The Franklin Cider Mill, located in Bloomfield Township, opened in 1837 as a gristmill owned by Col. Peter Van Every. The Mill was under construction for about 3 years before being completed. This mill was the first in Oakland County where farmers would sell their wheat for cash money.

I grew up in MI and went every year, I even started my stepson on this family tradition..I absolutely love this place..!! I moved to CO 5 years ago and I STILL drive back every year to Franklin .
Spent my childhood coming here and it was my first time back. Could have bought a lot but high prices kept our focus on cider and donuts only. Lots of great speciality items but for next time.
The cider , donuts & caramel apples are wonderful. They also sell cheeses , apples , honey , popcorn , pies , etc. Basically they specialize in all things autumn!!
Weekends are ALWAYS busy, BUT totally worth it! Lines go really fast & the cider slushes are SO good!
Nice people and good donuts and apple products. Not to be confused with an orchard. Borderline novelty, like putt-putt is to golf . Cash only but they have an ATM .
This used to be a great place tobring he family and w have come evey year for over twenty years and each year the rated sre higher. This year the prices are outrageous and service as not the best.
Hot apple cider and a couple of donuts make the best memory! Get it while you can!
Love watching them press cider but 2 yrs in a row that I bought the girls they were not pressing... bummer they live n Indiana..and their prices are high!
Love that they let you bring your dog, even in the shop! They even have a station to clean up after your pup.
If you don't finish all your delicious donuts , put them in the toaster the next day and they'll come back to life.
Expensive but comfy , the doughnuts are worth it
Best cider around, but be sure to bring a full wallet. A dozen and a gallon sets you back quite a bit!
Nice setting with the river cutting through, but donuts weren't anything to write home about (and they only have one kind)
This year's Honeycrisp cider was amazing and the donuts never disappoint.
Make sure to get a spot by the stream to enjoy your cider and donuts . It's fun to feed the ducks !
Quite possibly one of the best places on the planet!
A must-visit every time I'm home for Thanksgiving.
The best donuts . Hands down.
The slight crunch of these warm wonderful delicious donuts warms my heart
One of the last places in the free world that does not take credit cards . Also, the bees are everywhere!
Great place! Cash only . Pretty expensive , but worth it overall.
Donuts are amazing. Cider is soooo good!
I love it here we come every year
Doesn't seem possible that Autumn os nearly here. They are getting ready for cider season and it was a record high apple crop in Michigan. Wah who!
Ask for cups and share a bigger size cider with donuts .
It closes nightly at 6:30pm, even on the weekends. Hurry and you CAN make it.
Parking can be a beast... Bring your patience and some good luck!
I admit that I am a weak vegan when it comes to their donuts . None better!!!
Excellent unpasteurized cider and doughnuts !
still my favorite! a wave of nostalgia every time :)
Donuts and cider is always a winner together.
Cash only (Yes. In 2105. ????) Parking is a nightmare. Only one type of donut .
Hot cider excellent!
Yummmy cider
Cider and donuts !!!
Cash only ! Just a heads up. But they do have an ATM .
You can get raw honey and bee pollen here!
Very pet friendly . Bring ur pup.
Cider slush is ????
You can skip the "see the cider press" line and go to the registers
Parking here is a nightmare. Park somewhere else and walk to the Cider Mill .
Come early or during the week! But the & donuts are bomb.
Cider and donuts go great together
Cider slushee---no better brain freeze around.
Get some donuts too.
Not too impressed .. Yates is much better
Order up some hot cider !
Try the chai tea latte, hot or cold - you can have them make it with soy or almond milk too. - Liz Parker Kuhn
The Pasta Bolognese is dreamy...everything here is tasty. The upstairs is relaxing and cozy. Great place. - Julia Opipari
