The lady working was incredibly kind and helpful, and we had a nice chat with her while making our selections. This place is definitely our new go-to for beers to-go when we're visiting our family in Brevard. Hopefully next time we'll have more time and stay to enjoy a beer there in the taproom or on their patio.

Shared a charcuterie plate - it lacked nothing and shocked with a few spectacular items. Ordered a smoked meat tray from the (next door) smokehouse and every part of it rocked. Nuff said. Staff were very knowledgeable, and wonderfully courteous. Location is quaint and welcoming, though out-of-the-way unless you're vacationing or live in the area. But for us ... well worth the hours trek through the mountains on a hot summer's day.

Then it doubles as a post-ride patio with food, coffee, beer, and good vibes. What's not to love? I try to get up there a couple of times a year from Atlanta. The trails are great, but not enough to make the drive worth it, but you add the community at The Hub, and it's totally worth it. Thank you to the team there and all you do to help mountain bikers, even beginners like me, feel like they have a home in Pisgah/Brevard.

When our son decided to attend Brevard College, The Hub promised us a family discount for the…read moreduration of his enrollment. We received that discount on our previous visit and noted it in our reservation for this trip. When we arrived, the manager told us the policy had changed, the employee who had offered us the discount no longer worked there, and someone was supposed to have emailed us about the change. He then acknowledged that the email hadn't been sent. Had we been notified, we would have had time to consider other options, including renting elsewhere or riding just one day. Instead, The Hub's cancellation fee meant we would have to spend an additional $30 and change our plans to make other arrangements. When we asked the manager to make it right, he refused. We understand that businesses change policies and employees move on. We had no problem with the new policy applying to future visits, when we knew what to expect before making a reservation. We expected The Hub to honor its commitment on a reservation made in good faith, particularly when we had specifically noted the discount and were never informed of the change, despite The Hub having six days to reach out between when we made the reservation and when we arrived to pick up the bikes. The Hub may point out that they let us use a truck pad at no charge. Had we known it cost $30 to rent the pad, we would have ridden from the parking lot, as we did on our previous visit. We live in Crested Butte, Colorado, another mountain town where mountain biking tourism is vital to the local economy. We know how much customer service and word of mouth matter to independent bike shops. Perhaps The Hub has grown to the size where it can afford to value policies over people. We'll be getting to know other independent, locally owned shops in Brevard. One bright spot was Squatch, whose owner was exceptionally nice and helpful when we visited after our experience with The Hub. There are plenty of places to rent a bike in a mountain town; choose one that values its customers over a few extra dollars.

I am not local to the area and I do wish I could revisit this establishment. My bar fly days have been long gone, yet I guess "closing the bar" is part of my genetic structure, and these things don't go away. It's not something that I intend on doing, but the conversation flows with me and around me, and people just don't want me to go home! So, we ended up hanging out with one of the owners, and this gave me an insight to the whole idea behind this concept. If you are interested in local, unique products, and search for new flavors, this is the place to find excellent quality drinks. There's in-house gin and bitters, and that is all I will say. Well, one more thing I will say: don't be surprised if this bar becomes a national destination. The bar itself is classy and inviting, the music is great, the crowd is cool, but the hospitality is above tops. This place has it all and deserves a visit. Closing statement: very few places deserve 6 stars, this is one of them.

Get over yourselves. This is a lovely little restaurant/bar, beautifully decorated, relaxed, and staffed by genuinely friendly people. We had the club and the chicken salad wrap, and both were reasonably sized and priced, and actually filling. They also have a nice selection of drinks. Honestly, it was a welcome break from some of the snootier places nearby where you pay $27 for three bites of food artfully arranged on a plate big enough for a cocktail wiener. If you want good food, good drinks, nice people, and to leave with both your stomach and bank account intact, give this place a try.

Very cute general store located in the heart of downtown Franklin, N.C…read more We stopped in for a coffee and to take a quick look around. It seems to be the hot spot for locals. They have several cozy seating areas and a nice porch where you can rest, take a break, and enjoy some of their delicious ice cream or sip on a Latte. Staff serves up a variety of gourmet espresso, coffee, hot chocolate, and teas. If you're in the mood for ice cream they hand-scoop it here and offer several dips, toppings, and fresh baked waffle cones. The store also sells a variety of local honey, jams, spiced pumpkin butter, candy, and other goodies that you can take with you on the road. They also have a decent selection of unique gifts, toys, and souvenirs. The store and restrooms are well-kept, clean, organized, and the staff are super friendly. It is a little bit expensive to shop here but it's in a prime location and there are not too many other convenience stores in the immediate area, so that's to be expected. All-in-all, a great spot to stop in you need something while spending time in Franklin, N.C.
