Ivory Road Café & Kitchen

1st time here. The place looked interesting in a good way. Rustic. The atmosphere was cozy and the menu had some interesting menu selections. My wife opted for the lunch meal of Duck confit pot pie. It was awesome. I, instead opted for a breakfast plate. Can't remember the name, but it was jalapeño biscuits with baked eggs, some kind of ham gravy on the side. (See what I mean about interesting menu items?) Each plate came with either a fruit salad or a regular (nothing regular about it) salad. The presentations of our plates were divine and the taste was.. "we'll be back" good. Should have said great. Kat was an awesome server, she kept busy but didn't forget to check on us a bit. When she offered desert, we promised to make a return trip and save room. Sadly, we hadn't asked about the soup du jour but overheard it was tomato basil. (My fav) So, at this point in the review, it probably goes without saying, we'll definitely be back.

Food is very freshly prepared; nice Creative Flair to the food also. Service was excellent and it is in a older historic home so feels very quaint. The duck pot pie came with a small salad and was divine

Great food, and the staff are friendly and helpful. I am reducing the stars for one reason and one only. They have no clue about good coffee or how to make a proper cappuccino. They need to attend a Barrista course to learn more about coffee. So many times we have been there, and that has been the only thing we could complain about. Very weak and expensive for poor quality coffee. However, let me reiterate, we love the food, the location and the staff, but seriously please do something about your coffee so we can make this a 5 star review.

Everything I’ve had is so delicious. I love seeing what’s on the specials. I can come here every week and not get tired of it. Everything feels lovingly made and the homemade donuts on Saturday’s are awesome. There’s a cozy fireplace in the back room. Books around to read. A nice outdoor area. It just feels so cozy!

Fabulous cafe! From the vast menu selections to the daily specials, it's a MUST try!! I eat there weekly, either with my staff or clients, it's always great!

FANTASTIC! 10/10 will come back! Hands down best skillet meal I have ever had. Small business that supports local, what more is there to say? Love everything about the Ivory Road Café and Kitchen <3

Went for high tea and wouldn’t recommend it. It tasted like we had leftover finger sandwiches and macaroons from last weekend’s tea that didn’t sell. Best part was the scones, those were tasty. The staff was pleasant and the place was cute. Maybe the lunch and dinner food is better.

Nothing beats the Ivory Road experience! Delicious food and coffee, great service, and you won’t find a cozier cabin vibe in AVL. Absolute must-try if you are in the area!

I got the avocado toast with salmon for $9.50. It was tasty but I was super disappointed in the ratio of toast to toppings, especially the avocado which seemed like it was treated like a commodity more precious than gold with a light smear instead of slices or a thick layer.

This would have been a 5 Star review if my meal has been more balanced toppings wise or maybe a lot cheaper, $9.50 would have been excepted in Manhattan but not the middle of nowhere on Brevard Road Asheville.

Ivory Road Cafe was the venue for my bridal shower, and they also catered the appetizers for my wedding. First, it was the perfect setting for my bridal shower. Jill and her team helped it run smoothly, and the food was SO GOOD!! For my wedding, Jill delivered fruit skewers, deviled eggs, appetizer plates and napkins. She arrived on time and these apps tasted delicious. It was the perfect thing to snack on after my hubby and I tied the knot!
