Ironbark Ciderworks — Restaurant in Claremont

Ironbark cider is one of my favorite places.

Oh you want more details? Well, let's start with the ciders. If you think angry orchard when I say cider, PAUSE. Angry orchard has more sugar than coke. Ironbark is no sugar added, just the wonderful sweetness of the fruits they use. No sulfites, gluten, or preservatives either. Wonderful, High abv, dry ciders, nothing artificial added and let me tell you now. As healthy as drinking can get I'd say.

Beyond this it is one of the most wholesome communities, with a strong emphasis on feminist values promoting a truly safe space for LGBTQIA+ persons.

Got a dog? Dogs are welcome on leashes inside and out, with an area out back for potty (thank the neighboring pet groomer)!

Got a big party? They have the tables! Need cider for an event? They do cans of some, and growlers of all ciders on tap!

If you aren't feeling cider they have even expanded to do apple brandy, and elderberry sherry for the wine lovers out there. These are hard hitting and delicious! For the IPA lovers they now carry a seasonal hops based cider called Hoppleganger.

Finally if you love events they do regular Trivia nights, and karaoke! Or if you're a foodie they have some of the best food vendors come to ironbark (and given it's proximity Claremont craft ales. So you can always bet on at least one food vendor on location!) Come on down for 626 tacos, or Inner Pizza for some amazing food.

Again, this is my favorite alcohol, Ive never been a fan of beer, and hard liquor can be too hard for regular consumption. These ciders are the perfect middle ground. Strong like a mix drink, tasty like a mix drink, but in the same format as beer!

So what are you waiting for!...

This is the cider equivalent to a brew pub, but with a kind, beautiful and calm atmosphere. The ceiling has an awesome sound dampening material! Quiet, soothing conversations are possible! The music which was soft jazz only adds to the elegant, creative vibe. The ciders....OMG! 15 flavors some drier, some sweeter, with an amazing array of flavorings. Check out the menu! As a woman I would feel happier and safer here than any adult beverage establishment I have ever visited. I wish this place were near my home. This place deserves 10 stars. Guys, if you want to impress on a date....this is a...

I love that this is not just another brewery in the area. This place is fun and has great ciders. I love the flavors they have and that they aren’t overly sweet. I can’t usually drink ciders because of the added sugar but not here. They are great. Fun place to go for a chill night or my personal favorites are trivia nights. My only teeny tiny gripe is it can be hard to figure out what is going on which days since there isn’t a set calendar and they can post a little late on IG but that doesn’t stop me from going. I really hope they are able to stick around for a long time because I...
