This cidery is the first stop we ever made in Chimacum -- it is what attracted us here in the first place! We love the owners, staff and cider selections offered at Finnriver.

There is usually wood-fired pizza and crepes offered on the weekends (however, this changes seasonally so please check out the Finnriver website to see what food is available and when). Most weekends, Finnriver has live music too! This is a great place to go for all ages and any group size -- family friendly as well.
