Warning: I purchased a $50.00 gift card from them for my office manager, who works for me remotely in Asheville, NC. Her gift card doesn't work because they are in the process of switching service providers. It's been frustrating being told the card now works, only for her to take the time to go use it and be told again that it doesn't work. While they are working diligently to get their system up and running, they should allow my office manager to order the food and beverages she wants, up to the amount of his gift card, whenever she wants to use it. That would be more professional. read more

In the morning it is quiet and clean. A good spot for a cup of coffee. If you order a cappuccino "for here" you get it in a ceramic mug. What a concept! I feel like if you pay over $5 for a coffee, you should be able to skip the paper and plastic waste. They allow you to bring in outside food. So you can pick up something tasty at Ultra Coffee Bar and eat it here away from the crowds. read more

Summit Coffee - Cappuccino with a cool bear! Heck yeah! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Summit Coffee is the perfectly convenient stop for coffee while wandering downtown. I'd been to the River Arts District a few times while in the area, so it's sad to see they were hit so badly by Helene. Luckily this location is still around! We stopped in for a morning pick me up before heading to Bebette's - and the Maple Sea Salt Iced Coffee was calling my name. I found it to be a little watered down for my tastes but maybe it's because I'm used to iced americanos, shaken espressos and cold brew. However, the seasonal flavor of the maple sea salt really had me getting into the holiday spirit. The interior is small and intimate with some outdoor seating as well, although it was freezing when we arrived so we were definitely not going to partake. read more

The coffee experience was really great! I enjoyed my drink which was ordered half sweet. They nailed it! I forgot to ask what kind of beans they use but it was smooth tasting and non bitter. If I lived in this area I would certainly have this place in my regular rotation. The staff was very friendly and they were playing some great music too! Recommended! read more

I know Summit is a chain and all but man I freaking love this place. First of all, their coffee slaps. I've been to multiple locations (in other cities too) and have never been disappointed. But the Grove Arcade is my favorite. All the baristas are wicked cool and the drinks are always 11/10. Plus they have a cute wall of Polaroid pics of people's pets that will make you smile while you're waiting for your tasty beverage. read more

Great morning spot. The coffee was rich and delish. Staff was helpful and friendly. Inside and outside (very sunny and cozy even in 30 degrees) seating were simple and perfect. I wish they had more coffee beans in stock. What I picked up was good but want to try others. I'll go back. read more

Time: 8am Monday & 2pm Wednesday Drinks: Iced Mocha Latte & Iced Caramel Mocha Latte Pros: -Small, local shop. -Friendly staff. -Not a long wait. -Iced mocha latte was delicious. Made perfectly. Cons: -Very small shop. -The iced caramel mocha latte was very sweet. Tasted like chocolate milk. Too sweet. -A little pricey. -Not a lot of ice in the drink so it melted too quickly. read more

The shop is small and has a nice vibe that fits the area well. The staff were friendly and helpful. I ordered a cappuccino and it was just okay. The drink was pretty bland for a cappuccino. If you are driving in, there is street parking right in front of the shop. read more

Service and ambiance take it all but we ordered Cold Match latte and hot chocolate, both were pretty bland. Matcha was the worst all it had was milk and lumps of matcha powder. We threw away both the drinks. read more

Cute little place and excellent coffee. The service was fast and friendly and the outside seating is convenient for a little break. Not really enough room inside to post up with a laptop if you're looking to do some work, but great if you need a pick-me-up and/or want to sit outside at the tables. read more

Placed a quick online order while we were out and about. They had a special drink which was a berry tea with coconut foam and it was delicious. The inside was teeny tiny, but was fine as I was just grabbing out drinks to go. I placed my order with the app and by the time I got there it was ready. Summit never disappoints and this was no exception. read more

Coffee was good a little on the warm side. I love my coffee very hot. But overall it was good

Cozy atmosphere with kind employees and an excellent location downtown close to lots of hotels and shopping. I had a vanilla latte and it was the perfect level of flavor without being too sweet. It was perfect for a cold day. read more

Was in Asheville for a few days and like I always do I try to find and seek out local coffee shops and stray away from the big name brands (yes I'm talking about you Starbucks). Was at the Pinball Museum and decided to take a break from all of the pinball and video game playing to get some coffee. This place was located less than a block away and I was so excited! The vibe was good and the coffee was even better. I will say the guy taking my order was great but the barista making the coffee looked like he either hates coffee or hates being there or both. Either way I wasn't going to let him ruin my vibe and good coffee. I was visiting from Charleston and was excited to hear that they are planning on opening several Summit Coffee locations in my area soon so win win! read more

One of the least favorite this trip. Lacking flavor in my mocha as other places did. Service was fast and the people were nice.

Cute, cozy spot. I had a hot maple chai, flavors were bright and on point, sweetness was downplayed and perfect. However, it could have def been a tad hotter. But my gasping take away was a low 7.50 for the small size!!! (Wtf) Yes, I subbed nondairy milk, but still, huh?!?! Honestly, thank god I didn't go big, I'd probably still be trying to recover. read more

Some of the best coffee and great vibe of Asheville. Well done, and the lemon thyme cookie was next level!

Stopped here to get coffee. Workers were really nice and super quick. It was a bit overpriced in my opinion but the coffee was great. read more

Summit Coffee - turtle mocha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Stopped at summit coffee 5 times in 2 days for multiple drinks . Every drink was very good , the atmosphere was just average . Menu is on the little expensive side for what you get . Few customers were definitely not the best of people but you can't hold that against the business. Still worth a 3.75-4 star rating because every drink was very good despite the decor, atmosphere and the average attitude employees . read more

Stumbled upon this place as my hubby, in-laws and I were strolling through downtown Asheville. As soon as you walk in, you immediately know this coffee is about to be blazin'! The two baristas (who I thought were also the owners) were super nice and recommended two amazing drinks: the iced rose matcha latte w/oat milk and the blueberry honeysuckle latte. While I technically didn't order my own drink I tasted both and was blown away. The rose matcha latte was AMAZING! I never thought about putting those two flavors together, but it worked. I loved it so much that I ended getting one the next day at their Arts District location. Summit Coffee, I shall be back for more goodness! read more

Great match and friendly staff. I also spent sometime getting some work done and the wifi was good. I could see how if it's a busy time work would be hard though with where the seating is. Just fyi read more

Just a note that the entrance to this place is outside the Grove Arcade. It's small with only a couple of tables inside. I'm guessing most folks get their coffee to go or take inside the Grove Arcade. The coffee is actually pretty good and was piping hot. The service was OK but rather more businesslike. A couple originally from Australia does a review of the Asheville area and gave Summit and High Five Coffee the highest marks if that helps. There is another Summit Coffee located in the River Arts district that is much larger, however, I didn't get a chance to visit it. read more

I'm no coffee expert, but I did enjoy my iced latte with caramel. They were polite and prompt with my order. Nice!

Pretty cute. Eh pastries, fine enough latte. The maple sea salt didn't have a detectable maple or sea salt flavor and was a bit watery for oat milk. Pastry was overly sweet and lacking any flavor profile. Three small tables and one bar seat. No "for here" cups so everything is to go. Asked staff for recommendations and got a "it's all good" response, which was a touch frustrating. It's nice when it feels like a barista loves their products and wants to help someone make the best choice. The bathroom is all of 20 feet from the furthest seat so it really feels like a grab and go place despite the seating options read more

Love this place! Jackson and Kate couldn't have been any friendlier or accommodating of our dog (who was a little anxious!). They brought him a pup cup and treated him like a king. My boyfriend loved his red eye and my Americano was fantastic. I don't like overly sweet coffee and their house made pumpkin spice syrup was incredible! It's made with real and whole ingredients - it's not that sugary fake stuff you get at Starbucks. read more

Excellent lattes and green tea! Service top notch each of the three times we visited. Best coffee place in Asheville.
