    Steven Baird opened Cardiff to showcase "traditional" cider varieties that focus on "terroir and sustainable practices." Over 20 different ciders are available at any one time with a handful on tap. Read more

    Wow! I’ve dreamt of a place like this. Everything is from New York State. They have an outstanding selection of hard ciders. Go here if you love NY spirits, wines, beers, and hard ciders!

    The craft beer spot that Clinton Hill's been missing. Solid tap list with not just great beers, but also a variety of craft ciders. Run by the guy who runs The Owl Farm.

    Tap list rivals Hops Hill and Mekelburg's. Cider and mixed drinks list puts it ahead. Plus, the shares are a cost effective way to drink more.

    Nice rotation of local beers - bonus points for small size option. Please less children, though.
