Parking

Parking in West Asheville, quite frankly, sucks. Weekends and peak times are worse. If you are going to drive, look for Paid Parking signs pointing to off-street parking down side streets. Just make sure to follow the pay-to-park directions. Whatever you do, do NOT park in areas marked No Parking. You will be towed.

The breakfast line

If you're going to Early Girl, Biscuit Head, or Sunny Point, there WILL be a long wait, even on off-times. These are great places to grab breakfast, but there's plenty of other gems in West Asheville for folks who can't abide a line. The short or no-wait spots are the ones I've included in this guide.

Breweries and bars

West Asheville has too many great bars and breweries to list. You kinda can't go wrong. Just wander around and pop in wherever feels right. Some bars still enforce old NC Membership rules.
