you're coming from Richmond. It happens right around the time you'll be super hungry. The people at the orchard did recommend me a restaurant in their area along a local river walk called Before and After, but pretty much everything closes at 5, Yoder's included. I was also told Yoder's sandwiches and ice cream are really great. I can attest to some amaaazing artisan style jams in the most inventive flavors. Going in the same direction, you can find an animal rescue zoo, Shenandoah River State Park (about an hour away), Shenandoah National Park, a water park, and more. Ready to go yet?! I hope so!

But in the past couple of years, a certain maps program has been rerouting me past Bridgewater and Churchville in favor of another route to Goshen. I can only assume it's because the company who owns that maps program (rhymes with frugal) is evil, and did not want me to find one of the cutest little cafes that opened in 2019 in the quaint little one horse town. How dare you: (rhymes with Kugal). And ya know... the only reason I decided to drive through Churchville and Bridgewater this time was because of a super slow driver on Route 42 that was driving me nuts... and I just couldn't continue on 42 behind them ANYMORE. So, 2006-ish red Subaru Outback, please accept my rescission of all of my prior comments made to myself in my car driving behind you, and let me thank you, for sending me through an old stomping ground and consequently to MTN Mystic Gallery and Coffee. So now that we've gotten those completely asinine details out of the way... MTN Mystic serves a number of purposes in the town of Churchville including but not limited to: A gift shop, a local cafe, an art gallery, a jam band spot, a painting class venue... the list goes on and on. I was in need of a small gift for someone who had been caring for Toast that weekend and came across a plethora of adorably potted succulents and cacti that were so reasonably priced that I ended up buying 5 of them lol. Yes... I did. And guess what... sitting here now, I'm sort of regretting that I didn't buy more. The two people that worked at MTN Mystic ( A woman and man - whom I believe to be the owners) were just about the sweetest people I've met in a long long time. They were both so welcoming and ready to answer any and all questions. Side note, they also think French Toast is very cute which immediately gives them both bonus points and street cred. Turns out that the woman there actually made a bunch of jewelry in a small section of the cafe/gift shop where I also ended up purchasing a pair of adorable bumble bee earrings from her stand for my friend. Now let's talk about the drink I got. I ended up getting an iced coffee and I asked them to add cream. I will say... it was a little heavier on the cream than I would have gone... but it was also the amount of cream that I always WANT to put in my coffee but never do lol. So... one won't kill me right? ;) Throughout the cafe gift shop you can tell that they pay attention to detail. The chalkboard signage, which the man there actually did, is quite colorful and absolutely beautiful. In terms of the iced coffee, they included iced cubes that were made out of coffee #ManyBonusPoints, and a funny little wacky plastic straw which... ya know... I don't know what to say about that one lol. But... ya know what... If they're trying to make that their signature, it's something that I certainly won't forget anytime soon haha. This is gonna be a legit planned stop on my way down to Goshen next time. No more listening to that twisted maps app (rhymes with Caboodle #TM). I'm 100 percent going through Churchville cause I just can't wait to see what I find at this little eclectic spot next.
