“Here's all you need to know about my husband and my enthusiasm for Blue Ridge Pizza Company -- we moved our wedding back one week so they could cater it! My husband and I are wanderlusts from Michigan. We decided to have an intimate destination wedding outside of Harrisonburg, Virginia – 10 hours from our home – on the grounds of a historic bed and breakfast. Blue Ridge Pizza Company was one of the caterers recommended by our wedding planner. At first, we grappled with the idea of hiring a wood-fired pizza truck. Would it seem cheap? Would it feel too quirky or casual? Would our guests, who traveled many miles to join us, feel disappointed in pizza and salad for the grand occasion? Spoiler alert: Nope. Nothing could be farther from the truth! We visited BRPC's commissary kitchen in November 2021 – our one trip to Virginia before the actual wedding in October 2022. We spent an hour chatting with the wonderful owners, tasting their food, and letting our doubts fade away. Our favorite items from that tasting were the bacon-wrapped dates, the Cider Fest, and The Meats. BRPC's customer service is even better than its food. Hard to believe, we know! We worked with Justine and Melissa remotely from the initial inquiry to the big day. These ladies were a complete joy! They communicated frequently and thoroughly, answered countless questions, and worked seamlessly with our wedding planner, venue, and other vendors. We chose three appetizers, a charcuterie board, a wonderful salad ("The Charleston"), and four varieties of wood-fired pizza for our reception. We also utilized BRPC's bartending services. They worked with us on signature cocktails – making recommendations and suggestions we hadn't considered. Before the reception, we were delighted by the smells of food prep. The scent of premium, cooked meats wafted to us on the gentle breeze and gave us a preview of coming attractions. Unexpected bonus! Our guests loved BRPC's offerings, and we all ate until we couldn't eat anymore. Several guests commented that it was the pizza they'd ever had. The bartenders were wonderfully courteous, prompt, and energetic. One of my favorite memories from the reception was watching the bartenders bust a move behind the bar. Moments like that create big smiles and full hearts. I'm thankful BRPC was there to celebrate with us!“

“The Beer Geek tour was very informative and a great value. If you have 3 hours and want to get a behind the scene experience of the beer making process every step of the way from water and grains and ending with finished product in packaging, this is the tour for you. The tour guide Mary did a great job explaining the process and answering questions. Additionally, all the employees we encoutered along the way were very friendly and showed great pride in their company and the immaculate Mills River facility!“

“Absolutely amazing food and service! Beautiful atmosphere and wonderful staff. HIGHLY recommend! TOP NOTCH chef.“

“We had so much fun yesterday afternoon hanging out at Mary’s Burritos! The food was amazing! The topper was getting to sing karaoke with the owner!! We hope to come back soon.“

“Popped in w/o reservation on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated right away. Our server was knowledgeable and efficient. Though just opened from the devastation of Helene, the food was fresh and hot to the table with a very short wait. We both had samplers. one sausage and the other a schnitzel variety. The entree and sides were delicious. We lived in Germany for seven years and the food was spectacularly authentic, even down to the broetchen in the bread basket, crunchy on the outside and softly chewy inside. If you like real-deal German food, make a reservation today. Sehr gute geschmeckt!“

“Sooooo good!! very friendly“

“Oh my goodness, if you haven't tried the shrimp & grits you are missing out. Theirs is most definitely among the best, if not the best, I've ever eaten. And being a seafood lover, I've eaten a lot!😄“

“So proud of the new owners! They have kept the same wonderful menu, but are cleaning up the place. New paint job, flooring, music, etc. We hear that the ceiling is next, wow! Blue Sky is AWESOME �“

“ive tried several things while at the foosball tournaments every Saturday night! nachos are amazing! their smashburgers was so good!!!! their mozzarella sticks are HUGE!!!!! and so good!!!!!! but my #1 favorite thing is their fish and chips!!! oh my gosh, you get a good thick breading and its not "fishy" tasting! and the tartar sauce kinda reminded of a tartar ranch because the dill in it! its so good!!! 10 out of 10!“

“My dad and I eat at the diner at least twice a week. The food is always good. The wait staff is always good. We love this place! My only complaint is that one of the Owners is an Alabama fan, but their is no accounting for taste. GO GATORS! ?“

“I love coming here with friends. The atmosphere is incredible and the live music is always good. Drinks are affordable and they have food which is amazing. I definitely recommend checking this place out. This business really stepped up during Helene and it still continues to do so.“

“I love this restaurant and bar. We are patrons and every time we come in it’s a great experience. We love to talk to Brandon. The place is super cool and has two huge fig trees inside making it so special. The food is amazing I ordered the Hawaiian salmon wrap and my husband ordered the Jordan burger which were both delicious.“

“El Chapala has became one of my families local frequent must goes. The staff are very nice, super energized and no lie you get your food so so fast.. Speaking of the food. There isn't one thing from there that I have had that hasn't been amazingly delicious..“

“Family owned and operated. wonderful food, brews and entertainment. My sister and I are from NYS and heard about this place and went (this was, of course, pre-hurricane). Maddy made us feel so welcome! Loved it there. The vibe is great!“

“I just want to say that the woman who always takes my order is such a joy. She’s always nice and has great customer service skills!“

“Great omelets!! My fave place to eat.“

“Over the last 2 days I’ve tried all their beers except the IPAs. I’m just not a fan of IPAs.
All their beers were great, especially nice were the Mud Creek Milk Stout and the Brown Ale. The cherry Vanilla Milk Stout was good but a little too sweet for me.
First time I ever tried a sour or fruity beer and they, Rhubarb Strawberry Blonde and the Milk Shake Blueberry Mango sour, were both very good and not too sweet.
Friendly bartender and locals, good conversation. The second night was trivia, I didn’t do very well but it was fun.
I think the best thing about the place, though, is the owner lets RVs stay overnight. Because of this I was able to experience a couple of the local restaurants, the ones I enjoyed I left reviews on their sites.
Evan is really doing a community service letting RVs stay so they can experience more in Hendersonville than just one night at his brewery.“

“I might call it a really freakin' good pizza co. Even a great pizza company. Buy the size and get your pick of toppings. Service was friendly and pleasant. Pizza was ready right on time for pick-up as I walked in. Will definitely go again.“

“Amazing food and wonderful staff!! First time here and had a wonderful experience! Will definitely come here again and I give them 5 stars. 🥰“

“Great place, lots of great beer and great venue for music/bands rain or shine. They have a big stage outside and a smaller one inside. Dog friendly too. Try the Black Bear on tap, if you like darker beer that one is great. Saw the Trophy Husbands band play there and they were awesome! Don't miss! Pizza food truck that night was too pricy but still good.“

“The food was awesome - perfectly seasoned and expertly prepared. Our server was capable of handling our large group without difficulty. This is definitely a restaurant worth visiting again and again.“

“I’ve tried the Greek salad and pizza, delicious food and the atmosphere is nice!“

“We LOVE Mike's. They literally helped us set up an impromptu wedding after our plans kicked the bucket. The staff is always super nice, helpful, easy to talk to. Love that they're doggo friendly on their front patio area. Menu is tasty and reasonably priced, sundaes are legitimately the best ever (real fruit, yay!). Favorite diner for life!“

“Met a dear friend there to celebrate her birthday. She is a regular, I was not! The food was spectacular. The service was outstanding I could not ask for better.“

“Good burgers. Friendly staff. Nice place“

“First time here and was not at all disappointed! Great food and a variety of food to choose from. Win win…. Beers were cold and a good selection to choose from. Great relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely be back and spend more time enjoying the grounds….“

“Great cheap food. Best biscuit I've ever had at a restaurant.... Bacon was a bit salty but that is a matter of personal preference I'm sure. Other than that great biscuits, but the hash bites are not good. Still overall very great place for the price.“

They had plenty of sandwiches and bagels and other food items to choose from! You will not be disappointed in JB when you show up! I highly recommend them!“

“From the 1st trying, I got awesome dishes. I got egg drop soup and Singapore mein fun. OMG. I absolutely enjoyed having perfectly cooked noodle and soup. I can’t wait to try something new there again soon! Plus, I was glad they are real asians who are cooking my dishes when I glimpsed at kitchen.“

“Great place to have a pint. We’ve been in several times in the past few months and really enjoy the beer and laid back atmosphere. The bartenders are friendly and helpful and make sure you’re never waiting for another beer or for your check. Can’t wait for our next visit.“

“the staff is awesome and the food is delicious! my husband and I usually share a 3 item combo and we bring food home.. we thoroughly enjoy the staff from greetings to servers, the managers, even other patrons, you can't find a better place to eat seafood in this area.“

“Quick service, food is delicious, good sake options. The parking lot is either too small or it's not being watched for people parking and walking downtown Hendersonville. It was full and we were lucky someone was leaving so we could park. Been here twice though, once for lunch and once for dinner and enjoyed it.“

“BBQ Oysters ...Oh my sooooo good, we had to order a second plate of them! And our server was amazing.“
