Creek & Gully Cider

CA$10.00

Flora is our place to celebrate all of our family's Certified Organic apples. While MacIntosh is always the dominant apple in this blend, Flora is built out of every apple variety we get at the cidery in a given vintage. In any given year that means Flora could contain up to 16 different apple varieties. This year it has nine different apples in it! Fresh, floral, and appley! Made with our family’s Certified Organic apples. This is a can-conditioned cider. That means, that just like everything else we make, the CO2 in this can has been produced by yeast as a by-product of fermentation. In each individual can!

What customers say?

“ This restaurant was a pleasant surprise as it had loads of great food, all packed with delicious flavor. We had the street chicken to start which was tender, crispy and the sauce was excellent. Then we had the family rice with the added pork belly, which is a MUST add on, delicious. As well as the chicken katsu sandwich, which was huge! Then we enjoyed the brule for dessert which was a fun and different flavor profile. The only downside was the price of the drink for how small it was, Plead the fifth, their take on the whiskey sour. And we went during a very busy time so food took a while, but well worth the wait. ”

“ Business lunch with a client, I picked it based on good reviews. My client said it’s one of the better restaurants in town as well. It was pretty good, service was great, decor is modern, and clean The sever recommended the chicken for appy, so we tried it, it was pretty good. My client ordered the fried rice with pork belly, so I ordered one as well, the pork belly was delicious, but the fried rice was a little too salty to our taste. Cocktail drinks were good too, overall very good experience ”

“ A flavor explosion for your mouth. My friend and I went for lunch a couple of days ago. We asked for the recommendations from our server. We enjoyed the sticky ribs and street chicken. We also had the family style bread - good for soaking up the delicious sauces. We will be back to try the other recommendations (ginger scallion crab). ”

“ Great diner, we arrive early to get the end of the happy hour. The wontons dumplings was really good and all the rest of the food was delicious. We decided to listen the personal and get only cocktails and we don’t regret! ”

- Stephane Turcotte -

“ This is a must try in penticton and now also in Kelowna. The wine list to start is quite impressive. Some really amazing local choices. The cocktails are insane! Especially the peach Bellini and margarita. The share plates have a great range of options for everyone. I will be back very soon to try even more options. The service was exceptional. Caoimhe was outstanding! She is so knowledgeable about every dish. Every recommendation was well thought out. The food was insane! Every flavour and the way the dishes were presented was excellent. ”

“ Love love love this place! Creative dishes that satisfy the senses with unique and contrasting flavours that complement each other so well. We enjoyed the scallop and prawn ceviche with its tangy coconut and lime sauce - so refreshing!!! The soy braised short rib agnolotti was rich and decadent, and it paired well with the family bread. These three dishes were perfect for two people. Can’t wait to go back to try more of their offerings! Excellent service and cozy vibes at the patio. ”

“ Exceptional service and food. We enjoyed the agnolotti (It will change your life!!), the sticky ribs and the beets and goat cheese. Finished with the Tiramiso which was absolutely delicious. Service was attentive, but we never felt rushed. Will definitely recommend here to anyone in the area. ”
