What Guests Are Saying
Went to Wilson’s Ciderhouse for a special dinner and it was a great experience. Really cool to see how much they’ve built out at Wilson’s since I was a kid. The ditalini with burrata was fresh, and the curried lamb was the standout. Dessert with the Meyer lemon bread pudding finished it perfectly. Cozy atmosphere, solid cocktails, and easygoing service. Their Vernal Equinox Dinner was great, and they host other seasonal events, so check out their events schedule and book a table. You'll be delighted by the experience.

The food was amazing and could not have asked for a more perfect day and scenery. Highly recommend this venue. The bar options were also very convenient!
We hosted our wedding day at Wilson's Ciderhouse & Venue and I seriously cannot say enough amazing things about the staff, the facility, the food, or the atmosphere. The ceremony location is breathtaking on it's own, add on top of that the ability to walk to the flower fields to take photos and everything is just so stunning. The venue manager, waitstaff and bartenders were incredibly kind and attentive and our guests couldn't stop raving about their food. I'd highly recommend having your big day here!
