“ Been awhile since I've stopped in to see what's fermenting at Tumalo Cider and I sure wasn't disappointed. I ordered a flight and couldn't find a flavor I wouldn't order as a pint. It's definitely worth a pit spot if you're a fan of ciders and traveling on highway 20. ”
“ Great cider in a great location. Plenty of choices to choose from dry to fruity sweet no one will be disappointed. Service was friendly and fast. Area was clean throughout. Cool vibe that everyone needs to visit. Parking can be challenging during summer. Prices fair. Great location. Anytime I'm feeling like a cider I'll drop in. ”
“ Great tap room. Very knowledge. Staff is super friendly. You can taste test anything. They have exceptionally good cider. You can, however, find it cheaper in cans at a number of outlets. But by the pint or growler can't be beat ”
“ Always a great time. Tumalo Cider has the best cider in the Bend area (sorry, Bend Cider - you guys are cool, too) and some of the best in the PNW. Get some food at The Bite just across the road and you’re set. ”
“ I did a flight of 5 and these were my choices. Prickly pear cider- mellow tart flavor, slight earthiness, little happy ( lol spellcheck- hoppy) background tones. Would pair well with a big fat juicy bacon cheese burger with Garlic Bacon/Gorgonzola loaded fries. Crangerine- an immediate pop of citrus, tangerine flavor, traditional cider mouth feel. Can really taste the tangerine. Semi- sweet tones. Would pair well with a baked Cheesy casserole. Stone Fruit- the peach & plum tones are more up and I can taste the mango in the back. Dry tones would pair well with marinated grilled chicken & grilled peaches. I would love to try this as the "wine" in a sangria eating the fruit at the end of my drink. Pineapple Passion Fruit- powerful Pineapple tones up front and the passion fruit ends a dry sweetness to this cider. It's acidic but not in a bad way. It would go great with a hearty lasagne. Raspberry- before you take in your fiist sip, smell the enticing Raspberry bouquet. It has a traditional cider mouth feel with a dry Raspberry finish. It would be nice to enjoy on a hot sunny day. Would pair well with a fudgy chocolate brownie. Really enjoyed this one and after each sip I wanted to grab that brownie! This was my favorite #robynsculinaryadventure #Robyndiscoversoregon #robynsciderjourney #tumalocider #tumulaciderco ”
“ Always many options for local ciders and beers! A lovely variety of cider. We had two flights. One of cider and one of beer. Strawberry habanero was amazing! Not too sweet like you’d expect out of strawberry and not spicy either. The two flavors mellowed each other out nicely. Hands down favorite was the bright pink strawberry mojito. Again, not overly sweet and not overly minty. Had the perfect balance of both. Nice outdoor patio. Across from the food trucks. ”
“ They don't make food here, but you can bring in food to enjoy while sipping ciders. My friend and I each had a flight and enjoyed all of them. Super tasty ciders, a bit on the dry side. Stop in if you're around or grab them in stores. Definitely a great cidery. ”
“ Visiting the area and was stoked to find a cider spot so close. Went by myself and Natalie, the bartender, was so fun and welcoming. Got a flight and every flavor was excellent. Left with some crowlers and will definitely be back before I leave. I didn’t get food but there are great looking food trucks across the street and their food buzzers reach to the tap room. Highly recommended! ”
