Stem Ciders

I am not often in downtown, but when I am, I try at least one of their cideries to see what the buzz is about.Stem is probably one of the better ones I have tried in recent years down here. Though they are a struggle to get to (thanks inner-city navigation!), they got the place all laid out for your arrival. They also repurposed some deli coolers to serve you some packs ice cold if you wanted some on the go.We decided to also try the food while we were here. The truffle fries were okay, definitely not something I'd recommend coming here for.

Came to Stem before a Rockies game, and enjoyed the experience! It was a nice day, so the patio was already full, so we were seated inside. Nice to have the garage door above the bar open for the fresh air! Ordered a flight of ciders to try a bunch, and all were a little unexpected from what I thought! I got Pear, Lavender, Hibiscus and Peach. None of them were very effervescent, but I actually prefer that! Lavender didn't have as much flavor as I hoped, and Peach wasn't super fruity as I thought. I think next time I'd get a pint of the Hibiscus with ice! We ordered the squash dish, which was REALLY tasty, all ingredients together in a bite was perfect, would order again. Could've used more squash though honestly! Service started out a little slow, but we arrived during a shift change, and then it was spot on and friendly!

Amazing service. So friendly and answered our questions and gave us their "insight" for choices. Had brunch and tasting for start of my Bach weekend and also stopped here in Brew Bike tour later that weekend! Brewery vibes - bathrooms were clean as was the place overall.

I'm a big cider gal, so this place was great! The cider flavors are unique and really go to show what the variety of ciders can look like. My friend and I ordered the charcuterie board and the pretzels to share together, Nothing special about the pretzels, but I did really like the shape of them. The charcuterie board was pretty yummy-although it felt like there could have been more intentionality with the almonds and jam? But not really a big deal. My favorite cider had to be the Neural Nectar! It is really beautifully set up and I like the ambiance of the place as a whole. The only complaint that I had was that it took a bit to get our drinks and to also get sat. Wasn't too long, but had never had that sort of wait in a taproom setting. Would definitely come here again, maybe in a date setting!

My husband and I were traveling to Denver for the first time and this was the first place we stopped. It was chill dog friendly environment. Everyone was super kind and accommodating to our pups! We appreciate all the staff who gave our pups love and were super respectful when asking if they could pet them! We didn't order any lunch but we did split the pretzel which was delicious!! We both loved our cider flight! If you a big cider fan or have never tried a cider before I high recommend Stem Ciders!!

Stem Ciders is a great place in the heart of RiNo! It has a chill relaxed vibe with a nice patio. They have solid food options and many unique ciders to choose from. Our waiter was very friendly and patient, giving us her recommendations. I definitely recommend going if you are looking for a low-key drink and maybe some food.

3.5 stars. Another RiNo eatery checked off the list! I've been procrastinating on Stem because cider isn't my alcoholic beverage of choice. But it was conveniently located near friends I was hanging out with, so we grabbed some barstools on the outdoor patio (it was PACKED) until a few tables opened up. Service is excellent, but it felt chaotic and a little slow.I had a cider flight (that's the way to go) though they were out of a few selections. Delicious variety that educated me on the possibility of cider flavors. Got a lamb burger and fries to go with the flight. The fries were better than the lamb and overall wasn't impressed by the food, but would definitely come back for cider if I was ever craving that.

Stellar Burger Surprise at Stem Ciders! Stem Ciders has always been one of our go-to spot for, well, cider! But yesterday, we stumbled upon an unexpected delight - their incredible burger and fries! We got the green chile & pepper jack,cider caramelized onions ,cider aioli ,brioche bun. It came with the fries all for15.95. I was blown away by the quality and taste of the burger, not to mention the reasonable prices. We had initially planned to hit up a well-known burger joint nearby after drinks, but after experiencing Stem Ciders' culinary prowess, we never made it there. And boy, are we glad we stayed! The decision was a homerun, thanks to the mouthwatering burger and fries.To top it all off, we were treated to live music by a talented singer! If the owner happens to read this, I'd love to know the singer's name to look up her music. The ambiance was simply phenomenal, and although I didn't capture it on video, I was too busy enjoying the tunes, our drinks, and the delicious food - all while managing to get a bit of work done at the bar. Speaking of which, kudos to the attentive staff for their excellent service. We felt well taken care of in the cool and chill vibe of the bar area. Stem Ciders continues to impress, and we'll definitely be back for more burger surprises and live music sessions!

This was a cool cider bar! Great drinks and nice atmosphere. However, we must have caught them at a bad day because we had ordered the bison short rib poutine but the server forgot to place the order and the place closed early (Oct. 26th) so we did not get to enjoy the food. The server felt remorseful and was very apologetic.

Yes and yes! Yes the beer and food is good so yes you should visit. Love the shareables and my partner enjoyed her cider flights. I ordered a cocktail and was surprised how they infused cider into popular cocktails. The ambiance is amazing especially if you get to sit outside. Service is good. Would visit again.
