"Despite opening in 2022, the family behind this cidery has been in the apple business for four generations, running the nearby Oregon Heritage Farms. Build a four-cider flight with flavors like an aromatic honeycrisp, citrusy yuzu plum, semi-dry blood orange sage, and floral-fruity blackberry lavender. Enjoy a fresh hot pretzel served with house-made cider cheese inside the converted barn-turned-tasting room, or take in some fresh air on the back patio, which offers an idyllic view of a miniature railway and trestle bridge." - Janey Wong

"Despite its recent opening in October 2022, the family behind this new cidery has been in the apple business for four generations, running the nearby Oregon Heritage Farms. Enjoy a flight and house-made cider cheese served with a fresh hot pretzel inside the converted barn-turned-tasting room, or take in some fresh air on the back patio, which offers an idyllic view of a miniature railway and trestle bridge. The idea of a pineapple cider may conjure up a tropical summery scene, but 19 Acres’ rendition is intended to be a winter warmer with notes of allspice, cloves, and cardamom — it can even be ordered warm." - Janey Wong

We visited 19 Acres after a trip to Oregon Heritage Farms and I’m so glad the lady working told us about this place (I hadn’t stopped in for a couple years and didn’t realize there was a cider house). Not a lot of dairy/meat free snack options but we still had a great time. My partner got the pretzel with cheese and loved the elevated cider cheese. I got the hummus plate. All the ciders were enjoyable. Cute little spot!

Overall, a wonderful experience. The grounds and restaurant are immaculate and beautiful. From what I understood, the former owner was a model train enthusiast and built an extensive track around the property, including some impressive train trestles. The food was top notch, and the ciders were fantastic. They can accommodate groups up to 100 for weddings, parties, etc. I can not recommend this place enough!

I have been wanting to try this out for awhile and finally got the chance! It is tucked back off the road in a serene little valley. There are two outdoor seating areas and a large indoor area. There is also a train track that goes around the property but I’m not certain what the train is used for. We each did a flight of cider and enjoyed most of them. My favorites were the yuzu plum and lemon. They also had a key lime which had sweetened condensed milk. It was unique and delicious! This is only 10 minutes from our house and we will be back!

Nice relaxing time at 19 Acres Cider. Nice way to break up the expensiveness of the wineries and do something more budget friendly! Not much of a view, but it has a nice atmosphere and the building is very cool where it’s located. We did a flight tasting. We loved the blood orange sage cider! Yum!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 19 Acres Cider Co. is simply the best! Their tasting room is cozy and welcoming, with beautiful views of the orchards that really set the scene for an authentic cider experience. The staff are passionate and knowledgeable about their ciders, walking you through each unique flavor profile with genuine enthusiasm. Every cider is fresh, crisp, and made with love—you can taste the quality in each sip! The variety offered ensures there’s something for everyone, from classic apple to creative seasonal blends. I can’t recommend this place enough, whether you’re a cider lover or new to it, 19 Acres is a must-visit!

Great cider, great atmosphere. You can tell a lot of love went into making this tasting room and it was a joy to spend time at!

Hidden gem, we didn’t know was here! As a former beer drinker (need to be gluten free) I’m super skeptical of cider being over sweet and one note, but this place impressed me in all the right ways. Family friendly, attentive and friendly staff, laid back atmosphere and not overly sweet ciders. Very impressed. The taco truck parked out front offered some good GF options for me and my family as well!

Such a wonderful time! My wife and I each got a flight and shared the charcuterie and a pretzel. The snacks were great and there were some really good ciders but my absolute favorite was the Brazilian limeade. I've never had anything similar to that, 10/10 recommend trying that one if you like sweet drinks.

I have had a couple of different ciders from 19 Acres in the past and I was very impressed by them. I was highly impressed with their Honeycrisp cider. And it's with that cider I'm pushing this review to a five star score with considerable ease. It was so refreshing and just a great cider all the way around. It's a semi-dry cider which I like this type a lot so that was an extra plus. Flavor features to find with this awesome beverage are apple, clean aftertaste and sweet. The body is smooth and the color bright. The other cider I had was a Cherry Cider, that was a good one as well. Flavors with that one are cherries of course, a dry finish and sweet. The cider is light bodied and very refreshing. But my heart truly lies with the Honeycrisp cider and I highly recommend it.

I have purchased their honey crisp in the store and decided to pop in as I made my way to the beach. I asked to taste several ciders and the host was quick to oblige. His favorites (and least favorites) were the same as mine and I left with a bag full of cider to toast by the ocean. POG is sooooo good. Thanks for the great service! I need to know more about the miniature train track!! It looks so fun!

We came in on a Saturday afternoon during a heat wave with 2 friends and their toddler. The indoor space is roomy and there are lots of seating outside as well. We picked a spot inside and went up to order two flights as we wanted to try more flavors. The staff was super friendly and took the time to provide a few recommendations for us. Out of all the ones we've tried, my favorite is the Brazilian limenade. It's sweet and refreshing, more like a cocktail than a cider. Also I noticed there is a kids railway track around the cidery. It wasn't open during our visit but it'd be so fun for the kids if it was. As we were leaving we saw someone setting up for a live performance. Would love to be back here next time we come back to visit!

We were looking for a place to relax and unwind after a long hike. In the fall, I couldn't imagine a better location! With beautiful apples, growing in a small orchard on the drive-in, a cute model train set up, and a welcoming taste room with a spacious outdoor patio, this was exactly what we needed! The pretzel with cider cheese, and the almonds were outstanding, and the ciders were really unique, featuring lots of fruit flavors. In particular, the one that had almond and orange was refreshing! And of course, boysenberry is a state staple. It feels like you are a world away from everything, but that is exactly what the vibe is going for and it was perfect for this purpose! Everyone was super nice and accommodating in terms of letting a split a single tasting between two people in favor of having lots of food. I would definitely recommend this as a fun fall outing!

Driving to Newberg, I spotted the sign for 19 Acres Cider and had a feeling it would be special. My intuition was spot on! A few weeks later, my husband and I made the trip for their opening at noon. The sunny weather was perfect for the beautiful outdoor seating. The grounds were stunning, and the ciders? Amazing! We did a tasting of eight and loved the variety. We also went for the Charcuterie Board, and based on the recommendation, added the Soft Pretzel with Cider Cheese. Everything ended up getting dipped in that incredible cheese - it was that good! Our favorite cider was a total surprise - the Brazilian Limeade! It was such a unique and delicious choice, we had to grab another glass. Needless to say, we're hooked! We'll definitely be back, and this time, bringing a whole crew to share the experience. Added bonus - while it was not running, there is a train track that goes all around the property. You can't ride it, but how fun will it be to watch?!

Came here on a recent Saturday. Was looking to sit outside and enjoy their cider but only 2 tables had shade. Found a table inside that had a great view of outside though. Service is friendly and quick. They had a food truck that we ordered lunch from- street tacos and nachos.

19 Acres had a delightful environment covered in falling multicolored leaves and an old town vibe. Immediately upon arrival you are greeted with a mini train station and tracks and saloon like buildings. The grounds are incredibly beautiful. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly as well. I got a flight of ciders that was great! The cheese and pretzel side meal was delightful too, however the cheese is very sharp so please be advised on your cheese preferences. I recommend this for a nice cider tasting afternoon. I would come back again. The honey crisp was the winner for me! Note there were many box elder bugs covering the porch, and quite a few bees flying around. So if you are afraid of bugs maybe be cautious when coming here.

I saw this place while driving by and decided it was a place I needed to visit. It's a wonderful location with a great patio area outside of the tasting room. It looks like an amazing event space. On my visit we had a tasting flight of about 1/2 of the ciders on tap. We also had the cheese board as well. The ciders were ok, seemed a bit dry to me, but I did sample the pommeau first and that may have played a part in that. The cheese board was nice, but the blue cheese is strong. The staff was friendly and efficient.

Great selection of ciders, and the Brazilian Limeade is to die for. The platters are all great, especially anything that comes with the fig jam!

Such a great addition to the area! Perfect place to hang out and entertain with friends with amazing ciders and small bites. Bonus is they are baby/kid friendly as well! Kudos for the high chair availability and changing table in the bathrooms!! I wish I remembered to take a picture of their cider board but they have so many to choose from: honey crisp, Marionberry, imperial, pineapple, passion fruit, their new strawberry hibiscus, and a new seasonal Yule where you can get either cold or hot. I definitely recommend the flight (it comes in 4 choices) so you can try them all! The staff was also very helpful and friendly as well. The charcuterie board we got paired really well with the drinks and (not pictured) the pretzel was soft and chewy with creamy rich cider cheese. Limited food choices but the cider and ambiance is great here! Side note: our engineer friend who used to work for a railroad was nerding out about the small train tracks around the property! They asked the staff about it and apparently the previous owner built the whole thing themselves! So cool!

Cider was great and the setting was beautiful- a perfect way to relax and try new ciders. Justin was fantastic and told us about the history of the place and the original owners love of trains. We will definitely be back!

I think this place has only been open a few weeks now, but we really enjoyed the atmosphere and ciders. They had 8 or so ciders on tap available to try and a few others in bottles. Good selection of beer and wine too for those who prefer something else. The setting here is the real draw. The main area is a totally redone barn with very impressive woodwork. The weather was less than ideal when we visited but the outside area looked really nice. Of note, is a 2+ mile model train track that goes around the property which apparently was from a previous owner. There are impressive rail bridges and tracks built for that. It sounds like those will be running next summer which will be cool. Definitely worth a stop to visit or at least a detour when visiting Ponzi or other wineries in the area. We will definitely be back.

Went here for the first time last weekend- had no idea this place existed! Worth the drive. Excellent vibe and atmosphere and even better cider.

Great place for some cider and a snack! We got two flights so we could try eight of their 12 flavors. We really enjoyed their ciders. They are not overly sweet and the fruity ones taste very natural. Our favorites were the Marionberry and the Strawberry Hibiscus. Each flight is $12 which I think is pretty reasonable. Food boards range from $11-32. We got the pretzel and the meat board. Meat board was $19 which is a bit pricey, but we enjoyed it. Great, fast service. Staff was friendly and answered questions. I'm excited to go back during nicer weather when the doors will be open and we can sit outside. We also bought one of their growlers. It was $24 for the bottle and a fill. Refilling it is $12. The also had an insulated growler for $60. Great atmosphere. Glasses, shirts, and hats were also for sale.
