Lunch here was terrific. I had a Turkey sandwich that was divine, and a homemade chocolate shake that was heavenly. My waitress was personable and friendly. The decor is a 50's diner look and there is a gift shop attached to the seating area where you can find local wares, T shirts, and other clothing. The sandwich was a bit pricey, especially since it only came with potato chips, but I really enjoyed the meal.

Kiwi Gelato

Reviewed By Levannah - Hendersonville, North Carolina

On a hot summer evening, a cold icy treat sounded good so we headed to Brevard for a gelato fix. Kiwi Gelato has a cold case full of the standard flavors as well as many imaginative creations. You may have trouble choosing, so ask for a taste. We chose fresh peach which was outstanding. On the evening we visited Kiwi, there was a steady stream of gelato lovers coming and going. Kiwi offers offers several sizes. We found that even the regular size was too much. I noticed the espresso menu with many standard espresso drinks as well as several interesting creative flavors. And affogato! Outstanding quality gelato in the North Carolina mountains courtesy of a transplanted New Zealander. Head to Brevard and look for the kids of all ages sitting in sidewalk adirondack chairs with smiles on their faces.

Right on the campus of Brevard College, this little coffee shop is almost a daily for me. I walk my dog down, we sit outside and listen to a book our read the local paper and have a great cup of coffee. The staff are all so very nice. Every once in a while I have a muffin or a bagel but mostly just great coffee

The Falls Landing

A downtown Brevard, NC restaurant since 1993. Delicious food, comfortable atmosphere, and great service are all part of The Falls Landing experience.

Reviewed By uniquepartofparadise - Waltham, Massachusetts

We had a snapper and the fish and chips - both were good. But the one piece of old bread each; the tomato sauce in a plastic cup and the French fries, that are not chips left me wondering where they felt they were competing in the Brevard market.

Downtown Chocolates

Reviewed By CJinFL - Vero Beach, Florida

This little place is tucked in an alley and definitely worth the search. We happened to discover it one afternoon when we were passing through Brevard. Their chocolates are handmade, and they have a nice variety of white, milk, and dark chocolates. The pecan caramel chocolate truffle I chose made my day, and my husband was equally pleased with his assorted selections. The friendly, patient staff can answer your questions and won't hurry you. We'll definite return the next time we drive through Brevard!

I will drive from Greenville, SC, back to Brevard just to eat here again. Inventive menu, beautifully executed. Generous portions. Chef+staff visit to Thailand well worth it.

Mayberry's

Just opened Apr. 8, 2010.

Reviewed By Barrymore54 - Brevard, North Carolina

You can’t go wrong with Mayberry’s for a delicious lunch. Order and pay at the counter, grab a beverage, and in no time at all the staff will bring your order to you. My favorite is the soup/sandwich combination of the cheesy potato soup and gingered chicken sandwich. And be sure to leave room for one of their cream cheese brownies. This place is a slice of downtown Brevard at its best.

Wine Down on Main

Our goal at Wine Down is to provide the most relaxing environment that we can, while offering over 40 by the glass pours of wine, price range between $6 - $32 a glass. We also offer everything by the bottle. We serve craft beers in bottles and cans with a cold glass and for those who don&apos;t drink we have a wide range of sodas, tea, coffee and hot tea. Our food is designed to compliment the wine. We have kept everything as simple as possible.

Reviewed By Lilian_and_Duane - Pisgah Forest NC

Awesome Food!! Had the adult grilled cheese panini with bacon jam and it was fantastic. The best grilled cheese I have ever eaten. The service was fast and the food was well cooked and hot when it got to our table. My wife had the prosciutto panini and it was great as well. They had a lot of different wines, but we chose a couple of the microbrewery beers and they were great. Will definitely be going back here again.
