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.

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.

I went before and after sunset, and something felt extra cozy about going there when the sun was down and the mood lighting was on. This is the perfect place to take a date, a friend, or a group! To order a drink, you have to order at the bar and then seat yourself. The bartenders work quickly, but I imagine there might be longer lines at certain hours. The drinks themselves were well-made and I also love that you can buy the books displayed there! Really fun concept, would recommend.

We walked in without a reservation, sat down, and had the kind of long, unhurried dinner that feels increasingly rare. Nobody rushed us. They let us share plates without hesitation. The menu is billed as New American, and that's the right phrase for it -- genuinely eclectic, pulling from Spanish, French bistro, and Southern influences without committing to any one of them. The pork chop was excellent. The grilled carrots were genuinely memorable. The green salad was simple and well done. Our waiter recommended a wine that we were pleased with, and even offered a tasting. The wine list is deep for a room this size, and the cocktail list looks the same. Music was at that sweet-spot volume where you can hear your conversation partner and still hear the song. You could bring your parents, or come on a date, it works either way. Some farm-to-table places feel pretentious; this one doesn't. They don't make you feel dumb for not knowing every local distributor. One small gripe: a 3% "kitchen staff fee" printed on the back of the menu. I'm all for paying the kitchen, but I'd rather see it built into the prices up front. 4.7 Stars. What would push it to a solid five stars: drop the hidden fee and bake it into the menu prices. That's genuinely the only thing standing between this and a perfect night out.

Also tried some of the pork chop (very tender & great sauce) and mushroom risotto (herby and great flavors on the mushrooms).

They've got a good looking menu and I was pleased to find something a little interesting to have. The smoked turkey and avocado eggs benedict. A really tasty combination, but very VERY messy and difficult to eat. I also got some cheesy grits, which came as a MUCH larger serving than I anticipated. I could not finish them, no matter how good they taste! There were sports on the TVs even early in the day and it looked like a lot of locals like this spot and there were several regulars. That is the mark of a good place, for me. So overview: good food, generous helpings, good location. Would def return.

This was one of THE most unique wine/cocktail bar I've been to for a few reasons. I loved the way their menu was formatted with details on flavor profiles, styles and separated into quadrants. They had a small food menu that was very intriguing and eccentric. My eyes locked in on the Thai Tea Panna Cotta! OMG yum! It was decadent, luscious and was so flavorful. The layered coconut milk and that lemon meringue on top was such a nice touch of acid to cut through all that richness. I'm a sucker for boba pearls too so it was all delicious. Our server was so friendly and helped us through the menu. She checked in on us periodically and made sure we were taken care of. They were also playing great music! I would highly recommend this place for all sorts of vibes - girls night out, date night or even just solo. Can't wait to come back!

If you are coming from the East it is easy to miss as the only sign is on the corner facing West and the food trucks block it a bit.

Sat at the bar and Elizabeth was very helpful explaining the beers and providing a couple of samples before we landed on our beers. All beers are barrel aged and gluten reduced so that is nice. Beers were very good but was only able to have one this time. Elizabeth and the other customers were all super friendly with recommendations for other places to try. Would definitely recommend as one of my top 5 breweries in Asheville and will be back!
