Daymoon Coffeebar Locals’ pick
A drive-thru with actually good coffee... Asheville basically never gives you both. Pull up, grab the cortado, keep moving.

The Admiral
Locals’ pickDon't let the plain exterior fool you. This vintage diner shell hides some of the most inventive cooking in town, now on the Michelin list. It's small and beloved, so book ahead or you're NOT getting in.

Neng Jr.'s Locals’ pick
Book early or plan on missing it. Hardest reservation in town right now, and it earns it. The Filipino menu is bold and personal, nothing watered down for a wider crowd.
Hole Doughnuts
Doughnuts fried to ORDER, so they hit warm and a little crackly at the edges. Small menu, done exactly right. Beat the line.
