View our current menu for beverages & snack options below. *Please note that the menu is subject to change based on availability.*
Parking
We have access to upwards of 20+ parking spaces! Our parking lot is to the left of the building – you can park anywhere on the black lot – butting up to the deck, L&S Radiator building, and behind the fence! Please keep in mind we lock the fence at the close of every night. Please be mindful to not park in front of the very last unit (garage door & entrance door) as those tenants need to be able to get to their space. There are ‘no parking’ signs for clarification.
You may also park at L&S Radiator after 5pm during the week and on the weekends during our operating hours. Vehicles left behind will be subject to towing at owner’s expense.
DO NOT PARK: Please only use the Blue Bee Cider parking lot. Vehicles will be towed at owner’s expense in the surrounding lots.
Family & Dog Friendly
We love having families join us! While we encourage a family-friendly environment, we kindly ask that children are supervised to maintain a pleasant experience for all guests.
We’re a dog-friendly venue! Well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome in our tasting room and outdoor deck. However, please be mindful that our environment can be stimulating. We prioritize the comfort and happiness of your furry companions and aim to ensure they have a positive experience. If your dog gets overwhelmed, it may be best to leave them at home. Thank you for your understanding!
