Recently went to Asheville for a long weekend vacation. We had our breakfast at Owl every single morning! All of the baked goods, sweet and savory, rival anything found anywhere. Delicious lattes are served by the most charming staff!
I would drive back to Asheville just to visit this beautiful bakery.

Unbelievably delicious bakery and good coffee as well
It was amazing pastries as well as coffee! Five stars both days we went! I got the Lemon tart and something chocolate. Very good. Indoor not a lot of seating, but Plenty out back! If you’re wondering if you should try it, DO!!

OWL Bakery West Asheville is a bakery known for its delicious pastries and breads. The pastries are fantastic, with popular options like the classic croissant, cardamom buns, almond croissant, walnut pastry, and lemon sesame. The cardamom buns are a must-get, described as a combination of a cinnamon roll, croissant, and thick bread covered in a mildly sweet, cardamom sauce with an unbelievable texture. The breads are also a highlight, made with locally stone milled, mostly locally or regionally grown and heirloom grains. They are always well-hydrated, moist, and have complex sourdough flavors that aren't overwhelming. Favorites include the einkorn bread. The coffee, including an iced mocha and a squash latte, is delicious, with methodical coffee used. The atmosphere is cozy inside with public seating out back. While service has had issues in the past, recent visits have found friendly staff. The bakery is very popular, often packed, so arriving early is recommended as popular loaves and pastries sell out.
