Kaytee's picks for what to do in Asheville in a time crunch

So many yummy breakfast / brunch food with a cute atmosphere. Try the vegan Lox bagel!

This arcade bar is always such a fun experience! you pay $10 and get to play unlimited games with friends all evening. great for date nights, kids, or video game lovers.

I love the vibe this brewery has! great drinks and a nice atmosphere.

Green sage has amazing healthy eating options for everyone. Lots of yummy vegan bowls, sandwiches, and fresh pressed juice! The pancakes are an amazing breakfast choice!

The river arts district is filled with awesome local shops and art covered walls. take some cool pictures while you are there. The sidewalk paths are great for biking and skating. This is defiantly must see in Asheville. 

Dobra tea is a cozy / mellow tea spot with Japanese floor seating. They have tons of yummy treats and of course a unique list of teas. Try their medicine balls or the kitchari. My favorite tea is the chai masala

Looking glass falls is a beautiful waterfall right off the blue ridge parkway. Make sure to stop at some of the lookout points along the way for stunning mountaintop views.

Located in the South Slope of Asheville, the Funkatorium is the East Coast’s first sour beer dedicated taproom. Featuring over a dozen varieties of these styles on draught, visitors can expect a full immersion into the old world way of experiencing and appreciating beer along with a creative food menu.

I love both indoor and outdoor seating at Funkatorium. I like the outdoor seating here more than the downtown one: more space, more shade, very casual and relaxing to hang out. The indoor design is beautiful and impressive. - Ngan N.
