Jack of the Wood on Patton has been pouring proper pints and hosting pickers since 1997, back when it was Green Man's original home. The pub menu hits hard with fish and chips and Reubens, while the music calendar runs deep with Wednesday old-time jams, Thursday bluegrass sessions, and Irish trad circles on Sundays that draw the real heads.

Jack of the Wood is a downtown Asheville Celtic pub on Patton Avenue, hosting live music nights since 1997. Bluegrass jams, Irish folk sessions, and rotating bands fill the room most nights of the week.
