It's everything people say it is. The biscuits are fresh, buttery, and absolutely delicious, but the real surprise was the homemade jam. Oh. My. Goodness. The jam deserves its own standing ovation. We even saved what we had left and used it later on a campfire breakfast during our road trip. The biscuit we made at camp wasn't quite the same, but that jam still stole the show. Their homemade butter was another standout, and the coffee menu had plenty of great options. Everything we tried was fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and absolutely worth it. The café itself is adorable, and the whole experience made us wish we had found it sooner. If they don't already sell that jam by the jar, they absolutely should. I'd buy it without hesitation. If you're in Asheville, do yourself a favor and stop by ButterPunk. Get the biscuit. Get the butter. And whatever you do... don't leave without trying the jam. Highly, highly recommend!

With so many excellent reviews, this has been on our bucket list for Asheville for a long time!…read moreUnfortunately, Butter Punk missed the mark. The line moved pretty quickly and was wrapped out the door, I'd say we only waited for about 15 minutes before ordering and then another 15 after that for the food and two coffees. Service was bubbly and friendly, and the atmosphere is so cool. The food was okay, but less than what I'd consider "good" and on the more expensive side. Our coffee was quite bitter. I did appreciate the thick cut bacon!

Absolutely loved the short rib stroganoff and would order it again. Another standout was the wild boar Bolognese, not really for me, but the other people in our group loved it. Overall, this place has a lot of ambience and great service too. Again, I would say order extra garlic knots. In the first round, they bring them out on the house, but additional orders are at a nominal cost. Delightful place and the food is superb!

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!

All Day Darling is a 2025 Michelin-recognized spot, and what a surprise and cute name!!!…read more While exploring near Grove Arcade, I searched Yelp for a local brunch place and found this gem. Like many cafés in Asheville, it's a self-bussing establishment, so guests return their own dishes after eating. The cafe is charming, with plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff were warm, welcoming, and food was very good. We ordered drinks which was okay...next time I'll opt for water. Luckily, the Buddha Bowl and the breakfast sandwich served on a perfectly baked biscuit, and both were fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. I even bought their after-meal herbal tonic a try--not sure if it worked, but like to try it to give my stomach more energy and room to eat!!!

I figured I'd have to get there right when they opened to beat the crowd. Then I hit snooze about a thousand times and stumbled in a few hours later. Somehow there were only three people in line. While the cashier at the counter cut me off after I ordered two items, telling me I was "going too fast"... I thought she was about to ruin my morning. Turns out she was an angel, guiding me to the light. She recommended The Standard, which I assumed was just a basic-ass breakfast sandwich, then told me to get it on the biscuit instead of the bread/roll/bun/whatever. That flaky, buttery, soft biscuit made me feel like I was in heaven. And don't forget the herb mayo--the cherry on top of one of the best milkshakes... I mean sandwiches... I've ever had. The lavender, fairy-dust, moon-water, up-your-ass spritzer seasonal special or whatever the hell it was... also delicious. Such an amazing way to start my day that when I told my friends about it, they immediately wanted to go for lunch. I RARELY, IF EVER, EAT AT THE SAME RESTAURANT TWICE IN ONE DAY. By lunchtime I felt like I should've been getting employee discounts. Hell, it was so damn hot in Asheville I bought one of their tank tops after breakfast... then came back wearing it for lunch like I'd worked there for years. I'll spare you the details of everything we ordered, but let me tell you this: not a single complaint. And that's saying something with the group of professional complainers I seem to have surrounded myself with. If you're reading this, lady at the counter--you were right. I hope you're out there telling other lost souls they're going too fast... and to get the biscuit. Asheville might've gotten the Michelin recognition, but you deserve a star too. Verdict: I'd eat here twice in one day again

Made reservations a week in advance since it is popular & we were coming on a Saturday night. had to call to do this but the staff were quick with the booking. We were staying on the north side of Asheville a few minutes from downtown & this was a quick 12 drive to Weaverille. Place was packed when we arrived 10 mins early for our seating. We waited maybe 3 mins though & were in our booth.The vibe here is something else. Decor is eclectic but layout mimics the vintage diner that it resembles from the outside. Very casual but doesnt necessarily feel that way. Menu isnt extensive so you dont have to fret about too many choices which i personally like. We started off with the seasonal watermelon salad which my wife says is one of her favorite things shes had anywhere in recent memory. I had a side portion of the steak wedge salad. For mains i had the carolina shrimp & grits & my wife got the pot pie. Both were insanely rich & satisfying. Good portions & quality ingredients represented. Even though at this point we were stuffed we had to go for dessert & tried the omg peanut butter pie & the tiramisu. not surprisingly, both were excellent. Apparently they have a dedicated pastry chef who makes the desserts every morning. Service was really good here and my sister in law's friend who was working the bar came over and raved about being employed there which is good to hear. Cant find anything negative to say about this place & you'd be hard pressed to find anybody doing so online really either. Just a local joint serving good food in a fun environment. Highly recommend
