SLO Cider

By far the dopest taproom in SLO. Even if You don’t usually do cider, give this place a shot. Everything they have tastes great and the staff is awesome!

The atmosphere is awesome. Great people there. Feels homey!!

Really nice place to relax! Not too crowded for after work drinks and the cider is the best!

Love SLO cider! Order the Holiday during the Christmas season! Amazing!

Great cider, friendly people, rad designs, cool merch! Loved it!

Amazing fresh, fruity ciders without the elevated sugar levels of typical grocery store ciders.

The best place to hang in SLO. Dog friendly and delicious cider.

Great atmosphere. Incredible cider...how can one go wrong?

Delicious dry ciders and a fantastic team! Always a fun time.

Some of the best cider I've ever had !!!

Great environment and rockin' cider!

Chris is a GREAT guy with Fantastic Ciders

Amazing Cider and attentive staff. Will be back.

Great atmosphere. Great cider.

Great cider, friendly people!

Great staff. Good selection of ciders. They were setting up for a comedy show while we were there.

My husband and I are new to the cider world and we received a wonderful introduction to the many types and flavors produced by SloCider. Glad to see how passionate the brewers are about their product. We look forward to learning and tasting more at their vibrant and comfortable place, (walking distance from our home doesn’t hurt! 🤗) meanwhile we can order their products on line.

Great new Cidery! Enjoyed the grand opening - it has a comfortable feel as a place to unwind and I also liked the dry rose' cider. The owners do a nice job and are really up on their craft of cider making.

I was at SLO Cider for their cold open and, being new to cider, decided to try the flight. Honestly, they were all great - crisp and refreshing, not sour. My favorite was the hopped cider. I'll be back next time we are in town. Good work Nate and crew! Can you send some to Minnesota?

Always a great experience! Kate and Sierra are awesome! The owners, Nate, Chris, and Jeremy are great! The ciders show the fruit but not sweet. Love the atmosphere. So glad they are here in the county.

Recently, I attended an evening event at SLO Cider and it was a fun, relaxing and friendly venue for a party. The Oakes cider was very tasty as well as the Tropical cider. I plan to return soon to try all the other ciders. It’s definitely worth a visit!

Nate is simply the best. He does an incredible job and is kind and truly hilarious. Their cider is UNMATCHED in quality and taste. Also, Coral is amazing and can describe any cider and make your day bright!!!

Loved this place. Great options! We loved every single one, but our favorite was Agave Lime and Cranberry. Highly recommend this place if you’re a cider fan.

We loved the grand opening and I have become a huge cider fan. My favorite is the rosé. This cider pairs so well with snacks and Netflix as well as an elegant dinner. The customer service has been amazing.!

I hate cider. It sucks. I thought I would hate this place, but damn the watermelon cider was pretty bomb!! Karaoke was great, staff was cool. Great spot.

We loved the grand opening and have been getting through this quarantine with our ciders in hand! Excellent customer service as well- they delivered the ciders to our home on the same day. Love the rose flavor!

Koral is the most amazing bartender! She is super attentive, knowledgeable of ciders, and kind and welcoming to all! Her service definitely made me vote 5!

This place is something else. The owner ate half of my food and laughed manically. I mean quite an iconic place. Love the cider too!!

Amazing collection of ciders on tap with a really chill atmosphere. Staff is amazing and thoughtful. If cider is your thing, this is your place in SLO.

The grand opening was super fun and thankfully they're open for pickups so I can still have their amazing cider at home! The Hopped Cider is incredible.

Best cider i have ever experienced! Could take it nationwide if they wanted to because it is that good :)

I can't wait for SLO Cider to open its doors again. I love the cider -- and the experience – and will definitely be taking visitors here too!

A real class act establishment. The best cider I’ve been able find in the whole state, specifically the offshore cider. If you are a cider person this is a must go.

This is a special place. The ciders were amazing. My favorite was the hopped. They have done a really good job with the 70's vibe and the art is amazing. Jeremy is doing a great job coming up with fun ciders that made me love cider again. It is also the only place in SLO where I have been able to get mead and cyser. I cannot wait to see what will be next on tap. I have already signed up for the cider club and am looking forward to my shipment.

A great place to visit. If you like cider, or if you are a newbie, this is the place in SLO! Really good ciders, with a wide flavor profile. The owners are great people and the staff is friendly. Also, if you visit, tell them that they should can "bubblegum". Highly recommend....

Awesome calm vibes, nice peaceful view to have some really tasty cider. I don't like dry ciders typically, but these were extremely easy to drink and tasted great! Will definitely be returning!

Honestly, this place is amazing. Nate was doing paperwork and the establishment wasn’t technically open the afternoon we came and he welcomed us with open arms. Every cider I tasted was amazing. He made us feel very welcome. Answered all our questions and never rushed us. I’ve tasted many cider companies around the county. SLO Cider is by far the best on the Central Coast. If I could give ten stars, I would. If you come to SLO and love cider, this place is a must!

Had THE best time at SLO Cider Co. last night. I already love their canned rose cider but I usually order it from Alehouse since I live in Los Osos. I was extra excited to visit this location for the first time and bonus, it fell on run club night! Burgers, cider, and run club made for a 10/10 Wednesday!

Great atmosphere and filled with people who enjoy their unique menu of ciders. Need to try their base (dry) in a flight along with other flavors that are based on this. Really enjoyed the unfiltered dry, and think my favorite flavored version was the cranberry.

A low key hard cider spot with great outdoor seating (pet friendly). We were newcomers to this place and Coral the bartender welcomed us with great gusto. She saw that we had a difficult time with the menu and offered a deal to let us have two flights of all 12 drinks on the menu for the price of 10. There were many ciders that are interesting conversation starters, such as the Oaked, Rose and the Watermelon. Coral provided prompt service to us while giving us the backstory for many of the ciders we tasted. I would definitely come back!

SLO Cider Co. is the best cider that I have ever tasted. It is clean and refreshing. You can enjoy it straight out of the beautiful cans or mix it up with any fruit for a quick cocktail. Suffice to say that my favorite is the Tropical. Since we need to stay home right now, this is something to look forward to everyday and it goes with every meal. The intelligent, fun energy of the owners and the cool vibe of the bar make it a great place to chill.

Check out this place! Really cool and good drinks Ok, I was leery at first, kinda a 70’s rock theme place. Coral was so friendly and knowledgeable about the ciders (I had no idea they could be so complex) & I loved the information. She made a quick stop into a fun afternoon 😁 Great prices and tasty stuff! So glad we found this SLO Cider Co. Rocks! 😎 The Oaked tested like it has liquor in it. The Blood Orange just sweet enough. My favorite is the Classic. Described as a European cider, perfectly balanced sweet and tart! Try it today.

We tasted a flight of all the available ciders, and they were all so good we bought some of each to take home. Well made, delicious, unique, friendly staff, and spoke with the owner and production team. Great to see people making handcrafted, high-quality ciders for us to enjoy.

Met Nate today and he killed it on our tasters and pours. All the ciders are absolutely fantastic and I’m an IPA guy so I don’t even like ciders! Great mustache too! Definitely recommend this spot if you’re into having a good time!

This place is amazing. The staff are super friendly and helpful. Can not say enough good things about the people behind this amazing brand. They are always supporting great local causes like the Food Bank and Women’s Legacy Fund. Support SLO Cider they are awesome.

Their ciders are great, super tasty! A bit tricky to find their tasting room, butvthe signs helped. Highly recommend visiting them - we bought several to take home!

It's always a great place to be. Welcoming and friendly environment for everyone. My favorite Cider by far!

Popped in SLO Cider for a flight and made a friend. Thank you Emma for giving me local recs and good cider.

Came here with my friend with my friend who was visiting and we really loved it! We got a flight of cider so we were able to taste a little of everything and they were all really delicious. They’re in the process of renovating but the atmosphere and environment was really great, and even offered us blankets since it was chilly outside. Kate was super nice and awesome! Will definitely be back and can’t wait to see how they’re patio area ends up looking.

No food trucks but snacks are available. Hoping for a better selection of them in the future but I have a blast and had no idea that puzzles were so much fun. Unpretentious, fun staff and guests, great dogs and well behaved kids. Will definitely be coming back.

Newer place in town. Delicious and completely gluten free set of ciders. Dog-friendly patio, great Covid-safe setup. Best part, the staff (a woman when we visited) working the counter has a terrific knowledge of every aspect of the ciders. We're just here for the weekend, but we'll definitely hit them again before heading back.

SLO Cider was introduced to my by a friend who frequents California. Being a Colorado craft cider aficionado I wasn’t sure how it would compare, but I have to say that not only is SLO cider good- it is DELICIOUS! Beautifully balanced and so drinkable and tasty. Bravo to the SLO Cider team... I’m impressed and can’t wait to try more!

I’ve always liked cider and had been hearing about this place for years. Was finally in town (I live in Austin), and decided ah screw it, let’s check it out. I’m glad I did! Shawn and Jill were amazing hosts and I learned so much about cider and got to try so many different things with my flights. My husband isn’t much of a cider guy himself, but he really enjoyed everything he had tonight at SLO Cider. I’m kinda sad SLO Cider is far away from Austin. This joint would go hard on 6th Street. Hopefully I’m back in town sooner than later, because I can’t wait to have another flight of delicious cider.

Tons of different ciders to try. We did 2 flights, so tried 10, but there were a few more we didn't try. If you like sweet and fruity ciders, they have good options. Would highly recommend.

Lovely wait staff, very welcoming environment. LGBTQ+ decor on the walls and very friendly atmosphere. Dog friendly

Something different to try

SLO Cider Co. isn't "craft" cider... it's industrial cider. But it's pretty good for industrial cider, and a handful of their ciders are pretty solid. Not very dry, but they have a very flexible and generous membership program and the venue is fun and has some cool events, especially the free open mic comedy on Thursdays!

The staff is friendly and helpful. The ciders were mostly fruity. The dry cider and the forager were yummy although very different from one another, we also liked the Pride one with its strawberry flavor, it felt like summer.

Felt a bit dark and gloomy. Cave-like atmosphere. Customers with potty mouths who must have had too much of the cider, which was, admittedly, pretty tasty. Didn't have any place to sit outside on a nice sunny Sunday. Was shorted on my change.
