My wife and I happened to spot this cidery as we were walking through the South Slope area of downtown Asheville. Boy were we happy to bump into this place! A great addition to the many breweries that this area is known for.My wife is a huge fan of ciders. After trying the pick your own flight, she said this was one of the best cider experiences she has had. Sweet ciders, dry ciders, spicy ciders...you name it, they have it. In addition, they have a large assortment of beers as well for anyone who doesn't drink cider.Vibrant and fun place with super friendly staff. Add in some comfy couches, tvs, shuffleboard, pool table and a ping pong table, and you have one fun spot all the way around! Dogs are welcome inside, which is a huge bonus to any pet lover.

I was really excited to try this place and I tried to chat with the worker/bartender about what to order and she was very cold and looked annoyed. Made me sad:(

Love the idea of a cidery as someone who isn't huge into beer. While they specialize in ciders, they also offer beer and wine! Almost positive there was also a mocktail menu. Loved the environment, comfy booths, ping pong tables and even the stage for live music. Also, can apprecaite a disco ball, and they have quite a few! Definitely the perfect place to enjoy a chill evening and just enjoy good company. The bar tender was also super helpful with suggesting a cider based off of our preferences. I enjoyed the strawberry basil cider which was so refreshing and my guest enjoyed the cherry cider. Both amazing!

What a nice cidery! The gentleman behind the counter was very kind and knowledgeable about the cider and let me sample a couple. I ordered the cranberry cider and loved it!

Absolutely love Urban Orchard! We’ve been coming to their original location since they opened. My favorite cider is their seasonal, Kalikimaka but all of the flavors are great!

We found this place on a rainy day with our dog. We were allowed to bring her inside (leashed). We ordered a flight of cider. All were delicious! They do have a variety of seating from tables, booths, outdoor seating, to cozy couches. They do serve food, but we did not order any. Overall, we love the dog-friendly atmosphere, and we plan on returning to enjoy the vibe, the cider, and the food!

My hubby and I come here all the time. The Sidra is our favorite! The bar tenders are always easy to talk to and we like to sit at the window to people watch. We've brought our dog a few times, there's seating both inside and out. Plus there are a few games you can play inside, it's definitely worth checking out :)
My wife and I got flights of ciders. Good selection if you’re into cider! The cherry and berry ones were our favorites! Cool hippy

All of the ciders are great, especially the Sidra Del Diablo and lemon drop. Our bartender, Joe was amazing, friendly, attentive and quick service. Will definitely be stopping at this location again next time we’re in

Urban Orchard just released their 'spicy' line for Halloween. In general, it's excellent, starting at mild (2.5k Scoville) and going up to hot (250k Scoville). Then they have one that is 2.2 Million Scoville. My lips hurt just from sipping it. It makes me light-headed, and that is not from the alcohol. It's like drinking a bottle of the hottest hot sauce you can imagine. I can barely taste the cider over the scorpion pepper flavor. In other words, I have found my happy place.

My best friend and I did a girls trip to Asheville and ventured into Urban Orchard. It was recommended to us because it's gluten free and neither of us are beer people (but bring on the cider!). I truly cannot say enough great things about this place. It was not hard to get me to give them my money! The atmosphere and ambiance at Urban Orchard is so friendly, welcoming, warm, and best yet - dog friendly. I had just lost my pup when we took this trip. It was good for my heart to see and pet all the dogs! The staff person was amazing in helping me choose the ciders I wanted to try. He also introduced us to the brew master that was there at the moment (and even gave me a treat to give to the brew master's dog!). I brought home one of their growlers (which is only 32 oz) and 4 cans of cider plus some merch. I also had a flight plus 1 and some snacks. If I lived in Asheville, this would be my weekly hangout with friends for sure!
