Written by the company

Bristol Cider Shop has been showcasing the very best in local, independent cider since 2010. We’re on a mission to introduce people to the world of *proper* cider and we’re so proud to say we've even been named the UK’s Independent Cider Retailer of the Year, twice. *If you’re not sure what we mean by proper cider, check out our guide to Craft Cider. We work with the best, award-winning, craft cider-makers in the UK and pick their very best ciders to feature in our mixed cider cases. The cases are arranged by taste and style so you can pick the one that suits you or you can choose an introductory/ taster case for a mix of different flavours. Our cider range: Rather than trying to stock a huge range, we sell about 100 varieties. All of which have carefully handpicked, so you know that every cider you get from us is top quality. We proud to say we know all of our producers personally, and we can even go so far as to tell you where the cider was made, who made it and what it tastes like. All of our ciders are personally selected and tested by our tasting panel, so we know it’s great stuff. Comprising industry professionals plus occasionally a lucky customer, friends or family, we taste hundreds of ciders, and only the highest scoring will make the cut. Our values: Cider trends come and go, but our values remain the same as the day we started: We only sell cider made from 100% fresh-pressed juice - not from concentrate. We only sell cider made on traditional cider farms - not from factories. We only sell cider that is naturally fermented - not artificially produced.

Excellent customer service from Emily

Excellent customer service from Emily. Prompt email reply after the initial delivery had been damaged by Parcel Force and failed to arrive. Emily arranged a replacement box which arrived the next day and was perfect for my Dad's birthday present.

Terrible Servive

Ordered cider for a special birthday present for an elderly gentleman which has not turned in inspite of 3 promised deoveries.Delivery driver got lost- my house is clearly visible , one i watched ,tracking online and passed right by even though Parcelforce lied and said he stopped and couldnt get an answer, no card left and i work in study right next to front door ,third time delivery changed without my knowledge to it being left a depot for pick up miles away.The birthday has come and gone and cannot comment on cider as no idea where it is! Avoid and choose a company with a better distribution company if you want it at a certain time ! Terrible service!

We’re terribly sorry you experienced such difficulty with the delivery of your recent order with us. We’re very proud of our normally excellent, next day delivery service but on this occasion, our third party courier experienced problems which delayed the delivery. I can see you contacted us after the third delivery attempt and my colleague immediately issued a full refund by way of apology for the problems, alongside this the product was successfully delivered to you the following day.

Once again, we are terribly sorry for the inconvenience caused however we are glad after discussing the situation with you at length that we could come to an arrangement by way of apology for the trouble.

Beware, avoid this company.

I received £75 worth of gift vouchers at Christmas for cider from this company. I emailed the company 10 March 2025 to arrange collection, Emily responded saying I could collect from the company on Mondays. I have sent three emails confirming my order. I have been completely blanked by this company, I have not had a response. They do not publish a telephone number which is in my opinion suspect, Are they still trading? my advice would be avoid this outfit and buy from a reputable business.

Hi Richard,

We’re sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience with us. Unfortunately, you caught us during a brief period where our email response times where longer than we normally operate to. We sincerely apologise. We have since rectified the problem and swiftly emailed you to take this matter further, where we await your response.

Alternatively, you are welcome to shop online with us at BristolCiderShop.co.uk at any time, redeeming your gift voucher balance or making payment by other means. We look forward to having you shop with us soon.
