Bryant's Cider & Brewery 2114 East Main Street, Richmond, VA 23223

"Pros: Ciders tasted great! You can get all of the flavors in a $21 flight which is a great deal giving that each cider is about $7. I also ordered a grilled cheese with bacon that was delicious. Great service and spot. Cons: the fries needed some love. They were really dry. Overall, good place. Would come back for another cider."

"Love this spot and threw it on my beer tour to switch things up. Everyone in my group liked it and even got some to go. The bartender was super helpful and gave us the whole description on the ciders and beers. I got a Unicorn Fuel and yes it was sweet but not too sweet. Oh and got the free matching tote when you spend $30!"

"Absolutely great hard Cider! Small batch at that. Locally grown apples. The Unicorn Fuel is great, I highly recommend it! If you like bourbon, the Dark Unicorn Fuel is aged in bourbon barrels. Also very good, not to mention all the other small brewed batches!!"

"At first, this place looked like a gallery or an antique shop. I’m glad we decided to come in side to check it out. It had a gallery-like atmosphere with all of the paintings on the red walls. It also had some Christmas decor and some amusing plague masks. The lady behind the counter was super friendly and helpful. She explained what was in each cider and gave us helpful information. We decided to get a flight to try different ones. Two were berry flavored ones and two looked like white wine. Cider didn’t taste too sweet nor dry. It was a kind of in-between like she explained to us. We also got a spongey cake that they had that was among some other baked goods. The cake had powdered sugar on top and went well with the cider. Lovely little cidery hidden in plain sight in Richmond."

"My best friend and I went to Richmond to try out different cider places. The staff at Bryant’s was so nice and knowledgeable! We had trouble finding the place. There was no sign out front. Staff told us that they are soon getting a sign. That will be helpful. Parking was challenging. Might be simple for people that live in the city. We do not live in the city so it was very cumbersome. We ended up finding a spot on a street a few streets over. We had to drive around for about five minutes to find it. Inside of Bryant’s was very clean! I felt safe even during the COVID-19 pandemic. We were also the only people at the establishment so social distancing wasn’t an issue at all. We ordered two different flights. We wanted to get a good balance of all the ciders they had to offer. We tried a total of six ciders. Honestly, we only enjoyed 1 of the ciders. It was a strawberry barrel aged cider. It was really good. The rest of the ciders tasted very flat. When we asked the staff about why it was flat they said they use natural carbonation and not forced carbonation. Personally, I didn’t really like it. Neither did my friend. Definitely try it for yourself and see what you think. Just wasn’t my favorite."
