10 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Mars Hill

“This place is a hidden gem. Great home-style food, a really nice atmosphere, and genuinely friendly people all around. Our waitress was awesome, and even the other customers made it feel welcoming.

I’d easily drive an hour and a half to eat here again. Highly recommend“

“The Original Papa Nicks won our hearts decades ago. During their hiatus, we starved, craving their delicious fare! We could not be happier when we found out they had reopened and even more so when they expanded! 👏❤❤❤“

“awesome place! great food ! good service! go and be happy! :)“

“Great food, service, & beer selection! The fried pepperoni & cheese curds were delicious. My wife liked the firecracker shrimp Alfredo, but said it had some spice. The Greek platter was amazing as well. I got the combination to try both the lamb & chicken. The chicken tasted like souvlaki & was good, but I favored the lamb. I typically would order an old fashioned, but they did not have large blocks of ice. Given what Helene’s impact on western NC, I was happy to see this restaurant thriving & folks in good spirit. This place is a gem for the community, and I highly recommend.“

“I really liked the vibe of this small town brewery. The layout is cool with the back deck looking out at the water. It’s wild to think what happened here just 1.5 years ago and glad to see.

The pizza was good and the garlic cheesy bread was really good. Pretzel left something to be desired - they really should blast it with more heat to soften it up. It didn’t tear, it crumbled.

Beers were good - I especially liked the red. Menu had a decent amount of options too. I definitely will come back when I’m up that way again“

“We were visiting family in the area and they took us to Soba. On the way back home to VA we couldnt stop talking about how great the sushi was. Our waitress Bee was also amazing. We can’t wait for our next visit to go back!“

“The food and service is amazing. The best around.“

“Excellent! Off the beaten path in a small (the best kind) beautiful WNC mountain town. It is out of the way for us so we can't get there as often as we would like.
The most enjoyable way to get there for us is via the Blue Ridge Parkway.
We enjoyed the one in Biltmore for years. Sadly, it is no longer there.
Thank you, Well-Bred Bakery & Cafe.

“We stopped here for breakfast at apx 11 am this morning, 07/07/23. We sat at the counter due to all seats being taken, busy place. Service was great, food was excellent, staff were all friendly and helpful and the camaraderie among them was easy and comfortable . The two 'grillmasters 'Bob' and ? sorry I forgot to ask her name ..were amazing to watch. 8 plates up and no tickets, mind boggling. Breakfast was an enjoyable experience. we will make this a regular stop on travels. The Priddy of Danville KY Five ⭐ ⭐ ⭐⭐ ⭐“

“One of the guys showing folk to their tables was very rude, yeah, you know who you are! Everyone else was great and food was good. If you show up before your party don't ask to get a table and for sure when the rude table guy says you have to wait don't ask him to explain. I've eaten there many times but I think I'll go somewhere else from now on. Maybe the guy just had a bad day, who knows. I know losing my limited business won't hurt them but I'd rather be somewhere appreciated.“
