The Cider Junction - San Jose

Came here on a slow Saturday night. Excited by the huge list of cider options and very disappointed by the service. We arrived at 7. At 7:10 I went inside to order after looking over the menu and the bartender said he'd take our order outside at our table. Which he did... at 7:25. At 7:35 we left because he still hadn't poured our flights.Maybe they were short staffed, but I was disappointed.

Mev was awesome. Kind, thoughtful, warm and welcoming! I loved all the cider options and found a new one I really enjoyed (POG). Yummy fresh food. Mev went above and beyond and got me directions back to my hotel when my phone died. Loved the service, atmosphere, and the whole experience.Noticed they also had some board games available to play!

My spouse was looking for someplace new with a variety of ciders. The Cider Junction fit the bill perfectly. 30+ ciders on tap! We had a couple small plates and enjoyed the evening air on the patio!Vegetarian options: A small selection of.beg friendly options, including a couple of flatbread, a cheese board, baked Mac n cheese and baked tater tots.

Ok drinks, mine tasted pretty watered down but great service. Also was pretty cold out in the patio, most of the heaters weren’t even on.

I was super excited to try a cider tap house because I love cider. It was pretty empty on a Friday evening tonight, so it was easy to grab a table. Cider options were great. Only downside was that we felt very rushed after arriving around 7:30 and they closed at 9 pm. Waitress kept asking if we wanted refills when we weren 't even finished with our current drinks and it was asked in a very impatient way. She would come back after about 5 minutes after asking and ask how about now? She was stacking tables around us and cleaning up as if they were about to close. Last call for drinks was at 8:20, which was 40 minutes before closing... we were very shocked by that. They were mopping the whole place and it felt awkward walking through and asking if we were allowed to use the bathroom still. Overall, a very uncomfortable and rushed experience. This would have been a favorite spot for me to visit consistently if we didn 't feel so rushed the whole time.
