Farm-to-table comfort food with organic produce & garden
"The lines at this brunch spot are absurd, but Sunny Point’s garden courtyard and picnic tables turn the wait into an event of its own. Occupy yourself with generously-poured mimosas and baked goods like scones, biscuits, and muffins. By the time you’re seated, we can’t promise you’ll be the same person you were when you arrived, but Southern farm-to-table staples like the red-eye gravy benedict, carrot hotcakes, and fried green tomato sandwich will make you new again. If you simply aren’t willing to wait, you can also snag coffee and pastries from the on-site bakery Rabbit Hole." - laura hackett
"A popular local cafe known for shrimp and grits among its Southern-leaning offerings." - Gina Smith
"A West Asheville comfort food institution, Sunny Point serves breakfast all day along with lunch and dinner options, sourcing seasonal ingredients from its on-site production garden. It’s worth the unavoidable wait on weekend mornings for a crack at the sausage and cheese-stuffed French toast, carrot hotcakes, or locally lauded shrimp and grits. Dishes can be paired with anything from espresso to sweet tea to cocktails. Guests can wait for their table next door in the restaurant’s Rabbit Hole bakery and coffee shop before dining indoors or on the covered patio near the restaurant’s expansive, flower-filled garden." - Gina Smith
"Identified as a neighborhood favorite that has its lights on again and is serving the community post-storm." - Kay West
"Beloved by tourists and locals alike, this West Asheville staple is as renowned for the long lines that frequently snake around the building as it is for its garden-to-table Southern fare like shrimp and grits and fried green tomatoes. Drenched in rich citrus and blue hues, its covered, dog-friendly patio space features colorful murals from local artist Gus Cutty, twinkly lights, and containers of fresh herbs for a refreshing, laid-back vibe. Depending on the buzz you’re after, the coffee and mimosas are the best way to wash down huevos rancheros, stuffed French toast, and those perfect biscuits. Pro tip: while you wait for a table, be sure to meander through its half-acre, on-site garden, which the restaurant sources for its specials." - Brook Bolen
