Afterglow

A very cool curated space, decor, lighting, scent. I started with a cappucino, luscious creamy and the coffee flavor was rich .. from an Italian espresso drinker that is saying something! then I had the goat cheese pastry.. flaky and deliscious.. see pics.. followed by 5 min brew of remembrance tea. A tea woodsy, with notes of rosemary lovely warming.. The staff here really cares about the quality of what you are drinking. Christian is personable, polite, friendly, a breath of fresh air and he can make beautiful designs on your coffee foam! LOL. Thank you after/glow! PS: lots of seating.. outdoor/indoor

This is one of the coolest coffee shops in town by far!! I love the Asheville themed hotel by Hilton that the coffee shop is located inside. It has amazing vibes. They have a huge chandelier in the lobby with amazing AVL inspired artwork on the walls to view while you sip your coffee. Or you can sit on their luxury couches under the chandelier, or you can sit at the coffee countertop which turns into a bar at night which is neat. Or you can sit outside along the sidewalk over looking the mountainous beautiful river arts district. It is dog friendly and they even have treats and a water bowl for our furry friends! I got the salted cinnamon mocha, and the sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit. Natalia was our barista and she was very knowledgeable and kind. She handcrafted my drink to perfection. She stated that they have a pastry chef who makes all of their pastries from scratch and that all of their food items are from locally sourced ingredients from NC. The breakfast sandwich is huge!!!! And the biscuit wasn’t your typical biscuit, it was all natural and still just as delicious! And it’s enough for someone to split, which was nice because i just HAD to try my brothers goat cheese and roasted tomato croissant pocket which was very flaky and melt in your mouth. The best ever!!!! I hope they don’t ever get rid of those pockets ;) or this coffee shop!! Thanks!! See you again soon!

We’ve stopped by a couple of times. Once was for an iced coffee. We were so impressed that we came back for breakfast. We live nearby and will happily add Afterglow to our breakfast/coffee rotations. One of the best chocolate croissants. Iced coffee with homemade syrup is fab. Nice to grab smoothies too.

On of the most interesting places to DJ and listen to music, the lighting and projection projects were awesome to create. Definitely the best places to take pics.

Idk how I never found this place on google, y’all gotta bump up the marketing here because this place is awesome ! With the whole building combined with art all over and amazing drinks. We got to sit in different locations on the roof and inside and it’s very stylish!

What a beautiful place. Delicious coffee, great service

Love this place. Stopped in on a trip to Asheville while touring the arts district. The coffee was amazing, decor was comfy and sweet, and circa 2000 playlist nostalgic. Highly recommend.

Dang good cappuccino and great spot to hang out.
