We had not been back to this great bar in about two years, and last night we did and are so glad we came back! One of the four owners was so friendly and interesting to talk to. I had an Appalachian Negroni, which was quite an interesting take on the familiar drink. My husband had a glass of red wine, which was a generous pour. Location is really excellent, and allows for some good people watching outside the side window! If you’re attending an Asheville Community Theatre play, definitely stop by here after the show – – it’s diagonally across the street from the theater.

Stopped by for drinks after dinner with the new in-laws. Creative cocktails, great staff and a fun vibe. Definitely worth a visit!

Truly a jewel of Asheville. Hospitable bartenders who have mastered their craft. The drinks are superb, the people are special, and the room is wonderful. Sovereign Remedies is not to be missed!

Delicious drinks and wonderful staff. There really isn't another bar like it. It's obvious that the details of this place are imbued with magic and love! I'm looking forward to coming back one Sunday for their bloodies.

This local gem has truly blossomed! I recently visited and was blown away by the transformation. The space has been completely refreshed, boasting a bright, airy feel downstairs with fantastic bar seating and plenty of natural light streaming through the windows. It's the perfect spot for a casual drink. Upstairs, however, is where the magic happens for intimate gatherings. Plenty of cozy seating nooks, creating the ideal atmosphere for connecting with friends over a drink. Speaking of which, the craft cocktail menu is a delight, featuring inventive and expertly mixed concoctions. And the wine list? Impressive and interesting, with something to please every palate. If you're looking for a locally owned bar with character, charm, and top-notch drinks, this is it. Highly recommend checking out their fresh new look!

was my second time here, but first since new ownership took over. had a good time with my friends, but the track lighting upstairs was shining directly in one of our friends faces, so we adjusted it. didn’t realize that was a terrible idea, because someone came upstairs and scolded us for moving it, without asking why, and moved it back.

Sovereign has been one of my long time favorites as an Asheville local. The location really cannot be beat if you want to be downtown- from holidays to late nights to popping in for the odd drink while walking around. The drinks and service are great. The aesthetic/ atmosphere is Romantic as in you'd expect to see Keats and Shelley writing poetry at the bar. Like if your literature professor was actually an immortal nature spirit (fae academia?). I promise that will make sense if you go 😂 I am so happy that some of the former staff were able to buy it and kept it from closing. They've made a lot of great renovations already- from menu to facilities. You can tell the new team has put a lot of attention and love into the details. If you aren't sure what you like, Margaret will be an amazing guide- asking what flavors you like to help choose a drink, etc. Regardless, she cracks me up and all the new owners/ staff are really lovely. Ask them for Asheville recommendations if you're new to town!

Inviting and magical, you know you’re in good hands when you sit down at the bar—you can feel it and you can see it. With a cozy and whimsical atmosphere, gorgeous decor, Sovereign Remedies is the perfect place for any occasion. But what truly makes this place shine are the people behind it who are intentional with every choice and have put the utmost care into creating a warm and lovely experience for all who enter. Delicious and creative cocktails with bartenders who clearly delight and are driven by what they do! Staff is attentive and caring, always with suggestions in case you’re not sure what you like too, so it’s an approachable place for the experienced drinker or someone looking to try something new! Special shout-out to one of the bartenders and owners—Margaret—who is a genuine delight, will have your sides splitting with laughter, and is someone you can tell loves what she does!! Just go people!

The upgrades from the new ownership are beautiful. Everything is very neat and clean while still being “Asheville cool”. Margaret’s martini was spot on… something that made it addictive but couldn’t quite put a finger on it… oh and to top it off the olives were house infused. Amazing! I can’t wait to go back and get the Champagne by the glass… or bottle depending on my mood. 🥂🍸🍾

This place is always on my list when I visit Asheville and I'm so happy it's re-opened with staff I'm familiar with! I know the drinks will be absolutely delicious and it's in the perfect location to have a few and walk around downtown. I can't wait to head back one day and have a drink and snack while enjoying the best Asheville has to offer!
This is one of Asheville’s best. Great drinks, amazing and very knowledgeable bartenders. We look forward to going again and again. Had the Hot-Thai-Go cocktail (spicy and delicious) and a tasty glass of French Rosé recommended by the lovely Michelle. Such a vibe! Thank you Soveriegn 🫶
