BattleCat Coffee Bar — Restaurant in Asheville

Appreciate they are still open (8am-2pm) during the pandemic 🙏🏾 They are taking exemplary measures to make sure staff and customers are safe by cleaning everything thoroughly and no contact with debit cards or personal mugs 👍🏾.

I came by desperate for caffeine and was greeted with a friendly smile and positive attitude despite what’s going on outside- very appreciated to be in that energy! I got a yummy slice of banana bread with my delicious rose and lavender latte. The bread was super soft and fresh and the latte was drinkable right away which I LOVED.

Dropped in for coffee for the road when heading from Asheville back to Raleigh. We have visited BattleCat before and really loved it. This is our first visit since COVID redefined restaurant/coffee shop/bar operations. BattleCat has handled this transition well and has created a safe, socially distanced environment while retaining its fun, funky charm. Guests wait for their order in a nice, large open space filled with art from a local collective or guests can wait on the welcoming porch or exterior seating area. Had the Brown Butter latte; one of their seasonal offerings. It was fantastic. I don't generally do flavored coffees because they can be too sweet but this was so well balanced retaining a bit of saltiness and the nuttiness you expect from browned butter. My daughter got homemade yerba mate while my husband had an iced mocha that he said was equally great. A super find in...
