  Acreage is an amazing location that I was excited about before it opened and it has mostly lived up to the hype. Y wife and I bring all of our friends here. The views, cider and food are all delicious and well done; though the food is pricey and I wish they'd bring back the cornbread. It is a dreamboat for people who eat gluten free like myself.
  In general, Stem knows what they are doing, they have grown rapidly and have now purchased a restaurant in North Carolina; they have come far and they really make any cider you'd ever want to drink.
  But their choices of how Acreage operates have been perplexing. When it first opened you just walked in and ordered at the bar or counter and it was a free-flowing highly enjoyable space, but if you left your table to go look outside they would hastily clear it off even if there was uneaten food on it. July 4th there was amazing, but then last August they had this awkward wait for a table inside (but still order at the counter) or order from a limited menu at the outside window. Then this last time we went it was now a full service restaurant where they don't even use the original ordering counter anymore and hardly anyone was really hanging outside. I know that it gets really busy in there and people struggle to find somewhere to sit on the weekends, but I think the full service restaurant really kills the outdoorsy free-flowing vibe that they had going. It feels like you can't go wander around anymore and enjoy the place and you feel rushed to give up your table to someone else. I worked in a restaurant and I know customer service is super tricky, but I hope they go back to a more easy going bar vibe where you can just hangout and spend the evening there.

  Fantastic cider, food, and views. Family friendly. This would be a great place for large groups and they have a massive patio that will be great in warm weather. Enjoyed everything we tried - fries, cheese, bratwurst, ash based carrots, and cider donuts. Everything is small/tapas style so we tried many things without overeating. Highly recommend!

  Amazing. Beautiful surrounding view. Excellent service. Food amazing. I'm not big on brats but I would eat there's every time. Choc. Mousse desert so delicious. Can't speak highly enough.
