Solebury Orchards

Apple picking at Solebury is my favorite part of the autumn. My husband and I pick about 50 pounds per autumn and then lug everything up to NYC and feast on them all winter. Grocery store apples have never been the same since we discovered Solebury.
The staff is great, and the cider and cider doughnuts are amazing.

These apples are unbelievable! Make an extra effort to stop here whenever they are open. They keep remarkably long one kept in the fridge. The people working there are super friendly and helpful. The prices are appropriate. Highly recommend it

There are few things I look forward to more than Honey crisp & cider donut season from Solebury Orchards.
The staff is always friendly, and the produce is always top-​notch.

This is an establishment that has been here for as long as I can remember. I live nearby and grew up on the apple cider. No other cider is as good.
I have had just about everything they have ever made or cultivated.
They have the best tomatoes, the best squash, the best juice…
Pick your own blueberries in the summer months is worth every penny. Their blueberries ruined me for all other blueberries, they’re so good.
Their cherries in the spring are incredible. So are the raspberries, blackberries, juicy apricots, peaches and nectarines.
But my favorite are the pears. Seckel pears specifically. Ambrosia.
If you want a laid back orchard experience full of incredibly sweet fruit, and kind people, look no further. This place is a staple in the community. Stop by, have cider ice in the summer and hot cider in the fall. Eat the crunchy honey crisp apples … Or indulge in the decadent cider donuts. I can almost guarantee you will come back for more.
I adore this place.

Solebury Orchards is a great place to pick your own apples. We have a family tradition and go every year. They oily let you pick the ripe ones so check the website to see what’s ready!!!
Don’t for get the fresh apple cider donuts:)

My friends and I took our first trip there yesterday, and we were excited about it right until we pulled up. It was obviously crowded, so parking was tricky and the parking staff attendants were no help at all. We parked in a small parking just to stop at the shop real quick and get some info on what we could do there, but the shop was crowded so no one could really help us, which is understandable. What wasn’t acceptable was the one employee who condescendingly and very rudely told us we couldn’t park our car where we did. Even after we tried to explain that we didn’t know, and that we would move the car, she called us ridiculous. So we left, and clearly have no plans to return.

My father and I have been to this orchard many times and today we decided to go cherry picking. Great cherries but one problem we ran into was there not being a lot of yellow sweet cherry trees;so, instead we bought some from the shop, which wasn’t a big thing but they do charge a little more if you buy from their shop instead of picking them on your own. Otherwise, we had a great visit and lots of cherries to last us.

My friend and I went on the last day of pick your own and I was glad to have traveled from VA to get apples. We have PYO orchards in Charlottesville, but nothing can compare to the Pink Lady apples of the north! The weather was chilly and windy but the tractor gets you out to the picking rows and back really quickly. The staff was pleasant and knowledgeable about all of the varietals currently in season. I lugged home 31 pounds of apples for the winter and couldn’t be happier. :)

I wish i could give this place a 6 star! This was my first experience with apple picking but I’ve heard enough from other places.
Very nice environment, nice selection of apples, friendly staff, and AHWSOME hot cider and donuts! The prices are very reasonable! They don’t charge you for entering the orchard which is very nice and make the apple picking experience very pure (unlike some other places that watch you like a guard and make it an apple picking in a «monitored green environment»). They give you a ride on an adorable tractor into the orchard!
At the checkout the guy was really polite.
And finally the apples are very delicious!

Fantastic time picking apples at this orchard. My family has voted it better than pumpkin picking any day, guess this is our new tradition.

A variety of apples and endless amounts for picking… reasonable per lb prices and great for kids. I loved the little shop there too which offered cider, apple donuts and various butters and jams. I purchased 7 honey crisp apples, raspberry jam, a donut and apple cider for $ 16… what a deal! I’m loving my apples

Great place to go for some apple picking! Tractor ride to the field was fun but not too long. Knowledgeable and kind staff on site. Friendly patrons. (nobody was pushing and shoving) Just an overall great experience.

Would have given 5 stars except the prices are a little high. Took the kids here to pick apples and we enjoyed it so much. Didn’t get here in time for the honeycrisps though — that’s what they’re famous for. Enjoyed hot cider and cider donuts, but there extras were expensive. The little store was cute, but filled with patrons and they didn’t manage crowds too well. Will come back next Fall though.

great place for getting locally grown fruit. pick your own is a fun activity for families or a date, especially on a nice day its nice to go right up to the tree and pick your own fruit right from the source. cider, sauces, donuts, etc. are all good, definitely pick up a few random items from the store.
I would give this a 5, but the location is a tight mess on creamery road. many cars speed down the road, often times are missing the entrance and turn around in driveways, its hard to see the road when pulling out, and entrance is not paved all the way to accommodate when there is heavy traffic. they need a way to cut back the trees to the entrance and force people to come from Mechanicsville road vs. from upper York. this will help people get right to the place and make it easy for traffic to get in and out.

Solebury Orchard is a great memory to me from my childhood. I always went there during the Summer/​Fall to get fruit and boy, once you tried their stuff, you’ll never want to eat another apple grown anywhere else, but here. Their apples are always crisp, juicy and delicious! My favorite would have to be the honeycrisp apples that you are able to pick around September or October.
The fruit there is always cheap, and great tasting! We buy their cider donuts every time we go! They also have an apple cider icee in the Summer and hot apple cider in the Fall/​Winter.
You can catch a ride on their tractor if you are going really out in the orchard to pick some apples and don’t feel like walking. It’s always a bumpy, fun ride.
They also have a garden to pick your own flowers yourself, but I would really be careful around that area. Of course bees will be buzzing around frequently in that area, but they’re so many! Watch out!
All in all, this orchard is part of my childhood and memories to come! Will be coming here frequently for a very, very long time!

We had so much fun going apple picking here! I highly recommend stopping in the shop first for hot cider and apple cider doughnuts (we ended up eating 3 each because they were so good). The shop also has a bunch of jams, butters, and already-​picked apples for sale.
They drive you out to the trees on a tractor, and you can either ride or walk back. The apples tasted great and were reasonably priced ($ 1.50 per pound). It also wasn’t super crowded — we got on a tractor right away, and there were plenty of apples on the trees. I’m looking forward to churning out a couple of pies later this week!

Solebury orchards is a local institution, not far from Rices Market in Solebury Bucks County. They have great U pick items during the summer and fall. You can pick berries, peaches and apples. I find their peaches to be good, their apples are not as good as some other orchards. Their hours are more limited than other orchards.

What a totally adorable little farm! We went here to pick our own apples, but ended up also picking our own cherry tomatoes… and we would have picked wildflowers but the bees were just too bad…
Everyone here was super friendly, and I ended up buying fresh mozzarella and bread to go with my fresh tomatoes from the great little store!
We’ll be back soon!

Stopped in with my almost 8 year old and my MIL for flower cutting ($ 6 per ½ pound — our bunch was about $ 4.00) and blackberry picking. (The berries were not quite ready that week — wait ONE more week.)
Cider donuts and NEW Cider Ice are a tasty treat.
Such a great place! (Closed Mon, Tues, Wed).
Love it.

Every now and then you come upon a place that is almost a platonic ideal of a form — such is the case with this place.
Neat and orderly — but not sterile, photogenic, but not staged, it’s a place where you can bring the kids and pick fruits of many kinds and feel like you’re posing for an advertisement for Ralph Lauren.
Each season brings with it a bounty of wonderful berries or fruits, and as you wander the grounds, it seems like the entire farm was designed to make all of the tension in your life fall away. Lovely landscaping, charming staff, neat and proper bins of fruit and flowers — all of it works together so well.
Normally, a place with these credentials would come with a hefty price tag — but not this time. You can get a huge bag of apples for about $ 28 (if you pick them yourself) and the heavenly berries are just as fair a deal.
We try to go several times a year, and it’s time well spent. I wish there was another star I could give them.
