Carlson's Orchard Bakery and Restaurant - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

My son loved picking apples in the orchard for his birthday. Was hoping the restaurant would be open this year but was still alot of fun!

We just finished a bag of apples we had picked up at Carlson’s late in the season. They were absolutely delicious. I’m currently eating an apple I picked up at the grocery store (same variety). It doesn’t even taste close to the local ones! Carlson’s is the best!

This place is the bomb. Awesome food, great soup and Focaccia bread yummy. Very tasty apple turn overs. Great atmosphere. The grounds are cute along with a darling yellow lab who loves to have his ball thrown for him so he can retrieve it. Don't miss this fun place, you won't be sorry!

Nice little orchard. Good food with reasonably priced pies.

We really liked this orchard with a great restaurant and friendly staff

Family favorite for decades. Sandwiches, pies, pastries and more besides the apples themselves.

Apples are great as well as lunch

We enjoyed every minute here! The apple turnovers were what dreams are made of and the service in the restaurant was top notch. Be sure to take a hay ride through the orchard. It was so neat to see and hear about the growing/harvest process!

A must visit ! Stay for lunch and wonderful pie!

Over priced. Chicken salad had chopped apples in it.

This is a special place for us we use to try and get my mom there every fall but we layed my mom to rest yesterday so we honored her today by going there the food was awesome and our waitress was just a sweetheart thanks Lolo

We brought our dog and had the best time! She even got to take a hay ride. We made sure to try the food and highly recommend the sandwiches and of course, the apple pie 🔥🔥🔥

Had a sandwich and a bowl of chili along with pie and ice cream. It was delicious!

Great sandwich and outstanding APPLE PIE!!!!!!

Fantastic place with great owners and staff alike. The lunches are great, and the fresh or take and bake pies are delicious, not to mention the apple raisin muffins 😋. I left full after a great lunch, with 3 pies, and a bag of my new favorite apple "first kiss".

Delicious sandwiches, salads, chili, cider, and pie! Friendly service in the restaurant and the ride through the orchard.

So wonderful to have this open again!! Stopped today and picked up 6 apple turnovers, a crumb coated pie, the soup of the day (potato bacon) and a slice of pumpkin pie

Trees are full with apples. Honey Crisp are awesome!!! Nice little outing with the granddaughter.

Delicious sandwiches! Fun atmosphere! Variety of apples!

Their chicken wild ride soup will knock your socks off. They offer two different dining experiences I guess you could say, they have a small wing that has booths and is much more or a restaurant feel and then they have a larger dining hall type area that has a bigger community feel. Their ciabatta sandwiches are killer.

Love this place, best apple orchard in Minnesota. They serve lunch too, very good bakery items. Worth the drive from twin cities.

Fantastic sandwiches and apple pie!

Food was really good, pie was awesome! Cool place.

Delicious lunch! Wonderful pie. Cozy atmosphere. Connell Red apples. Excellent fall fun!

Nice place to visit. Bought honey crisp apples, and hams. Delicious! Need to go back for more apples.

Luv this place, food is always so good.

Great food, great apples to buy, good price

Love the food, apples, and the friendly service. Great place to visit.

The sandwiches are delicious. They are made with homemade focaccia bread! The cider is outstanding! It's always neat and clean, both inside and out, and Marlene is just the sweetest waitress.

Great food, products and service

Friendly faces, friends, food and great service while being treated special. Congratulations on your first day back in 2019. I think everyone walks away feeling they were treated special. Thank you!🍎🍎🍎🍎

Why complicate things; it is as easy as pie. Also, please try my go to the chicken salad sandwich and my grandma's favorite the wild rice soup.

Local restaurants would be wise to take pointers from this seasonal gem. Take the whole family and delight in an autumnal tradition! The apple cider pairs well with a club sandwich. Homemade focaccia in a rural setting?! So impressive!! Colleen and Joe have been pleasing palates for 25 years at this "salt lick" that is located on a 202 acre tract of tranquility.

A very nice we'll kept orchard with varieties other orchards do not have like Jonathan's. They are looking for a buyer and wish to retire. Great opportunity for a hard working couple.

Limited but good menu. Today is the last day they are open this season. Open again next Sept hopefully!

Very pleased, friendly and great food and pie!!

Great lunches!! Wish they were open year round!!!

Great busy place, wonderful apple pies!

Lovely place to visit. Great apples.

Delicious food and great service.

Family favorite! Great food and baked goods, excellent service and fun activities for all ages. Always a must to visit every season!

Delicious sandwiches using homemade focaccia, soups and salads. Best Apple selection!

Wonderful experience with grand girls

Great sandwiches with home baked bread and yummy apple pies!

Awesome food, service fantastic. Fun to listen to the atmosphere, everyone treated like family. Customers hugging the servers, it's a wonderful experience!

The food is delicious and a very warm and pleasant place to be

Fresh, delicious food. Great staff. The cider is very flavorful. Love the soup and sandwich meals.

The self-serve apple picking isn't the best in the state, but when you consider the bakery and cafe, Carlson is awesome. Try anything with focaccia bread. Seriously.

Friendly, good ingredients, delicious, clean, great location. Can't ask for a better value or better proprietors!

Best coffeehouse sandwich, soup & kettle chips this side of heaven. Also, pie for a dollar, sooo...
