Neighborhoods

West Asheville is our former neighborhood and is one of the "hippest" places around! It's known for its small shops selling vintage clothing, books and records. Haywood Rd. is lined with breweries, retro-cool music venues, some of the best brunch spots in the country (check out Biscuit Head and Sunny Point!) as well as innovative new eateries. It's also the home to the East Coast operation of New Belgium Brewing.
