House-Crafted Ciders

Good Cider Takes Time

The cidery offers a family-friendly place to meet, eat, and enjoy house-made hard cider as well as craft beer and local wines. Sugar Hill Cidery is the only restaurant in our area that serves house-crafted ciders. Our renowned ciderist, Brent Dingus, creates a variety of flavor profiles, ranging from dry to sweet, spiced, and fruity. The ever-changing cider menu ensures there is always something new to taste.

Why a cidery?

We are an independent family owned and operated restaurant/cidery located in the heart of Norton’s revitalized downtown district. Our owners, Greg and Jennifer Bailey, began their adventures in the food and beverage business with the award-winning Sugar Hill Brewing Company in Saint Paul, Virginia. The brewery’s success led to a series of conversations and coincidences related to cider that sparked the Baileys’ imaginations. After much thought, months of work, and more than a little prayer, Sugar Hill Cidery was born.

The Result

Sugar Hill Cidery has the capacity to serve 120 people year-round and an additional 60 people outdoors during warmer months. Our outdoor seating area allows well-behaved dogs, too. We boast a roomy dining and kitchen space built to our specifications, room for musical events in the adjoining Farmer’s Market, and ample parking. The dining room features comfortable tables and booths, plus we have a bar area and a space for lounging adjacent to the dining room. In short, Sugar Hill Cidery is THE place to go in Southwest Virginia!
