Solebury Orchards

🫐My First Visit to This Farm This was my first time visiting this farm. I found it through Google Maps and decided to come and pick my own berries. Since it’s the season for blueberries and cherries, we got lucky and picked some fresh blueberries! 🚗We drove over an hour to get here, and it was absolutely worth the trip. 📍The place is beautiful, clean, well-managed, and the prices are very reasonable. The staff were kind and welcoming. 🛒There’s also a little shop where you can find the freshest seasonal fruits and vegetables, plus some cute gift items. Can’t wait for blackberry season. Definitely will be back!

The blueberries are bursting with sweetness today, probably due to all the recent rains. The family at Solebury Orchards really takes care of their land and crops so we can get the freshest products. We love all the items they sell in their shop, especially the apple cider donuts and apple cider ices. We’ve picked as many blueberries as we can so we can freeze them and use them throughout the year. They are fabulous. Go there today! We’ll be back for apples in August!

Beautiful, nice environment great as a family activity you can get your own fruit or buy prices are a bit high but you only buy what you harvest

Great experience in the fall time. A nice little shop that offers a variety of items such as apples, spreads, jams, ciders, pumpkins and more. They have fresh baked donuts and hot cider that you can enjoy while you take a ride on the tractor into the nearby orchards. Here you can pick your own apples and enjoy nature. Great experience super close to New Hope.

Great family operation! We drive an hour from Jersey for the great pick your own apples and blueberries every year. Their farm store donuts, cider, and jellies are also top notch.

Great farm for many activities. Best blueberry in the area! Cherry and blackberry are average.

Found the orchard on Google Maps as a option for an activity between New York City and Philadelphia -- we were looking for an outdoor activity. When we visited in August 2024, there were apples to be picked and flowers to be cut. It was such a fun experience -- for adults and kids alike. The apples we enjoyed were Pinnacle apples, a variety introduced in summer 2023 it sounds like -- and we really loved the flavors! The cutting garden had daliahs and zinnia right now, as well as filler flowers -- we were able to cut so many -- and cannot wait for them to continue to bloom. The team was super friendly, too! We will definitely visit again!

First time at Solebury with a group of friends, and will definitely go back. We picked two bags of Melrose, Fuji, and Pink Lady's after taking the cart ride to the orchards. Thankfully there were ladders placed inside the rows to reach the higher branches. Once we got our bags weighed, we also got apple butter, applesauce, cider, and a delicious, frosty concoction of slushy cider too. We had a blast, and can't wait for next year's visit.

My friends and I recently visited this orchard for an apple picking experience and we had the time of our lives!! This orchard was one of the last ones to still have apple picking available in the first week of November which we were super grateful for. Since most of the remaining apples were on the top of the trees they were thoughtful enough to provide ladders across the orchard which was support useful and made our experience fun and enjoyable. The instructions were very simple and were had the best time enjoying ourselves in the orchard. The apples were absolutely delicious and we also bought other stuff in their store. The apple cider was delicious and so were the Donuts. The donuts were not too greasy and fried perfectly unlike a lot of other places which I absolutely loved. I grabbed a bag for my friend who also loved the donuts so much!! One thing I would love to see here is maybe some sort of savory or fresh food options, like a crepe station or panini situation. I would have loved to sit outside in the picnic tables and have a sandwich. After a whole day of apple picking that is probably the only thing that will push this 5 star experience over the top. If you are looking for a fun, family friendly outdoor activity, please come here!!

Hands down solebury orchard produces the best apple cider I've ever had anywhere. The farm store is charming and offers a variety of great apple products and merch but it's the cider that keeps me coming back.

Wow. Solebury Orchards is a wonderful day where you can pick apples and even pick your own flowers. Add on they have a tractor that will bring you to the best areas on this massive orchard for you to pick a variety of at least four different kinds of apples. Last week when we went we got to choose from : Pixie Crunch, Crimson, Jonathan, and Empire apples. Once you are done picking your apples you can check out outside or inside there store and did I mention they have amazing apple slushies, apple cider donuts, and other goodies you can indulge in. FYI : You need to pick a time to reserve for apple picking for a fee of $2.50 per person which is totally fine in my book as almost everyone that was picking there apples picked one off the vine and ate it before you even check out. Also, there are many apples that fall off from the vines and go to waste, for a fee of $2.50 to tend to the Orchards I have no problem forking over this fee to reserve a time slot and make operations run smoothly. If you have never went apple picking and balk at the idea I urge you to go outside of your comfort zone and take part in this fun experience. As always people SYOY!!

I went with my family and it's a nice little orchard. It's on the smaller side so a lot of the rows had been picked over already. They have a lovely little market and my favorite thing was the cider ice! Unfortunately, it was an abnormally hot day and shade was spar e so we didn't stay long. Would love to return earlier in the season for other varieties!

Nice little shop with wonderful produce. Parking is a bit rough. Prices okay especially for the area.

It's all about the apple cider donuts! Solebury Orchards is only 15 miles from home as the crow flies, but a magical country drive to its small shop at the end of a long driveway off Creamery Road northwest of New Hope, PA. These folks are about locally grown apples and all of the variety of products that come from them. Apple sauce, apple pie filling, full peck and half peck of of fresh picked fully ripened polished beauties, caramel candy apples, dark brown apple cider, faded pastel baseball caps with logo and bags of six apple cider donuts (saving the best for last). Many costumers were there for apples for baking pies and carried out full bushel (peck) and half bushel (half peck) of their favorite varieties. We didn't see any already made pies this afternoon, but I remember buying them in years past. But, oh, those donuts. Light, soft, sugared/cinnamoned, sweet and palate-sticking delicious. We walked out with a bag full and gallon of cider; finishing them on the way home with gulps of amazing apple elixir as washdown.

Solebury orchards is our go-to place to pick your own fruit! We usually go for blueberry season and apple season. Their prices are reasonable and we always have a great time. Don't forget to get the cider slush or the cider donuts!

Solebury is hands down the nicest orchard in the area. A lot of the other orchards are either super commercial and "gimmicky." Understandably apple picking is a great family activity, but adults like to enjoy apple picking with friends and partners as well, and the over done "kiddy" aspect of some competitors really annoys this childless millennial. The best part about Solebury is that you don't have to pay an entrance fee, and there is currently no minimum for apples (fill a bag, or a box like some others). Right bu the entrance there is a line for the wagon to take you out to the orchard (or you can walk, but it's kindof far) and from there you are then dropped off and given brief instructions. Bags are provided at the beginning of one the pickable rows, and some ladders are available throughout (but other than that, there are no other tools provided to grab the higher up fruit). All of the rows are clearly marked with type of apple and whether or not that row is ripe and pickable (some of the farther back rows weren't ripe just yet, so there were signs warning not to pick). Once you're all finished, you can ride the wagon back (also good to note that the driver made sure to stress space between parties and asked if everyone was comfortable in light of the pandemic) and pay for your pickings around the back of the general store. They also have cider donuts available for purchase, pre-bagged, in half dozen increments, and they were some of the tastiest cider donuts I've ever had. Not too sugary and perfect to be enjoyed with coffee or by themselves. Overall 11/10 would pick again.

Obviously we are past the season of apple picking, but I still drive to their market almost every week to pick up a "peck" of their apples. They are always GREAT quality - crunchy and sweet. In the early fall I like Pixie Crunch and then I switch to Fuji. They carry Honeycrisp and other varieties as well. The market also has delicious cider and donuts. Make sure to check them out!

Very pretty, very organized apple-picking operation. I like that you pay by the pound, so you can but as many or as few apples as you want. There is a reservation fee to pick your own on the weekends but you don't pay anything to enter the orchard fields on Thursday or Friday. The apple cider donuts were good but alas they don't sell them fresh off the fryer belt. They're light and fluffy and have just the right touch of sweetness from the granulated sugar and cinnamon-- but there are better donuts to be had. Still at $5 per half dozen, it was an enjoyable treat with a cup of coffee.

We had a ball here picking apples and enjoying the fall. Solebury orchards was a nice experience. We had a timed ticket which helped to make the experience tolerable. The covid was not in question as they limited entrance. The apples were priced very well at 1.50 per pound. The shop has many cute local items . Delicious cider and apple cider donuts . There were three types of apples to pick jonahgold, empire, and piñata apples all were abundant and fresh. You can ride the tractor To the orchards but we opted to take the short walk. Picturesque place with lots of charm. We had a fun day. The shop items were also price affordably. We got the pepper jelly , apple butter and peach butter. We tried the cider and the donuts. All in all a great day ! Staff were great and no queues the timed tickets definitely a plus !

Such nice, friendly service! I called to see if the donuts were fresh, and the man on the phone was good humored enough to patiently wait for me to explain what I meant (they're actually really fresh!). I wanted straight out of the fryer fresh, to which he responded, well we let them cool first versus made and put into plastic that day or night before. There's a taste difference if you're familiar with apple cider donuts. And they were fresh! And straight into paper bags, so you know that they weren't meant to stay in those bag that long, like if they were in plastic. Super cute place, we saw that they had apple picking, but you need a reservation.

It's not organic, but dang their apples are tasty. They have a lot of varieties of apple that I have never heard of, but they were juicy and fresh. I can tell you the 'Crimson Crisp' variety made an awesome apple pie. It's really quite cheap and I got a large bag of apples for around 6 dollars. The pick-your-own portion of their orchard is a lot of fun. The tractor ride out is free and they have many ladders set up in the fields for easy access of the higher hanging fruits. This place is very well organized and straight forward, something which I definitely appreciate. If you're hungry they have some goodies available in the store. I had the apple cider and apple cider donuts, both of which were delicious. This place might be the best place in Bucks county to pick your own apples. I'll be sure to be back.

I was at the farm this weekend- being out in the field picking apples was fun and the quality of the apples was unbelievable! But I do have to say I was disappointed with the store. It's dead of October/Fall season...and there was Mexican club style music being played. Not my idea of a Fall atmosphere. It really took away from the whole experience, even my teenage kids made comments about it. The kids running the shop had no customer service skills- barely got a hi, never smiled, has to ask for a bag and I felt lucky that he even opened it before letting me bag the items I purchased while he just stared. Management could definitely do better. I won't be returning nor recommending.

Beautiful orchard... the tractor ride to the orchard was a blast. It is a lot of fun for small kids. The cider donuts were super fresh and the apple juice was delish..prices are great as well!

Their pie filling and cider donuts are the BEST!! The Honey crisp apples are delicious!

Though a fair drive from Philadelphia, once you get off I-95, the drive is scenic, particularly through the turning autumn foliage. Solebury Orchards is a pretty orchard: a lovely place to wander through the trees or, if you prefer, a tractor-pulled wagon makes loops out to the orchard and back again. No entrance fee and no minimum of apples picked. Check in for apple-picking bags (they're large, so you may not need one per person) and follow the signs, which show the type of apple in the row and whether it's ripe and pickable. Check out to pay for your apples and be sure to purchase apple cider and/or cider donuts, which came six to a bag. Agree with other reviewers: some of the tastiest cider donuts I've had--great texture and just the right amount of sweetness. There's also a small gift shop/store, which we didn't peruse. I imagine folks who live in the area must visit Solebury Orchards often for fruit, cider, and dessert! Note, for more variety, it's best to visit in the middle of the season. We came on the last day of the season, which meant the orchard wasn't overly crowded, which was nice, but also meant that there were only two varieties available and most of the fruit was high up in the branches requiring very tall folks and/or ladders (provided by the orchard).

Solebury Orchards is one of my favorite places to go to and escape the city. It's a great place to pick berries in the summer and apples in the fall! It's enjoyable to pick produce with family and friends! They have a little market where you can buy homemade apple cider donuts, ciders, and other homemade goods as well! We went during berry season to pick the local blueberries and peaches. We picked so many that we decided to make jam using the fresh produce! I alway leave with a smile on my face because Solebury Orchards is just an enjoyable time!

This is one of those great Bucks County locations. We went today and bought 2 quarts of blueberries. You can also pick your own if you want. When apple season comes they have the best honey-crisp apples in the area. They always have apple cider available as well. I do not eat them, but the apple cider donuts are also quite tasty. This is just a nice place to go and walk around. It is a very relaxing, bucolic atmosphere. The people who work here are super friendly and helpful too. I cannot think of one negative thing to say. The bottom line is this is one of the best orchards, and orchard markets around. If you like apples, blueberries, apple cider and other assorted fruits too, you will absolutely love it here.

Stopped by yesterday to pick some apples spur of the moment didn't know I needed a reservation now. Also didn't know that each person is charged 2.50 ea I don't get the logic in that. I have been coming here for years seems to get more expensive each year on a positive note the store is nice but the orchard is going the way of an assembly line get you in and out

Best Orchard in area!! Nice variety of apples and other goodies...highly recommend you will not be disappointed, pick your own or buy from shop

We go every year. Its a 2hr drive from NY but worth every minute. The apple cider slush is to die for. Of course I do t leave without like 3 bags of donuts and apples. So wonderful. They started doing reservations after Covid which was annoying but you gotta do what you gotta do. Love Solebury orchards!

Such a lovely orchard, and great people who work here. Lots of room and apples to choose from (depending on the time of the season since available changes accordingly). Make sure to take the hayride to the picking section! Even though it's walkable it's a good idea to go because an employee gives you the lowdown on where and what to pick! They also have a little store inside for apples and freshly made apple products. Enjoy!

The orchard was nice. The apple variety for picking are not my favorite though. If you want to take the tractor ride, you can. But you don't need to ride it to get to the apples. You can just walk across.

Solebury orchards is a wonderful place to pick your own or just to visit their shops for apples etc. There applesauce is amazing, we buy a box every time.

Busy Overpriced Was there on a Sunday ... no pumpkins Cider did taste good Staff frazzled due to volume

Went blueberry picking today and noticed a big change (negative) so inclined to drop my rating a few stars. The blueberry picking lanes were not trimmed and tidy, the grass in some of the lanes was very long, overall a stuffy experience. I had a hard time going through the lanes because of all the branches coming into the lanes. The blueberries themselves were ok, not as great as I remember them being last year. I found myself coming across shriveled ones more often, some going bad, etc. I recently went to a farm in NJ to pick and the blueberries there were huge and much easier to pick which resulted in a more enjoyable experience. The blackberry bushes were also a bit of a maze and I thought very expensive at $3.75/lb for pick your own. Sadly it looks like I'll have to look for a better farm nearby for next time.

Had an exceptional time here. I've been wanting to go apple picking for awhile and my bf and I finally had a free Saturday. It was the last weekend of the season of course so we just made it. We checked out some orchards that were closer to home but they were already closed for the season. I was so happy that this orchard was still open, we went the weekend of November 5th. We arrived around 2pm or so and we still had plenty of time to pick. It was pretty crowded but not bothersome. Pros Plenty of parking (in the back) Free wagon ride with a driver that explained how to pick and which apple varieties were available for picking Delicious cider donuts ! 6 for $5 Other delicious treats- apple butter, cider ice and apple cider Reasonable priced apples per pound Cons None - Come here !

It's not apple-picking season right now, but stop in anyway! Their cider is DELICIOUS! I am very picky with my ciders, and this is the best I've had in years! It has that super flavorful, farm-fresh taste. I also grabbed a box of their apple cider donut holes called "Lil' Devils." Devilishly delicious, these babies were delicately crisp on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside. Super fresh and with a great homemade taste. Yum! If you're looking for a gift, a few jars of their spreads (pear butter, peach butter, apple butter, preserves, etc.) plus a bag of their apple cider donuts (or lil' devils) would make a terrific present! I look forward to returning for apple, berry, and cherry picking! I'm also excited to make my own bouquet in their flower fields!

This is an adorably cute and small orchard that's a great stop w the kids if you're in the area! They have vast pick your own apple orchards with at least 4 varieties of apples most of the time. You can check out their current varieties on their website! They also have a wooden tractor for kids to play on, pumpkins to choose, and a market with apple cider, apples (if you don't feel like picking your own), and cider donuts. They have a variety of gourds as well. The employees are helpful and parking on a weekday afternoon in mid October was not a problem!

We have been coming here every fall for the last 4 years. It is a nice, well run orchard. We like the many different apple varieties. Great photo opportunities. We have never been here on a weekend. I would imagine it gets crazy, especially with kids. The Friday we went this year was even a bit too crowded. But we will always come back to stock up on our fall apple supply. They are only open Thurs-Sun.

Went apple picking here yesterday mostly because everywhere else that I was researching didn't have apple picking anymore.. I thought I waited too long and missed my chance.. I found solebury online and made an hour drive and it was amazing! It's in a super cute area and everything is organized perfectly. They have a cute shop that they sell apple donuts ., butter, chips , cider.. their donuts are way above average! It wasn't very crowded at all either so I think I will try to go again next year at the same time! Oh also their apples are very fairly priced compared to what I saw at other places.. they don't make you pay for the bags.

It's apple picking season! I went this past weekend and the Melrose, Topaz, and Piñata apples were available for picking. The apples went for $1.50 per pound and paid for either inside the market or outside. There is a wagon ride that takes you through the orchards, which is FREE! There are many rows of trees to pick from so no need to worry about the quality of apples left. There are also tall ladders placed throughout the orchards so that you can get to the very top of the trees for those SUN-KISSED apples. The staff was very organized and helpful with answering all our questions. Finished off the experience with some AMAZING apple cider and donuts!

What a great place to spend with the family ! Picking apples ( 1.50 a pound ) free parking free tractor ride to the Apple trees that are ripe Great place to explore with the family

This is a cute place for U-pick-it fruits. Right now only the blueberries are in season for picking. However, they also grow apples, pears, plums, raspberries, blueberries and they even have a wild flower garden which you can pick from. There's also a small little market inside where they sell their own jams and apple juice. I highly recommend trying their homemade apple juice it was fantastic on a summer day while in the field -- not too sweet, natural ingredients from their fields, and refreshing! You can't go wrong with that for only $2.00!

Went on the last day of picking and was still able to get a ton of apples. They were doing the pink ladies and the gold rushes when we went. There weren't too many gold rushes left but there were a ton of pink ladies. There are ladders in the fields-- you just have to find them and then be careful. Watch out for bees We also picked up dinner mulling spices (in convenient tea bags), bottled cider, and cider donuts (delicious) Looking forward to going again!

Haven't been apple picking in 10+ years and am sooo happy to have broken that streak at Solebury! I came on a Friday afternoon with two friends and found the entire place so charming. From the hand drawn signs to the down to earth packaging of all its market goods, Solebury creates an unforgettably authentic Pick-Your-Own experience! They notify guests about which apples are good for picking on the day of their visit, hand over either a small or large sized bag and send them off into the orchard. They also set aside apple trees for low and high picking, which means fun for everyone regardless of height :) Picked apples were priced at $1.50 a pound. Personal fave: apple cider donuts. OMG, you must get these donuts! At $5 for a 1/2 dozen, they are just about the fluffiest confections ever with the perfect amount of sweetness. They're amazing with tea and make fantastic gifts.

I have been coming to Solebury Orchards for awhile for their Apple Cider and their Cider Donuts. The last few years I have been enjoying the "Pick Your Own" option when it comes to Apples. It's such a fun activity for any age group. They have such a great variety of apples too. Today I tried the Blueberries. It was equally as fun as picking Apples and I didn't have to climb a ladder. I am looking forward to coming back next month for their Blackberries.

Great farm with a variety of fruit. We went two separate weekends for Pick-Your-Own Apples and ended up coming home with over 8 varieties and 50+ lbs of apples. The staff was friendly and their apples last for weeks (with proper storage). We highly recommend this orchard because it's not overrun with kids acting inappropriately. They have some things for younger kids but the focus is primarily on the fruit (as it should be). We will definitely come back to experience some of their other fruit crops.

A little far for me, but I always make the trip out for their fruit! The market is so cute and always surrounded by beautiful flowers. The peaches and blueberries are delicious - looking forward to their apples in the fall. The website has great updates on what's available - sometimes they have local zucchini and other such vegetables. I've only done the self-picking option for flowers once which was a cute experience.

Pretty good apple picking; TERRIBLE apple cider donuts. Rows of apples were fairly restricted (in order to stagger for ripeness) which meant a very crowded picking experience. Plentiful apples, though. High quality. Apple cider donuts were soggy, dense, flavorless, under-sugared. The worst possible form of an apple cider donut. Parking was well organized. Check-out was speedy.

This place was so much fun! I went here apple picking for my first time and I had a blast! I got a ton of really ripe apples too! It was a beautiful day and he staff was nice. Plus, there was even a guy helping with parking to make it SIGNIFICANTLY easier, without him things would be a mess! That shows that these people really know what they're doing! The entire area is so nice, too. They even have fields of flowers and a nice shop where they sell super fresh fruit, apple cider, and apple cider donuts too! This place is so good, and I'd definitely recommend it to a family with kids that needs a breath of fresh air and something fun to do!

This is an establishment that has been here for as long as I can remember. I live nearby and grew up on the apple cider. No other cider is as good. I have had just about everything they have ever made or cultivated. They have the best tomatoes, the best squash, the best juice... Pick your own blueberries in the summer months is worth every penny. Their blueberries ruined me for all other blueberries, they're so good. Their cherries in the spring are incredible. So are the raspberries, blackberries, juicy apricots, peaches and nectarines. But my favorite are the pears. Seckel pears specifically. Ambrosia. If you want a laid back orchard experience full of incredibly sweet fruit, and kind people, look no further. This place is a staple in the community. Stop by, have cider ice in the summer and hot cider in the fall. Eat the crunchy honey crisp apples ... Or indulge in the decadent cider donuts. I can almost guarantee you will come back for more. I adore this place.

I wish i could give this place a 6 star! This was my first experience with apple picking but I've heard enough from other places. Very nice environment, nice selection of apples, friendly staff, and AHWSOME hot cider and donuts! The prices are very reasonable! They don't charge you for entering the orchard which is very nice and make the apple picking experience very pure (unlike some other places that watch you like a guard and make it an apple picking in a "monitored green environment"). They give you a ride on an adorable tractor into the orchard! At the checkout the guy was really polite. And finally the apples are very delicious!

One of the best orchards in bucks county. Very good prices for pick your own fruit and always the best quality. We love to come here and get blueberries/blackberries in the summer and apples in the fall. It's a really nice, idyllic area, and the orchards are well organized. Super quaint, good picture spot. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Now, if only they'd add a pick-your-own peaches option, or baked goods other than apple cider donuts (which are delicious!)...

I came here with friends this season to go apple and pumpkin picking. Despite the cold and rainy weather, this farm was beautiful and just what I wanted for my new-to-apple-picking friends. As soon as we arrived, we were met my a beautiful building/barn that appeared to be rented for a party (what a great idea!) The farm is so beautiful and there are many picturesque moments all over, so get your cameras ready! We made our way into the farmers market where they sold cinnamon apple cider donuts, apple cider, apple cider slushies, farm fresh apples, and more! I was so tempted to buy so many things but we decided to go on the farm to pick our own first. We rode the hayride deeper into the the apple fields (free of charge). They had a pretty standard variety of apples but large area to cover. The only downside to this day was that it was super cold and the hayride driver only came around once in while and there really wasn't a set time... hence we had to wait in the cold to be driven back. You have the option to walk back, but we shot down that idea very quickly. Once we got back to the farmers market, I bought my cider, donuts, and bag of apples! It's much cheaper to buy the apples at the market than to pick your own (for a good deal too!). Overall, it was a great day and would definitely come back next year!

Visited Solebury Orchards yesterday because well it was gorgeous out and it is officially autumn! The apple picking was a great activity for the day, and the $1.99 a pound price was great! Sadly, not all apple trees were ripe yet so there was a limited selection. Their apple cider slushees were delicious and their workers were knowledge and kind. Only downfall is the parking- very tight and compact, the lot fills up quickly so you just circle around in the hopes to get lucky. All in all had a positive experience here.

This is our go to apple picking spot! About an hour away from us and well worth the drive. The staff love what they do, and take pride in their orchard. It's busy but still very quaint. They do not charge a fee for entrance, this is always a good thing. It defeats the purpose of going apple picking if you have to pay to get in, and now your apples are not $2 a pound. I understand that there are other places with attractions to see, but we just want apples.

I went there today after all the great reviews. I went when apples were in season only. They also had apple cider, apple cider doughnuts, apple ice, apple sauce, and of course apples, rows after row of apple trees. They had a cute little tractor you could hop on and off near some of the better apple trees. Really great landscape well maintained property. Very nice staff. Great parking and very organized. Staff everywhere that were welcoming and knowledgeable, as well willing to go out of there way to help answer your questions. Its very much worth the trip to. Kudos to the owners! I will be coming back for blueberry, and sign up for their newsletter.
