Reggae Sunday w/ CHALWA at French Broad River Brewery, on Sunday, November 8 at 3:00 PM. Get there a little early if you want a good spot.

The private event space flexes to around 150 to 200 people depending on how you configure the room, and with French Broad River Pizza already on-site plus two parking lots, you've got the logistics covered. It's the kind of setup that works whether you're planning a big gathering or just need a reliable spot that's been brewing since 2000.

French Broad River Brewery has been brewing at the edge of Biltmore Village since 2000, on Fairview Road just minutes from the Biltmore Estate. The rotating tap list is inspired by European brewing traditions, with beers like the Goldenrod Pilsner and River Mist Hazy IPA, and French Broad River Pizza serves hand-tossed pies.

Locals treat it as a neighborhood hangout with weekly live music and trivia nights, and it's family and pet friendly.
