Asheville is in North Carolina, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Asheville follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Started with a Gibson and The Secret Garden which were perfect. We shared the Premier champaign flight which was also good. The Phantom of the Burrata was lacking in taste. The wording in the menu steared us away from one of the charcuteries but someone got one next to us and it looked much better then the menu described it.

Such a fun, laid back atmosphere here. We only walked around perusing the books while waiting for a restaurant reservation nearby. Would definitely come back to sit and enjoy some drinks next time.

I mean really. It's a champagne bar. And a bookstore. What better combination could there possibly be? I love to come here and just sit and people watch and see the market that gets set up outside and drink delicious champagne and have nibbles. If this is something you haven't done yet in Asheville you really should. It's a very unique spot.

What a delightful find in the heart of downtown Asheville! Located in the historic Grove Arcade, the Battery Park Book Exhange & Champagne Bar is an eclectic, luxurious experience. A beautiful bookshop with rare editions winds through the shop with seating both downstairs and upstairs. Think Biltmore smoking room meets Edith Vanderbilt's bedroom. The Champagne bar has flights to enjoy along with an extensive wine list and coctail offerings. The menu for food is simple but thoughtful and intentional. I had the Goat Expectations sandwich and it was delicious. I loved sitting below the gorgeous vingtage lighting fixtures. The Charcuterie board is phenonemal. What a wonderful way to spend a Thursday afternoon or Saturday date. It's truly a destination!

We can not express how much we absolutely loved everything out our dinner. Our server, Emily, took care of us as if we were family. The food was fresh, delicious, and speedy. The music playing was the cherry on top. Ask for Emily if you want the best experience!
