    Vaden Landers
    Virginia F.

    Although I am a comehere to Asheville, I'm a comeherealot and have checked out most of the hotspots. Sly Grog was new to me. I am puzzled by North Carolina's seemingly random club membership thing, but hey, I'm can now add my membership to Sly Grog to my Bywater membership. I went here specifically to see Vaden Landers but was charmed by the fair drink prices, funky decor, and the bartender's dog. There were not a lot of people there, but there should have been because the music was great; it's dog friendly, and it's a fun spot with a pool table and other arcade games to entertain the whole family.

    I love this place because......drinks and toys

    Updated review**** I love Sly Grog. I have since the first time i visited. Some nights Kyle and I are the only patrons there which is nice because that gives us the whole space to lay on a couch or play games or do a puzzle. Sometimes like last night it is totally packed with live music. Also fun, eclectic groups of people tend to chill here. The bartender is really cool. Chats when you want to but leaves you be when you're just trying to chill. I love how mismatched and random everything is here. I love the toys, the games, the vintage decor. Really cool place.

    Friends Drew and Nadia hanging ou!

    It's pretty hard to standout in Asheville! Weird is our middle name! But Sly Grog manages to be SUPER weird in all the right ways. From the video games to the sofas, to the random memorabilia scattered around this place was fun! I'll go back for sure.

    Awesome low key bar with cool handed and couches!

    Playing music so loudly in their parking lot and going past the noise ordinance times. Kept me awake though I am several miles away.

    Great place to hang out, good people great music. Safe fun place that doesn't feel over hipster and not over pretentious.

    They maintain a weird Asheville vibe without being overly hipster or elitist.

    (This review is not about beer. We are huge beer nerds, but don't review beers because we know too…read moremany people in the business.) He Said: Excellent place to see a show! The staff is super-friendly, the space is comfortable, especially during their construction/renovations, and the sound is stellar. She Said: As He noted, this is a great place to see a band. Plenty of space to set up your chairs, lots of room to dance, and welcoming to all ages. And the town itself is great for hanging out between trips to Pisgah. We will definitely come back. Potty Points: With 0 being the worst port-a-potty ever and 5 being the best, the potties here score a 5. They're kept incredibly clean, and there are enough that even during a popular show there was never a wait!

    Total hippie vibe here and if that's your thing, that's cool. They dont do New England style IPA…read morebeers here at all and that's on purpose. That sucked for me since that's my favorite kind of craft beer. Free stickers are offered and they had maybe a dozen beers on tap at various prices. They do flights that vary in price based on your selection of beers. Tons of merch for sale. Seems like a really cool venue for music and the Saturday afternoon we were there they had a food truck out back. We found our bartender to be very friendly.
