Guidebook for Asheville
Local Flavor
My TOP REQ: The Golden Fleece, a romantic hidden gem... This is my favorite place. The restaurant is in the historic gardener's cottage NEXT to the Grove Park Inn. Greek food like you don't even know it with perfectly chosen wine list to compliment. Romantic atmosphere with faux-fur blankets on the backs of chairs... I mean, come on! Does it get any better? Yes, then you can walk over to the Grove Park Inn for the million dollar views without paying the $25 parking fee at the Inn itself (local tip!) You're welcome.
Cold Brew Coffee on TAP, pastries, and an excellent wine + beer selection PLUS local musicians often perform intimate sets. Good for mornings, afternoons, and evenings.

Everything Else
Champagne, coffee, dogs, and books in an eclectic and cozy atmosphere... just a delightful place to duck into for a bit - if only to look around the maze of collector's books and secret nooks of books on three levels.
