NEEDS IMPROVEMENT! I am writing this review because we drive by this store frequently and have stopped in many times over many years and we would like to see it improve. The bakery is great but the store has 2 significant issues. First is that the store has closed prior to the 3 PM posted closing time more than once. Second is that the apples sold are not very fresh. One would think that purchasing apples from an orchard would be ideal but the apples have frequently been soft and disappointing regardless of variety. Hard to explain why the nameless commercial clients are probably getting properly stored apples while locals and others visiting the store get soft apples suitable for cooking but not eating fresh. We no longer buy apples here.
We stop in for some goodies. Not one word from the 2 employees. We said Hello. NOTHING! We purchased 1/2 gallon of cider, 2 cupcakes and 4 donuts. Check your cupcakes before you take a bite. The toppers are not Edible! Could poke your eye out if not careful!! Donuts and cupcakes both very dry. We started choking on them. Tried to wash them down with the cider. It was so sweet and bitter, we choked even more.
Added to my Favorites on Google Maps! First visit and definitely will always come back every time we are in the area. The BEST BLUEBERRY donut EVERRR!!! So soft and blueberry-y!!! 🤤😋😋😋
I drive School Bus and this trip was with Kindergartners and their Sr.Buddies. Gunnison’s gave them a tour of the orchard and in the end allowed them the opportunity to pick a bag of apples. While they were doing that I visited the gift shop. The baked goods temptation was over powering. Apple cider doughnuts and scones are my weakness. There is fresh made fudge assortment, chocolate candies by the pound or fraction thereof, cider, maple syrup, honey and many more gifts. The apples are fresh and delicious. The staff are extremely friendly. This is a must stop for anyone heading North on 9N&22
We have enjoyed coming here for years but a great big thumbs down for not having restrooms available on a SATURDAY during peak APPLE SEASON! This place is not central to ANYTHING and we found it outrageous that the staff would place the customers in such a terrible position. We witnessed many near-panicked customers asking for the restroom and leaving prematurely.
As we checked out with our bags of apples, we enquired about the situation and were told (without apology for the inconvenience) they were closed indefinitely to 'clean up a mess.' The door to the restroom was barricaded and we didn't see any staff members attending to the situation.
Very bad, Gunnison...VERY BAD
Came to pick up pie 2:55 pm. Didn't know closes at 3pm. Doors locked. Girl inside did not respond to knocks. Worker leaving said "we're closed. Tol her i was here before 3pm she kept walking.
I would rate negative 1000%. The lady is rude and doesn't know the rights of service animals. Would never purchase from them. SHE CLEARLY HAS NO COMMON SENSE!!!
We love coming here. A must stop every time we head up to NY. Some of the best fudge you will ever had and the apple cider donuts are amazing. Its got a cute little shop which has great touristy items and some local art/crafts for sale as well. Great way to spend an hour or so it you need a break!
