Battery Park Book Exchange & Champagne Bar

Breathtaking, Magnificent Experience. 😍😍😍 I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. You can either read or head to the bar. Wine & Books, your heart’s best friends. ❤️

This place is so cool, with all of the books to browse and/or purchase while being able to enjoy some wine and hang out. The string trio playing the night we were there was a super nice touch. Wish we could have hung out longer, but we had a dinner reservation to get to. If I ever get back to Asheville this place will definitely be on my list for a revisit.

The atmosphere and used book collection here is amazing. It’s a great place to grab a coffee or sit and have some hot tea.

It does have more of a “nicer” feel if you enjoy things like charcuterie, baguettes, honey, and champagne when it comes to the food selection and that personally isn’t my style which is why I rated it 4 in food. But atmosphere makes up for it!

We absolutely love this place both for its amazing selection of books and the champagne flights. This is a charming and lovely place to go. You will need reservations if you plan to do the champagne flakes or tea and scones it fills up very quickly. I definitely recommend this as I do not miss. In fact, I took my bridesmaids there for a bridal party prior to my wedding, and everyone was enamored!

Don’t come to Asheville without visiting Battery Park Book Exchange! Easily one of my favorite spots on our trip here. They had an excellent selection of used (and new) books and who doesn’t love the chance to walk around a book store with a glass of champagne in hand? You need reservations to sit at one of the various couch/table areas but the Gatsby bar upstairs has extra seating for all. The staff was also very helpful in pointing out books and genres that I was looking for as the place is quite expansive.
