Thirsty Monk South at Biltmore Park

In my opinion the best bar in the Asheville area. Specializing in prohibition era drink this baf has a smooth layed back atmosphere with freindly and knowledge service.

Love the Thirsty Monk!! Great beer and great people! What more do you want?

It was pretty good. Prices were decent. The best spicy mustard I have ever had.

The bartenders were fantastic and the food was excellent (elevated pub food). Everything was reasonably priced and timely. I would recommend Thirsty Monk to anyone with a pulse.

So it seems like people complain about the bartenders only taking care of the locals. I find that odd. I’m from Florida and come here every year when I come up for the holidays. So I’m the exact opposite of a local. I always get prompt friendly service. Just today I stopped in real quick to refill my bottles, took me less than 15 min. I think there might be a break down in how things work with first timers. You go up to the bar to order beer and food, then go sit down.
