Cold Hollow Cider Mill

This place was so cute!!

They have two sections that you can go to.

The first section was like a store. They had all types of goodies that were made with apple cider or that you can use for cooking. They made fresh apple cider donuts in house that were so good. Then in the back you can see them making fresh apple cider. I didn’t really know what to expect When people made apple cider but it made so much sense once I’ve seen it. I was so fascinated. They also had tastings of this cider which was SO GOOD.

The next section was a little café. They sell food and drinks. They also had a bar which you can get hard apple cider tastings. I don’t drink apple cider that is spite, but my cousin did. I have a taste, and what I can say is that the cider was strong! It had great flavor, though.

All of the employees were really kind to us when we were in the shops.

This is definitely a must stop when you were in Vermont. The Cidermill is on the same road as the Cabot Creamery store and the Ben & Jerry’s store.

They have THE BEST APPLE CIDER DONUTS and apple cider drinks were awesome too- hot OR cold!!!! Ask for HOT donuts!!!

The store has lots of items if you wanna shop. They also sell maple syrup.

Very busy place but quick service. Highly recommended!

It was many years ago that I visited this place on a class trip. Hadn't been back for 30+ years. My girlfriend and I have been back here three times in the past 2 years. It's a must-visit when we're back in Vermont seeing family. Buy some fresh-made donuts and munch while you shop. Go to the tasting tank and sample what cider is supposed to taste like. If you're lucky you'll get to see the press in action at the viewing room. See y'all again in December 😉

Loved the Cold Hollow Cider Mill. Everything Vermont all in one place. We were able to find so many things we never knew we wanted. They also have a bakery where you can get the best cider donuts with a cup of maples flavored hot chocolate which was perfect for the cold weather we were experiencing. If you are in the area, definitely stop in and take a quick browse, I guarantee you will get something.

This is a fun place to stop, be prepared for crowds and have patience. The donuts are delicious, ours were hot and fresh! Their cider is filtered and more like apple wine IMO (compared to DownEast Ciders) but still worth doing the tasting flight. Lots of local jams, jellies, and other snacks for sale as well.

I've been coming here for years with my family when this place was much smaller with fewer tour busses. I had a friend visiting with me from the Chattanooga, TN area so my parents took us on our usual fall tour which included the cider mill. I was sorry they weren't pressing, but it was a Thursday, though the place was packed. The cider this year was exceptionally good so I bought some to take back with me. Service was ok, but they were so busy they were overwhelmed. I did get my free Yelp Elite donut, plus ordered 2 dozen more
Unfortunately, they were cold. So much better when they're warm! Anyway, one dozen stayed with my parents and the other made the trip back home where a quick pop on the toaster made them warm and crispy as if they were just out of the fryer! See ya next trip Cold Hollow!

Cold Hollow is one of our favorite places to visit in Vermont! It’s usually busy (especially in the fall) but 100% a do-not-miss! They have every Vermonty / Cidery / Mapley thing you might need or want and free cider samples in the back where you can learn all about how apple cider is made! They have good Creemees (maple flavored soft-serve) and amazing Apple Cider Slushies made fresh by some of the nicest people! Don’t skip the Apple Core Luncheonette across the parking lot!

Cozy with a full range of gifts and shopping options
We visited the place from Canada on a road trip the watch fall foliage in Vermont and New Hampshire, although the store was extremely crowded the staff remained courteous and treated us patiently and with a smile. The donuts and cider drinks were fresh and tasty
If we get a chance we definitely visit again

Stopped here for breakfast and to take a look at the shop/bakery. The breakfast sandwiches (we got them on cheddar biscuits) were delicious! Ended up changing our plans so we could come back the next (and last) morning as well. The shop also has a great view of some of the baking going on, as well as a lot of cute souvenirs to remember Vermont.

We stumbled upon Cold Hallow on our way back from the Ben and Jerry’s factory and we were so happy we did! We first shopped and checked out the bakery across the way from the tasting room. We saw the old fashioned cider mill and tasted cider and perused the shop. We then walked across the parking lot and tasted hard ciders in the beautiful tasting room. The flight of ciders to taste was only $10 and they were very generous pours.

The Luncheonette. Best. Food. The service was amazing. The food was fantastic. The roast beef florentine was declicious as was the chicken pesto (being a non-meat eater, they have the option to replace the meat with roasted eggplant and I ate both with the replacement). Paired it with homegrown cider and it was the best meal we have had since we arrived. Highly, highly recommend. Oh, and make sure you check out all of the quotes on the wall.
And the store had some amazing gifts to purchase. My fav item was their apple cider donuts made right there. I got a dozen. Couldn’t help myself. Totally worth it.

Spent the day hitting all the best spots in town because we were supposed to get a ton of rain, and it ended up being such a nice day. It was about an hour away from our AirBNB to get into Stowe and I fully believe that if we drove exclusively to enjoy the $3 donut ice cream sandwich that I picked this spot for that it would've been worth the drive just for that.
Cold Hollow Cider Mill was a very unique general store feel, it had souvenirs and junk you'd expect to run I to on vaca trip, but it also had a honey section with a live and see through beehive to watch which was super cool, and of course the apple cider donuts and soft serve ice creams at the counter.
Delicious and fun with a lot of interesting junk.

I love that you can try the fresh cider in the vat. I requested and got a nice, hot apple cider donut and a pint of cider. The hot donuts are the best. Love their assortment of maple and local products to buy as gifts.

Perfect spot to stock up on your goods and grab some cider. The shop is filled with local seasonings , spices, syrups and treats. The hard cider is delicious and even lunch was great. Will be back again next year to fill the pantry with maple chipotle spice and hard cider for the long Maine winter.

This trip is well worth it. The cider and donuts are unparalleled, and the staff is exceptionally friendly. In addition, they have a tasting room where you can sample their cider fresh from the tap, and during the summer, there are outdoor games to enjoy. There are plenty of things for the whole family to explore and enjoy

OMG! This place is a gem. If finally know the difference between apple juice vs apple cider. They have a free tasting area in the back so you can actually taste real apple cider. It's way better than normal apple juice. They also make cider donuts that are delicious and it's not covered with sugar. The store has so many gift items that are very local to VT. Super friendly staff also.

Great place for fall festivities. They have amazing breakfast sandwiches, I loved the biscuit. Their donuts are good but we got cold ones so I can only imagine how amazing they are when they’re warm still. Also they got warm apple cider and lots of gifts to take home

We stopped by here while visiting the amazing countryside of Stowe! We were so amazed to find out the differences between apple cider and apple juices, and all the tour. A place that is worth a visit! ☺

We loved all there products!! The Cider donuts 🍩 are Delicious!!! We also bought there Pumpkin Butter it’s Absolutely delicious!! Along with the Maple syrup 💛🧡🤎

Great place to try vermont's finest cider donuts, warm and freshly made! Absolutely loved it. There is a store too where you can buy local products like honey, maple syrup and many more including kitchenware.

You could also go for cider tasting, which is an experience of its own. There was outdoor seating too.
