    All white meat, fried chicken, with 3 sides (Saturday special!
    Jewel L.

    Love their fried chicken. I had it once my first time there, at the end of October. I spent two months in Greenville looking for good fried chicken and all I could say is the whistle stop Café in travelers rest was very good, and gray moon, and Greenville, but I like five points the best! Made to order so you have to wait about 20 minutes, but totally worth it. On Saturday you get three sides! Happy to be back in Asheville!

    Not surprised to learn upon arrival that this place was absolutely packed. But it's a diner and as such, it has a counter and in my good fortune, there was a space for me. A server with a big smile took my order and before you know it, I had coffee and orange juice. I ordered the eggs benedict and the home fries and crispy bacon. It was a perfect eggs, benedict with just the right amount of lemony Hollandaise sauce. My coffee never stopped below half full. I'm a big guy and there are two other big guys to my left and my right so I have to say it was a little bit tight. But I still had plenty of room to eat. Very fair pricing there. I will definitely be going back.

    Home cooked diner alert. 5 points has all the nostalgia of sitting at the local diner in your hometown. All the classics and then some. For lunch, several fried seafood options. This trip was breakfast, and it was perfect on a cold morning. Crab cake Benedict was on point. Hash and eggs , yummy!!

    If you're tired of waiting in line for breakfast behind throngs of out-of-towners elbowing their way into the sometimes overhyped "latest and greatest," check this place out. It doesn't get any more local, any more authentic than 5 Points, where they've been welcoming 828ers since 1972. Grab a window booth or enjoy the artistry of the chefs from a front-row seat at the bar. No molecular gastronomy here, no 24K gold dust sprinkles. Just hearty, unpretentious, reasonably-priced eats that'll fill your belly and put a smile on your face.

    Great diner food. Service was not as prompt as we observed those around us order taken sooner at the bar as we were seated and waiting. they were busy but we did feel like we were forgotten as we had to let someone know we were ready to order. Besides that once order was placed food came out fast and was very good. Waffle 5/5 so buttery! Homefries looked so good I had to try them 4/5 well seasoned just wish they were a bit more well done. Pancakes 3.8/5 I prefer waffle over pancake. Be prepared to wait weekend mornings but the line seems to move quickly. Def recommend!

    Fish po boy! Delish!

    Service was excellent! Food was excellent. Would absolutely come back! Generous portion sizes.

    5 Stars - A True Asheville Classic! If you're looking for that perfect local spot in Asheville with great food, fast service, and a welcoming vibe, look no further than Five Points Restaurant. I stopped in for Mother's Day brunch and was instantly impressed. The staff was super friendly and attentive without being overbearing. My wife ordered the five points classic breakfast plate--eggs, bacon, and French toast--and everything was cooked just right. You can tell this place takes pride in doing the basics really well. The atmosphere is old-school diner in the best way possible--laid-back, clean, and filled with locals who clearly know where to find a good meal. The prices are totally reasonable, especially for the portion sizes. Whether you're a local or just visiting Asheville, Five Points is one of those places you'll be glad you tried. I'll definitely be back.

    Food excellent breakfast fast efficient n friendly Waitress had personality It was packed but kitchen works quickly getting food out Full house Service food n atmosphere good

    Busy cooks, great counter experience!
    Ron R.

    Five Points offers a good old fashioned "diner" experience. Friendly and efficient servers. We were able to get in quickly on a very busy Friday for lunch. Timing is everything. The food was good and sitting at the counter was entertaining. The cooks were slamming and jamming. I had a chicken wrap with fries and my wife had an open face roast beef plate with apple sauce and green beans. The only downside for me personally is the place is pretty noisy. My recommendation is to go to Five Points and get there early!

I think everything is made in house and it tastes like it. As their name states, they make gourmet potato chips with varying, over-the-top flavors ranging from salt and balsamic vinegar to ones topped with brown sugar, bacon and chocolate. Between the 12 of us we tried Salt & Vinegar, The Corsica, Southern BBQ and The Italiano. I had the Italiano Panini and The Nori chips. Both were totally delicious. The panini came out hot and gooey. The bread tasted great and the chips were so unique and surprising. I will say that they drizzled a little too much red chili aioli sauce. It was very thick and flavorful. However, after a few bites it was too much so I wiped off some of the sauce. But it was really good, and inventive. Everything is fresh and made to order so it did take us a while to get all of our food, given that we were a large group. They told us before we even sat and we still wanted to try it, so that no big deal. And I will say this. Our table was the last to get served and the food was amazing. Sometimes at restaurants the standards fall when they get busy and that DID NOT happen here. They served great dish after great dish. Bags of chips are available for purchase as well. I'm totally kicking myself that I didn't get some to take home. Gourmet Chip is an Asheville gem!

    I wanted a good brunch spot before exploring Asheville. I found Flour and read the reviews…read more According to the reviews, the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit was a must-try because of how delicious and crispy the biscuit was. I wanted to see for myself how delicious this biscuit was, and I agree with the reviews. This biscuit combo was delicious! I loved how the top of the biscuit was crispy while the inside was fluffy and tasty. The biscuit wasn't dry, and the bacon was delicious with the melted cheese and egg. The potatoes were also delicious and crispy, especially with the aioli. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I received my order quickly, within 5 minutes. I will definitely come back to Flour when I visit Asheville again!

I don't think I have ever had a breakfast sandwich on a biscuit that tasted this good. The biscuit itself was excellent, and the whole sandwich really stood out. The guy taking my order was very nice. It was a slow morning, so there was plenty of seating both inside and outside. Overall, the place had a relaxed, chill vibe. I could easily see myself hanging out for a while, catching up on work while drinking coffee. I was also impressed when the chef who delivered the food later came back out to ask if everything was okay. I really appreciated that it did not come off as a routine question, but rather a genuine one. Overall, this was a great stop, and I am glad I made the effort to check it out.
