Haywood Road fills up fast when the gospel or soul nights get rolling, so give yourself extra time to circle for a spot before doors. The bar stays open until 2:30am if you need to wait it out with a drink after the show.

The Double Crown is a honky-tonk and dive bar on Haywood Rd in West Asheville known for DJs spinning vinyl (country, soul, blues, punk), live bands, karaoke nights, and a small kitschy house layout crammed with old-school decor.

Regulars call it a true neighborhood anchor of the West Asheville scene: no pretension, cheap drinks, and a crowd that runs from tattooed scensters to retirees.
