Pack's Tavern

Came for dinner on a weekday and it wasn’t that busy so we got seated promptly. Our waiter was helpful and attentive. They have a lot of food options so I ordered Buck’s double burger with fries. It was good! The food portion was great. Glad they didn’t took a long time to prepare it. I didn’t order any beer or cocktail this time maybe next time I will come back to visit. I really enjoyed the atmosphere, it’s family friendly. It was my first time visiting this restaurant in Asheville.

This was my first time in Asheville and after a 7-hour drive I was pleasantly surprised with some really good food that made the entire drive worth it! The hotel staff recommended that I give this place a try and it was simply amazing! I started with the deviled eggs and the flavor today was Caesar salad and they were to die for. I also had an old fashioned that came with a brown sugar rim. I would highly recommend that you try this drink. For my entree I got the bison meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy. The meatloaf was absolutely phenomenal, and I'm sorry Grandma but they just cooked you out of the kitchen! I also have to mention the gravy on the potatoes as it was pretty amazing also. So good that I would actually eat this gravy off the floor. I will definitely be back before I leave for home to try something else off the menu.

Pack’s Tavern is a historic building with great atmosphere in a fun part of town. On the south side down the steps they have lots of TVs with most the games on you want to watch. Great selection of libations and can’t go wrong on their starters. The Elotee corn dip is absolutely delicious. I could have ate another one or should have used that as my side. Their sides could use some work and creativity but still a 4 star spot.

When you have the confidence to serve your brisket with a spoon, you KNOW what you're serving and how you're serving it. This was our first meal upon arriving in Ashville. Pack's has the location, the atmosphere, and the food. They have an almost unfair advantage, but they are at least utilizing it to the fullest. I had the brisket mac, I spent most of my time just salivating with it in my mouth with a stupid grin on my face. My wife had a burger, she asked for medium well and she got medium well. The outdoor dining space was just as exciting as the indoor space. The host private events, they have a stone pizza oven, and the drinks were also top notch. My compliments to the chef. They also serve a house made Root Beer, weirdly enough I am a fan of custom brewed root beers and cream sodas and this one wasn't half bad, on the sweet side. The service is the only thing that could use some honing. The server staff was completely average. Hospitable enough, just nothing to brag about. We had two meals here over our 5 days, and the server forgot to put in my appetizer, they opted to let me have it with my dinner or cancel it. They made little effort to rectify the mistake, the only notable part of the experience was that I didn't find out about the mistake until roughly a minute before my actual meal arrived. Overall still a great experience and worth a visit if you are in the area.

Not a bad spot for happy hour. Great service and pretty nice interior. Very casual and comfortable after a long day of traveling and exploring for us. Loved the Mexican corn dip and the deviled eggs. Sounds like they have weekly specials with their deviled eggs and this week was a green eggs and ham theme. They were phenomenal. Would one hundred percent recommend going just for those honestly. Now for my standard comments. The location is clean and we were comfortable with the indoor seating options.

We sat outside in July Overlooking the fountain with a beautiful breeze for lunch. Hubs had the pineapple pizza and I have the half Ruben with a Ceasars salad. Everything was on point. Flavorful and perfect portions. We added a side of fries which were amazing. He had a IPA beer that was citric in flavor, while I tried the special margarita - Excellent on both counts. Waitress was attentive but not hovering. Well done.
