Apple Holler

Easy to order, cute décor, quick service. The hot food was hot, the strawberry cornbread with apple butter was delicious. My husband tried an apple cider flight and they were very good. Overall, a great experience and we'll definitely be back there and bring some friends.

We had such a great time picking apples here last Sunday! It was the perfect fall family day and a fun way to teach my toddler that apples don’t grow in Costco bags 😅 It was pretty busy (as expected for a weekend), and by the time we arrived around 10 AM, the parking lot was already full. Tickets were also on the pricier side (each person needs their own bag to pick, and even the smallest one costs about $20). But once we got past the entrance crowd, the vibe totally changed. Out in the orchard, it felt peaceful and spacious, we practically had a whole row of apple trees to ourselves! 🍏🍎 The place is well-maintained, and we appreciated seeing security staff patrolling, made everything feel organized despite the crowds. My toddler also got to experience her first pony ride, which made her day! 🐴💕 We loved relaxing in the open barn area, eating lunch while enjoying live music, such a cozy touch. Overall, a great experience and definitely price-worthy for a family outing. We left with happy hearts, full bags, and one proud little apple picker. 🍂✨

We visited on a Monday, perfect time to go! Not crowded at all! Arrived at 10am to eat brunch in the restaurant. Seated & served quickly. Delicious food! We were able to do everything in the activity areas with no wait & we had a blast! Rode the wagon out into the orchard to pick apples & shopped in the general store all with no lines or waiting. Ended up staying till 4pm. Definitely will return.....& definitely on a Monday! 😁

Such a lovely place to go apple picking! Even though the parking lots were full, the place is so big that it didn’t feel crowded. We got through the line quickly and had a great time wandering through the beautiful orchard picking apples. They have so many unique varieties - it’s a great way to try different types of apples! They also have peaches in the summer, so we definitely will have to go earlier in the year. It was nice being able to hop on the trolley and ride back to the front after we were done picking. Overall a really nice farm with quality apples, good food, and nice folks.

Loved this place. There is so much to do for kids, plus apple picking. Their cute dining area had really good food. You order at a counter then sit down to be served. It was one of the best BLT's I have ever had.

Always a good time. If you're apple pickup walkable comfortable shoes is necessary. Lot of sun, pony rides , restaurants, alcohol n non-alcoholic beverages. A lot stuff for the kids n put on bug spray with sunscreen. U need to wear shorts too. We have a good time. Love it.

First time at Apple Holler and it lived up to all the great things we’d heard! We ate at the restaurant ,the biscuits and gravy were delicious, and the sides, apple cider, and apple pie really hit the spot. The whole place has such a warm, welcoming feel. Great atmosphere for both little ones and adults. We’ll definitely be back!

One of the best experiences ever. We went for peach picking and it was really fun, excited and delicious Haha. We drove for 90 miles - round trip 180 miles just for this and it doesn’t let me down. Although it’s near the end season surprisingly delicious and plenty of fresh fruits from the tree. Overall love it and worth to try just for a while.

We came out to Apple Holler last month when we were near the area for a wedding. We opted to come for breakfast, and we really enjoyed it. The food was pretty good, and reasonably priced. We ordered the drunken french toast, the apple turnover breakfast, and 2 drinks. Our favorite was the cheesy hashbrowns. Those were phenomenal. We had thought about getting a small bag to go apple picking, BUT each person has to buy a bag, and the smallest bags were $22. I'm not paying $44 to go into an orchard and pick like...10 apples. (We didn't want to get many since we don't live in the area.) Besides that, we had some fun walking around the shop. Pro-tip: buy the dill pickle hot sauce. SO GOOD. The rest of the place seems to be geared to kids, so if you've got little ones, this would be a great spot to spend a day. I'd recommend coming here at least once!

Apple Holler is a great place to spend a fall day with family and friends. We went apple picking on a beautiful Saturday morning, but the main parking lot was already full by 9:30 am. Luckily, we found a spot along the road and it was just a short walk to the orchard. We picked two 1/4-peck bags of apples, $22 each - which was plenty for us. Apple Holler has a huge variety of apples to choose from, and the trees were loaded with fruit! After picking apples, we enjoyed some delicious fresh-pressed cider. I was a little disappointed that they no longer have the barrel-aged cider, which was my favorite in years past. One of the staff members told us they recently changed vendors. Even though it was a busy day, the orchard was well-organized with clear signs and plenty of staff to answer questions. We didn't have to wait long to pay our admission or get our cider. While prices have increased a bit we still had a wonderful time and would come back next year!

Wow! I'll start by saying I was here a few years ago and I wasn't impressed. Today I am! It's super cute here with activities and a gift shop. I'm just here to bring a group and kill time so I went straight to the restaurant. Like so many places they have changed to a place where you order at the counter and they bring your food. I ordered a cheeseburger with hash brown casserole. The food came after a reasonable time. The server was very nice and genuinely happy to make sure I was comfortable and liked my food. The food was piping hot and very tasty. Good job, guys! I'll be back. Can't wait to check out the gift shop!

We love coming here every time we go to the Packers game. They also have the best apples when apple picking. The apples last months in your fridge. They are a little on the pricy side when picking them off the trees but well worth it!

We had such an amazing time! Don't let the traffic intimidate you. This place is massive! There is endless activities for kids. The food was delicious. A bit pricey but worth it in my opinion. Just a few of the things that they had for kids were pony rides, a maze, a bouncy pad, a playground, a bike race track, and much more! And of course, the Apple orchard!

This place is super beautiful! The market and bakery have amazing items! We ordered food and sat down at a table. They give you complementary cornbread and apple butter. Both very good. We ordered an apple dumpling and it was good but still a little cold inside. I ordered the chicken and biscuits with gravy and they were amazing!! My boyfriend ordered the apple French toast and thought it was underwhelming. It was a little cold. Next, we went apple picking. Altogether it was a fun experience, but pricey. You have to buy a bag to enter the orchard and the cheapest option is $22. The smallest bag only fits ~6 apples. They were very very tasty though. Finally, we went to the farm/play area. The animals were cute and we enjoyed feeding them. They have several activities that many young children would enjoy.

I love Apple Holler! Decided to stop and have breakfast. I had the Mexican omelette with hashbrowns. So fresh and delicious. The restaurant is beautifully clean and inviting. Service is top notch. Besides the restaurant they have apple picking and special events in the fall such as hayrides and pumpkin picking. The hayride takes you right through our beautiful orchard and straight to the best apple-picking spots! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic journey! The staff here is always courteous, cheerful, very helpful.

Had lots of fun with mt family today. Got some delicious apples. My youngest had a great time making me chase him thru the maze as well as going down the slide over aand over. We been going here last 5 to 6 years. Our new tradition. Always coming back.

Excellent place to stop to check out and eat. We had a light lunch with probably the best French onion soup I ever had , Bloody Mary was great and onion straws very good. They have homemade peanut butter samples ( very tasty). Will stop in again for breakfast!

Been coming for the last 9 years. Love this place. However, the food lines are embarrassingly slow. And it wasn't that busy. I've been here when it was busier. Management should address that. Stood in line for 15 minutes and it didn't move an inch. Everyone on line started commenting about it. Again love you guys. Just thought you know.

Great food and portions - I was bit confused on how to get a table and order but just go to the counter. They put your name on the list, buzz u with a device when it's your turn and then you order at the counter. Food arrived quickly. Everyone there was so friendly. We were there right before it gets super busy for the fall events. If you are local and can go on a non busy time, I highly recommend it.

First time apple picking with my family! This was so much better than I expected. Especially with all the extra activities for the kids. We ended up spending more time here than I thought!

We came here in October and we had a great time. They gave us a map and we are off to the orchard. I love how they have a lot of the various types of apples and they are all good. They have a bakery, pizza and adult drink stand too. Their bakes goods are in-house and I particularly love their donuts, pies and flaky apple turnovers. Don't forget the apple cider. Kids will go bonkers for this place and their playground. It's worth the visit and you will have a great day! Every person will need to buy a bag. They accept credit cards. Parking is tricky during weekends.

The three is because it's quite pricey. It's about a 25 minute ride from Milwaukee. Regardless of age it's a minimum of $22 for 1/4th of a peck. Prices go up from there. You get a tractor ride to the orchard and there are many different varieties of apples. Everyone was super nice. They had cider donuts and simple food like dogs and pizza. A small petting zoo with maze was included. The restaurant was closed on Saturday. Price is probably the only reason we'd go back to our regular place.

They've lost me on going into the orchard with the excessive pricing on that. The cheapest pricing for each person is $22. It would be easier to pay a fee per person and choose the size of container for your apples and pay that than the idea of $66 for three people (two under 10) and get three tiny 1/4 peck bags. We skipped that and got two giant bags of apples and a half dozen donuts for under $30. And, the restaurant is closed on the weekends for September and October, so what is the point? We used to come for the breakfast buffet and then go from there. It's way too monetised at this point and parking, even with the extra lot that the south is a mess, especially when it has rained.

Like many other reviewers here, I've driven by Apple Holler many times on my commute and this Saturday morning with company in town I decided to go there for breakfast. It wasn't crowded, we were able to sit right away and find plenty of parking. No table service so you order at the counter and then shortly they come out with complimentary small pieces of cornbread served with their house-made apple butter. The cornbread is very delicious, and the apple butter isn't as sweet as I thought it would be but still a little too sweet for me. You feel like you're on someone's grandparents farm in the country while you're here. It's cozy and kitschy throughout the whole building. The food was really good. I got one of the specials which was a pork chop and 2 eggs and it was surprisingly very good. We got some donuts for the table and they were light and fluffy and so flavorful. Highly recommend those. Right now they are selling large bags of apples, buy 1 get 1 free. You can mix and match. We grabbed a couple bags and the apples were still firm and fresh which is considerable given who knows when they were picked given that it's June. Just a nice spot to stop into for a meal or to stretch your legs and look at the horses or goats as you're passing through.

Apple Holler is a must visit during the fall here in Wisconsin! However, after apple picking once here a few years ago, I solely now just visit for the bakery and cider each year. Hit or miss on whether you get a friendly employee or not. The orchard is beautiful and there's lots of outdoor activities for little ones, but the price points are simply just way too high for apple picking and activities. If you're not worried about budget or crowds, this is a great place. Personally, I will stick to picking up some donuts and cider here every year and just apple picking elsewhere.

Absolutely adorable. What's up with the low reviews? I obviously drove by this place 5,000 times and had to stop this time. The food is great!

This has been a family tradition for 3 yrs now. But one thing that I must mention is how their apple cider donuts are incomparable! I tried buying cider donuts from other places but nothing can compare to the one apple holler makes!!!! Can get very busy in the summer with apple picking

The self service ordering and self serve coffee was the lamest idea ever. Never seen anything like it. The staff very unfriendly,food so salty....This is part two of my first review!

Evercrisp.. all day.. get the Evercrisp apples. The pears were good (if you can find them), Sommerset, and Fuji are amongst some favorites. Evercrisp was the favorite for everyone. Me, my wife, and our friends had a great time. So many apples of all kinds. Please bring the children. They can run around and get tired, plus there's a little 'train' that takes you to the orchard. Also, Wisconsin and its residents always show us a good time. Being from Chicago (and a Bears fan) im always curious to see how other towns treat us during football season but when I come to Wisconsin we're always treated with respect. I love it. I forgot to add...please buy the pie. The apple pie was so good that im thinking about driving 2 hours just to get it. In fact, if you're reading this and driving back to chicago, pick me up 1 or 2 pies, thanks lol

This was my mom's favorite place to buy apple pies. She like the fact that you could purchase a whole pie in a brown bag and cook it at home in your oven. Bringing the farm style goodness to your own kitchen. In warmer weather they have a petting zoo and walk around the grounds of a working farm. There is a restaurant on site, which I will try on my next visit.

Very delicious! Great service! Very welcoming and great people working here! There apple cider was very delicious as well!

The apples there are really good! Way better than store-bought apples! I also really like the donuts and the cookies. The goats are very nice. The employees are very nice. The restaurant is very nicely decorated.

Cider beer and big portions of food! Try the pancakes and nice lil area for kids to stay busy for an hour or so with play areas and seeing animals

We are in town from Arizona and drove up with family that lives in Chicago, based on their recommendation. We came to Apple Holler in early November and it wasn't the best time of year as it was late in the season but we still were able to have the apple picking experience. There are tons of rows with a wide variety of apples to choose from. Plenty of activities for kids outside of apple picking as well. They sell fresh baked goods, have a bbq stand and a large gift shop where they sell their salsas in a jar, bottled cider, popcorn and more! I think it's worth the trip but I will say it is a bit pricey but hey, it's an experience. If you apple pick multiple times per year that may be too much but for a first timer I willingly paid for the experience!

My husband and I found this little GEM while heading back home. The apple donuts are freakin delicious! Fresh and soft! Their Strawberry loaf is out of this world! I think pretty much anything they have there is pretty darn good! Take a ride , staff is very nice as well!

Apple Holler is always worth the trip. I make a yearly pilgrimage here with family to pick apples and to stock up on goods from their fabulous bakery. The staff is unfailingly helpful and welcoming, and they've expanded their range of activities over recent years. As for the orchard, we've always been able to pick apples there, no matter how late in the season we show up. The bag sizes they offer are actually sort of perfect -- you won't end up with rotting apples, but you'll have enough to last you a week or two after you get back. My all-time favorite at the bakery is their mini pumpkin pie. That said, even I (a longtime donut-hater) have to admit that their apple cider and pumpkin donuts are not to be missed. We've also tried their apple bread, which could use more apples but which disappeared quickly. If you live closer to the Holler or don't mind the commute from the Chicago area, they're open year-round and also have a restaurant next to the bakery, so be sure to stop by.

The service and food were excellent! Everyone was incredibly welcoming! We recently relocated to this area from Illinois and were a bit shy, but our experience was fantastic. The prices were reasonable, and everything was fresh and delicious.

Always have a super time at Apple Holler. And can't leave without a trip into the bakery to pick out some treats and wine to bring home!

Stopped by to pickup two pies.....unfortunately had to throw away both pies as the insides of both were moldy.

Always has been and will continue to be thee family go to every fall season ! Scrumptious mmm :)

This place is a SHAM! Was told that I had to pay 12$ for my 1 year old that can barely walk. I asked what the charge was for and I was told that it was for the kids play area and goats. I again explained to the staff that my child isn't able to use any of what came with the charge and STILL WAS TOLD TO PAY! The staff was rude and treated myself and other customers with disrespect as if we were inconveniencing them. You pay 25$ for a bag that fits about 5 apples for each person. Don't bother with this place.

Such a wholesome, nostalgic fun place to pick apples. A train ride through the orchard. They have small feeding animals, a slide, gift and food shop. Their restaurant have good burgers, chicken wraps, mac & cheese etc. Enjoyed Jilene's customer service. Thanks.

I bought a loaf of cheese bread that had a huge hole from one end to the other making it impossible to slice. I only got two end slices without a hole. I had to cut the rest in chunks. Absolutely ridiculous. So I sent them a message with the pictures you see here and asked for a replacement, not my money back, just a replacement. Instead, I was told it's "completely normal" and no mention of replacing. No, a hole that large should never be accepted as "completely normal"; it shows production issues which they are completely ignoring. They obviously don't care about their products, just taking your money. Makes me wonder about the quality of their other food. Despite the hole, was the bread good? Actually no, the cheese around the hole was tough and very chewy, and the end pieces were just plain bread, so the majority was tossed. Instead of doing the right thing and replacing that loaf like I asked, they lost customers. I'm sure they don't care about that either.

I visited Apple holler today and enjoyed one of the best breakfast I've had in as long as I can remember but even before that I was immediately impressed just upon entering the parking lot with all of the decorations outside and a beautiful patio surrounded by a small garden with gorgeous Flowers and bird's nests which were heavily occupied. Upon entering the building you'll immediately notice the bakery section full of homemade pies, Apple butter, cakes, muffins, fudge, and specialty breads like apple pie and strawberry which will leave you stuck in your tracks along with other homemade candies in addition to homemade cider, hard cider, and even cider slushies!!! Apple Holler also offers many items for sale aside from food including antique style decor and many options to decorate your garden. Make sure to take advantage of the walking tours of their orchard, a play area, for kids plus different events throughout the seasons and plenty of options and activities for the family to enjoy but I think the real star of the show is their food which is so much better than anything I've had in a very long time. I got a classic eggs breakfast which may sound simple but there was nothing boring about it with homemade biscuits, homemade apple butter, and even the option to choose pulled pork and corned beef as your meat of choice I left full as can be along with my family who had a great time so if you're in the area stop at Apple holler even if you're not hungry lol.

I really wanted to love it here and I have seen that it is a popular orchard and that they have Autumn Crisp apples, my fav. Unfortunately it was just too popular for us to enjoy. We came on a Sunday and granted that was our first mistake but the only day my husband had free. Parking was almost impossible to find, many parked on the street. We did end up finding parking and then did a double take at the line to get a picking bag. There was police present to help direct things. The line to get on the heyride to the orchard spanned very long. The lines for donuts and cider were just as long winded. It was just very crowded and hectic. Again it's a Sunday, maybe it's less crazy during the week but it was too packed and the lines were too long for us to really enjoy the experience wholeheartedly

I love this place! The prices are a bit higher but I love supporting a local farm. I appreciate being able to sample the fruit as you pick so you know what you like. So far we've done peach and apple picking and I would do both again! Love the tractor ride around the farm! Huge variety of apples!

We were told to get a menu and sit down. When we were seated we were o select our food and then get back into line to order. We could not find a menu and didn't get to the point of finding a table. It looked like they had a great market, but since we couldn't find a menu or a seat we left. It was a nice walk and the animals and village were great for my granddaughter. We left to eat somewhere that would give us a seat and menu. I would have spent more money at the store and restaurant. The procedures to sit need to be more readily understood.

Cold food.. No waitress.. Run down.. Sad! Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hands down the best apple cider doughnuts in SE Wisconsin. Great frozen pie selection for the holidays.

Still a very beautiful and well kept farm, but the 2022 price increases are outrageous. We used to be able to come spend $30-40 for a nice haul of apples. The same amount would cost well over $100 now due to the change in bag size, mandatory bag purchase per person and baited pricing strategy of including all the extra curricular activities instead of making each a la carte pricing. Management should strongly reconsider the approach.

They have the best apple cider donuts I've ever had. Ive also had they apple turnovers, chocolate donuts, and hot cider and have never been disappointed. I've been there a few times and they always have friendly and prompt service. If you're in the area, stop by to enjoy all they have to offer.

Bad food overly crowded. It's basically a tourist trap along the Interstate. Parking is a big problem when busy.

Awesome place. Would go back there again. They are a little bit overpriced at their little store

LOW HANGING FRUIT If an apple a day keeps the doctor away, can I go ahead and cancel my HMO? Recently, I re-visited this quaint place with a small group of Yelpers/friends after a hiatus of several years. It was gorgeous on Saturday 10/13/18 and crowds were manageable when we arrived, though it got crazy busy around 1pm. Located in Sturtevant Wisconsin, about 15 minutes north of the Illinois state line, Apple Holler is a multi-function farm and expansive fruit orchard. They grow peaches, pears, and apples during the warmer months as well as a pumpkin patch once summer ends. In total, it sits on 78 acres of land. "The Holler" has been owned by the Flannery family who've kept the place running across generations. It's a little beat up in spots and could use a minor facelift (couldn't we all??) but being a teensy bit run-down is part of the charm. Things haven't changed much since I came here as a wee lad in the early 90's. Preferred parking is $5, and spots along the nearby frontage road can be tough to come by. My recommendation would be to get here EARLY on a weekend, otherwise the heavy post-church crowds will force you to park what feels like miles away! Ever since I could remember, good ol' fashioned Apple Holler was a surreal assault on all five senses: + the sounds of a rasta man playing Bob Marley hits in the little gazebo (he's there all the time on weekends) + the smells wafting through the air from the pig races, pony rides, and the Golden Goat Bridge (animal pun ftw) + the taste of warm cider donuts rolled in cinnamon sugar, hot Sheboygan brats with mustard, and freshly baked pies + the sights of families pulling their kids all bundled up in adorable red wagons through the orchard + the feel of a crimson, perfectly juicy Jonathan apple That said, I don't remember the orchard prices being as high as they were. A small bag (roughly 1/4 peck, or 3-4 lbs) cost $15 per person, which equates to about $5 per pound of apples! Sure they're *your* special apples, but damn, that's still seems like a lot. There's tons of activities for little ones, like a cow maze, giant slide, and a storybook path. The "corn palace" was a big hit with Nichole C, who rolled around with Ivonne M in a giant sandbox filled with dried corn kernels. My inner germaphobe died that day. We didn't eat in their cute restaurant that looks like a barn, but we spent plenty of money in the bakery. Apple Holler features plenty of market areas that sell pre-picked apples in addition to loads of other goodies. The old fashioned gift shop remains untouched by time; it's lovely. * TL;DR * This orchard near Kenosha is an annual fall pilgrimage for many families, and it's especially close to the hearts of those who've lived in the midwest. All in all, I've likely been to Apple Holler 20 times throughout my life, so yeah, you could say I'd be the Duke (retroactive to 1993). It's pretty touristy and a group of mom + dad + 2 kids could burn through $120 without much effort. Despite the cost and congestion on weekends, I can't think of a better way to spend an autumn day. Apple Holler is a must-visit!

So much fun! Took my niece and nephew on a Friday. Apple picking was lots of fun and they loved all the activities. We also ate at the restaurant and the food was great!

For many years my family used to make the trip from Chicago southwest suburbs to visit Apple Holler at least 2-3 times a year for the shop and to enjoy a nice meal together. No more traditional trips there for us though as the changes to Apple Holler's customer service and restaurant are now highly disappointing and no longer worth the trip. I used to recommend this to so many people, but not any longer. Sorry to see such a good thing go bad.

After hearing about this place my whole life I finally decided to venture out. Unfortunately it was during Covid and all of the buildings were closed. But they had a little market outside and the menu was service for food items as well as their bakery. Peach picking was closed until the new crap is ripened. Tried the raspberry apple cider which was way too sweet for my liking and felt like I was drinking syrup. Got some cool sunglasses on their clearance rack and some fresh blueberry and strawberry jams to try. Apple pie bread looks like a good deal but other than that I might be back for the restaurant one day
