Back in September of 2006, Ole & Elena Delatorre along with their 3 sons, Abraham, Alfredo and Daniel started renovating and old building that would become the family business. After 5 months of hard work it opened its doors to the public and was successful from day one. Thanks to the people of Black Mountain and all the visitors the business grew and expanded to a larger location in the same vicinity. Hard work, team work and dedication paid off.

It feels these days that we are in a constant state of hurry. Almost every facet of our culture has an expedited version of it. We can buy shoes online and they arrive next day. Download a book instantaneously. Bills can be viewed and paid (or ignored) with the click of a button. Order a cheeseburger from a person on the other side of a machine and it’s ready in under two minutes (if the line is short enough). There are few aspects of our lives that have been untouched by this ever-present supply of immediate gratification.

So it is no great mystery that BBQ, the ritual of cooking with fire and smoke, is such a highly sought-after prize. It is the driving source of endless competitions, timeless arguments over what is right and what is wrong, and innumerable quests to find the “very best version.” It is a simple matter, putting a metal box or grate over some fire and letting smoke do its work. But there is more to bbq than just cooking meat. Wherever one finds it, behind that pulled pork, sliced brisket, and blistered sausages is a preparation that requires time, patience, and a tremendous amount of love. BBQ is untouched by the hurry of the world. Since the discovery of fire from our ancestors on down, very little has been touched and, as is the case with the best of it, the tradition has not been touched at all. What was once necessity has become the ultimate luxury. One can sit down at a bar or outside a shack or in their very own homes and enjoy a feast that took half a day to cook, a week to prepare, and a millennium to perfect.

Combining fire and smoke with the very best ingredients the vast American landscape has to offer is time well spent. We believe that true hospitality begins with inviting strangers to sit around a fire, true cooking requires love, and the truest and very best things in life are still worth waiting for.

115 Black Mountain Ave, Black Mountain, NC 28711, USA

A restaurant inside a house?  Yes! We are located inside a charming old house that was built in 1904. We have kept everything original to the house as much as possible, which means our space is very unique and smaller than most restaurants you’ve probably been to – our kitchen is smaller than most residential kitchens! With such limited space, we run things a bit differently to be sure that you have a great time here! We are counter-service with waitstaff, so you order and pay at the counter BEFORE finding a table where we will serve you! Having everyone order and pay first means that our limited number of tables are not held up waiting for orders to be taken or checks to be brought out, so even if we are very busy, there WILL be a table available by the time you have ordered. Operating this way, it is very rare that we should ever have to wait for a table to open. For this reason we ask that you please do not reserve tables while the rest of your party is in line.

While not all the sisters work at the bakery, our sisters inspire us! The employees you will meet at the bakery may not all be biological sisters, but we are all adopted sisters in this life – as we like to say.

bush farmhouse.jpg
151 S Ridgeway Ave, Black Mountain, NC 28711, USA

The Bush Farmhouse plays hopscotch with South African flavors, cuisine and drink. So what exactly is that? Well, like America, South Africa is a nation of immigrants. Europeans borrowed from, blended with local African cuisines, and vice versa. It’s glorious, flavorful cooking – made for lively tables, sharing and good cheer.

Chef and owner Mark Henegan has been in the restaurant industry for over 30 years. From his time at Il Buco in New York City he went on to open Madiba in Brooklyn in 1999 and then Madiba at MIST in Harlem in 2014. He has called North Carolina home since the early 2000s and have now created The Bush Farmhouse, his latest concept in South African inspired eating.

The Bush Marketplace…From house made sauces to local curiosities and fresh farm greens & vegetables, The Bush Farmhouse market highlights the best of Black Mountain and surrounds.  The market is open daily and the Farmer’s market every second Saturday of the month.

lookout brewing company.jpeg
103 S Ridgeway Ave, Black Mountain, NC 28711, USA

From our humble beginnings in 2012 as beer lovers with a home brew setup, some mason jars, and a lot of zany friends, a culture of absolute foolery and serious chillness grew. These days, we brew for fun and we brew for our community, and along the way we end up producing totally outstanding craft beer that we’re proud to share with you.

We are Nano brewers having fun and making great beers – one small batch at a time.

Small batch craft brews made with love here on the front porch of Western North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains. Our little city in the clouds expects a lot out of our beer. In order to make sure we produce the best, we constantly experiment and explore new styles and perspectives. With creativity and tradition combined, we are working to bring you the tastes of a finely honed craft.

Japanese street food and Astro and bubble teaBlack Mountain, NC

konnichiwa was born of a desire to bring customers a taste of modern-day Japanese street food. We want people to think outside the bento box, try cultural favorites that are being served at the hottest corner spots in Tokyo. Or, make your meal the way you want it, using the Creation Station format to construct a custom dish of your liking. You can look forward to a continuously expanding menu along with limited time specials that will allow us to flex our culinary muscles.

In addition to serving our Japanese street cuisine we would also like to introduce Astro Tea, our full-service bubble tea bar with an astronomical number of flavor combinations and mixtures.

Konnichiwa, ko-n-ni-chi-wa
こんばんは :
is used as a greeting in Japanese, meaning hello or good afternoon. So, “konnichiwa” Black Mountain!

black mountain kitchen and ale house.png
117 Cherry Street, Black Mountain, NC, USA

We think the world is a better place with wings, a burger cooked to the right temperature, and a sandwich with house-made “anything they can think of” in it. Yes, the salads are good too. But it’s all about the rejuvenation of creativity and the soothing comfort that food provides when it’s made with the best intentions.

It was 2010, and the bar where I worked in Black Mountain was closing. The hardest part about it was not that I was losing a job; it was that I was losing my community gathering spot. My belief is that, above all else, community is what gives humans a sense of belonging and well-being, which leads to a solid sense of self. Community is what makes us whole. An important concept in urban design is what is known as the “Third Place.” Healthy communities are composed of First, Second, and Third Places. The First Place is your home — where you lay your head at night. The Second Place is your workplace — where you do the things you do. And the Third Place is where you form connections with others — where you can express your dreams, your thoughts, and your ideas with like-minded people. It is an anchoring spot for the community. For communities to be strong and healthy, the Third Place is vital.

Third Places are where people go because they know they will feel a sense of connection. In 2010, I was losing my Third Place. And I said to myself, “Well, if my community is losing a gathering place, I’m going to bring it back.” The Black Mountain Ale House opened on Feb 4, 2011. It was a bar built around community.

That community remains at the forefront. We have continued to grow around it, literally and figuratively, bringing in a larger kitchen and introducing a stronger variety of food offerings. Now renamed Black Mountain Kitchen + Ale House, we are a restaurant and bar — built around community.

The key ingredient to the menu is the table; not necessarily what’s on the plate. That’s why “kitchen” is such a fundamental word. The kitchen is the place that produces food to feed the body and delight the senses. The company is the reason for the kitchen in the first place.

Our guiding philosophy remains the same as it was back in February 2011: to provide a sense of community and belonging to every person who walks through the door. Some of the most meaningful life experiences happen in a conversation over a pint of beer or around a table breaking bread with others. Whether you’re having a beer with a friend or celebrating a special experience, or you’re here by yourself just to sit at the bar and be part of a community, we want you to feel like you’ve found your Third Place.

mac burgers.jpg
104 West St, Black Mountain, NC 28711, USA

Mac’s Burgers and Cheesesteaks is about serving delicious and fresh, hand-made burgers, freshly grilled cheesesteaks with delicious sides.

Just about everyone loves a burger, but what makes a truly great burger is subjective. Some people prefer a classic griddled thin patty, others settle for nothing less than a gourmet cheeseburger on brioche. We take the stand that no one’s wrong in this fight — at Mac’s you find generous handcrafted hamburgers and cheeseburgers that come in any number of combinations, including the Mac Burger topped with chili, cheese and slaw.

cousins cuban cafe.jpg
108 Broadway Ave, Black Mountain, NC 28711, USA

Cousins Cuban Cafe serves authentic Cuban cuisine and coffee to the Black Mountain community and all those that visit our beautiful town. We welcome all to experience a taste of what Cuban culture is all about–flavorful dishes, strong coffee, great conversations and where friends become part of our family. Bienvendios!

Our parents were born and raised in Cuba and unfortunately had to flee their beautiful homeland in 1960 when Castro’s communist regime came into power. They instilled in us their love for their Cuban culture and all that it encompassed–food, music, history, family.

As cousins, we grew up together in Miami, Florida enjoying our Cuban heritage. Destiny brought us all to North Carolina along with our desire to share this delicious and deeply loved cuisine with you. We are using family recipes that have been passed down through many generations.

The Café is more than a business to us–it is a tribute to our family members that cherished their Cuban culture and taught us what family & love is all about.

2375 Old US Hwy 70, Swannanoa, NC 28778, USA

Okie Dokies Smokehouse is a good ole bbq and rib joint where you can still get a great home cooked meal without breaking the bank.
It all started back in 1999 when we began working out of a little red trailer serving bbq at local festivals, on the roadside, and for private parties.
Over the next eight years, we just kept growing and growing until we realized we needed something bigger than our little red trailer.
Maybe you’ve seen us at places like
Shindig on the Green, the Lake Eden Arts Festival, Downtown after 5 or one of the many other local festivals around town.
Maybe you saw us on WLOS News 13 Carolina Kitchen sharing some of our secrets!
Or maybe, you read how Citizen-Times correspondant Rick McDaniel said Okie Dokies has some of the best bbq and ribs you’ll find around these parts.
Our Swannanoa place is the talk of the town!
And our little red trailer is back on the road again in Candler and Burnsville with expansion in mind!
Wherever you see us, make sure you stop for some award winning bbq and say Hey!
Come on out to our place for some

Hatched as a grand idea between sets at a late night gig, musicians and former band mates Andy Gibbon and Josh Gibbs decided they should provide the Asheville area with truly delicious, locally roasted, organic coffee.

After rolling up their sleeves and hammering out a solid plan, they settled on the cozy, yet world-class town of Black Mountain, North Carolina as their base of operations. From their coffee bar/roasting facility set up in an incredibly inviting 1950’s craftsman style home, they are now making their coffee available to the world!

From obtaining our food products to hand-kneading dough, making bread daily and offering fresh food options, we focus on the ritual of taking life from the world around us and presenting it to you. This ritual of nourishment from farm to table is one that all Americans took part in until about 75 years ago.

To honor this tradition we follow a few simple rules as we prepare food for you. Whenever we can, we buy locally-grown, seasonal, organic produce and meats. We use farmers and farm cooperatives or family-run operations as our primary suppliers for our flowers, vegetables, fruits and herbs. We use feta and goat cheese from local creameries, brew Dynamite Roasting Company Coffee and carry local microbrews from around our region. We have a large garden that supplies us seasonally with fresh basil, edible flowers and herbs as well as greens, peppers, root vegetables and other produce. Every day we make homemade soups and breads for the day. You’ll also find homemade daily desserts from our FRESH chef’s and local confectioners’ creations. Each weekend we feature FRESH specials that highlight seasonal offerings from our local food purveyors and unique flavors of our chef’s culinary creativity.

At FRESH we offer an alternative to the processed food delivery system that has become the staple of the modern diet. Here, you will sit down to eat a meal together in the tradition of our parents and grandparents and taste the difference of food that is grown, artfully prepared and served by people who live right here and are part of our community.
