Breakfast

great breakfast spot. There is always a line but it moves fast, and it's worth it. It’s all about the Biscuit. They have a jelly and butter bar with unique blends.

expect a long wait on the weekend, but much of the veggies they serve are grown in their large garden behind. Fun to let the kids run around in while you wait.

In the opposite direction of Asheville, but located in Black Mountain, a great little mountain town that offers lots to do (hikes, playgrounds, splashpad downtown area, etc. to make a day out of it.

Lunch

amazing bbq. Try the ribs, brisket and for god's sake, do not miss the corn pudding. Right next to the Foundry Brewery. a nice little scene. Check hours because some locations closed on sat/sun. It's that good that they can do that.

West Asheville hot new restaurant. Philippine food with a fun twist. Very cool spot off the beaten path. Only seats 18 ppl so must have a reservation. You might need to dine at 9:30pm to get in, and it’s worth it, in my opinion.

Located 25 min away by the airport but I’d say its worth the drive. Super impressive facility, great food, and amazing outdoor setup to spend the day, with live music, cornhole, fire pits, and kid-friendly with room to run around the gardens + sand play area.

Things To Do

One of my favorite things to do is to walk around Downtown. There is plenty to take in there- live street performers locals called “buskers,” great restaurants, bars, and coffee shops (some of my favs listed below), & shopping. Nearly every weekend there is some kind of festival in Pack Square (google Asheville weekend events for details) and there is a drum circle on Friday nights in Pritchard Park (seasonal, so please double check).

Go there for drinks or dinner, enjoy the sunset, sit by their larger than life stone fireplace, or get a day pass to use their pool and spa facilities (the coolest part is their pool plays classical music UNDER THE WATER)

45 minutes away and a great way to spend the day. Lake surrounded by beautiful mountain views, a beach complete with water slides and kids splash pad. Awesome place to take the kids. Not to mention, the movie Dirty Dancing was filmed there. Along the way to Lake Lure is also Chimney Rock National Park and the Flowering Bridge. All cool things to see!
