In the days that I lived in Asheville, the C-Street was my go to place. Â Incredibly friendly staff, VERY reasonable prices on their booze, and pretty decent pub menu that ran until 1am. Â The bartenders engage you in conversation and really (at least appear to anyway) have a genuine interest in getting to know you once you've visited a few times. Â I've spent many a night in the C-Street pub, made life long friend in the pub and the grill (most of which I still keep in touch with today via facebook and when I make my way into town). Â It truly is as one person put it, the "Cheers" of Asheville. Â (Actually, I live in Boston, and C-Street actually beats the pants off of Cheers in Boston....but you get my point)
Review Source:The "Cheers" of Asheville. Â The bartenders couldn't be nicer which makes this a very comfortable place to grab a drink. Â The new decor is great. Â Love the exposed brick on the walls and the new TVs that are not too big and not too small. Â You can watch the game, but not feel like you are in a soulless sports bar.
Review Source:Charlotte Street Pub has been a drinking establishment I've been drinking in this bar since I was 16.....yes 16 years old....
Having gotten a false ID when I was in high school, I had a friend take me to this pub.......now when I was 21 I didn't look close to 21, so you can imagine what the doorman thought when I rolled in, but I actually went to the drivers license office with a birth certificate, so the ID was legit, though I wasn't. Â But I digress.......
This was "Steven's Pub" in my core drinking days and over the years has really only changed slightly since my early days drinking there.......now for the south that says something. Â Unlike the North and Midwest, we don't have neighborhood bars, particularly ones that survive for decades and decades.
I can still find tables I've carved mundane words and symbols into and sit in booths where I had a thousand conversations and probably close to as many beers.
Back when smoking was allowed here, it was almost unbearable, but now no smoking is the rule and it is a nice little place to have a drink, check out some locals and wonder about all the things/relationships/breakups/fights/jokes/Âparties/ and lives that have passed through this great little establishment.
I go there every time I go home........and so should you if you ever find yourself wandering in the mountains of Western North Carolina.
Okay, so they have cheap beer.  There are only so many things I will sacrifice  for cheap beer, and my sense of smell is not one of them.  Though if I could leave it at the door and pick it up on the way out, I might like this place a bit more.
Plus, this may just be a coincidence, but every time I've been here it seemed like they were hosting the Biggest Douchebag in the Universe Competition that night.
Surprisingly the Charlotte Street Pub actually has the atmosphere of a British pub. It is dark and smoky, with wooden furniture and customers that seem like they've been sitting the same spot for years.
The beer is decently priced, especially the domestics and the nightly specials. The bartenders aren't jerks.
You'll run into a strange assortment of Asheville dwellers. There'll be the dreadies that are in town for school and the more clean cut natives, and everyone gets along all right. You'll also probably run into many Grove Park Inn employees unwinding after a long day at work. It is the closest bar to the GPI, after all.
