Mercier Orchard was amazing. Great whole pies, fried pies, and apples. I will continue to visit whenever I am in the area. Was really full when I went but worth the wait time and parking. Maybe because it was a weekend. Brought back to my family pies, cider, apples - the whole works.

We go to Mercier's evertime we're anywhere near the area. Absolutely the best apple cider. My son ate way too many of their fried pies, he says they're the best. Ever. They also have yummy fudge, carmel and fudge covered apples, candied nuts, kettle corn, and about anything else you could possible think of. Buy a case of the cider,... More

We went to Ellijay and after shopping in town was recommended that we head to Blue Ridge to this orchard. It was a good suggestion too. The pies were great and we took home four different kinds. The cider was good and we got a bottle of that And also the fudge. I couldn't believe that had red velvet fudge!... More

The Good: Strawberries, Blue Berries, Apples. The bad: Parking. But only in the fall. We've picked Apples, Blueberries and Strawberries here. Always an Awesome experience! I'm from WA, and the apples are better than ANY Washington Apple. I grew up on Bainbridge IS WA- the President use to get Strawberries from there. These are better!! Go here!!!

My family and I have been coming to Mercier Orchards for the past several years. We try to get there every few months and always find something new. They have done some expansion over the years and there is truly something for everyone. Most of the goodies are either grown or made right there on the premises. Their fruit is... More

This is my second time to the orchards, first time for my friends. I was so excited from the last visit I had, but very disappointed this time around. I am not sure if it was the timing during the week, but last time I raved about the fried pies to only find them old and cold. Last time, they... More

We were headed out of town and stopped here for breakfast. Really good value and some unique food options. Really wished they would have had some of their jams/jellies on the table to try (probably could have sold us on a few). Sausage gravy was good. Nice buscuits. Tasty thick bacon. Not a lot of seating and service was a... More

Mercier's is a great working orchard. The bakery fried pies are incredible, the jams, jellies and preserves are delicious and now they cell hard cider - brewed themselves! You can even buy it on Sunday! If you care to browse the entire gift shop you can easily lose an hour or so.

Mercier's started off in the late 1940's as a small barn selling and shipping apples from northern Georgia. The founder, Adel Mercier, was a real innovator and, in the past 65 years has built the business into an attraction in it's own right. Missing it if you are in the Blue Ridge area would be an absolute shame. The fruit... More
