Reviews of Cheeki Cherries, PYO Orchard

PYO Cherries near Cromwell. This place seems to be the most popular and I can see why. Excellent friendly service, juicy sweet cherries to pick from, both red and white varieties. They also have ice cream and a kids playground. If you pick too much, you can also send it back home by courier

Hugh place for cherry and other fruits such as apricot, peach. Staffs are very kind. Real ice cream is so good and yummy. Highly recommended for cherry picking. Must try the ice cream.

this is my second time at cheeki cherries and it was just as fun as the first! the different types of cherries they had were all so delicious and sweet!! it is also a very beautiful and iconic photo spot :)) the whole experience was also absolutely a blast, especially when I would find trees full of cherries to pick from :) the real fruit ice cream they have is also very sweet and yum, honestly was quite saddening after finding out that I had already unknowingly eaten the whole ice cream- the staff/service is also so so wonderful and friendly~ ultimately made the whole atmosphere so warm and perfect. 🍒🤍

Enjoyed the cherry picking experience. Owner - Sharon was amazing and lovely. Definitely recommend to have some sweet and yummy cherries

Beautiful farm with a variety of cherries and a lovely experience, we felt welcomed. Martin the owner while scanning our Vaccine pass, noticed that it was my daughter’s birthday so offered her a free 🍦 of her choice. Thank you for giving us a tip on how to carry our 🍒 safely to Auckland. The only feed back from my end would be … if we knew the minimum limit on how much we could pluck as we were tight with our luggage, however the experience was great and would always love to support. Keep up the good work. 😄🍒🤗

The white cherries are yum yum yum!!! Strongly recommend to pick up some if you have time.But the black ones are not as good! Ice cream is nice as well!

Enjoyed cherry 🍒 picking with family. Very good and helpful staff. The fresh ice cream was very yummy 😋.

10/5 for sure! Awesome staff, super friendly and will gladly chat to you about their fruits and variety. Picking cherries was amazing! It was such a hot day, but it's cool in the orchard (so definitely recommend doing this on a hot day). Staff told us where the biggest cherries were due to crowds not going to the back of the orchard to pick - and believe me, they're huge! Icecream was soooo good! Never had an apricot icecream before, so definitely a win! Super relaxing just sitting in the orchard as well!

Great place to pick your gigantic cherries if you’re willing to take your time and work hard towards reaching the tree tops. >34mm or even 40mm if you’re early enough in the season

We had a great time picking cherries and stone fruit a couple weeks ago and will definitely go back. The fruit ice cream or frozen yogurt is next level good, they use fresh fruit, unlike the other 2 stores on the side of the highway and it shows. The cherry is good, so is the apricot, get one for each hand 👌😂

Well organised PYO cherries and stone fruit. They also have fruit ice cream. Yum!

This dazzling and beautiful PYO PYO Cherries close to Cromwell. The kindness in the service is amazing , juicy sweet cherries to pick from, both red and white varieties. They also have ice cream directly from the fruit is so delicious. Thank you for keep and care this beautiful place

First year that I've found white cherries to buy online. They arrived earlier than expected and were delicious. Will definitely be buying them again. Service and correspondence first class, thank you.

The hospitality and welcoming nature commenced the minute we walked in the front gates/doors and didnt stop until we had left. Martin and his team know how to look after a customer, make them feel at home and let them enjoy the experience of being at their business. A wonderful place to visit, spend some time, pick beautiful fruit and have a refreshing and mouthwatering ice cream to finish. Not much else we could have asked for, thanks for the sensational time Martin. Highly recommended for anyone to visit, from a local to an out of NZ towner as well as any overseas visitor. Make time to get there. You won't regret it.

Great outdoors fun in the sunshine, family friendly, delicious fruit ice cream and a huge bag of cherries to take home. Thanks for providing the 'pick your own' experience, and for letting us come into your orchard 🤩

The white cherry I have received just piror to Xmas this year was not as nice as the year before When I first started order cherry from this orchard. Two mouldy cherries was in the box, most of them was soft and dosen't taste as sweet as previous. The sizes of the cherry was smaller as well. Overall not what I was expecting an box of cherry send overnight directly from Orchard.

It's so much fun to pick your own cherries and there are so many different varieties of cherries to pick. We only picked about 3kg, we wish we could have pick more. Great experience, will definitely go back.

It was our first time picking cherry and it was a fun experience. I would definitely go back on our next visit.

This is our first stop here in Queenstown. We had a wonderful experience. The staff asked id its our first time. For me, yes. I was briefed and instructed. As i looked around while picking cherries. So many people enjoying their picking. Others are frustrated as they cant reach the sweet and ripe cherries as its normally in higher position. I never eat much fruits. I prefer skittles but i enjoyed tasting the cherries as i picked. Its a privilege to be here in Queenstown, New Zealand. They instructed everyone not to climb the trees and use the ladder. I saw someone got told off because of climbing the tree, and someone touching the fruits on display in plastic bags and got told off..imagine its like touching the bread in the supermarket whitout paying first. please don't do that anywhere. I also enjoyed tasting the different types of honey in their counter. Its very unique. The wild flowers honey is tasty must be from unique flowers in the otago region like lupins. I regret not taking one because i thought i will see the same honey products in our next destinations. Enjoyed the fruit ice cream after. Will visit again next time.

They are awesome!!! We went to this orchard last 2 years in Summer but this year we couldn’t. Then I ordered online 8kg, arrived after they picked, so fresh, so great!!! Thank you all for working through the hard years!!!

Lovely day out with the family! It's far more fun than buying at the supermarket, and when we stopped at the Wanaka supermarket later that same day, cherries were almost double the price. We will definitely be back to Cheeki Cherries. The real fruit icecreams were amazing and the kids loved the lawn games (corn hole, Jenga), beanbags and wee playgrounds. Highly recommend!

Cute. Owner was very friendly and so were the staff. Beautiful scenery around you and the picking of the cherries was relaxing and peaceful. Had a great time. They also have a huge 5 foot high connect four! Export grade cherries that you are allowed to pick according to the owner. Good visit, enjoyed ourselves.

Very good experience

I buy cheeki cherries every season and they never disappoint always delicious. I send to family around the country and they always arrive safe and undamaged.Highly recommended 👌

My cherries arrived in great shape. Perfect timing and are amazingly fresh. Would buy again any time. Thanks team.

It's a must visit place... Along with cherry picking, their fresh cherry icecream is yummmmmmmmmmy 😍

Awesome pick you own cherry 🍒 orchard with lovely owners.

Amazing experience. Friendly staff. Highly recommended. Loved their cherry ice cream. 45 minute drive from Queenstown.

Good big orchard and lots of cherries to pick. It was for experience @14/kg otherwise could be bought from many stalls near Cromwell at cheap prices.

Great orchard, trres absolutely laden. Friendly staff. Ice creams are delicious (from 8 year old).

Cherry 5 stars. Grumpy old lady 1 star. She is especially rude to Asian customers (superiority complex?). Perhaps she is more suitable for picking cherry, instead of interacting with customers? The younger girls are much more interested in what they are doing & a pleasure to talk to.

You just got to know where to pick the best cherries. Not only can you find them here at Cheeki Cherries, but best caretakers of an orchard who are hospitable and approachable as well. Will definitely come back for more!

I had a very great time here. Fun to pick my own cherries. Tasty and juicy cherries too!

Supreme cherries, sweet and big in size. Fantastic service, the boss and staff were very friendly and helpful. Dallas helped us to fix our car as we had problems starting our car. I would highly recommend this cherry farm to everyone.

Friendly staff, simple process. They showed us how to pick cherries properly and pointed us in the direction of some trees with low fruit for the kids. And woah, heaps of fruit and great quality. Price was $16 a kilo for red. We had a great time.

Great fun picking your own cherries. And not just any cherries, but big fat juicy delicious cherries. ❤️

Sweet cherries and lots of trees to pick for. Lots of varieties and really love the white cherries!

Loved it. Kids enjoyed it just as much. Busy day but was helped so quickly.

Absolutely fantastic time picking delicious cherries! There was sooo much to pick, we couldn't stop ourselves! Definitely a must-do when you visit the Queenstown area. Price was reasonable and service was very friendly. May go back again before we head back home!

A very good place for pick your own cherries. They have ladders for you to use. The cherries you pick must be at-least 1 Kg per adult and you buy it 16$. If you don't want to pick your own, you can buy from them pre-packed. They were priced 23$ premium and 10$ seconds. I've visited Jan 19. Picking cherry was good fun especially for my 7 years old boy.

We arrived just after Cheeki Cherries had closed for the season. But they allowed us to pick what had been left on the trees and we had a lovely hour eating more than we gathered. Our 4 year old even got a lift on the back of the quad bike. Very enjoyable time. The orchard owner is really friendly and helpful. 5 stars.

Cheekily Awesome! Had a great time picking fresh cherries at a affordable price. Martin was a great host and the staff here are super friendly. You can get honey here too!

The fruit is good and the staff friendly, but when we got there we found that there was a minimum pick of 1kg per person which was not advertised on their website. This place is fine for people who want a lot of fruit, but there might be better places for people who only want a small amount of fruit.

Amazing orchard, yummy cherries and the owner was so lovely and showed us around the whole place! Really impressed with their facility as photographers it was a fun place to take photos there too! Thanks so much Cheeki Cherries! We will be back!

Best cherries ever come back every year 😁

Best place to pick cherries in Cromwell. We pick cherries every year. This is the first year we tried Cheeki Cherries, and we will definitely be back again next year. So knowledgeable and friendly, and let us try the cherries to know which ones we wanted to pick.

Professionally run and organised, however expensive rate for PYO compared to other places

Hi...all don't miss to go and visit Cheeki Cherries...Owner is very nice and friendly. He helped me and my husband to show us around, after being closed. He also explains about the cherry growth. Thanks helps to him.....and a good news is we can order cherries online.

Met the owner and had an enlightenment on how the Cheeki Cherries came to be! 🤣 My group had a lovely time as we were toured by the owner around the orchard and were allowed to pick and eat cherries that proved how Cromwell cherries are the best not only in NZ but also, overseas. Cheers CC! 😄

The white cherry is very sweet. I love here.

We were the first ones to enter the orchard today.The owner and staff greeted us in a very friendly manner.We enjoyed picking the white cherries and definitely had a great time there.Those cherries are so sweet and juicy!!

Been here three years in a row. Probably the most expensive but the best cherries and the owners are nice.

Lovely cherries, lovely staff, highly recommended 😍

Met the owner in Cromwell and he invited us out. We had a lovely time learning about cherries, picking cherries and enjoying the fruits> Worth a visit or maybe ordering some - they're fantastic.

Owner was spontaneously responded to my queries, we had made last minute plan and it was wonderful experience. Highly recommended Cheeki Cherries

Definitely recommend. Pick with stalks on. White cherry trees on right end corner. Yummy Real fruit Ice-cream.

Quite busy and popular cherry picking place

Very lovely staff, beautiful cherries and amazing experience! If you are in the area must visit this orchard!

Best cherry-picking

(Translated) I personally experienced picking cherries. It was fun and the ice cream was so delicious. (Original) 직접 체리를 따는 체험을 하였는데 재미있었고 아이스크림이 너무 맛있었어요

(Translated) A place where you can PYO cherries, plurals, and nectarines. Even when ripe, the peaches are hard, slightly fine, and not too sweet. (Original) 체리와 복수아, 천도 복숭아를 PYO할 수 있는 곳. 복숭아는 익어도 딱딱하며 약간 잘고 당도는 그리 많지는 않은 듯.

(Translated) The farm is large and the cherry flavor is outstanding. (Original) 농장이 넓고 체리 맛이 뛰어 남.

(Translated) The attitude of the checkout service staff is very poor, and the quality of the fruit is not good this year (Original) 结账服务人员态度很差，今年果子质量也不好
