"Now that the Café is open on Main Street, music and poetry can present themselves as weekly commodities." - Ian Bryan, April 26, 2003

Just ten minutes north of Asheville in the heart of the ridge top town of Weaverville, Well-Bred Bakery and Café offers unexpected delights both sweet and savory. Gourmet pastries, artisan breads, fine gourmet foods and shade-grown, organic coffees beckon every eclectic taste.

Open year-round from early morning to late evening, Well-Bred recreates the style and charm of an old world bakery in a historic building that once served as the town drugstore. Locals who congregated there as youngsters tell tales of lingering over sodas to hear the latest news. Today, the bakery & café serves this small mountain community in much the same fashion, with espresso and the New York Times updating the old traditions.

Stroll up Main Street in either direction and linger in the small galleries, unique shops and pottery studios, then rest in the comfortable environs of the café and savor the aroma of fresh baked bread and the ever-new gourmet food creations of our own Chef Amy. Guests are often overwhelmed by the array of fine pastry, baked goods and savory dishes, so bring your appetite and a spirit of indulgence!
