"Absolutely love the atmosphere here, as well as the owner and staff. They are so incredibly nice and thoughtful. The shop itself is on the smaller side but it doesn’t feel constrained as there’s a lot of natural light and windows. They also have a lot of different plants and succulents. Most importantly, the coffee is great! They really care about the quality of the beans they use. The pour over is absolutely worth it. I also had one of their apple turnovers, which was so tasty."

"Cozy vibes, nice folks. Lots of plants! Amazing kava and coffee selection. Espresso is dialed in! Offers Eclectic Soul bakery which is by far the best vegan baking in WNC! All the drink options are plant-based vegan and taste incredible for everyone. Feel free to write poetry or doodle on the chalk bar. It’s a bit hit! The outdoor venue is nice too for musicians to play and events. Dog/ pet friendly if your animal is well-behaved around other pets!"

"Highly recommend!! Fantastic atmosphere. Staff is very welcoming and product served is fresh and yummy. They have an outdoor back stage that features local bands - so fun!! My new favorite place in Asheville! Good location and lot of parking."

"The best atmosphere in all of Asheville — hands down. The kavatenders here are absolutely amazing, and yes, they’re open 24/7! You can often catch the owner, V, with her vibrant, radiant energy — painting, tidying up, or just spreading good vibes to everyone who walks through the door. The love and peace in this place are real. Everyone is truly welcome at the ACK — it’s not just a spot, it’s a home for the soul. 🌿💫"

"If I could give 10 stars, I would, repeatedly! I'm in love w/ the owners & all the many new friends I instantly connected w/ there. It's a home away from home!! It's a hip friend's living room man-cave vibe, amazing everything/everyone & killer music, doggies (Hey Lil Bear! scratch scratch chin chin...) Ping pong table, huge outdoor area in the back, & more fun & diverse local characters & out of town dropins await! A 1000 % MUST VISIT while in AVL: chillax, hang out, imbibe, vegan chow, bring a drum or they have 1 for you if you don't!"
