The flavor of Asheville
While eating and drinking one’s way from table to bar to buffet around the thriving culinary hot spot that is Asheville, a common thread of shared flavor starts to distinguish itself. It can be a little hard to wrap the palate around — at once tangy and sweet, rich and uplifting, edgy and comforting.
What is the elusive secret ingredient that underpins the magic of this city’s food and beverage scene? Chefs, restaurateurs, farmers, makers and longtime local food fans can tell you: It’s not just one thing but a mixture of attributes that combine like a spice blend to give Asheville its own utterly unique character.
Asheville restaurants, coffee shops, bars and breweries are both resilient and innovative. They welcome visitors while also adoring their loyal locals. They are collaborative and community-focused, simultaneously honoring Southern Appalachian foodways while embracing global influences.
As you peruse this guide and begin experiencing the bounty the city’s food and beverage community has to offer, take a moment to see if you can discern that very singular yet complex note that is the flavor of Asheville.

GET A HEAD START AT THESE BREAKFAST AND BRUNCH SPOTS
BY KAY WESTWhether you leap from your bed at the crack of dawn ready to seize the day, do a slow and sleepy-eyed roll out or barely have time to grab a bagel or biscuit between getting the kids to school and heading to the office, Asheville has a place that will fit your morning schedule and fuel your day.
• Breakfast for dinner? At All Day Darling in North Asheville, you can get your eggs, bacon, sausage, breakfast bowls, granola, gluten-free pancakes, avocado toast or fried chicken biscuit at 7 a.m. or 7 p.m., Sunday through Saturday. Don’t miss ADD’s standout shakshuka — two poached eggs in a savory stew of kale, tomato and feta on flatbread.
• At Corner Kitchen in Biltmore Village, the brunch brigade fires up seven days a week, serving punched-up brunchy classics like boozy French toast, an omelet and Benedict du jour, bagels and house-smoked lox and a ginormous cinnamon bun, as well as lunchy fare like a burger, Reuben, and shrimp and grits.
• West Asheville is a veritable linear breakfast buffet spread from one end of Haywood Road to the other. Get your breads, biscuits, bagels, breakfast sandwiches and even a breakfast
pot pie at The West End; nearby Biscuit Head’s slogan is “Put some south in your mouth,” and its calling card is the cathead biscuit, the foundation upon which to slather butter and jam or load pimento cheese, fried green tomatoes, pork shoulder, cheesy scrambled eggs, fried bologna and/or mimosa fried chicken; locals and tourists queue up daily at Sunny Point Café, the mecca for locally sourced — sometimes straight from its expansive on-site garden — comfort dishes with a twist, like carrot hotcakes, crab cake Benny and French toast stuffed with sausage and cheese, available dawn to dusk; the new owner of old-school Tastee Diner has kept the diner classics like steak and eggs and bacon, egg and cheese on a soft bun, and added unique items like smoked pork and congee and hangover hash browns.
• Take it easy on Sunday mornings — as well as on Monday through Saturday mornings — at a table on Liberty House Café’s shaded, serene North Asheville grounds enjoying sustainably sourced, local farmer fare, specialty coffees and teas. The cast iron skillet-cooked sourdough pancake is legendary.
• Off the beaten breakfast path and totally worth seeking is Abeja’s House Cafe, which self-touts its healthy eating and Latin roots expressed through the house breakfast burrito and quesadilla, gluten-free huevos rancheros, Mexican chilaquiles and ginger, ricotta and coconut-flake pancakes topped with bananas and whipped cream. Ay caramba!
• By popular demand, downtown dinner staples Chestnut and Rhubarb recently brought back brunch service. At Chestnut, find hot beignets, a house-made pimento cheese spin on Tater Tots, smoked salmon toast, pork belly poutine and filet steak Benedict from 10 a.m.-2 p.m., Friday-Sunday. Sunday is Brunch Day at Rhubarb, home of the hearty Appalachian breakfast — sausage or Benton’s country ham, redeye gravy, pepper relish, potato-cabbage hash, two eggs and a biscuit.
• Indulge in the delights of desayuno at La Bodega by Cúrate, the casual Spanish market and café outpost of Cúrate restaurant, with sweet and savory pastries, bikini sandwiches, lazy omelets and bocadillos.
DINING FOR (FEWER) DOLLARS
BY KAY WESTThe word “cheap” sounds so chintzy. There’s nothing miserly about these local meals that can be bought practically for a song. There are many eateries in Asheville where the budget-conscious can spend their dining dollars without breaking the bank.
• Sand Hill Kitchen is not the only Asheville restaurant located in a gas station/convenience store, but it is the only one that holds the distinction of having an award-winning fried chicken sandwich and the award-winning Love Burger. Everything from chef/owner Jamie Wade’s grandma’s banana pudding to the biscuits and gravy are scratch made.
• Pizza by the slice is always an option when stretching a dollar, and PIE.ZAA’s massive slices from its gargantuan New Yorkstyle pies are pennies on the pound. The purist traditional cheese slice is just $6; pump it up with veggie or meat toppings for less than a dollar more. Fuhgeddaboudit!
• A progressive taco tour of Asheville might start bright and early at West Asheville’s Taco Billy for a Billy Holiday or Billy Joel breakfast taco, then head to Grey Eagle Taqueria, just inside The Grey Eagle music and entertainment venue for a trio of “turntable” specialty tacos like French Broad brisket or Caribbean jerk shrimp. Make a midafternoon pit stop at Taqueria Munoz on Patton Avenue to watch the cooks hand-pat corn tortillas for the flat top, then pile on surprisingly tender lengua (beef tongue); and finally, stop for a taco dinner at North Asheville’s Taco Temple, with margaritas on the side por favor
• Don’t let that spare change burn a hole in your pocket; trade it for some spicy fried chicken and classic Southern soul sides at Rocky’s Hot Chicken Shack, setting Asheville mouths on fire for years and an Xpress Best of WNC Hall of Fame member.
• Not one but two flat-top-grilled patties are stacked on a bun at Baby Bull, loaded up with American cheese, house-made bread-and-butter pickles and caramelized onions, slathered with Duke’s mayonnaise and wrapped tight to contain the greasy goodness.
• Mother Ocean Seafood Market sells seafood and shellfish by the pound to take home and cook, but while perusing the fresh catch of the day, many a shopper has been lured into adding a fried po’boy, gator Cuban, Asheville hot trout or basket of peel-and-eat shrimp to their order.
• Med heads will want to check out Baba Nahm for affordable Middle Eastern street food like slow-cooked but quick-served lamb and beef meatballs, shawarma, falafel and house-made pita. Gypsy Queen owner Suzy Phillips parlayed her food truck popularity into a charming café known for fresh, flavorful Lebanese food with multiple options for vegan and gluten-free diets.
The building contractor responsible for constructing many of downtown Asheville’s most prominent historic structures, including the Municipal Building, Police Department and Fire Department, was an African-American man named James Vester Miller. Born enslaved in Rutherford County in 1860, he became one of Asheville’s most important builders and a respected community leader.
SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF THESE
WELL-BRED BAKERY & CAFÉ
BY KAY WESTCulinary goddess and food authority Julia Child was clear: “A party without cake is just a meeting.” We’ve all had enough meetings! WWJD in times like these? She’d eat the cake, the cookies, the ice cream, the chocolate, the pie and the doughnuts. Life is short. Eat all the cake. Asheville has oodles of options for being like Julia.
• Bread is good. Pastry is good. Together, they’re the best. After several years at the Asheville City Market, partners Jonathan Price (bread baker) and Dawn Alexander (pastry maker) opened the first brick-and-mortar iteration of Crust Never Sleeps on Sardis Road in West Asheville. Price’s daily breads are displayed on the wall shelves, and Alexander’s baked goods — fruit tarts, morning buns, coffee cake, scones and supersized croissants — fill the vintage glass cases.
• There are a lot of fancy, organic, locally sourced, elevated frozen treats in Asheville — The Hop, Ultimate Ice Cream, Sunshine Sammies and Sugar and Snow Gelato all hit the sweet tooth target. But when you crave an old-school swirl of chocolate and vanilla soft serve in a cake cone — maybe dipped in chocolate or rolled in sprinkles — The Freeze of Asheville is where the cool kids go.
• Comfort cookies? You betcha. Step right up to the porch window at Moo Cookie Co. in West Asheville and get a big, fat, warm-from-the-oven cookie in rotating flavors like oatmeal cream pie, stuffed chocolate peanut butter, blueberry cheesecake, white chocolate red velvet and strawberry Pop Tart.
• Little Chango co-owner/chef Iris Rodriguez urges you to follow her South Slope restaurant’s savory arepas with her coconut-cardamon flan — baked custard — and a silky piece of tres leches cake bedazzled with rosewater, orange whip and pistachio.
• For flan in the River Arts District, visit Guajiro Cuban Comfort Food for both classic and coconut varieties in addition to savory menu items like black bean soup, yuca fries, Cuban sandwiches and pork chunks with mojo sauce.
• Well-Bred Bakery & Café — a longtime member of Xpress’ Best of WNC Hall of Fame — has built its baked goods reputation on the credo “big and fluffy.” Few items are fluffier, and none are bigger than Well-Bred’s famous mountain éclair, a giant puff pastry exploding with cream and dipped in chocolate ganache. Smaller versions are available, but why?
• Speaking of cream-filled goodies, Gemelli’s bakery case is filled daily with fresh-baked Italian bomboloni and cannoli pastries from chef/owner Anthony Cerrato’s family recipes.
• On the west side of town, follow the smoke wafting from chef Elliott Moss’ smoker stationed in the parking lot of Little Louie’s Hoagies & Pierogies for smoked meatballs, smoked brisket, smoked eggplant and smoked pork and broccoli piled onto Philly-based Amoroso’s Baking Co. rolls, plump pierogis, crispy fries and smoked wings, but don’t dare leave without a house-made cannoli (recent flavors have been thin mint and pistachio).
ASHEVILLE DINING SPOTS THAT CATER TO THE WHOLE FAMILY
BY ANDY HALLWhether you’re on vacation with the kids or your family is lucky enough to call Asheville home, there are plentiful dining options in town that appeal to palates both young and not-soyoung.
• Sprawled along the bank of the French Broad River in the River Arts District, White Duck Taco Shop provides plentiful parking, quick counter service and no-fuss indoor and outdoor seating along with its extensive and creative menu of tacos and beverages. Popular grown-up picks include the Thai peanut chicken taco and frozen lime margaritas, although kids may gravitate to the chicken or cheese quesadilla options or traditional chips and queso. White Duck also operates a smaller location near Pack Square downtown.
• Also near the French Broad River on Amboy Road, HomeGround Coffee Bar & Deli serves healthy breakfast and lunch options made with local ingredients. The restaurant’s large creek-side outdoor area offers a perfect picnic spot where kids can play and is also home to a weekly bluegrass jam.
• Housed in a 1929 downtown art deco building that was originally an S&W Cafeteria, the S&W Market is now home to a handful of locally owned food stalls — meaning it’s a one-stop shop for all appetites. Families can choose from locally sourced hot dogs at Farm Dogs, Peruvian cuisine at Mikasa Criolla, Thai streeet food from Bun Intended and chicken sandwiches from Buxton Chicken Palace. Older family members can also opt for charcuterie and wine from Gourmand or a beer from Highland Brewing Co., and everyone can grab an ice cream treat from The Hop.
• Just a block away, Woolworth Walk Soda Fountain, a renovated 1930s F.W. Woolworth luncheonette, delivers a bit of nostalgia along with its classic deli sandwiches and oldfashioned ice cream treats like malted milkshakes and banana splits. Guests can eat their meals perched on shiny red and silver bar stools, then visit the building’s art gallery to peruse and purchase paintings, jewelry, ceramics and crafts by local artisans.
• With locations in North and South Asheville, family-owned and -operated Luella’s Bar-B-Que is named for owner and pit boss Jeff Miller’s Grandma Lue. The menu features traditional Southern barbecue with house-made sauces, fresh salads and even vegan dishes as well as a kids menu with choices like wings, Brunswick stew, macaroni and hoop cheese, and barbecued local tempeh. At the Merrimon Avenue location, families can eat in the restaurant’s large outdoor dining area next door to a neighborhood park.
In 2012, Asheville was named the first Bee City USA for its efforts to support pollinators and educate the local community about the importance of honeybees in sustaining a healthy ecosystem. There are now more than 150 Bee City USA affiliate cities in 44 states.
KAVA, CBD, SMOOTHIES AND MORE
BEVERAGES AND BITES WITH A BOOST
BY ANDY HALLIf you’re looking for something to eat or drink that contains extra helpful or healthful properties, you’re in the right city. Since North Carolina lawmakers removed hemp from the state’s controlled substance list in 2022, CBD shops have popped up seemingly on every corner in Asheville. There are also businesses specializing in kava, which is extracted from the piper methysticum plant; kratom, derived from a plant in the coffee family; and even infusions with medicinal mushrooms and adaptogenic herbs. Or, for those who prefer to keep it simple, an old-fashioned fruitor veggie-filled smoothie can always do the trick as a mood or energy booster.
• Housed next to a gas station just off Interstate 26 on Haywood Road inside a shop called MariFairy, Café Canna serves beverages and food that can be optionally infused with legal, locally grown CBD, delta-8 and delta-9 as well as kava and kratom. The menu includes smoothies, slushies, milkshakes and coffee drinks plus sandwiches, quesadillas and other savories.
• Also on Haywood Road is Asheville Dispensary, a CBD shop with an elixir bar offering a variety of hemp-infused sodas, iced teas and coffees. There’s also the option to add reishi mushroom ice cubes or tincture, or nano hemp shots — concentrated doses that provide faster cannabinoid absorption. The menu also features traditional sipping cacaos and mocktails, or “MerTails,” made with healthy additions such as turmeric, local honey, stinging nettle and wild mullein.
• Since 2010, Sovereign Kava has laid claim to the title of North Carolina’s first kava bar. The dog-friendly spot just south of downtown serves traditional kava drinks made by hand as well as kava cocktails, CBD edibles and tinctures and locally made Buchi kombucha along with a calendar full of live music and spoken-word events. In West Asheville, visit Elevated Kava Lounge for traditional kava, mocktails, coffee and tea with music and other events happening most evenings.
• Downtown, Apotheca sells products such as delta-9 ice cream in pints as well as locally produced, noninfused jams, jellies and preserves. The shop also stocks legal mushroom-based gummies and even CBD products for pets.
• Also in the heart of downtown, The Pot Stirred, which claims to be “America’s first mushroom café,” offers a menu of nonalcoholic beverage options, including herbal teas, lattes infused with medicinal mushrooms, cannabis cocktails, kava spritzers, nonalcoholic wine and more.
• For traditional smoothies and juices, Pulp + Sprout Juice Bar and Vegan Cafe, just north of downtown, offers cold-pressed juices, a variety of nut milks, broths, smoothies and plantbased foods such as the mushroom banh mi and Millionaire Shortbread made from chickpea flour.
• In West Asheville, Simple Cafe & Juice Bar specializes in clean juices and smoothies such as the pineapple- and raisinstudded carrot cake and the Hemingway, made with lime and coconut milk. Simple also serves a robust menu of breakfast dishes, fresh salads and sandwiches.
Zebulon Vance — Buncombe County native and North Carolina’s controversial Civil War governor — died on April 14, 1894. For a brief six weeks, his remains lay peacefully inside Riverside Cemetery in Asheville. But by early June, a dispute among surviving family resulted in his remains being exhumed and relocated before eventually being returned to his original resting place.

• For all things pickled, head to the WNC Farmers Market where DJ’s Pickles has not only a retail shop but also a deli.

VEGETARIAN, VEGAN AND GLUTEN-FREE DINING ABOUNDS IN ASHEVILLE
BY KAY WESTThe days when requests for vegetarian dishes were met with a sigh, scowl or shrug followed by a bowl of rice and beans are long gone. Whether you’re a committed vegan or plant-diet curious, cutting back on bread and pasta or 100% gluten free, Asheville has something special for you.
• Year after year, Laughing Seed Café and Plant vegan restaurants dominate the healthy eating categories in Xpress’ Best of WNC annual awards. The former — which describes its cuisine as “international vegetarian” — has a laid-back vibe and is primarily, though not 100%, vegan. Plant — “vegan fare without borders” is its creed — has more elevated service and ambiance. Both are committed to local and regional sourcing.
• Speaking of winners, Caribbean-inspired, vegetarian-friendly Nine Mile, has won the title of Favorite Restaurant for nine consecutive years in the Xpress Best of WNC polls, is a repeat winner of Restaurant That Best Represents the Spirit of Asheville and Best Restaurant in West Asheville (one of three locations) and places in many more categories.
• Trashy Vegan built its fervent fan base through its busy food truck one Instagram post at a time. The day the owners opened their small — about 20 seats — brick-and-mortar space at the rear of a West Asheville shopping center, droves of devotees waited patiently for a table or opted to take their (100% vegan) cheeseburger, tot burger, chicken sandwich and loaded fries to go. The doughnut burger — an Impossible patty on a vegan, vanilla-glazed doughnut bun made at Black Mountain sister business Dough House — is practically a cult item.
• Indian food is well known to be vegetarian friendly. Downtown on Biltmore Avenue, two restaurants share both an address and owner. The door at 5 Biltmore Suite B belongs to Mëhfil, a full-service experience with an extensive veggieforward North Indian menu. Suite A is Dilbar, an explosion of color specializing in Indian street food, including Chineseinfluenced items, and casual counter service.
• Pizza — which can be loaded up with multiple nonmeat toppings — is another reliable vegetarian go-to. All Souls Pizza in the River Arts District is the connoisseur of toppings choosers, dedicated to seasonal produce and herbs picked fresh from its on-site garden. While awaiting your Greens, Arugula or Greek pie, munch on the addictive crispy fried chickpeas snack.
• Gluten-free diet adherents sing “Hosanna” to Posana, the elegant fine-dining restaurant with a kitchen that is entirely gluten-free. Those with celiac disease can feel secure in any selection that tempts them — including focaccia, French bread, pasta and cake — and those who have made a healthy lifestyle choice to eschew gluten don’t have to hunt for ittybitty GF symbols on the menu.
FOLLOW YOUR SENSES TO ASHEVILLE’S COFFEE AND TEA EMPORIUMS
ODD’S CAFÉ
PHOTO COURTESY OF ODD’S CAFÉ
BY MARK MURPHYThe phrase “wake up and smell the coffee” has a different meaning in Asheville. Here, it’s more “wake up and how can you not smell the coffee?” By night, the city may run on craft beer, but by day it runs on coffee — ideally organic, fair trade and locally roasted.
But Asheville loves its tea, too, and there’s an increasing number of leafy purveyors jostling for your relaxation time.
• A long-standing West Asheville coffeehouse staple is Bean Werks Coffee & Tea. Since 1996, it has served locals their favorite coffee drinks along with a diverse range of small-batch roasted coffee beans sold both whole and freshly ground. Many of the beans are organic, fair trade and Rainforest Alliance-certified.
• A little farther west on Haywood Road, Odd’s Cafe stays open late seven days a week, serving both early birds and those looking for an after-work (or post-dinner) pick-me-up. Odd’s coffee is supplied by local Asheville roaster Cooperative Coffee
• Just south of downtown, Pollen Coffee & Flower Shop is unarguably one of the most unique cafés in Asheville. A
staunch supporter of maintaining a sustainable supply chain, Pollen sells a wide variety of coffees sourced from around the world accompanied by locally baked goods. And since it’s also a full-service florist shop, stopping in for a coffee at Pollen is like walking into a magical greenhouse.
• In the River Arts District, Asheville’s first Black-owned coffee shop, Grind AVL, is using coffee as a catalyst for social change. Grind sources high-quality, organic beans from local roasteries, but it isn’t just a coffee shop — its mission is to serve as an incubator for Black businesses, offering a coworking space, networking events and more.
• Locals know where to go for tea in Asheville, and for many, that can only mean one place — Dobrá Tea. Owner Andrew Snavely recently opened a third location on Tunnel Road, complementing the existing spaces downtown and in West Asheville. Dobrá sells a heavenly range of teas responsibly sourced from across the world. Visitors to the downtown and Tunnel Road locations can also enjoy house-made vegan and gluten-free snacks, while the West Asheville spot has a more substantial food menu.
• Not to be outdone, High Climate Tea in downtown Asheville specializes in white and green teas, rooibos, puerh and more. Every year the team travels around China and Taiwan in search of the finest leaves from each harvest.
• In South Asheville, Ivory Road Café & Kitchen offers a 100% organic tea selection as well as specialties such as jasmine matcha latte and a London fog that will ensure repeat visits. Ivory Road also puts a laid-back Asheville spin on traditional English tea service with its Afternoon Tea events, hosted twice monthly and on certain holidays.
NIGHT TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME
WHO’S SERVING FOOD AFTER 11 — OR LATER?
BY EDWIN ARNAUDINWe’ve all been there: You’re out late after a movie or concert and remember you forgot to grab supper or simply crave another bite to eat before heading home. Whether you’re a seasoned night owl or completely out of your element, you’re in luck — a healthy number of Asheville restaurants keep their kitchens open until midnight or later, offering items both healthy and ... whatever you consider the opposite of “healthy.”
• Odds are good that late-night munchies will hit while you’re downtown enjoying Asheville’s numerous cultural opportunities, and conveniently situated smack dab in the middle of it all is Rankin Vault Cocktail Lounge. From burger sliders to full-sized sandwiches and plenty of tasty side options, its late-night menu is tough to beat.
• Speaking of odds, The Odd [aka The Odditorium] in West Asheville keeps rocking until 2 a.m. every night with an assortment of bar food, including vegan takes on the sloppy joe and cheesesteak. Can’t decide which of the numerous fried items to order? Get the sampler platter and try them all.
• Halfway down Haywood Road from The Odd, Standard Pizza Co. serves its full menu of whole pies, slices, salads, calzones
and breadsticks deep into the night. Load up on toppings or enjoy the beautiful simplicity of the white pizza’s mozzarella, ricotta, oregano and fresh garlic. Standard’s Biltmore Village location closes up shop a bit earlier but is still open until midnight on weekends.
• If you find yourself out in North Asheville in the wee hours of the morning, you can count on The Barrelhouse through 2 a.m. Known as the “House of Pierogies,” the bar and grill’s menu has everything from the vegan, gluten-free Buddha Bowl to The Joe Rogan, a sandwich made with elk meat.
• Serving Asheville’s east side, The Social specializes in comfort food throughout the day — and into the following day. Along with traditional pub fare, look for less expected items such as a loaded potato soup, crunchy chili cheese wrap and German chocolate decadence cake.
BEER, CIDER AND GINGER BEER OPTIONS QUENCH CONSUMERS’ THIRSTS
BY EDWIN ARNAUDINBeer City is back on top! According to a 2022 study by financial technology company SmartAsset, Asheville ranks first in the U.S. for the number of breweries per 100,000 residents, clocking in at an impressive 27.6. And the growth shows no signs of stopping: Denver-based TRVE Brewing Co. is set to join Brouwerïj Cursus Kĕmē and New Origin Brewing Co. with a taproom on Thompson Street, and by the time you pick up this guide, there’s a good chance one or two more additions will have been announced. Cheers!
• Just north of Asheville, Woodfin is suddenly the place to be for breweries. Following the successes of Zillicoah Beer Co. by the French Broad River and Riverside Rhapsody Beer Co., just 0.6 miles up Riverside Drive, Outsider Brewing Co. set up shop almost exactly in the middle of its predecessors with the Asheville area’s smallest brewing system. The trio give craft beer consumers who are uninterested in braving downtown plenty of options in a more laid-back milieu.
• Another part of town that lends itself to an easy brewery crawl is West Asheville. Starting in “East West Asheville” on the far side of Interstate 240 at Archetype Brewing, it’s a quick walk to Cellarest Beer Project for some wood-aged brews. From there, head over the interstate bridge to One World Brewing to catch a bit of live music and on to Oyster House Brewing Co. for a Moonstone Oyster Stout with a plate of seafood.
• When it comes to Asheville’s cider offerings, little has changed in recent years regarding the industry players, which suggests that a winning formula has been established. Bold Rock Hard Cider, Noble Cider and Botanist & Barrel continue to offer an impressive variety of styles mere blocks from each other in downtown Asheville, while Urban Orchard Cider Co. keeps its gluten-free beverages pouring from its South Slope and West Asheville taprooms.
• Though neighboring Henderson County’s plentiful apple orchards have given rise to Asheville’s robust cider scene, these beverages aren’t the only local gluten-free option. Ginger’s Revenge serves its selection of alcoholic ginger beers from its original tasting room within shouting distance of Zillicoah and in 2022 added its South Slope Lounge, making it neighbors with Catawba Brewing Co. and Green Man Brewery.
THERE’S MORE TO ASHEVILLE’S CRAFT BEVERAGE SCENE THAN BEER
BY EDWIN ARNAUDINBeer may rule the roost in Asheville, but the number of places where you can get a cocktail, mocktail or glass of wine dwarfs the brewery count by a significant amount. From downtown to every directional point within the city limits, these nonbrewed beverages carry such a strong presence that the powers that be might want to consider a new nickname for the municipality. Wineville? Mixologytown? Take a sip and think it over.
• One of Asheville’s newest additions, Anoche mezcal and espresso bar on Clingman Avenue offers an array of creative cocktails in an intimate bar setting. On warm nights, the exterior courtyard provides a pleasant getaway — to the point that you may think you’ve been transported to another country.
• On the Patton Avenue side of Haywood Road in West Asheville, Leo’s House of Thirst has quickly become a neighborhood staple thanks to its thoughtfully curated wine menu. The cozy spot allows Drew Wallace, founder of The Admiral and The Bull and Beggar, to add a third culinary feather to his already accomplished cap.
• In addition to an assortment of beers that stretches the gamut from experimental to traditional, DSSOLVR also makes its own wine. Creations thus far have included a Beaujolais-style natural red wine and a pair of sparkling honey piquettes — one with 100% organic North Carolina pinot gris and orange blossom honey, and the other featuring 100% organic North Carolina whole grape clusters.
• Of course, alcohol isn’t for everyone and, in keeping with Asheville’s welcoming spirit, bars have risen to the challenge of crafting inventive nonalcoholic beverages. Inspired by the increasingly popular Dry January trend, the self-guided Asheville Mocktail Trail is walkable throughout the year, guiding sober and sober-curious folks alike to Pillar Rooftop Bar, The Blackbird and The Montford Rooftop Bar.
• Also within striking range of those booze-free craft cocktails is an Asheville staple: The Buchi Bar — now located within another local mainstay, Rosetta’s Kitchen, at its new 68 N Lexington Avenue spot. Customers can sample six or more flavors of draft kombucha, including all of them in a single flight.
Asheville was originally named “Morristown” and was the county seat of Buncombe County when it was established in 1792. The name changed to Asheville in 1797 in honor of N.C. Gov. Samuel Ashe.
