Customer Reviews

What a great way to spend your time! A shop filled with local & special treats. Pastries! Beautiful cider doughnuts! Don't even try to leave the shop without a box filled with the delicious goodies. The apple orchard is lovely. Filled with smiling & happy folks. Many different choices of apples. Hopefully you can even carry your packed bag of lovely apples. Relax & enjoy your visit...

We stop by our of the blue not knowing anything about this place the staff was so nice and helpful after picking some great apples and we went to the store that closed and the staff let us in anyways to buy some apple cider and donuts highly recommend this farm and store. And what a great view

We had such a lovely time picking apples here! The views are gorgeous. And we love the cider donuts too!

Always a great time when I visit here! The apple trees are beautiful and the apples are delicious. The view of the fall foliage is amazing for apple picking photos!

Best donuts, excellent apple cider, their apple blueberry muffins are out of this world!!

So many Apples, do little time. Dog friendly family owned pick your own. After last years frost and marginal crop the orchard had a rest. This season there is a bumper crop. Delicious Apples everywhere.

Best apples, cider and donuts on the East Coast. Beautiful views....pick your own apples....can't beat it. I've been to many orchards on the east coast...this is the one to visit if you have time.

Sadly the season hasn't let them fully stock up for this visit Lots of products, but quality and price seem to vary curiously

Nice orchards and delicious apple cider donuts!

This family-run orchard and farm stand, which features pick-your-own apples and flowers, cider and donuts, and fresh baked sweets, stands out for spectacular vistas of the Berkshire hills, friendly staff, and reasonable pricing. Don?t miss!

Best cider donuts in the world. Local gem.

Always a great experience with excellent baked goods and local vendor items. Best apple cider donuts in my opinion.

Drove a little bit out of our way while visiting the Berkshire mountains specifically for the hot cider and donuts this past weekend. The donuts were definitely good but none were offered hot. Hot Cider? All out. We along with 3 other people who came in for items all were disappointed. I don't completely understand how an Orchard runs out of hot cider? No explanation was given either. We dealt with 2 teenagers who had limited and or no knowledge of the products. We asked how long the donuts stayed for befo

I have been coming here for over 4 years. Whenever I am in the area, I come here for their cider donuts. Their store is well stocked with plenty of amazing goods as well. It is also a lovely place to pick apples in the Fall. Love this place! Definitely stop by if you are in the area.

Great place for apple picking and Yummy cider donuts

Delicious donuts. Very kind service.

I always enjoy popping into this little shop during the holidays as you can always find locally made items for gift giving. And it's not Christmas without one of their little samples of mulled apple ciders while you're browsing the shop. I did stop by this past week and noticed a lot of their Chukar Cherry items were expiring 11/2022 and each package I picked up felt like there was a coating of dust on them...maybe from last year? That would be my only negative tho. This really is a unique place!

Convenient location just off the road. Has lots of lovely produce to buy in the shop which was well stocked and everything clearly priced. Cider doughnuts were delicious as was the apple cider. Easy to park and plenty available.

Highly recommended. Trees are well maintained and loaded with a good variety of tasty fruit. We finished our trip with a cup of their warm cider and a fresh cider donut. The donut was amazing.

The cider doughnuts are a 5 but, their customer service is a negative 3. Customers are not allowed to use the bathrooms. The employee I asked walked away on the phone. So I used the bathroom that looked like it was for customers. The attractive woman at the cash register was extremely rude to me afterwards. Nowhere did it say, ?Employees Only? or ?No Public Toilet.? It was an honest mistake but she made it clear that I was a bad person. The baked goods we bought, we enjoyed on the wooden tables outside (w

Fall is here and by visit was for their apple cider doughnuts (world's best). Turns it they have them year round, but there's something about getting them then the weather starts getting cooler that makes them better!! Staff is always friendly, prices are great in comparison, there is no better orchard in the area or beyond!!

The cider was delicious as well as the cider donuts. Purchased their apple butter and upon taking home noted they added sugar which was a disappointment. The young women in the store we're not welcoming.

Only place I can get REAL peanut butter!

Best cider donuts EVER! I live minutes away from Clyde's Cider Mill in Connecticut but always stop at Bartlett's when I visit the area. Ron Bartlett and his whole staff are wonderful and the apples are wonderful.

I love their baked goods.

warm apple muffins for the win! SO GOOD! it had been a while since i'd been here, and it still has the same charm as it did when i was a kid. the staff are genuinely friendly, and it was surprisingly busy Saturday morning (but not crowded) which was nice to see. got lots of goodies, but forgot to get apple cider. guess I'll have to go back LOL ??

Loaded up on delicious, fresh produce! Rick helped me pick the perfect tomato...there are so many varieties to choose from! Got apple butter and apricot butter, quince jelly and pomegranate jelly to send to friends in California--they asked for Bartlett's by name! Friendly people inside, too, especially the woman at the pastry counter and the cashier. There was a nice mix of local regulars (staff called them by name) & tourists. Oh, and the granola is fantastic! Many thanks to all.

Their pick your own apples was great itsthe most beautiful orchard in the Berkshires! They had proper safety measures in place such as speedy curb side pick up at their store. Best Apple cider donuts and cider ever!

Hands down the best apple cider you will have. Not too sweet and not too tart. There are lots of tasty treats to be had here and friendly staff!

We stopped here on our way out of MA to pick up some baked goods (because I can't go to a state that has an orchard and not go!) We grabbed cider donuts, an apple walnut muffin, cinnamon twists, caramel apple coffee cake, and an apple strudel. I'm a little ashamed to admit that by the time we got home, most of that was already gone haha. Everything was so delicious! My favorite would have to be the apple strudel though. We'd definitely stop by again if we're in the area.

One of the few places to get fresh ground peanut butter without added sugar! Apple cider donuts are fantastic, especially when still warm!

We were here off season. We bought some farm fresh eggs (the teenager working wasn't sure if they were washed yet or not...which only matters regarding storage...so no points off for that) and the apple cider donuts. Uhhhh YUM! Tasty, light and fluffy cake donuts! We told the teen we had heard about their donuts, so we were there to buy some. She confidently responded, "I bet you have"! They have a fabulous reputation for a reason! Thank God we live half way across the country! It would be dangerous

From my experience, this place is the best place to PYO apples in the area. No bugs and a beautiful view. I recommend the Macoun apples - very sweet and juicy. The golden delicious on the west side of the farm are a beautiful half yellow half red. Cider is the best! Cider donuts were average. Beware due to COVID the store is curbside service only on weekends. You stay in your car and employees will take your order, or you can order ahead online. PYO apples is separate from the store just around the corner.

great selection of local treasures and a bakery counter that is frankly *powerful*. get you some of their cider donuts. get you more than you think you're gonna want because they're amazing.

Apple cider donuts are superb especially if you get them hot. A huge variety of apples all labeled for variety and use, snacking, cooking etc

Great selection, great price. Best apple cider donuts

Great place everything so good, This years apples in abundance plus very friendly and helpful staff

Apple cider drink was watered down in my opinion. Tasted like apple juice lol and doughnuts were soft not crispy. Disappointed. Apple variety was scarce. Mostly red apple family no green apples in sight.

Awesome time! So many different selections of apples to pick from and they are pet friendly (must be on a leash). We're going to make this an annual event at Bartlett's.

I heard the cider donuts were really good so I went to try and seriously they have the best tasting apple cider donuts. Definitely going back soon!

Classic old-school farm stand with THE WORLD'S BEST CIDER as well as baked goods and farm-fresh produce, bacon, milk, and select grocery items. Unassuming on the outside, but really in a class by itself.

Amazing old school orchard that days a great lunch sandwich. Cider, apples, fresh doughnuts, local produce, and killer roast beef (or any other meat) with Choice of bread, cheese and condiments for a GREAT price. Plus, where else can you find caffeinated yogurt?

Super pick-your-own late in the season! Wide variety, friendly and helpful staff. HUGE number of trees!! Close to Berkshires locations. We usually travel 1 hour north into VT, but this is our new favorite.

They have real good apple turnovers and they taste better than supermarket type. They're made with real apples not from a can.

Nice place to go apple picking. Was actually much cheaper than I'd expected to pick your own. The cider and cider donuts are phenomenal as well.

Great apples. Great cider. Great doughnuts. I've been going here since the 1960's. Bartlett's is still the standard by which all other orchards are judged.

Country style roadside farm store. Apple varieties grown on their farm, baked goods, apple cider, local maple syrup, etc. This is a family run business and the staff is always helpful and friendly.

best cider donuts ?? around in my opinion

Best cider donuts in the Berkshires! Always make a stop.on our way back home to the Cape! None of the "cider donuts" out here compare!

LOVE Bartlett's Orchards, love the cider awesome donuts, and love all the hand made soaps and laundry detergent! Wonderful here.

I had the best apple cider of my life and the donuts were delicious too!

Best cider donuts in our opinion. Golden Harvest makes a fine example but we have given our allegiance to the spicier version at Bartlett?s

Lots of apples variety to choose from. The place is beautiful. The cider donuts were absolutely delicious ??

I was disappointed that the posted hours on the web site don't match the hours used at their establishment. They close at 4 PM on Sunday, not 5:30 PM. Made the trip and found them closed. Also, their phone doesn't have an answering machine, which is were I would have complained about the hours rather than here if it had provided that function. I'm looking forward to make a positive review when I get to try their products.

?? ?? everywhere. We had much fun picking them

Bartletts has there own home-made jams and doughnuts and coffee n other baked goods. They are so good.

This place is heaven on earth ... great bakery, delicious cider, pick your own fruits ... what else can one ask? Oh yeah, and the people who work there are awesome!

I'm coming back this year. One of my favorite apple picking places. Stop by the glass blower guy on the way and the Lee Mass outlets. Fun road trip!!!

We went here for apple cider donuts and apple strudel every day we were in town. Over the top delicious!

Almost a little late in the season for pick your own. Excellent service at the curbside pickup was wicked friendly and helpful even wrote down what pied they had and came back out to us.

Their apples are excellent. The doughnuts are also really, really good. Try to cider too! Highly recommended.

Great place, cider is the best, no chemicals used to preserve, just ultra violet method, safe!

Yum, just yum! Don't forget to grab a dozen of the fresh delicious apple cider donuts! A place you must stop if you are in the area!

Had a great time here picking apples. The cider donuts were amazing!

My favorite donuts and cider! Can't wait for the apples!

Best apple cider donuts I?ve ever had!

Great countryside market with fresh fruit vegetables. Clean with friendly staff

The absolute BEST apples around. I have my family ship them to me when I'm not around in the fall.

They repeatedly sell old baked goods. Not fun when you get home to try it and have to throw it out.

Amazing day in the Beautiful Berkshires at Bartlett Orchard. On of my favorite places. Great way to spend the day outside with family and friends.

Been here 3 times now and each time the staff are worse than the last trip. Rude, rushing, mean women. Will not return.

Very nice country store focusing on the farm's apples. I had a sub and apple cider which was delicious.

Fresh apples, delicious cider donuts and lots of great local foods (including dog treats).

Lots of tasty baked goods and local products. In season a huge variety of apples and apples products

The best apple cider donuts anywhere!!! Love their cider ... great apples

Amazing apple cider donuts and tons of different types of apples to pick!!

An icon. The cedar donuts are a must.

I?d say it was solid.

Nice country store with local meat and produce. A little bit pricey, but very good.

I go every year love the apples the cider and the apple cider donuts five stars three thumbs up!!!!

Have a lot of fun Apple picking, a very good selection of organic products, you cannot leave without trying the apple donuts.

Some of the best apples around. Come check them out and you will not be disappointed.

Best cider, donuts, maple products around! Family business-always friendly and helpful!

Very friendly staff i like going to get my chocolate chip cookies ?? talk to my friends at bake shop counter.

Excellent service, a great pick your own experience and the best cider donuts in the area

The vibes here are off. The staff weren?t exactly rude, but they were not inviting and clearly not interested in being helpful. Underwhelming and unpleasant experience

Great apples and country store. Cider, maple syrup and baked goods.

BEAUTIFUL VIEW!!! FANTASTIC WAY TO MAKE SOME GREAT MEMORIES WITH THE LITTLE ONE'S, PLUS RUNNING AROUND WILL CERTAINLY BURN SOME ENERGY! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS ORCHARD BUT I HAVE TO SAY, I AM A BIT DISAPPOINTED IN THE WAY I WAS GREETED, WHEN I APPROACHED THE OFFICE/SHED AREA. I FELT LIKE I WAS INTERRUPTING A CONVERSATION RATHER THAN INQUIRING ABOUT INFORMATION ON THE PROCESS OF A BUSINESS. I WAS NOT THRILLED AT THE WAY I WAS TREATED. IT DID NOT SIT WELL WITH ME AND DEFINITELY BE A REASON FOR ME TO GO E
