I finally checked out Benitos' @ The Hound Lounge on Tunnel Road last night for drinks and dinner…read more The Hound is just east of the tunnel and it was the former Greyhound Bus station. I was a huge fan of RosaBees and their Chef - Cookie Hadley so it was my goal to try Benito's ASAP. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, my friend Marissa and I sat at the bar and enjoyed some lively chatting with other patrons. If you were familiar with RosaBees in the RAD, the menu will seem familiar, loaded with great choices and creativity. Marissa ordered the Patata's Bravos - Roasted potatoes , olive oils and Bravas sauce - $9. I chose the Big A** Tuna Poke bowl for $22. Toss in one of their special Margarita's and a draft beer we left very happy customers. Check out this hidden gem for some excellent food and drinks. They also had duo band playing music outside during Happy Hour.

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.

Super cute spot to get cocktails in Asheville!…read more The theme is on point - love the old decor, the fireside in the yard, the dark arches as you walk in, and the potion-like menu. You order at the bar and they bring the drinks to you. I ordered the Coffee Date and my boyfriend got the Nothing Compares. Mine was warm and coffee forward, and you can definitely taste the whiskey. The cream on top is nice. Great blend of daytime drink with alcohol.

This cocktail bar is a MUST on an Asheville trip. I wish we had this in my city! I absolutely loved…read moreDayTrip. The vibes are incredible. There is a free parking lot in the back. There is tons of seating indoors and a cute backyard feeling outdoor patio. Even though it's a huge space, it's extremely intimate. The 70s living room decor is so cute. I came here with two friends, but it's also awesome for bigger groups. They have an amazing menu of signature cocktails and mocktails. We were there on an evening they were celebrating a bday with Hail Mary. They seem to have a lot of cool local events. The bartenders were amazing! They were beyond friendly and just so down to earth. We went straight to the indoor bar when we arrived and were served almost immediately. I want to plan another trip to AVL soon just so I can spend more time at DayTrip.

The only thing not great was the small couches and chairs in the back need to be replaced - they sag the moment you sit and almost tip you forward out of them.

Inside, the bar's massive spirits collection (over 1,000 bottles, including some rare whiskies) backs up its reputation for top-tier, creative cocktails. Drinks like my favorite " Jack Treehorn" come highly recommended, and the bartenders seem to know their craft -- delivering drinks that are balanced, thoughtfully made, and sometimes theatrical. If you're in Asheville and in the mood for something atmospheric, unique, and whiskey-forward -- somewhere to soak in character and good drinks rather than sleek modern bar polish -- Crow & Quill is absolutely worth checking out.

The bar is known for its craft cocktails, creative cocktails that are often praised for their balance and craftsmanship. Drinks like their smoked mezcal cocktails or old fashioneds tend to stand out, and live music on select nights adds to the intimate, atmospheric charm. It's a cozy, often crowded space, so seating can be limited and service may feel slower on busy nights.
