The County Cider Company - Picton

Enjoyed a ton during my visit here even though I am not a cider drinker. The scenery is beautiful and the tasting room has a lot of charms! The staff was very friendly and passionate in sharing with us the cider collection they have, from not sweet at all to the sweetest one they have. Some of the ciders are really delicious. Recommend!

We came here on recommendations from someone local to have lunch and to try out some cider. A single taste is $0.50, ice cider taste is $1, and a flight is $2. I thought I would love the fruitier ciders like blood orange and peach, but surprisingly preferred the Waupoos premium cider. It was clean, lightly sweet, and refreshing without having a medicinal taste. For those who like cream soda, you should try the blood orange cider. The wait for a table for 7 was quite long without prior reservations. While waiting, we enjoyed the views and walked through the small vineyard overlooking the lake. Once finally seated, we ordered 4 pizzas and a salad to share. Although smaller in size, the pizzas were loaded with toppings. We enjoyed the goat cheese, pear and chicken pizza. The Hots for You with sausage and tomatoes was flavourful. The Fun Guy pizza was loaded with mushrooms, Brie, and was very creamy. Pizzas cost $17.50 each. A star was subtracted for the delay in seating and the hostess staffs ' inability to estimate when we would be seated. Otherwise if you 're in the area, love cider, and want a pricier place to have decent pizza with a lovely view, you should consider coming here. (79/100)

The VIEW. +1 star) County Cider Company's Patio has the BEST view. It is just stunning and dreamy. I can sit in one of the Muskoka Chair and just enjoy a cold cider or 2 for the whole afternoon. The Tasting for $2 includes 4 ciders or 50 cents each. Tasting size is really small and really just for a taste. We ended up trying 5 different ciders: Feral, Blood Orange, Tortured Path, County and Waupoos. Since we were here on a weekday and the tasting room was not busy at all so we got really fast and attentive service. I know I will be back next time when I am in PEC area and just to enjoy the view here or maybe a snack?

Great view of vineyard and beach in the background. Friendly service but the pizza was very disappointing. Stromboli frozen pizza is much better. Recommendation to chef: do not bake arugula with pizza. 3 stars for service and ambiance/view and 1 star for food. Cider was decent.

Food is ok, but prices went up and portions went down with the boom of Prince Edward County which is a shame. Toronto pricing for what we got would be less than what they're charging. It was kind of disappointing after visiting for a few years. Service is meh nice people, but young and inexperienced, so it got a little irritating (especially with the above mentioned price boost). Scenery is wonderful that I'll give them!
