Redfield Cider Bar & Bottle Shop

After being at the park with my daughter I wanted to go somewhere for mama, this place has been on my list to try and I was really glad it's a kid friendly space. I ordered one of the cider flights, I really enjoyed all 3 of them. The gentleman was really knowledgeable about the products. So I grabbed a couple to go bottles, in total it was $30 and well worth the stop. I learned I need to drink more ciders!

The place is cute and fills the void of getting a drink somewhere that isn't a restaurant or dive bar. They do beer, natural wine and ciders and a few small bites. I don't recall music - so either it was very background or none at all.I didn't love my $15 natural wine, I tried both the rose and the malbec, and would have loved to see a Berkeley one like Broc featured.My friend went with the cider flight and liked 3 of the 4. Service was fine. Not necessarily super attentive, but nice.Overall, solid spot if you truly do love cider or natural wine.

This is a lovely spot in Rockridge with delicious and interesting cider flavors. I had a flight with a cherry, kiwi and passion fruit cider. Each was good and not too sweet. I also shared the goat cheese and crackers which had a honey drizzle over it. The goat cheese was rich and the honey cut it well.

Love the environment and feel of this place! The only reason I didn't rank five stars is because there aren't a ton of n/a options, but also the whole point of this place is to be like a bar so that makes sense. Love stopping here with friends in Rockridge!

When I moved to the US from the UK just over a decade ago, the lack of good quality alcoholic cider was one of my biggest pain points (that, and the inadequate public transportation). It's been wonderful to see that changing over the last few years - from Brooks cider (one of my favourites!) being readily available in every Trader Joe's to spots like Redfield opening up! We walked past during COVID and grabbled a bottle but I finally managed to come back and sit at the bar this past week with a friend. Fantastic menu that has a good selection of CA sourced ciders and more widely sourced ciders - not just apple too, you'll find everything from strawberry to pear cider as well here. I enjoyed the California tasting flight - the pours were generous and I wouldn't recommend going on an empty stomach! Can't wait to come back with my wife for a future date night tipple!

We are all happy in these parts when we can celebrate an anniversary among all these store closures. Today was Redfield's 5th anniversary and they were pouring a special pink apple cider, had a musician and a special hot dog on the menu. When we arrived all the seating was already taken so we stood at the parklet railing. The server brought our drinks to us after ordering at the bar. We also had a dog with us and they are not allowed inside. We eventually got a coveted outdoor table - there are only 3, and shared it among 6 of us friends. The line to order grew as time went on, but surprisingly there was no line for the single unisex restroom in the back when I went. There are paper menus and a menu on the board. The staff is happy to help you select. They also have beer and wine and a few small snacks. I have been a few times over the 5 years but it's not as convenient for our group as I travel with a lot of friends and dogs. If you can get the parklet spots on a nice day it is ideal! Inside there are a few seats at the bar and tables. Very easy walk from Rockridge bart, paid street parking or free residential parking.They have hot cider alcoholic and non for cold months, but unfortunately for me it is too sweet.

Wow. Just happened to stumble upon this place while we were picking up some pizza next door. Who knew natural wine could taste so delicious. Love that they have flights so we were able to try a handful since we are pretty new to natural wine. We loved all of them so much. The inside is perfect for hanging out or catching up. Such beautiful decor and vibe. Some people even came here to study and do work which I loved! Will definitely be back if ever in the area!

Had a really good experience here. Really good menu with high quality ciders, natural wines, and even beer. They also have bottles of cider like a wine shop/bar would have. Reasonable prices that make me rather come get an interesting cider here than a meh beer somewhere else.

Such an awesome spot to explore a variety of local ciders! Met up with a friend here about a month or so ago and we really enjoyed ourselves. Redfield Cider Bar is located right in heart of Rockridge off of bustling College Avenue and specializes in local ciders, wines, and beer. I've been getting more into beer lately but realized that I haven't dabbled too much in the cider game. We met up on a late Saturday afternoon and the weather was perfect outside. They have a cute patio parklet with heat lamps. Since it was a gorgeous day out, we decided to sit outside on their parklet to soak up the sun. You order at the bar and they'll deliver everything to your table. Since it was our first time there, we both decided to grab cider flights. They offer a nice variety of ciders as well and wines and beer on tap. Normally I'd be all over the wine since I'm a huge wino, but is was super excited to try out some different ciders. Flights are either pre-set or customizable. We both decided to customize our flights based on the descriptions of each cider. I love that they offer vivid descriptors of the taste of the ciders as well as labels. I went with the Humboldt Peach, Hemly Mandarin Pear, & DuPont Bouché Brut de Normandie. All of the ciders were tasty but my favorite was the Hemly Mandarin Pear. At first I thought that I would like the Hemly the least because of the mandarin, but it had these lovely tropical notes and it wasn't too sweet. My flight of 3 heavily poured ciders costed less than $15! Price-wise, the flights are ridiculously reasonable! Especially when you realize that one glass of wine would usually cost this much and would be the same size as one of those cider pours. Granted it's cider and not wine, but still; the deal is REAL ladies and gents! They also offer some light bites but will allow outside food. My friend ordered an empanada which she mentioned was very tasty (I brought in a chicken salad from Bakesale Betty down the street). Although this isn't a full service establishment, the staff is super friendly and helpful when it comes to cider suggestions. They also sell many different bottles of cider, wine, and beer, for purchase. This was such a nice little find in the neighborhood and I'm excited to come back again.

Nice variety of ciders and beers. Outdoor seating is great. Inside is also nice for hanging out with friends. Super friendly staff!
