cider. cheese plate. friendly staff. decor.

Biggest selection of cider I’ve ever come across in a resto/bar, and it’s a lot of fun to sample a few you’ve never heard of (the draft ciders are available as a flight). Good mix of sweet and dry, though I would have liked to have seen more funky selections in the mix. The food here is great — nothing surprising, maybe, but everything is carefully presented and full of flavour.

Restaurant really nice and cozy. Service was 5 stars, attentive and welcoming. Sadly the brisket in the hash was tough, chewy and gristly instead of moist and tender. Whole dish did taste good and well seasoned but the brisket was a downer.

Some of the best service I have ever received anywhere. The servers were attentive to everything. I had made mention the day before we were attending a play and on a time constraint and my girlfriend and I were surprised when a server came up to us and said that "we know you're going to a play, so anything you need, let us know!"The food is also amazing. Very fresh and delicious. Highly recommend

Had a really good experience here with a few friends. I love their wide selection of ciders and that they have flights! The staff was very knowledgeable when it came to our preferences which was nice. They were also able to accommodate us and moved us to the patio once there was a seat available. The food was good and came fairly quickly. Portions were okay for the price. Their fried chicken was crisp but it was a bit bland. We also ordered the mussels and confit yam fritters which were both pretty good. The orange and vanilla cake was super yummy! Would definitely come back again for the flights.

The service was impeccable! Absolutely loved everyone. I ordered the smoked salmon Benedict and I loved it. It came with I think it was an apple ketchup? I absolutely loved it.my only critique would probably be that the food should be warmer. My friends got the short rib dish and club sandwich and it was a bit cold already. Other than that I had a great experience .

Exceptional service. Fantastic food and drink! Their selection of ciders is unbeatable. Lots of options - international and local. On tap cider flight (3 x 4oz glasses) are $11.99. And the food pairings equally wonderful. Rich and tasty fare, including gluten-free options available. Dining room is not too large, so reservations are recommended. PS. They are on OpenTable for those who use that platform to collect points.

Really nice experience here. Great tasting ciders and food to compliment.The ambience is really nice and it's usually not so crowded. Ask the staff for cider recommendations, you won't regret it!

Amazing experience.I made reservations for two and while we were super late, they were very accommodating.Service was lovely! Our waitress gave us free samples of cider and she was so candid with her recommendations, which I appreciated. (Try the Vanilla Spiced cider. It’s divine.)Food was surprisingly delicious. I say surprisingly because Her Father’s is so well known for their cider that people seldom talk about how flavourful and tasty their food is.

I made reservations for a group of 6 - everything was lovely. I had the lobster bisque and mushroom risotto. I also had the cider flight and my favorite was number 1. There's a heated patio (if you reserve online, you'll need to comment that you want to sit outside). Almost everything (or possibly everything) is able to be made gluten free!It was very cozy inside and service was very kind and helpful.
