Jack of the Wood

"On Sunday at 1:00pm stop and listen to a live Bluegrass band. They are wonderfully talented. Service is excellent and the brunch menu is full of delicious choices. We will return"

"Great Irish Pub in downtown Asheville. Enjoy live music, especially traditional Irish folk music on Sunday afternoons! Oh and they have delicious Ruben sandwiches too."

"We were in Asheville for the evening and picked this place to go get some dinner. To our surprise there was actually live music playing that night. The band itself was great! The service was amazing! Very friendly and fun. The food was also fantastic. Overall just a really fun environment and a great spot to have some dinner and a drink and have a fun night!"

"Loved the vibe here on a Friday night. The band, the drinks and the service were great. However, I did not quite enjoy the Jack's Veggie Burger as it was dry and had a weird taste as compared to the many veggie burgers that I have tried over time at different restaurants. Moreover, the $10 cover fee per person was a bit too much."

"Add a 5 Star for the Music! Great location to sit back and listen to old-school country and bluegrass music. This is a must stop when there is a musician to experience the "Appalachian Hillbilly Music". We sat for the early performance from 4pm to 6pm but another begins at 9pm. Both my wife and I had shared the homemade Pretzel Knots that were great. The only problem was it only had 3 which meant 1.5 each. I could have ate at least 5 myself they were that good. They came topped with a melted garlic butter on the top and a side of cheese sauce. Both were very good, and in fact, my wife kept the leftover cheese sauce for her Patty Melt. We both had a Patry Melt on Rye that was perfect. The Rye was grilled to a slightly crispy perfection. The burger was very good...it was a great change for the typical burger. My wife said it was better than our hometown favorite diner. Trust me...that was the best compliment ever! However, the fries left a lot to be desired. They were real steak potatoes fries but simply were not very good and too large of a large portion. You can choose fries or chips with the Patty Melt...I recommend the chips. They have to be better. For drinks, my wife had the day's special which was a Moscow Mule and she said it was good but not the best she has ever had. I had a house special mixed drink that was excellent! However, I can't remember the name. It was made with Whiskey, Bitters, Cinnamon and an orange slice. It was very similar to an Old Fashion. I highly recommend if you like Cinnamon."
