Locust Cider First Hill

This review is for their new location that just opened in First Hill on Terry Ave. I'm excited to have a cider place so close! Staff is very friendly and they have an easy online ordering system set up. We've gone in a few times to get a growler filled. It's super easy and a great deal. We tried the honey pear and citrus peach ciders. I would recommend both!

Satellite location for Locust cider. Here you can sample, drink, buy Locust brand ciders. There is also a small selection of craft beers. If you are hungry they can make you a small personal pizza. I'm not a cider guy so I had an IPA. I sat at the bar and service was friendly and prompt. The place is medium sized and their are some tables you can sit at too but no table service. You can also watch the game on one of the TVs. So, remember this is not a restaurant, and you can't expect the pizza to be anything special. You come for the cider and/ or the beer. Which is excellent. So not the nicest ambience. It's just a storefront type place on Pill Hill. So I will award four stars. Cheers!

I came here for the first time today to attend an event hosted by Pick Me Up Pottery, and I had such a blast! I'm looking forward to coming back for more events hosted here, and I am so glad to have visited.Good things first: loved this fun event! I think this is a great way to get folks in the door, and I honestly can't wait to come back. It looks like Locust hosts several community events like Drag Bingo, Paint & Sip nights, and ceramics nights. The ciders came in some really innovative flavors, and I was over the moon with the blackberry cider.Now, the only reason this is 4 stars instead of 5...I am Celiac, and I was really excited to try a new cider house. Cider tap rooms tend to be pretty generous for individuals with Celiac disease. However, I was bummed out that everything on the menu had gluten, with the gluten free crust adding a $4 premium on the pizza that they offered.They were out of the gluten free crust today so there was nothing I could eat, and no restaurants around I could pick up food. Would love to see management add a nacho or buffalo chicken dip with chips or something just to have a safe item for folks who need food.Great spot, though, and I'm excited to come back!

Great place to stop in for cider, pizza, or both! Locust has a varied selection of handmade pizzas available as well as a couple other food options. They have tons of cider varieties as well as some house brewed beer and wine. Thursday nights are flight night so go in and try them all! Tons of indoor seating as well as a nice outdoor patio space. Great staff and great service.

I went in on a Wednesday, so there was hardly anyone there and there only seemed to be two people working. The bar tender was friendly and the cider was really good. They did an excellent job there. I went on a pint night sale, $6 a pint.Was wasn't great, they were out of several products to make the flatbreads. Then the oven apparently wasn't working properly so it took ages for the flatbreads to arrive. We ordered four and they came out at different times. They were ok but pricey for what you got. I'd probably skip this if I went back, which is disappointing. I love the location, in an area that doesn't really have much in the form of cideries or restaurants, I live close so I was able to walk here which is a huge bonus. I don't love the interior so much, it is all new and very nice but felt sterile. They did have a small selection of games you could play while there and some music playing at least. Overall I'd say it was worth it for the cider and convenient location but not for the food or long hangout sessions. I did still spend 3 hours here visiting with friends.
