Baby Bull was opened by a high-end restaurant in Asheville (Bull & Beggar) after their Monday Burger night got so popular....it needed its own restaurant!
This is a great low-key spot located a few minutes from the Airbnb in the river arts district. The menu is small but everything they make is delicious. They serve up burgers, lobster rolls, fish sandwiches & fries.

La Bodega by Cúrate – an all-day cafe and Spanish specialty foods shop and restaurant, offering classic Spanish pastries and coffee, casual lunch, dinner and takeout meals and paella.
The upstairs is a full restaurant serving up the BEST brunch, lunch and dinner! This is the sister restaurant to the famous Curate restaurant (but is better in our opinion). If you can’t get into the busy Curate, consider yourself lucky and go here instead! Or at least pop into the cafe for a coffee, pastry or sandwich to-go.

New Belgium has world-class beers and is also located down the street from our Airbnb! New Belgium is one of the only breweries located on the river, so go get yourself a spot on the deck. We spend most our time here, being our place of work!
