The Local Joint

11 Best North Carolina Diners | Eater Carolinas

"It’s a good rule of thumb that when there’s not much else around, a local diner will be the heart of a small town’s culinary scene. The Local Joint, located on the outskirts of Asheville in Fairview, is packed daily with regulars who come hungry for breakfast, lunch, and dinner dishes. Don’t be fooled by the connecting gas station: the Local Joint’s ambiance is tastefully modern, with all the comfort of a proper Southern diner. The menu is reflective of that, ranging from fluffy biscuits smothered in homemade gravy to vegetarian and gluten-free dishes." - Sara Akhavan
