Lattin's Country Cider Mill and Farm - Cider mill in Olympia - 9402 Rich Rd SE, USA

I did like this place. Great cider and various other things. One staff member was super friendly. However, another staff member, who was asked about apples for an apple butter recipe I've made many times before, was a bit snitty about my preference of apple type. I was told her attitude was bc she's "a real baker" but that just doesn't excuse her tone and facial expressions toward me. Outside if the one person, this is a nice place to shop for apples, cider, and other stuff.

Such a great place to take the kiddos during the summer. Our favorite inexpensive pass time is buying a bag of feed at Lattins and feeding the animals (I believe it was only $1/bag). Other than feeding the animals, they have a bike area where kids are free to ride and a playground. The farm store is smaller but has everything you would think of, plus donuts and apple fritters! I do wish they had some lunch options though such as sandwiches. It would make visiting during the days a lot easier.

I called at 2:50pm, and they said they were open until 5:30pm. Got there 330, paid full price for 2 kids ($50) plus critter feed. The employees working the kids' games were unfriendly. One girl barely put down her phone to help the kids with the slingshot water balloons. We went over to the place where they keep some kids' games and animals. Never did find where the decorating cookies were....One worker told me the baby rabbits all died the night before from the heat lamp not getting turned on. Then told me how the Mama rabbit was all depressed. Some larger woman started screaming at a young family with children, to stop feeding the animals - that they'd get diarrhea and DIE if they didn't stop. (There was a small FADED sign on the opposite side of the family, so they couldn't see it.) My child won a goldfish in a game, and the workers said we could come back at closing and get it. We said okay, and went outside to see the other coops. At 4:20pm, we took the kids to go ride the wagon. Instead,they said they weren't running it any more. We turned around to try to find something else for the kids to do since we'd spent $50 and that is when my husband saw the workers locking things up! It wasn't even 4:30! We hadn't picked out pumpkins, weren't allowed to do the wagon, etc. We hurried over, and the employees unlocked the doors to allow my daughter to get her fish. The employees said their boss said to shut down the farm early! What a waste of $50!! Why didn't the ticket lady tell us we only had an hour because they were closing early?! Rude employees, an employee screaming that a young family would kill the animals with feed the farm SOLD to them, hearing about dead babies, shutting down early, etc. We've contacted them via email, FB etc to complain, and they won't respond at all. Avoid this place.

It was the first time I've been here. We went on a Wednesday, so it wasn't crazy busy. There are animals to see and you can feed them with a feed bag you can purchase in the store. The store has lots of goodies to buy as well as the all time favorite of mine, apple donuts and apple cider. They did not disappoint. Me and my adult daughter walked through the pumpkin patch and both found a really nice sized and great shaped pumpkin. We both paid $10 and some change. Not bad. If you're bringing kids, I would suggest a weekend if you can, they seem to have activities only on the weekends. That's kind of a bummer for those of us who can't go on a weekend, though. Overall it was a fun day.

One of my favorite places to visit for some cider, fritters and bags of grain to feed to the goats and sheep. Highly recommend!

My favorite place to take the kids. The bakery & store is also beautiful touch. We love feeding the animals at the farm. The staff is friendly as well.

I had a lot of fun with my kids. It wasn't exactly the most fancy place in the world but everyone truly loved working there and the doughnuts were incredible. It is worth the drive if you're into people enjoying what they do and having fun.

We were there on Monday...no fritters till end of week and weekends. We were then going to the get hot spiced cider it was not ready yet. The maple bars were $3 each...cake donuts $1. We left not purchasing anything. Drove from Montesano. They are open 9-5:30 on Monday. Very disappointing. e
