If you have small children they will love the farm like atmosphere. During October they have a pumpkin patch with rides and fun activities for the kids. The apple fritters are known all over town. They are absolutely wonderful, and you have to get them early. I love their wonderful frozen apple cider drink. They also have a small general store with jams, pies, fresh apples, etc. Always enjoy coming here with our grandson!
I got there late morning and waited about 45 minutes for some of the best donuts and the very best apple fritter I have ever had!! The apple fritter is large chunks of cinnamony apples barely held together by a splash of batter. Fried up hot and crispy. Absolutely delicious! I need more of those!The donuts were delicious too! I tried several samples of cider and liked the spicy one the best. I went to the apple tent and bought a large box of assorted apples. The Honey Crisp were fantastic!
I go to Lattins several times during the year. You can buy bulk produce, fresh pressed cider, or freshly made apple fritters. Frozen homemade ready to bake pies are available, jams too.They have goats, pig(s), livestock the children can feed. Check Facebook page for events. FYI: Fritters
I live not far from the mill and we go there every few months to buy our favorite jam - seedless marionberry - and to look at the farm animals. It is a nice peaceful place. Rarely are you alone, but it also is not often crowded. Most times we go there are between 5-10 others there buying something and sitting down to eat inside or outside. No matter the time of year you can find fun unique foods - flavored cider, donuts, flavored honey, specialty bread loaves, fresh fruit on and on. Worth the trip.
If nothing else, get the fresh made apple fritter. I dare you to eat just one! You can get pre baked pies here and the best apple cider. It has a small farm stand where you can get a few produce items, mainly apples but there are other little things too. They have regular donuts but the apple fritter is fantastic. There is a small animal farm too which the kids will love. It's a little drive out of the city limits but a nice little drive into the country. It's worth a try. There is something for everyone here. Did I tell you that you must try the apple fritter?! With a cup of apple cider! Mmmmm!
Lattin's was a traditional old fashioned cider mill. Huge fan of the atmosphere and food offerings. Would recommend going around Halloween!
We have a one year old so we really don't like spending a ton of money when it comes to certain activities since he isn't really mobile yet and since we have memberships to the larger animal attractions in the area. This place is perfect and makes for a great little trip. It costs nothing to walk around and view/pet the animals. Feed can be purchased in the store for .60 a bag. My son gets a kick out of the baby goats and pig. They also have lovely gardens and a store where you can purchase a huge variety of things from pies, meats, eggs, veggies, condiments (my husband loves the jalapeno mustard we purchased from there) etc. Our favorite is the apple slushies and apple cider donuts. A friend of ours goes every weekend just for an apple fritter, so I can imagine those are good as well. We've been several times and I know we'll be back again.
Lattin's cider can't be beat. I especially loved that they had half pints (regular, raspberry, strawberry, and cherry) for kids. The fresh donuts were delicious and there was a wide variety of produce and treats in the store. January is obviously their off season, so there were animals to see and feed, but a few of the attractions weren't running.
My family has actually gone two years now in the fall during the time of their fall event activities. Both times we went they had different activities and depending on the weekend you visit they may have additional vendors selling all kinds of things. There was even a food truck and one selling things like scarves, purses, and tutus.When we went they had various coin operated rides like you see outside of grocery stores, a tractor train for kids, a bouncy house, pony ride, and you could get feed for the chickens and goats. They also had other vendors there selling food and other misc items like scarves.I appreciate that they make a point to have a number of things going on to try to make it an enjoyable experience for kids. I'm looking forward to going back when it's quieter and just appreciating the work that this family puts into this place. Definitely not an all day destination but interesting enough for a few hours for families, or even a group of friends to do. Will definitely be going back again.
there is a petting area, home grown apples, fresh you bake pies, apple cider, corn maze, lots for kids to do. I used to go with the kids now I get to go with my grandchild. And there are apple fritters for me!!!
