The woman working tonight was really friendly. The ciders were tasty. Parking in the street was pretty easy. We liked that they had a punch card and they do trivia. We would come here again.

The one person working when we arrived around 5pm was very friendly and very much on top of things. We tried a flight and it was enjoyable. The cheese and meat platter was somewhat tasty. I wasn’t fond of the ammonia after taste is the Brie. The platter could have been put on a more presentable plate than a paper plate. I am glad I gave this place try. Give them a visit.

Had an awesome time getting a little history lesson and tour of the best rated cider makers in UT by Jeff, one of the owners. They put a lot of work and love into their ciders and it shows! The mango basil slushie was the best, especially in the heat. The ruby is the OG and tastes like a classic dry cider. Bloody ruby (inspired by a bloody mary) had a bit of a spice to it from the horseradish. They have outdoor concerts on the weekends that we’ll have to come by again and check out!

I came in 15 minutes before they closed tonight. The person working made me feel very welcomed, and had a great sense of humor. They really made my night.
The sparkling wine is amazing.

I want to really like this place, as there are too few breweries/bars in this part of town, especially with dog friendly patios. I want to first share that the ciders I tried (Traditional and Cottonwood Hopped) were delicious! However, it was a truly strange experience dining and drinking at Mountain West, hence my review.

First, there is an advertisement of 50% off of food during happy hour (Tuesday through Thursday, 3 – 6pm). My party and I ordered several paninis to try. I am flabbergasted on the pricing and what we received. Charging 18 dollars for the Italian panini is absolutely unacceptable. The paninis are very small and have very little ingredients and come with just a bag of chips. Even at 9 dollars, it felt expensive. I cannot imagine paying full price for what we received. We did receive a complimentary whipped feta plate, which was really yummy, so I feel like the appetizers are worth exploring more. When we attempted to check out, we were charged full price for our food, and had to spend several minutes getting the happy hour discount applied, which was quite awkward.

Second, wine and cocktails come in plastic, disposable cups. Same for a glass of water. That is absurd in 2025 – I want my drink to be in a glass, and if there is a need for disposable, it should NOT be plastic.

Third, we were the only party there, it felt like we were almost intruding by being present? We sat outside as we had dogs, but we did not receive much service and needed to order drinks inside. That is fine, but then drinks took a while. There was also very little beer available, despite it being listed on their menus. We had two separate checks going on in our party of four, and multiple drinks were put on both checks, which I would be more understanding of if it was busy!!!! But it wasn’t.

Fourth, the internal layout of the building is really strange. That can’t be helped I am sure, but a good decoration re-do with lots of direction on going to the patio would be helpful, as you have to pass the bathrooms/staff office to go outside. Signage would do WONDERS.

Overall, I likely won’t go back, just due to how weird and overpriced it was. I bet it’s better to go during live music in the evenjngs, but, if a brewery is going to advertise happy hour, they should be prepared for a party of four at 3:30 in the afternoon.

Showed up on a random Tuesday and there was bingo! Tried a few different ciders, won a few prizes, had a wonderful time. Inside is closed for now, might open soon in time for winter. They do have heaters outside which was nice. Service was excellent. Hallah was at the bar and took good care of us. Patio is nice and spacious. Hours of operation on google are incorrect so maybe double check before heading over.

My top choice for getting wine and cider to-go on a Sunday! The cashier was personable, had a good sense of humor, and shared her personal preferences to help me find cider and wine that would work best with me!

This was one of the best bar experiences I’ve ever had. I am currently training my dog. I was impressed by the way they accepted us. They have a dog friendly patio with heaters. I messaged them to make sure it was ok to come with my dog, they said that the patio was mostly closed for the season, but they would be happy to serve us there if asked. We were graciously accepted this late afternoon. This was awesome exposure for my dog, and I was able to peacefully sit and crochet a scarf. The music was mellow, the servers and owners were so friendly and checked on us attentively. They gave awesome recommendations.
I tried the Parley’s Perry, it was sweet and crisp. The pear flavor was great. My favorite was the Sweet Alice. I love peach and the turmeric is so good with it! Both ciders were the best I’ve ever had because they were not overly sweet like most ciders. I overheard some of a tour by who I assume is the owner, and was absolutely fascinated with the couple of facts I learned. Im not usually into that kind of thing but I may contact them about a tour in the future because it looked and sounded so interesting! I was able to see where they make the ciders through the windows inside comfortable wooden booths. The inside is small but has bar and table seating. There is a great view of where the magic happens in the brewery.

I asked for Ruby and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the cotton wood and was blown away! Such a great tasting cider. I was never into ciders but I know now it’s because I hadn’t experienced art in action. I highly recommend this place as a must and a regular spot to your weekly adventures. Also they get extra points for utilizing the best of local food trucks. Also live music makes for a fantastic night.

Not a fun experience. This place needs to figure out how to run a restaurant. We had a party of 4, we were the only ones in the restaurant and nothing seemed to work well. And 18 bucks for a tiny tiny sandwich with lays chips. Probably won’t be back.
