Always a good experience at Leo's. The team is attentive, pleasant, and knowledgeable about Whiskey/Bourbon.A few things to know:- Menu is seasonal so expect to see new, fresh cocktail options- No hats after 5pm, a nod to the past- Get your drink to-go, and sit outside, or in the park- The space is intimate, so expect to be cozy with your neighborPics: Classic Old Fashioned, Blackberry Smash Sage, Prickly Pear, Tennessee Tea, and Knob creek on the rock

The owner, her husband, and the staff are amazing !!!! They will get to know you if you have been there more than once. Start making your normal drink before you even sit down and then tell you what else they have. Love going to Leo's. It reminds me of a small 1930's speak easy. Love the people, love the atmosphere, great drink and bottle selection...very large variety. The staff is very knowledgeable about what they sell and they will teach you.

We love the intimacy of Leo's Whiskey Bar. Literally a hole-in-the-wall place with a U-shaped bar commanding the center of the room. You're right there with the bartenders and other patrons at the bar which is great for making new friends. There are a few tables to sit at if you would like a more private conversation. Or all the bar stools are taken. When I say the place is intimate, I really mean it. The maximum capacity is 25 and that includes the staff.What really defines Leo's are the superb craft cocktails. This IS a whiskey bar and the bartenders literally craft your drink. No slinging liquor here! The prices are very reasonable, especially given the quality of the beverages. Definitely a place to stop in for a nightcap, or, hold court from the corner of the bar!

Over the weekend after dining at Taco Loco, my date and I cross the street to "just stick your head in" to Leo's whiskey bar. Or immediate impression was to step in, grab a table and order a drink!The ambience of the place was quite surprising, and extremely welcoming. Although it's a little tight and probably seats around 30 people, I'm guessing, there were still ample room between bar seats, inside tables and outside tablesAlthough their forte is whiskey, they had an amazing menu of mixed drinks and other libations if you are not a whiskey person, per se . The husband of the pair had made a few recommendations for what turned out to be a Mule-style drink for my date and sort of a piña colada sort of a drink for me that had whiskey as the primary liquor.Hers had a touch of jalapeño so it had a little bit of a bite to it but what an amazing surprise in terms of flavors. My drink also was shocking and absolutely delicious and a great recommendation by the owner!If you're looking for a place to have a drink before dinner or cocktails after dinner or after an afternoon of walking the streets of Asheboro, I would highly recommend this establishment. Excellent service, excellent drinks and did not break the budget!Definitely five star all the way !
Truly love Leo's Whiskey Bar! Have never had a bad experience. The drinks are amazing and the bar tenders are even better. Always a great time!

Great whiskey selection and great cocktails!
Aimee Corning
Very small, quaint place. Amazing variety of whiskeys, and a very knowledgeable bartender to answer any questions or offer suggestions.
Carl Corning
Really nice quaint shop. Lots of various types of whiskey to sample at various prices. Small compact bar with extremely knowledgeable lady behind the bar. I sampled several including a Suntory whiskey from Japan. Smooth and peaty tasting. My wife had what she described as the best whiskey sour ever!

Classy joint with an excellent variety of bourbons! Stop by for the Leo’s old fashioned or many of the unique and delicious rotating cocktails they have to offer. Come for the whiskey and stay for the vibes! The girls are sweet and they know what’s good so definitely ask for recommendations.
