YOUR TEAM, IN A SPACE THAT ALREADY WORKS.
The place behind the meeting.
A working cidery, a welcoming Taproom, and the Saint John River right in front of you.
Our story starts at Mackay Apple Orchard, part of our family since 1964 and the birthplace of Yip Cider. We launched the cidery in 2016 and opened our Taproom in 2021, and Yip Cider has since grown into the province’s best-selling local cider brand.
Today, we bring people together over locally made cider, in-house food, and a view that invites you to stay a little longer. For teams, that means a proper place to meet and plenty to enjoy once the laptops close.
THE BOARDROOM & LOUNGE
Two rooms.
One great day together.
Work through the agenda, then settle in for lunch and conversation. The adjoining Boardroom and Lounge are reserved together for your group as part of the booking.
The Boardroom
A private setting for presentations, planning sessions and team discussion. The meeting table doubles as a ping-pong table when it’s time for a break.
The Lounge
A bright, relaxed space for catered meals and conversation, with views of the production facility and Taproom main floor. Your team’s room to spread out between sessions.
FRESH FOOD. SHARED TABLES.
You handle the meeting.
We'll handle lunch.
Bring lunch into the plan with The Press, our in-house kitchen. Choose from sandwiches, shareables and more, with options for anything from a lighter bite to a full meal.
Food can be pre-arranged alongside your booking, so it’s ready when your group needs it. Ciders, local beers, and non-alcoholic drinks are also available during your visit.
Catering must be arranged in advance alongside your booking. Food service outside regular kitchen hours is available only when pre-ordered. An 18% gratuity is pre-included in the menu prices shown.

BEHIND THE SCENES
Private tour & tasting
Step away from the meeting and into our production facility for a closer look at how Yip Cider is made. Follow the process from fermentation to final pour, learn how each stage comes together, and hear the story behind our family-run cidery and how we got here.
Along the way, there’s plenty of time to ask questions, see the equipment up close, and get a better sense of what goes into each cider. Then bring the group together for a curated tasting of four ciders, comparing different styles and flavours along the way.
Minimum of 10 guests are required for corporate tours. Includes a guided production tour and four 4oz ciders per guest. Tour time is arranged with our team. Alcoholic tastings are for guests of legal drinking age.
SEPTEMBER–OCTOBER · SEASONAL
Back to our roots
Take the team down the road to Mackay Apple Orchard, part of our family since 1964 and the birthplace of Yip Cider. Spend some time among the trees, pick from the varieties in season, and head home with a bag of fresh apples from the same orchard that started it all.
Just 3km from the Taproom, it’s an easy way to add some fresh air and a change of pace to the day. Depending on the time of season, your group can explore different varieties, take in the view, and enjoy a more relaxed finish to the booking before heading home.
Available September–October. Picking dates and apple varieties vary throughout the season. Our team will confirm availability and visit details for your group.
