    A bar that allows you to play unlimited games while you drink! How fun is that? And an awesome bartender, Collin:). I had the Pebbles & Bamm Bamm complete with a fruity pebbles rice krispy treat! It was an awesome cocktail:) Several drafts on tap, which is awesome! And they will soon have a bowling alley as well!!

    Amazing time. Great food drinks with a stellar ambiance. Service was good. It was kind of slow but then again it was mid week.

Every corner is styled like its own unique vintage living room, with incredible attention paid to every single design element. Definitely take a lap around the entire space to soak in the full vibe! Do yourself a favor and check out their merch while you're at it; it's top-notch. The bar staff was incredibly welcoming and mixed up some phenomenal drinks. Both "The Death Becomes Her" and "He Likes To Call Me Peaches" were fantastic. They also have a massive events area and were promoting a ton of cool stuff--including a live dating show where people pitch their friends to potential dates! This was my first visit, but it certainly won't be my last.

    This cocktail bar is a MUST on an Asheville trip. I wish we had this in my city! I absolutely loved…read moreDayTrip. The vibes are incredible. There is a free parking lot in the back. There is tons of seating indoors and a cute backyard feeling outdoor patio. Even though it's a huge space, it's extremely intimate. The 70s living room decor is so cute. I came here with two friends, but it's also awesome for bigger groups. They have an amazing menu of signature cocktails and mocktails. We were there on an evening they were celebrating a bday with Hail Mary. They seem to have a lot of cool local events. The bartenders were amazing! They were beyond friendly and just so down to earth. We went straight to the indoor bar when we arrived and were served almost immediately. I want to plan another trip to AVL soon just so I can spend more time at DayTrip.

The lounge and music paired with desserts and wine is such a niche and fun vibe! I love the weekly features - especially Monday fixed menu of desserts with a shot of espresso or wine! The blueberry mint ice cream deserves a cult following! It's made with REAL mint and the color is amazing. The truffle balls are both delicious and serves as a charity (sine profit donated to local charity). The cream puff is light but packed with flavor! The late hours draws in a large crowd!!

For dessert, I highly recommend the ice cream brûlée; it was incredibly delicious and unique. The only minor drawback for me was the cocktail selection, which is limited to just a couple of drinks and a few spritzers. However, they do have a decent wine menu with several great aromatic wine offerings. Because it's a intimate venue with limited seating, you might encounter a wait. We arrived early in the evening, and by the time we left, a line was already starting to form!.
