    I really wanted to love this place but I was kind of disappointed. Another NC coffee shop that doesn't offer almond milk! Ugh!! So, I couldn't indulge in a latte instead I had what was on drip and had them add vanilla syrup and half and half. Unfortunately, the coffee was extremely bitter and had an awful aftertaste! Now I love me a smooth dark roast but this wasn't it! They didn't have a lot of pastries left when we got there. My partner ordered a Chai Latte that she really liked, she just wished it was hot. It came lukewarm! The service was good. They were nice and the atmosphere was chill and inviting but I probably won't be back.

    Loved Dripolator coffeehouse! I stopped in on the way to the Biltmore. It was an easy and delicious stop. The drink selection was great. I chose a golden milk latte and a breakfast sandwich. Both were amazing and a great way to start the day!

    This was a nice coffee place with good breakfast sandwiches! I loved that the coffee was served in a mug. I really liked how the shop was decorated and there were people coming in and out the whole time, so you know it's a favorite!

    The location is central and cute. I ordered the cappuccino. It was ok. My server wasn't really friendly and didn't give many recommendations on pastry's when asking. She simply mentioned I don't know. The backyard patio is a great summer lounge spot for you, friends, or your dog. Very cute interior.

    To say service and ambiance went well is an understatement because I cannot remember a time when this place has not been relaxing. I got my hands on a GF pumpkin choc chip muffin and a GF lemon bar, and both were enjoyable.

    Very quaint and clean coffee shop the the Biltmore Village area. Very good crafted options and some really good baked goods. Great place to hang out, a date or a work meeting. The staff were really pleasant !! Really good option if you don't want the big chain shops.

    Wow! What a place! It has a nice warm welcoming eclectic vibe. Not a big menu but everything is executed perfectly. Service was excellent and the Barista is a Rockstar! I had the BEST Salted Caramel Latte ever. You have to come here! You will not regret it.

    Nice, comfortable setting. Perfect for a coffee bar. Met a large group, plenty of seating. Could not ask for more.

    There seems to be a shortage of coffee shops in the Biltmore village area as it seems to be struggling a bit - not to fear !

    This was my first time ever visiting Asheville, and somehow one of the places I'll remember most…read morefrom the trip is a sandwich shop/bodega. I stopped in my first day and got the LT sandwich, which was amazing, but I ended up spending almost as much time looking around the store as I did eating. They have everything from local mustards and honey to tinned fish, seasonings, and a whole section from a local creamery with ice cream, yogurt, smoothies, etc. Everything seems thoughtfully picked out and locally sourced when possible, without having the ridiculous prices you sometimes expect from a place like this. The staff was also amazing--genuinely friendly, helpful, and happy to talk about the food and everything they carry. I liked the place enough that, despite having an entire city of restaurants I'd never tried before, I came back the very next day. This time I got the grinder, which ended up being my favorite, along with the roast beef, which was also delicious. Between the sandwiches, the people, and the frankly ridiculous amount of good shit packed into the store, everything about this place was great. There are plenty of places I didn't get a chance to try while I was in Asheville, but I have absolutely no regrets using two lunches on this one. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town. Shoutout to one of the owners- Patty- goes out of his way to take care of customers

    Wonderful bakery with sandwiches, groceries and lots of local love. Stop in for breakfast, dinner…read morefixings or supplies for a picnic lunch. They source as much as possible locally. A pair of breakfast sandwiches were handmade while we waited and were almost too big to finish; share, or come hungry. Friendly conversation and a laid back vibe make Forager a great choice to take a break from the crowds. Wholeheartedly recommend!

    This place is so good!! We came in with 12 of us girls. We basically took over the whole place, as…read moreit's on the smaller side, but there were still a few two-tops for others. 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!

    Stopped by on a whim to grab some chips to take home (because I spied a truffle chip, and I can…read morenever turn down a truffle chip!). This spot is a chip-lovers dream. They sell both pre-packaged bags as well as fresh-made chips to eat in-house. So naturally we tried both! Their Salt & 3 Vinegar chips were delicious. Perfect for an afternoon snack as you're exploring downtown. We ended up taking home some of their truffle chips, which were also tasty. My only complaint was that they needed salt. Not sure if they put less salt on because you can always add more, but they were so much better once we sprinkled some in the bag and shook. They also have sandwiches here - didn't get to try one on our visit, but they looked tasty. Good stop both for a meal as well as a snack.
