Adventure Season have begun in WNC and we are teaming up with our good friends at French Broad Adventures to celebrate!!! For the occasion today, May 3rd, we are releasing 2 special flavors, Guide’s Breakfast & Turtle Rock-y Road at all locations of The Hop! Both flavors are collaborations with French Broad Adventures, will be available throughout May, and will also be sold all season long at the FBA outpost in Marshall, located at 12 Good Adventures Ln.

The Hop Ice Cream has been an Asheville institution since 1978, with imaginative and locally-influenced flavors. Owners Ashley and Greg Garrison opened their first downtown location at S&W Market. The menu features homemade dairy and vegan ice creams, classic milkshakes, sundaes, desserts, and made-from-scratch waffle cones. The Hop’s flagship flavors (Salted Caramel, Vanilla Bean, and Chocolate) will be offered alongside a variety of staples and rotates flavors — often featuring local ingredients and collaborations with Asheville businesses.

"The Hop is by far our favorite ice cream place in Buncombe County. We love their homemade ice cream varieties, friendly atmosphere & the support they give to the community..."
