Her Father's Cider Bar + Kitchen

We ordered 3 different cider flights, the shishito peppers, ricotta stuffed squash, and crispy brussel sprouts. Everything was beautifully balanced in flavour. We weren’t sure about which ciders to order for our flights but our waiter was very helpful in helping us select based on our preferences.

First time with my family.. appetizers were great, dishes awesome. Loved presentation, dressings and taste. Unfortunately seems like some staff didn't represent what this establishment is trying to represent - a community flair...some staff were lovely and inviting and sadly our server was not. For the price I prefer to eat were I feel welcome. Not sure if I will try again but food is certainly great.

We ordered the brussel sprouts, scallops (with 1 extra scallop) and Nashville hot chicken. The food started off pretty good with the brussel sprouts, it was not exactly crispy (just a bit), but the flavour was good. The scallops were cooked well, but I think they could do better with the other parts of the scallops dish. The peas and the few green beans didn't do it for me, nor the sauce. The last dish, the Nashville hot chicken was very disappointing. It had no flavour except hot/spicy. The level of spiciness was fine, but the lack of flavour was really not doing it for the chicken. Even the ranch sauce didn't add much. The dish came with 4 pieces on top with plain white bread (untoasted, unbuttered, just plain white bread). The bread didn't add anything to the dish. I also found it odd that they brought out 1 dish at a time, waited for you to be done and then brought out the next dish. That would be ok if it was fine dining, but I didn't think it was suitable for the sort of menu this restaurant offered. The service was great and the atmosphere was pretty cozy.

We had a wonderful lunch on the patio! We really didn’t expect that level of quality and were delighted with our experience. Everything was absolutely fabulous.

This past Saturday, we had the pleasure of dining at Her Father's Cider Bar & Kitchen, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, the staff's warm hospitality was evident. Our server, Max, stood out with his incredible knowledge and helpfulness. He expertly guided us through the menu, making spot-on recommendations for both drinks and dishes. His suggestions truly enhanced our dining experience. The outdoor patio was another highlight. Perfectly situated away from street traffic, it offered a peaceful and pleasant dining environment. The tables were well-spaced, ensuring privacy and comfort, and the staff worked seamlessly together, providing impeccable service throughout our meal. Among the many delightful dishes we tried, the Applewood Smoked Arctic Char was my absolute favorite. This dish was nothing short of mouthwatering and left a lasting impression. The small plate menu is a fantastic concept, allowing diners to sample and share multiple dishes, making the meal even more enjoyable. Overall, our evening at Her Father's Cider Bar & Kitchen was thoroughly enjoyable. We are already looking forward to our next visit and highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience. Mike & Diana

I booked the back room at Her Father's Cider Bar for my birthday celebration and everything was absolutely amazing. The food, drink selection, ambiance, hospitality and overall experience- everything exceeded my expectations! I worked closely with their manager Josh to coordinate the timing, capacity, budget, food and dietary restrictions for my group. He was extremely flexible to work with and ensured that everyone in my group had a meal that they could eat (we had a couple vegetarians/vegans). Even though we only corresponded through email, he was extremely quick with getting back to me and answering all our my questions - no matter how big or small they were. Having him as a contact made me extremely comfortable and less stressed with the planning since he clearly knows his stuff when it comes to special events and planning! The server who helped take care of my group was extremely attentive while also easygoing and flexible. She was patient despite our group being so large and split into two, and I greatly appreciated her attention to detail when it came to catering to my vegan guests and latecomers. I had the chicken & waffles and it was the perfect size. Their apple butter and apple ketchup are both amazing and accompanied the food perfectly. I would love to come back to try other brunch items as everyone else's food looked really good as well! I also can't wait to visit again to try their dinner menu and I know for sure that this is going to be a lovely date night location going forward! Thank you everyone at Her Father's for your amazing hospitality and service!

Very confused about the reviews for this place. Possibly just an off day in the kitchen, because majority of reviews are very good- but our experience was not. Service wasn’t bad, but wasn’t great either. Kind of felt rushed throughout our time there. All dishes we ordered had really great potential but the main ingredient was lacking flavour. The pork cutlet was our favorite- though the cutlet alone tasted like absolutely nothing. Portions are pretty small considering the price point. But cider flight was great! Probably wouldn’t come back for anything other than drinks.

This is an amazing place. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the ciders. I'm definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu. I'm not a vegetarian but the fried mushroom dish was the best vegetarian dish I've ever had. The apple ketchup was also very good.
