Great place. The photo of the taps...times that by 2!! I appreciated theybadvertise their tap line servicer on their menu, because it ABSOLUTELY makes a difference! Cold beer, Great appetizers, their chicken hot honey sandwich is to die for. Staff was great and bathrooms super clean too.

Was in Ashville for one night and Packs was a suggestion from a friend. Cool old building near the firehouse. Wasn't too busy at 6 on a Thursday. We were quickly seated. Ordered quickly. Food came out hot and yummy. Wife had the fried green tomatoes. She liked them so much she didn't even offer me a bite. I had the BBQ burger with bacon, medium rare. Came out just right. Flavorful and juicy. Fries were hot and crispy. If this was a local joint for us, we would go often.

Loved the vibe in this place. Our waiter Jackie was super energetic and added to our enjoyment. Elote corn dip was amazing. Meatloaf was so tender. Just a great place with great food.

Food was delicious!! We had wings for an app, my husband had El Cubano & I had the pastrami Reuben, as well as some cocktails. Our waiter was amazing! Always checking on us & we had a great conversation! We will definitely be back!!

Great experience and great food. We had a short wait on a Saturday night but got seated quickly. Staff was nice, helpful, and efficient. The BBQ Brisket Mac & Cheese was absolutely phenomenal and the Bison Meatloaf was some of the best meatloaf I’ve had. Would definitely get both again. Would recommend, would definitely eat here again.

I don’t know where to begin.... I was here a decade ago and approached (unknowingly the GM) and asked if there was any chance we could see the entrance to the prohibition tunnel and he happily took me and my fiance and eagerly gave us a special tour. Tyler is a an amazing GM. You are luckily to have him Thank you Tyler for making us have such an incredible memory.

This place had a great vibe going on inside and dog welcome seating in the courtyard. The Mac and cheese with brisket was absolutely delicious and came recommended by other patrons. The pizzas were good. They had delicious bases and just the right amount of cheese. I’d go back in a heartbreak.

Enjoyed lunch on the patio, the elote dip is the best!! The food is so good but the service is even better! Alyss took great care of us, and Tyler gave us a tour of the place and knew so much history about the area. You can tell they really care about their customers, 10/10 recommend!
