Reviews for Reid's Winery Tasting Room and Cider House in Gettysburg, PA

We were at the tasting room and witnessed a tour come in. Apparently, lodging houses in town bring guests to recommended... establishments. While there, we witnessed the most horrible scene and, as we come to Gettysburg routinely and visit localbusinesse can honestly say we will NEVER RETURN TO REIDS again and will recommend everyone away from it from now on. The tourguide led the customers in quietly and began recommending ciders. The only thing we heard the guide say was that he preferredone cider over another--which, for anyone who's ever had a guided tasting or flight is exactly what you want thr bartender orsommelier to do--but apparently, it's not OK to voice one's opinion in Reid's Winery and Cider House. The bartender proceededto encourage a very drunk man--instead of asking my him to leave the tasting room, which is what should have been done--to goand harass the guide and the guests! An employee of this establishment encouraged a drunk patron to accost another patronbecause he preferred one cider over another! As if that wasn't bad enough, the guide returned with 2 of the guests and askedfor the manager. The bartender refused to get the manager. Finally, after the guests demanded enoughtines, the manager came outand proceeded to chastise the guide and the guests!! We were in disbelief at this point. This guide that recommended thistasting room over others and--from what we were told when we inquired--consistently brings customers each week, was told toleave and chastised for having tastebuds. The guide and guests were all sober. The drunk man was allowed to stay and keepdrinking. We highly recommend STAYING AWAY FROM a place whose employees instigate conflict and don't allow people the right todrink and enjoy, or not enjoy, freely. DO NOT GO HERE. They are better places in town that know what hospitality and customerservice is, and their drinks taste much better, since you're allowed to enjoy them freely. Read more

As many have stated, the owner may want to check in unannounced to see how his staff mistreats his patrons since he would not... have a business without many returning patrons. Though I enjoy the live music and open mics, I will not continue to supportthis establishment due to the absolutely bold rudeness and nastiness received directly at me, my husband, and friend on August6, 2022. That was the last chance. Unfortunate ... for you. There are plenty of other wineries to enjoy. I highly recommendJack's Hard Cider, Ploughman's, Hope (on the square), and several others in the local downtown area. Why on earth support abusiness that allows it's staff to literally be mean toward the patrons. In the last incident, we intended to buy dinner therenot realizing the kitchen closed at 8. We accepted that, and asked if it was possible to order from Tommy's pizza and bring ithere, and buy our drinks from Reids because we were starving, and came to support Tom May play, and enjoy dinner anddrinks. Being told no is not a problem. The first girl did so nicely and said she'd ask her overseer. The overseer was acomplete witch. My friend and I (hubby was waiting at our table outside under the tent) discussed how to feed all three of ourtummies. We discussed going to Tommy's afterwards for a late dinner after listening to Tom Mays play. So I looked up theclosing hours online using my phone. The meanest staff person literally came up behind us, eavesdropped, mistook what we weresaying, and said VERY nastily, "You can NOT bring outside food in here." We were taken aback at the time and asked each other,"What IS her real problem here?!?" Unfortunately, Tommy's closed at 10, the same time as Reids. So we setted for buying 6 lunchboxes, and two bottles of wine. Even with that financial support of Mr. Reids place, the one behind the counter was still SUPERnasty. At an attempt of light banter as she was ringing up our order, I asked where the kitchen was. Nothing. I nicely Read more

Nice place to start your tour. Outdoor seating, live music on the weekends in the summer months, and a few simple patio games. ... LGBTQIA+ friendly. Read more

Absolutely love the ciders. They are very delicious. The wine is also great, also love the stickers and cups for sale. The... flights are served a really neat way with a board and little beer cups. Absolutely worth a visit! Read more

Stopped in for a tasting. Our waitress was extremely knowledgeable, and the wines and ciders were delicious. You can eat inside,... but they also have a very nice outdoor eating area, and have live music on the weekends. Read more

Came here with my grandparents for one of my first alcohol tasting experiences having turned 21 recently. I wasn't a huge fan... of the wines very much, I liked some of the sweet ciders, but I'm definitely still getting used to the fermentedtaste/bubbliness. Even so, it was a fun experience, and the outdoor seating area was nice. Not a huge fan of it yet, but Idefinitely liked the ciders more. The apple butter naan was very fresh and good. Read more

Featuring both wine and cider, the tasting room offers flights of both at a reasonable price. Quality of the drinks were... impressive, with most of the cider being clean and crisp. There were a couple missteps notably their cider made in Jack Danielscasks. The staff was fair, with them wanting to have their own conversations instead of interacting with us, though we werethere only ones there and along questions about their products and winery. Guests don't care if the girl the night before wasso bored that she fixed the door. Read more

Enjoyed the ciders selection. We went upstairs to enjoy our wine and ciders. Less crowded and also the cheese and crackers were... good with the ale. Read more
