1/2 Priced Appetizers from our “Start Me Up” menu Thursday Nights from 4-10pm.
(Dine in Only)
BURGERS • BEER • RAW BAR
Deciding to open or holding tight has been extremely difficult & nerve wracking. We are super stoked to be so close to opening that we can taste it, but damn are we facing some serious challenges! Opening a new restaurant or any business is far from easy by any sense of the word especially during a pandemic. Tremendous challenges, limited alcohol sales, curfews & now limitations to 30% indoor capacity.
This being said, we have chosen to persevere & PUSH THROUGH with our original full menu, 20 beers on draft, nice selection of delicious vino which will be available ALL DAY with 6 or 7 days in mind. We are shooting for the 14th of January!
Through indoor & outdoor dining as well as take out, we can’t wait to serve you & earn your trust as one of your NEW favorite family-owned & operated mainstays! Cheers to 2021, let’s make it great!!
Brunch B’Yahad is now available through Zoom meeting here.
Join new and old friends for light brunch, socialization and lively discussion. Featured guest speakers, and relevant cultural and timely topics will fill our minds.

Registration is now open, with course descriptions, instructor bios, cost information and more, available at greatsmokies.unca.edu.
Join us for three hours “off the eaten path” as we find and gather over a dozen wild edibles. We’ll whip up a little tasting right on the trail. Take home the rest of your finds and/or get ready for some find dining when one of our award-winning restaurant partners prepares your “catch of the day,” with lunch, brunch or dinner, for free. Wild mushroom pizza, daylily tamales, sassafras root beer, wisteria ice cream… it all depends on what we find!

The Usual Suspects -a collective mix of local bluegrass musicians rocking out this Saturday night! Stop by the pub to kick up your heels with a pint. Sláinte!
Hailing from the mountain towns of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland, The Jakob’s Ferry Stragglers draw freely from Old-Time, Bluegrass, Rockabilly, and Swing music to create their own brand of high energy, Appalachian Bluegrass. Gary Antol (guitar/vocals) and Libby Eddy (fiddle/vocals) founded the band in 2014 with a very simple goal: write good songs, honor the music, and take it to the road. In the time since, Jakob’s Ferry Stragglers has performed in clubs across the country and appeared at festivals including Delfest, Grey Fox, Delaware Valley Bluegrass Festival, and many more.
Come enjoy an evening of live music, food and drinks at the Isis Music Hall. Reservations are highly recommended.
Led by songwriters Isaac Horn (guitar) and Lincoln Mick (mandolin), and with the support of other gifted musicians, The Arcadian Wild confidently inhabits and explores an intersection of genre, blending the traditional with the contemporary in order to create a unique acoustic sound that is simultaneously unified and diverse. With one foot planted firmly in choral and formal vocal music, and the other in progressive folk and bluegrass, the band offers up songs of invitation: calls to come and see, to find refuge and rest, or to journey and wonder. In May 2019, The Arcadian Wild released their sophomore record, “Finch in the Pantry” (May 2019), which debuted at #9 on the Billboard bluegrass charts.
One of the most unique things about The Asheville Fringe Arts Festival is our Random Acts of Fringe. These short, site-specific performances are mostly free and open to the public. This year, most of our RAFs are happening on social media, so be sure to follow us there for more information about these shows.
