OWL Bakery

I cant say enough about the people who run Owl Bakery. I have been purchasing their seeded loaves ever since Farm & Sparrow stopped baking and was delighted to find Owl made a similar loaf. Over the years they have been extremely conscientious. If there ever has been an issue such as trying to get loaves during covid restrictions, they have gone above and beyond to make sure I was supplied with my essential loaves. Great product and fine folks whom I am most grateful for.

What to say... their pastries are simply the best! I know people who drive miles out of the way to eat here. Best croissants since I visited France. Two things to be aware of - they use lots of butter, and there's no wifi - it's not that kind of computer cafe, it's a slow food kind of place (but the service is not slow FYI). Other than that, sheer bliss! Coffee is amazing too, drinking a Tanzanian peaberry right now.

Freaking legit. OWL is the best bakery in Asheville, and likely the entire state of North Carolina. I like to get a cup of coffee, a box of pastries to snack on throughout the weekend (those laminations- WHOA!), and a loaf of country sourdough for making sandwiches at home. If you want to know what heaven tastes like, try the coffee walnut strudel. Oh my gawd. Enjoy!

Now we know why this place is rated high and raved about! It is a bit pricy, but what a treat! All the pastries and drinks we ordered were just delicious!

Terrific pastries. Sad that you can only go to the window during Covid but everything was delicious.
