Kimmel Orchard & Vineyard

Great place to go and explore and learn about wine making with honey. They also have the Apple orchards and a store where they sell all of the products they make on site.

We traveled to Nebraska City for the AppleJack Festival this year. Most of the festivities are held at Arbor Day Farm, but we also stopped at Kimmel Orchard and were so glad we did!Kimmel is obviously a lot smaller than Arbor Day Farm, but you wouldn't know it from the amount of products they have in their little shop, with a huge majority made of their apples.We tried some of their apple cider, of course, and it was divine. So smooth and with absolutely zero acidic "bite" you can sometimes get with apple products full of added sugar. I wish I had bought a few more bottles of it, instead of just the one that we shared on the way back to Omaha!The ambiance of the shop, even though it's pretty bustling at that time of year, is still very warm, welcoming and homy feeling. You can peruse the little "aisles" forever and still find something new you didn't know they made there at Kimmel.When we finally left, we had chosen apple butter, apple cider, cinnamon apple sauce, apple doughnuts, apple butter syrup, and ranch dressing (no apple in that! Haha)If you're headed to Nebraska City (during the AppleJack Festival or any other time), definitely stop by Kimmel Orchard - you will not be disappointed!

Such a fun place to explore with the family! Enjoy some fresh cider and cider doughnuts. There's even a playground for the kids to wear off some energy! Wine flights are available as well. Was a great outing for our professional group.

Kimmel is definitely not the same as when I was growing up. They have modernized, but who hasn't these days? It's evolved quite a bit, different from the old days when they didn't even serve wine. It's become a bit more touristy, but that's perfectly fine. They offer a wide variety of tasty items, including pies, salsas, salad dressing, jams, etc. But the doughnuts are the best part.

Clean, well-kept.Nice assortment of goodies --- headlined by the legendary apple donuts!Up-scale nice place to visit.

Applejack Festival is awesome! This year they separated it out into 3 weekends which meant less crowds. The apple cider donuts were sold out which was pretty disappointing but understandable because they are phenomenal.The wine tasting is quite fun. You get to take home a wine glass (stemless or stem) and 4 wine tasters for $8. All wine made by Kimmel Orchard. We will be back next year. Please make more donuts.

Visiting the area for several month and happy to have found this cute place. Love all the yummy local goodies they offer. We did the wine tasting and bought a few bottles of our favorites. Will definitely be back for the upick in September and for more wine.

Have you ever craved apple cider donuts so much you drive 150 miles round trip to get some? No? Just us? We started coming to Kimmel when our daughter was in Girl Scouts years ago and they had outings here and have been going ever since. The prices are a bit higher than the grocery store but so is the quality so it is worth it. Plus I always like supporting a local business. Weather was hard on the cherry crop this year so weren't able to get the cherry apple cider, but that is also a must-have when it is available.

Too expensive. The prices were ridiculous. $18 dollars for 6 donuts. The prices were unreal. I will never go again.

I've visited Kimmel Orchard many times. I won't be back. It used to be charming, a nice place to amble through. Now it is too commercial - "screw you" prices along with blaring pop music made me want to leave as soon as possible.
