Ended up using the back of the booth for our water bottle and condiments and still struggled for space. Buffalo wings were good but not exactly Buffalo. No buttery spicy hot sauce. It was more peppery than buffalo. Wings were cooked perfectly though Reuben is excellent as are the jalapeno Mac bites. Cheese dip was also excellent but we (and the table next to us) had to ask for more chips. Not portioned terribly well. Beer options were very slim (2 on tap from what it gathered). I'm sure there were plenty of bottled options but draft was disappointing. We ordered the ale but they tapped out and brought us brown ale. At 5pm...only a brown and stout on tap. Overall, it was a pretty middling experience but the food was good and they offer a military appreciation discount.

We stopped by our first day for lunch and I ordered the classic Reuben and fries. Both were delicious I loved the fries so much. My husband ordered the bacon and pimento smash burger which was just as delicious! Day two I had a chicken sandwich and he ordered the Cuban. Day three we had the soft pretzels and cheese dip. Those were bomb! My favorite cocktail was the Italian Spritz. It was so light and just a nice refreshing drink for the afternoon. Service was average. Nothing terrible or great. You can tell they get pretty busy each day. What I really loved was all of the photos of dogs framed on the walls! It was fun to see all the different pups that had been added over the years

We ordered the "Say What" appetizer and the bacon jam honestly deserves to be bottled and sold on its own -- it was that good! The chicken wrap was also very tasty and full of flavor. Between the great food and excellent service, this is definitely a place worth stopping by if you're in the area. We will absolutely be back!

Don't go past the light, or you'll miss it. Suggested to us by a local, we nestled up to the bar surrounding by who else, locals. This turned from trying something new to an episode of Cheers super fast! We laughed, and conversed, and had a good time to the extent we were really juggling whether to stay the night. But back to Asheville we needed to go. If you're in Cherokee anytime soon, definitely carve out some time for this cool little spot. Good, well-made, bar food. Awesome tasting beers and seltzers on tap. We'll be back to see our friends here!

For my order, I went with the black and bleu burger with fries and a coke. My family also ordered a pizza, so I had that too. This took 25 minutes to come out. Taste-wise, the burger was delightful, the fries tasted great, my pizza was scrumptious, and you just can't go wrong with a Coca-Cola. Sue, our server, did great and was nice to us. I can definitely see myself coming back up here, thank you so much.

My husband raved about the lasagna and the chicken margarita pizza was yummy! I'd never had it with chicken on a margarita and was delighted with how good it was! I'd definitely try this again! The vibe was good!

Quaint Tavern, located just off Main, with an excellent selection of wine, beer, and specialty cocktails. Small with limited seating, make sure you get there early or be prepared to wait a bit. We ordered the divinity and a specialty old-fashioned to drink and both were as delicious as any cocktail we've ever had. The peach Caprese salad was a real standout, so fresh and really delicious. The Instagram worthy jalapeño popper burger was perfectly prepared and really juicy and delicious. The cucumber salad was spicy as advertised and delicious, I could've eaten an entire bowl of those cucumbers. My son had the 4th street burger and I swear he ate it like he never had anything more delicious. The service was excellent. The food was excellent and we will absolutely be back. Highly recommend the Highlands Tavern!

I came alone and sometimes as a solo female at a bar you feel uncomfortable but bartender made me feel welcome from the start. I ordered a Chicago beef sandwich. It was adequate...Mediocre.... When I think of a Chicago beef sandwich the first thing I think of is pepperoncini and/or au jus but it had neither. But it was decent, kind of like a thing you might grab & go on the road somewhere.... edible but you're not thinking about it afterwards. The sandwiches come with french fries but I got the Greek pasta salad instead. I should've got the french fries because I paid $2 up charge for weak pasta salad. But the reason I'm still giving it 4 stars was that it's a nice local bar. Clientele chatty. My bartender was very cool. I didn't get his name (young,blond, skater type) friendly, welcoming. If you're looking to have some drinks with friends and play pool, I think it's a perfect place, but have dinner first before you get here.
