12 Best Sports Bars in Asheville

“My friends and I were visiting from Charlotte and this is somewhere I wish was next to my house. West (the owner) is a super nice guy and has curated a golf/game lounge that reminds me of the days you’d spend in the basement as a kid. So many well taken care of games and activities, we just had a blast.“

“Awesome vibe. Great service. Super friendly staff lead by amazing ownership who is active and engaged in the operation. Elevated pub fare, generous portions, fun food and really quality ingredients. Glad we came upon this place in Asheville to watch some football on a Sunday. Looking forward to a return visit in the future next time I'm in town!!“

“I'm not soccer obsessed (yet) but love the atmosphere and energy of this pub. Friendly staff. Good food and drinks. Penny Cup Coffee too!“

“This place was great! The burger and fries were delicious. The atmosphere was laid back and comfortable. We also had great service on what seemed to be a pretty busy night.“

“We had a group event at Asheville Sports Club last evening. I would estimate that there were close to 250 people who came. The manager, Morgan, and the staff did an amazing job. Everyone was extremely friendly. the service was impeccable, and every comment that I received from the attendees was positive. We could not have been happier. A HUGE THANK YOU!“

“We spent our 25th anniversary at The Restoration Hotel and were thrilled to find The Draftsman a short elevator ride away. A fun menu of bar basics made fresh and all the free games make this spot a great place to gather for a date or GNO/BNO. When they have live music - it’s even more fun!!“

“I always have awesome time and experience at Bier Garden. It’s my How I met your mother” restaurant bar. There always creative with DJs in the past on weekends way back and make this my first go.“

“Just moved to the area and looking for a great watering hole that’s a well loved and cherished dive and definitely found it. Everyone was so friendly, the vibe was perfect, and I felt welcomed right into the family. Excited to call this my spot!“

“I love this place!! best wings in town. always good daily specials and they happen to have great substitutions for vegetarians...you can sub tofu and tempeh for proteins. huge selection of drafts and beers, and even several delta-9 drinks. pool tables upstairs are free, along with darts. you can rent that upstairs space for private parties. off site catering is also available. And...plenty of parking!!! highly recommend!“

“We had stopped by couple weeks ago just to take have a draft beer and take a look. We had a peek at the menu and liked what we saw so we decided to return to try it out. We returned a few days ago and found out that food service began at 4:00 so we returned the next day. We had heard that the cheese steak was excellent and it was! We had them add lettuce and tomato to the sandwich and added an order of fries. The meat is thin sliced ribeye that was juicy and delicious and the bun was perfect. The fries were also excellent - hot and crispy fresh cut fries the way they are supposed to be. We will be returning soon to sample other menu items.“

“We had a great experience at Hickory Tavern, and our waitress was the highlight of our visit! She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. We really appreciated the care she put into making sure we had an enjoyable evening. Great service makes all the difference, and she deserves recognition for hers. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Our server Krystal was beyond amazing! Everything with them was wonderful, the table near us was such a Karen towards them was complaining about something out of the servers control and was very rude to our server saying she wasn’t gonna eat it but it’s whatever she’ll feed it to her dogs! That’s just a little of what this customer was doing they were outrageous! But our server was beyond wonderful and I hope they never have to interact with that person again! Keep up the good work Krystal!“
