East Bower Cider Company

Located in the vibrant East End Market, East Bower Cider Company is Raleigh’s first cidery, adding a refreshing twist to the city’s craft beverage scene. Founded by veterans of the craft beer industry, this cozy spot emerged from their discovery of cider’s complex and diverse flavors during a chance visit to a cidery. East Bower offers a unique range of dry to semi-dry ciders made from apples sourced within a 350-mile radius, highlighting the region’s rich agricultural heritage. The taproom is pet- and kid-friendly, featuring a spacious 3,000-square-foot patio adorned with fire pits and lush greenery, making it the perfect place to enjoy favorites like the citrusy Citra Mango or the honey-infused Queen Bee. In addition to their in-house ciders, East Bower also provides a curated selection of guest beers, wines, and cider-based cocktails, creating a welcoming atmosphere for everyone. Whether you’re enjoying a flight of ciders or unwinding to live bluegrass music on Sundays, East Bower’s relaxed vibe and innovative drinks make it a must-visit gem in Raleigh.
