Location: Blue Mountain Pizza and Brew Pub

Wednesday night at Blue Mountain Pizza in Weaverville with Larry Dolamore. Good spot if you want live music with your dinner without committing to a full weekend night out.

The kitchen runs deeper than the wood-fired pies, pastas, sandwiches, quesadillas, and salads all get the same from-scratch treatment, and Thursday nights bring a family-style spaghetti dinner that pulls regulars in before the 7pm music kicks off. Everything's hand-thrown or house-made, so whether you post up inside or on the porch, the food backs up the craft beer list.

Blue Mountain Pizza and Brew Pub is Weaverville's hometown pizzeria on North Main Street, serving homemade pizza, small-batch craft beer and homemade ice cream for over 20 years.

Locals treat it as the family-friendly hangout in downtown Weaverville, with free live music most nights, from Americana and bluegrass to acoustic singer-songwriters.
