Bat Cave Old Cider Mill and Applesolutely Gift Shop

This is a wonderful little place to stop in and check out in Bat Cave. The owner is super sweet and helpful. We were able to get some cider frozen from last year’s batch and can’t wait to give it a try. They also had apple jelly which is super hard to find without cinnamon. If you’re in the area I’d definitely recommend dropping in and checking this place out. If you’re in town during the let summer months into fall (August-October) then you can get fresh apple cider to try.

Love this place! Best homemade apple cider you can get in this are, in my opinion. They do have other items, so when stopping in, make sure to browse around. Super friendly staff.

Off season visit...was able to get some frozen cider as well as some donuts and pumpkin bread...yum, yum! Cute little shop with a pretty view of the river.

My husband an I always enjoyed this place before he passed in May of 2021. We was able to bring two of our grandkids with us up there an get pumpkins apple cider yummy great place to visit

Nice senior lady running things, great deals on canned jellies and pickled veggies and tons of apple varieties. I've been coming here for many years.

Absolutely hands down the best place to visit if you're in Bat Cave NC. The previous owners I knew very well n we could always catch up on our life 😁 the sad news is the owners sold the Mill so now there is a lack of the family "feel" but..... I met the owner n during this visit after it was sold, I was relieved to see there weren't many changes n the apple cider that they're famous for was still just as good as it use to be. So we shall see. 😜

Great little tucked away place! They have a ton of batman things (of course) and a bunch of locally handmade things as well! You can find something for everyone, even pets! The staff are very friendly,though the place is quite small and at times can get a little crowded.

This is our Favorite place to visit when we visit Bat Cave, N.C., we can’t wait to return for some more Fresh apple cider.

Owners are very friendly and accommodating. We were leaving town at the end of our vacation and wanted to make this our last shopping stop. The store wasn't even open yet but they let us browse through (even while turning a couple others away!). Really diverse and eclectic merchandise, ranging from new commercially manufactured items we didn't see anywhere else, to handmade and antique items. Great shop.

Great Old fashion cider mill and gift shop,local art and food stuff and wonderful un pasteurized apple cider!

Although i was upset with Batcave being closed fot public and i didnot knew that, however this place is perfect. The lady at the front desk explained me the history of bat cave and why it is being closed. She was super nice and the stuff they have in the store is way more unique than i thought. Definitely will try to come back and buy more stuff, if ever visit Asheville again.

PNUT man is awesome. Great gifts.

Went here 3 years ago, been thinking about going back ever since!!!!! Unique stuff, EVERYWHERE you look. And cider Mill too!!! Its a twist n turn trip here, you go past Chimney Rock and Lake Lure. Scary road, but worth every second. GREAT day!!!! Dogs loved it too.. what's wrong with mountain air??? Hmmm.

this was adorable. the folks working here were so friendly and pleasant to deal with. jam and other selections were great. apple cider was the absolute best. if you are in the area. give them a try.

Quirky, eclectic and fun describes this shop to a 'T'. Whether you are popping in to get some coveted Bat Cave souvenirs, some local honey, cider, or hand made local crafts, you are going to be glad you stopped! Just the atmosphere of the shop is fun, the shopkeeper is a gem, and she really does have something for everyone. We will make a stop here a regular part of our trips to the area.

I have to stop here every time I visit the chimney rock area! I love this place, and the nice lady, Joanne(the owner I think), she is very talented and just really an all around pleasant person to speak with. Awesome little country boutique/store!

Wonderful place in my favorite part of the state. And the cider is incredible...wish they had an online store though. Love from Durham

The best freshly made cider from all around. Fresh apples are widely available in the area and are used beautifully by them. We also had a wonderful conversation with a rather new employee at the helmof the cider press. She was new to the area and very enthusiastic about everything in the area. If you are in the area, stop by for some refreshment and a chat.

They have the best fresh pressed apple cider around.
Free samples to try. Small parking lot though. Fair selection of apples.

Loved everything about this place! The staff was incredibly kind and helpful! Such an adorable atmosphere and such great souvenirs! This is one of my favorite stops on my cross country road trip!
