"We went for an evening of live music on the patio which was absolutely lovely! The cracklins were DELICIOUS and frankly the #1 item on the menu besides the cider of course. The mac and cheese could have been cheesier, but I thought the ribs were great, and I loved their variety of BBQ sauces. Service was somewhat slow on a not-so-busy night but otherwise friendly!"

"A decent little barbecue spot with some great barbecue sauces. We enjoyed both of our orders, a pulled pork sandwich and the smoked sausage. Extra sauce is $2, but honestly the best part about this experience is the sauce so you might as well order an extra one. It isn’t going to be life-changing barbecue, but for being paired alongside some ciders this is a solid experience"

"Right inside Stowe Cider is a restaurant named Shakedown Street. A bar atmosphere with simplistic table seating as well as bar seating. You can look right into Stowe cider and their operations, which is normally filled with patrons buying in bulk. Shakedown has a limited menu with some bbq items and appetizers. Definitely suggest the smoked and fried wings with dry rub. The large pulled pork nachos could feed an army. The tacos were very good."

"Shakedown Street's food is incredible! The cracklins are a must when you are visiting here. Our whole party enjoyed their food- ribs, pulled pork, jalapeño cornbread, potato salad, & fries all got rave reviews. Comfort food at its best!"

"We had a wonderful experience at Shakedown Barbecue and Stowe Cider. We arrived at 7 PM on a Saturday night and we’re quickly seated. The wait staff and chef were highly knowledgeable about gluten-free options and were very accommodating regarding our family's allergies. After dinner, the owner, Mark, gave us a brief tour of the cider production. The food and cider were delicious; we can't wait to return. PS. The nachos were the kind that is put together and then baked in the oven & the cheesy gooeyness that makes them the best! On top of all of this, Tim Reynolds was playing on the stage in the next room over!"
