Chapman Cider Co. in Olympia, Washington, is a place where the ordinary goes to get a makeover. Instead of the usual beer‑drinking routine you’ll find pig painting sessions that look like a farmyard art class gone delightfully wrong, and glass‑blowing demos that turn ordinary mugs into shiny trophies for the brave enough to sip their cider from them.
The real star, however, is the cider itself. A spectrum of flavors stretches from tart apple zing to mellow pear serenity, each pour a splash of colour that would make a rainbow jealous. The outdoor seating area invites you to bask in sunshine while the staff—polite, attentive, and clearly trained in the art of genuine hospitality—serve each glass with a smile that says “we know what we’re doing.”
If you ever wondered whether a cider could be both beautiful and robust, the answer lies in every frothy gulp at Chapman. It’s a celebration of craftsmanship that manages to be sophisticated without ever taking itself too seriously. (The founders, who clearly share a sense of humor, have turned a simple orchard idea into a community hub worth a visit.)
People enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, variety of ciders with both sweet and dry options, friendly staff, and events like live music and glass blowing, making it a great place to hang out and sip on cider.
