Urban Orchard — Restaurant in Asheville

We hosted a wedding reception at Urban Orchard for about 70 of our friends and family from around the country. Josie and the team were incredibly helpful, from early planning all the way through the event. They were organized and responsive in planning, arranged all of the details with the caterer, sound system and stage for the DJ, and photo booth. They already had the place perfectly set up when we arrived. The event was amazing. This is a beautiful setting for a party and they offered an incredible variety of delicious local ciders, draft beers, wine, and cocktails (some of which they pre-mixed for us on special request).

The scorpion pepper cider is NOT for the faint of heart, but might be fun to get one on a flight for the group to try a...

My wife and I happened to spot this cidery as we were walking through the South Slope area of downtown Asheville. Boy were we happy to bump into this place! A great addition to the many breweries that this area is known for.

My wife is a huge fan of ciders. After trying the pick your own flight, she said this was one of the best cider experiences she has had. Sweet ciders, dry ciders, spicy ciders...you name it, they have it. In addition, they have a large assortment of beers as well for anyone who doesn't drink cider.

Vibrant and fun place with super friendly staff. Add in some comfy couches, tvs, shuffleboard, pool table and a ping pong table, and you have one fun spot all the way around! Dogs are welcome inside, which is a huge bonus to...
