One of the best Cidery’s in the Okanagan! Great atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious cider, and wonderful food
Quiet little spot, delicious cider and pizza!
Well priced flights of ciders and good looking pizzas, none of the ciders (sweet or dry) blew me away. The live music was awesome though
Very cute little cidery. Their cider is fantastic and we were privileged to be able to speak to one of the owners who was happy to answer all of our questions. Great spot during the warm months as they have outdoor seating, including under a roof for shade and also along the orchard trees. They also had a stage set up for live music! Gift shop is cute and they have a nice selection of little gifts to bring home.
Had a fantastic time learning more about the history of the area and orchard during the tasting that happens every half hour. I'm not a big fan of cider but their Dufferin one which they age in whiskey barrels is delicious.
Wonderful atmosphere to taste ciders next to the orchard. However, we arrived around 5:30 and there was a live event at 7:00 which we did not have tickets for so we were told "you will need to leave in 45 minutes". This did not provide for a friendly service experience.
This is a must-do when visiting the Okanagan. The orchards are gorgeous, the cider delicious and the ladies working there are very knowledgeable. We learned a whole lot about the gold rush and how the cider press came to be as it is now. The girls were incredibly friendly and not stingy with the samples! The tasting is done by donation; so be generous - it's worth it!
Great place for cider and pizza. They offer 8 variants and even have live music if you get your tickets In advance!
I had the chance to meet Missy on my visit, she is an outstanding woman in both her passion for her business, and her kindness for others. If you are in Vernon, do yourself a favour, and visit The BX Press. The Silver Fox Cider is the perfect balance of refreshing, and sweet! I followed this with the Select Canadian Cheese board, and finished with a glass of Bandit Cider which was the perfect savoury cider, with a hint of sweetness. Thank you Missy for your hospitality this evening, it’s appreciated more then you know! Jay X
A great choice of Sweet & Dry Ciders, combined with delicious Wooden-oven Pizzas and live music. All in a beautiful orchard atmosphere. Just amazing.
Great craft ciders and delicious wood fired pizzas!
This place has a great cider tasting where they tell the interesting history of the BX area and it's connection to the gold rush. You get to taste three different ciders which all have fun/historic names. It is by donation and a portion of the donations goes towards charity. There is a small shop where you can buy cider and other unique souvenirs. Everyone who works there is very friendly. It is a great activity to do in Vernon!
I didn't eat the food here because I wasn't hungry but their ciders, specifically the sweet ones are phenomenal! Special shoutout to the vanilla plum cider for being incredible!
The food was fantastic, and I hadn't even got to the cider yet. Make sure to have the Plum and Vanilla cider, its life changing!
Went for the wood fired pizza and live music. everything was good and the music and location made for a truly magical evening
I really enjoyed coming here. We tried their ciders while sitting in the orchard. This was a selling feature for me and one of the reasons why I wanted to go here for a cider tasting. I am a huge fan of their sweet ciders, they have elegant flavours for a decent price. Another bonus, their apples are organic, crisp, and very well-priced. I highly recommend that if you need apples for the season, go here.
Great atmosphere - great cider and the kids loved the pizza and lemonade! The staff are so friendly and genuinely happy to welcome their customers.
Only popped in to pick up a selection of ciders but this place looked awesome. Really quaint little cidery. Staff were really welcoming and friendly. Excited to come back and try more ciders!
I grew up just above the actual orchard of the BX press Cidery, but have only just visited this awesome place in 2021. Had lunch with my mom there, tasted their amazing ciders and equally amazing pizza. It was so good that I came back with my kids the day after for a pizza lunch. The teenage food critics also said this was the pizza they've ever had ???? I really enjoyed the Dufferin Cider, aged in whisky barrels. This place is a must if you're traveling to the north Okanagan
I've never ate such bland pizza in my life. My entire group felt the same. We had the chicken and portobello pizza and one with beet and feta. The chicken pizza tasted like cardboard. We all had to ask for salt. One of the servers seemed so hard done by having to bring us all salt. It's as if nothing was basically seasoned, from the dough to the sauce and everything on top. One of the servers seemed so hard done by having to bring salt and water for the table. If the overpriced pizza wasn't overwhelmingly tasteless then she wouldn't have needed to earn her tip (which was given before even receiving any service). I did not have any cider but the group wasn't entirely impressed with the cider either. For a place that is so highly reviewed, all 8 of us were incredibly disappointed and will definitely not be recommending this place.
Awesome apples in season and in bulk :) those into apple ciders will find a fine selection of these beverages. Friendly service.
beautiful orchard with amazing friendly staff. the atmosphere was perfect for family or friendly gatherings. the stories behind each label are compelling and it makes each sip that much more exciting.
Amazing place! Lovely and friendly staff! The ciders are wonderful, different flavors for different tastes. I liked sweet ones: raspberry lavender and black cherry (bandit). From now on it’s my favorite drink now.
BX Press has stepped up their game. Craft cider and craft pizza cooked in an outdoor woodfire oven. Lots of picnic tables and even a stage for live entertainment. The relaxed atmosphere is perfect for an evening or afternoon relax time. There is a self guided walking tour of the apple orchard too. Kid friendly with a rustic farm like feel. Stop in and have a pint, then move on to the rest of your day. Don't forget to take away a few bottles or a case of your preferred cider, some flavors are seasonal or limited edition. It's kinda hard to limit yourself when they make such wonderful tastes!
One of my favorite places in Vernon, the view looking out over the orchard is very relaxing and I love the new set up with all the tables in the courtyard. They are rockin the pizza game and I love trying all of their new seasonal ciders. My favorite is the Hostler, the perfect balance of dryness and sweetness.
Great little cidery! Had live music playing while we enjoyed our fire roasted pizza and ciders!! Must visit and try the food and drinks!!
Delicious pizza and really good dry and sweet ciders. Loved the cheese board as well. However, I think they should have done better with the service (at least with us). It started ok ???? but at the end I felt very bad. We wanted to order something else and they just brought the machine to pay, it was like they wanted us to leave :s .. we didn't even had the chance to say it .. it felt very bad and uncomfortable.. I hope this doesn't happend often ????
Two different flights of ciders available, yummy flatbread and ice cream, gorgeous huge patio. Live music every evening. Happy hour 3-4:30pm. Closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Beautiful rustic location, great for live music, amazing pizza, friendly service and top notch cider.
Excellent ciders, pizza & atmosphere. It is always positive experience when we make the trek to BX press each summer.
Recommended by friends, we stumbled upon live music on our visit. Hard working, knowledgable and friendly staff(and owner!) who served us. Even a horse n buggy showed up, adding to the farm life feel. With the mountain backdrop, an unforgettable experience locals and visitors should try.
Great spot for a great time. Pizza is always fresh and the rotating menu keeps things interesting. Ciders delicious and there’s an excellent variety.
Nothing beats popping by BX Cidery on a warm sunny day to enjoy a yummy cider in the sunshine amongst the apple trees. I like the atmosphere of this place and the variety of cider flavours on offer. You can purchase flights to see what flavours you like before buying a bottle or 10 to take home with you. On weekends you can also enjoy some pizza and even some live music if you're lucky.
Awesome to sit in the apple orchard and sample their amazing ciders. My fav was a cinnamon cranberry, like Christmas in a glass, delicious ????
Amazing ciders and atmosphere
Local gem. A must-do when I'm Vernon. Love this place on a warm summer evening. They have wood fired pizza, live music and fantastic cider. Lovely ambiance with their outdoor seating. Check website for more details. Pizza ends after Sept long. They also sell apples starting end of Sept. Their honeycrisp apples are to die for! Nothing beats a juicey sweet apple. One suggestion - It would be great if they partnered up with a local brewery. I love cider however I can't get my partner to come as he only drinks beer.
This place is awesome. While on a recent camping trip to Vernon we stopped here on a recommendation from locals and was not disappointed. We did the tasting which provided an awesome history of the area, the land and the people who farm it. The ciders were great and my wife bought some which never made the trip home as she drank them all. I would highly recommend a visit to this little gem to anybody in the area.
Really well prepared tasting with lots of local history mixed in. Great place to visit and some excellent ciders.
For those who aren't into wine this is a must do on our list. The cider is delicious, the staff are helpful and friendly, they talk about the longevity of the orchard and how they make their cider from the apples grown on site. The entertainment is the detailed story telling on how they name their ciders based on local history. They have a freshly installed brick pizza oven that looks like a nice addition to the cold cider you can purchase onsite. Rumor has it they will be starting a walking tour of the orchard and operation this summer that takes about 45 minutes, check with them for details.
My partner and I had come to this cidery based off of recommendation. I had my dog with me, and under normal circumstances she wouldn’t be able to join us. Due to covid-19 the dining situation was setup outdoors, so she was able to join! I had ordered the flight 2 sampler which consisted of 4 drinks. Crackwhip, Ginny, lavender raspberry and vanilla plum. These range from less sweet to sweetest. Their flavors are excellent. I had ordered a margherita pizza @$19.00, and my partner ordered a Wild Mushroom & Artichoke pizza. Both orders were very flavorful and made in a fire pizza stove, so it’s quite authentic. The ciders are made on location, so it was a privilege to sample an array of their specialties.
Went here last Monday for live music and cider. So fun! Tried the Hazy Rhubarb Cider and it's now one of my faves.
Loved our tour with Jasmine!!! Entertaining and informative. Silver Fox is still my fav!
Just moved to Vernon from Vancouver and I’m so happy BX Cidery exists! We were cheerfully greeted by one of the many servers and seated right away. The seating is wonderful, right next to the orchard but with lots of options to sit in the shade. Excellent choice of ciders and drinks to choose from, including flights. My friends and I ordered two of the pizzas to share and they were delivered piping hot and were delicious. I recommend the garlic and kale pizza, and I don’t even like kale, but the whole thing was perfection. Our server refreshed our water throughout the meal without us having to ask and checked in with us enough that we felt taken care of, but not annoyed, which I appreciate. As we left, the live music was starting so we are going to return again soon and make sure we get to experience that. I cannot recommend BX Cidery enough!
AMAZING little hidden gem!! Found these guys putting together a little BC care pack for the family back home. WOW! I challenge you to find better ciders! MMMM! & don't forget to grab some apples while you're there! :D
A very relaxing place to hang out and taste some ciders & fire roasted pizza while taking in some tunes form local artists. Highly recommend a visit to this hidden gem in the Okanagan!
We had a wonderful time during our tasting tour with Kim. She was very friendly and knowledgeable on the history of the orchard and were able to answer all our questions on how ciders are made. The tour is free and is by donation, but need to book ahead of time. They have a wide variety of cider to choose from. We end up buying a couple boxes of cider and apple juices. Highly recommend visiting them during your stay at Vernon.
Had a lovely lunch here last week. The pizza was delicious and the sweet cider flight was great too! I bought a couple to take home as well!
BX press is an amazing look into the Okanagan’s history. If you haven’t been I would definitely recommend visiting! It’s very family friendly, my children really enjoyed their lavender lemonade, and the location is beautiful. It’s so nice to sit in the sun, under an apple tree and drink the cider that was grown there. I would definitely recommend trying a flight your first time as they offer such delicious variety of ciders and very unique flavours, it’s worth having a little bit of everything. They also offer wood fire pizza which is fantastic and they do live music events! Whether you’re local or visiting, it’s definitely worth checking out.
I love BX Press ciders. My search for a perfect cider has ended! I enjoy them all and could not pick a favorite among the BX Press ciders because they are all unique and delicious. They are not sweet and the effervescence is perfect. I have shared a few with friends and they were all delighted and wanted more. Stop by the tasting room (or the website) and learn the history behind BX and their labels - and treat your taste buds with some samples. I bet you'll walk out with a case!
We are visiting from Ontario and enjoyed a wonderful night at the cidery. Awesome food, great music, friendly people and my first experience with having cider!! I even bought some to bring home! Thanks for the great experience.
Was able to book the tour easily online and Francis was very knowledgeable and passionate about the Orchard and cidery. The Cidery follows social distancing policies. What makes this Cidery special is they pick their own apples and make their own cider. Their lavender lemonade and peach ice tea was also refreshing.
Great BC cider, with very nice owners and helpful staff. All the ciders are named in relation to the history of the area and the BX Express stagecoach company. Ciders include dry, off-dry, hopped, cherry, black currant cardamom, raspberry lavender, and now haskap (and more). Cider tastings are fun. Long table dinners in the summer look fun.
We went to BX Cidery over the weekend and could not have been more pleased with the experience. It started off a little rocky waiting 30 mins for our drinks to arrive but the manager came by and apologized for the wait and unbenouced to us came back in the middle of our meal and brought us a couple cidars for the wait we had. The food was great and being a dog owner we loved how pet friendly they are. Keep up the great work!
Great atmosphere! Awesome tasting ciders one for everyone's taste. Food was great and the live music was a huge plus.
I arrived here 4 hours early for a dinner reservation with my brother by mistake lol. We took a shuttle from the airport so we didn’t have a car to just leave and come back when it was our time. We had no other option but to spend the full 4 hours waiting for our dinner party. The staff/ownership took our luggage and welcomed us into their restaurant and orchard for the afternoon. We walked in @1pm as strangers and left @6:30pm feeling that we had made new friends. Over the whole time we were there the staff made conversation with us and did there best to make us feel welcomed. We even made friends with the head chef who went as far as to make us a custom pizza that wasn’t even on the menu! When we weren’t chatting with staff and eating the wonderful food we were off walking in the beautiful orchard and listening to the peaceful live music. All and all it was the best 5.5 hours I have ever spent at a restaurant lol. You definitely don’t want to miss this place if your in Vernon!
Such a great place ! I was alone and they set up a table just for me underneath an apple tree! The ciders are really good, and the board of charcuterie and cheese was so tasty! They had a singer on stage when I was there (Zoe Marie Welch, check her out, she is great!!!) and it added to the amazing evening I had :)
Wonderful experience for summer: drinking a flight of craft ciders on the covered patio along with charcuterie and fresh wood-fired pizza. We loved the artisan cheddar cheese and the plum cider
All around awesome! Highly recommend the tasting session, which also includes a talk about the orchard and cider making. (Thank you, Frances!) The cider is fantastic and dinner was great.
Some of the most unique and delicious ciders! The team is also friendly and incredibly helpful.
Great place to go with some friends. We went in the fall and were able to sit outside with our cider flights. They were very knowledgable in the products and the workers were very friendly. They even helped track the cider dig down for us to pet! We were very happy with the ciders and will definitely come again.
Excellent customer service. They were willing to meet before store hours so we could purchase more cider to take home. Best cider I have ever had. A must to experience.
What a great spot! Delicious selection of ciders ranging from dry to sweet. The pizza is delicious too!
Fantastic atmosphere & hospitality at this cidery. Delicious cider selection across both traditional and novel flavours. Excellent menu, adequately diverse and very tasty. Roomy, shaded outdoor lounge area with a well-spaced selection of tables both on the covered patio and set among the orchard trees. Was definitely worth the drive to this off-the-beaten-path quiet setting for a mid-aft lunch. Very diverse exciting line-up of live music talent in queue for this 2021 season. The rustic, simple covered & lighted stage is smartly positioned to accommodate both entertainers' needs and audience alike in fostering a rather perfectly comfortable outdoor setting for sipping, dining or snacking, listening and re-charging.
If you are really into cider, you'll love BX Press! They have some of the best artisan cider in the Valley. They grow traditional cider apples producing very tasty, sophisticated ciders. We were blown away by the Malus single variety apple cider. Of course, they have the sweeter ciders as well .Just go and get some of their brilliant product in a beautiful setting.
Best ciders ever!!! Great selection of different tastes. Worth checking out if your driving through Vernon.
Great place to pop by and grab a craft cider. You can enjoy a flight of ciders so you can try lots of different varieties. It's a beautiful spot on a sunny day to hang out. And you can also get wood fired pizza at certain times. You can also buy the cider at the Vernon Farmers Market and at local liquor stores.
Our friend organized a meet-up for all of us. He thought we would enjoy it and he was entirely correct....for the most part. The food and the cider we're truly next level. The only downside to the entire evening was that they had scheduled in a small string group of about four or five women playing various instruments. Unfortunately for whatever reason I don't believe they were using any sound equipment and so our little group of 8 people who had spent probably close to $500 were subjected to the derision of those who came to watch the band. Had we known that a band was going to be there coupled with the intensity of the people who were mercilessly shushing us we may have opted for a different venue.
A must go place if you are in town for a visit, try their ciders they are very smooth and great in taste. Loved it, ambiance is really good and live music adds to the finishing touches
We shared a cider from BX at our friends house during our vacation to Vernon and made a point of staying an extra day just to visit the cidery. Needless to say it was the smart choice as Jasmine gave us a tasting of their impressive range of ciders while presenting a history on how each flavor came to be. We ended up leaving with 3 cases of cider! We will absolutely be back next time we head out that way!
Amazing ciders and pizzas. Lots of options for dairy free, gluten free or vegan pizzas. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this beautiful orchard and plan to make this a regular stop when we are in town!
This Orchard is gorgeous. The staff is friendly and their Apple Juice is Superbly superior to store-brands!
Cider taste and quality 5/5 best cider I have ever experienced. The cider price is a bit more than name brand cider at the liquor store but the taste it well worth it. The tasting room is nice but if you want to sit you have to wait as you arent able to bring your samples outside. If you want to sit outside they only pour at certain times. Staff was quite friendly and knowledgable about their products. Overall i highly recommend stopping by if you are looking for something to do in the Vernon area
Fantastic setting - we were seated among the apple trees. The ciders were really interesting, different, and delicious.
Awesome atmosphere! Tasting ciders, nibbling on firewood pizza among apple trees! Wow!
Awesome place and time, enjoying the live music and excellent cider.
As always, beautiful atmosphere (new patio is perfect!), desirable ciders and delish food!! The entertainment was a nice touch to the evening! Will be back...
Wonderful outdoor restaurant and venue. Regular live music. Enjoyed sitting outside and watching a band play, surrounded by the orchard trees, a really nice place to be!
This is a great place to sip cider whilst relaxing in an orchard. Dog friendly, good food and great service. Worth going out of your way.
As always BX Press was a wonderful place to visit. Great service and amazing quality authentic cider (not that sweet sugar/syrup junk!). New addition of little picnic charcuterie boxes were yummy!
We went for the tour and it was great. They have a little covered seating area out in the orchard where they teach you about the ciders, the land and the history. It was very interesting. Our host was superb! She was very engaging and knowledgeable and also happens to be one of the cider makers. The cider was delicious. Some of the best I've had. Highly recommended!
