Looking for some great breakfast or lunch in West Asheville, well you found it! Known for their breakfast bagel, and Cuban panini, They are located inside Battlecat coffee shop.

The Cuban panini stopped me in my tracks. It is so flavorful. The smoky taste of the pork is balanced with the delicious pickles. So glad I found the Tiger Bay Cafe!
