The BEST bakery I have been to in a very long time. We started out sharing a ham and cheese croissant. The ham and cheese was baked into the croissant. Light, flaky, and very delicious. I am surprised my husband let me have more than one bite. We ordered the quiche of the day and the one available every day. The ham and cheese was the quiche of the day. It was light, creamy, and very rich. The other quiche had spinach, feta, and tomatoes. It was equally delicious. Go and check them out. You will not be sorry. Go now.

It was still pretty bustling for being so hidden. The staff were very kind and the menu was perfect. They had a few baked goods to satisfy all needs, and a nice array of coffee options. They also seem to have a good amount of teas and alternative beverages. I got a simple coffee and a tasted delightful. I love that they have a little store on site and a nice space for seating. It makes it good for browsing and for catching up with a friend.

I did feel like it was missing a deeper cardamom note that could have rounded out the spice profile a bit more. That said, at around $4 it's hard to complain. It's a solid, affordable drink and a nice option if you want something warm and a little different from the usual coffee order.

We stayed on the main floor since the host seated us there, but later realized you can order at the bar and take your drinks up to the rooftop--something I wish we knew earlier. The bartenders were pleasant and laid-back, not pretentious at all. The cocktails were inventive and well-crafted. I went with the Coffee Date and Lord of Misrule--pretty good--but in hindsight, I wish I had tried more of their Fever-Tree and Chemist collaborations, which sounded especially interesting.

Rowan Coffee is a hidden gem in Asheville, and a café that quietly becomes an unexpected part of…read moreyour story. Tucked away near the end of Broadway, Rowan possesses a warm and understated charm. The soft lighting and calm atmosphere create a cozy ambiance that exudes thoughtfully curated design, while the gentle hum of conversation and espresso machines add a touch of life to the space. It's the kind of coffee shop where rainy afternoons feel like a cinematic scene from your favorite film. Recently, I met a date here, as Rowan seemed like the perfect setting for such a memorable beginning. After we greeted one another with an intimate kiss just outside the doors of Rowan Coffee, I observed a Duchenne smile flash across her face before we embarked on what became an emotionally recursive, psychologically layered Asheville odyssey, as we explored Malaprop's Bookstore, the Grove Arcade, Wall Street, Pack Square Park, I.M. Pei's connection to structures outside both the Louvre and the Asheville Art Museum, French Broad Chocolate, Cúrate, and the South Slope. The coffee at Rowan is truly exceptional. Each cup is thoughtfully crafted, balanced, and served with care by passionate baristas. It can be rather challenging to find premium cold brew these days, but the cold brew on offer here is some of the best I've found in Asheville. Whether you're enjoying a cappuccino, catching up with a friend, or studying/working near the back, Rowan provides the perfect atmosphere for unwinding and savoring the moment. My date ordered a mocha that morning, and based on the enthusiasm with which it disappeared, I'd be remiss not to mention it. The mochas are so good here that girls do circle back. And if you don't, you're missing out. What truly sets Rowan apart is its comfort. It's an intimate space without being overcrowded; it's stylish without being pretentious. It encourages conversation, reflection, and even accidental three-hour stays.

They get their bagels from a local bagel joint called Joey's; and you can add butter, cream cheese, or make it a sandwich! They also have baked goods, I particularly love the seasonal pumpkin chocolate chip muffin. They have a large selection of local art on display at all times, available for sale! This ranges from stickers, to prints, to paintings. I've gotten a few things from my house here. They recently added a calendar of monthly events. I haven't been able to check them out yet but they have some fun options including collage night and game night! Staff is always friendly and working hard. Come check out Penny Cup!
