Robinson's Apple Barn — Local services in Saybrook

I disagree with so many of the bad reviews on here. They are a small business, they sell what they see works for them to turn a profit. As for the customer service, I spoke to the older gentleman and we had a conversation over dark honey. I said it wasn't buckwheat and he raised his eyebrows and said it had to have some buckwheat in it. My father always said wildflower...does it matter? He wasn't nasty, he was only providing knowledge on the topic. As for the pie..we chose your average apple pie. Delicious! Apples had a crisp tart yet sweet taste. I saw in multiple posts that it was overpriced? The honey we purchased was cheaper than purchasing at Grandpa's Cheese barn, larger in size, and amazing. The pie was 13 or 14 dollars for a standard pie..that's cheap, it's homemade people, not Sara Lee. I'm a hillbilly, so I can be very picky about homemade...I'm impressed and will be back to try a wild berry pie soon. Much love, God Bless, and Chefs...

Not sure what's going on with the establishment. We've been coming here for years for the most amazing apple cider ever and pies. The pie wasn't great and the apple cider is no longer there. Patterson's apple cider in place of and it's mediocre at best. So cross off another store to pass on by. Has this store been sold to new owners is the question I'm asking. Edit 10/28/23, As far as talking to the owners I didn't see the older gentlemen I normally converse with. The staff wasn't helpful so that's on you. You've downsized on all your products but that's my fault too,right. The whole point of reviews is to REVIEW the business. The apple cider I purchased in the past wasn't what I purchased recently. So good...

Drove 30 minutes to visit this establishment and we were quite disappointed. Came out here to try some pies and get fruits for a fruit salad. The fruit selection was terrible! Only left with a cantaloupe which was half bad when cut the next day. The biggest disappointment were the 2 crabapples working. The older man and the woman behind the counter were so unpleasant! Makes me feel bad giving them my $50 worth of business. The only plus side of this experience is that the pies were delish!! Still not worth another visit. 2 thumbs down on the customer experience! Shame on you...
