Cliffside Cider

Cliffside Cider holds the distinction of being Squamish's first cidery, opening in June 2018 on the edge of town with a quirky, easygoing character all its own. Here the focus is small-batch craft cider made from premium fruit, much of it sourced from the orchards of the Okanagan Valley. The result is a genuinely wide range of styles, from a crisp, famous House Dry apple to bold experimental blends spiked with ginger, pineapple, peach, grapefruit, cherry or blueberry. With dry, sweet, herbed, traditional and even perry options on the board, there's something for every palate, whether you lean classic and bone-dry or like your cider playful and fruit-forward. When you visit, you can settle into the tasting room or, when the weather cooperates, spread out on the sunny patio. Flights let you work through the lineup and discover the seasonal and experimental batches that make a cidery like this fun to return to. An on-site food truck means you can pair your cider with something to eat, turning a quick tasting into a relaxed afternoon. The vibe is welcoming and unpretentious, a reflection of Squamish itself. The setting puts Cliffside squarely on the radar for anyone exploring the Sea-to-Sky corridor between Vancouver and Whistler. Squamish has become a hub for outdoor adventure, from climbing the Stawamus Chief to mountain biking and hiking, and a cold craft cider is the perfect reward at the end of an active day. Add in the town's growing roster of breweries and makers, and Cliffside fits naturally into a tasting tour of the area. For travelers wanting a taste of local Squamish craft in a laid-back, dog-friendly setting, it's an easy and rewarding stop.
