Little Jumbo

"This intimate North Asheville bar was well ahead of the NA boom, with mocktails — or as co-owner Chall Gray prefers, spirit-free cocktails — on the menu since it opened in 2017. Bartenders continue to collaborate on new, seasonal, and cleverly named concoctions, like Fire Walk With Me (Seedlip Grove 42, falernum, lime, orgeat, and habanero)." - Kay West

"Offers live jazz on Mondays and experimental tunes on Tuesdays."

"Little Jumbo is a sweet spot to close out the day with craft cocktails, including some offered with fancy table service." - Gina Smith

"A thoughtful space, Little Jumbo is a neighborhood bar that hits the sweet spot in terms of price for quality drinks. Settle into the velvet couch with a signature house cocktail in hand for a night of jazz or other live music. For a well-balanced drink, order The Happy Moment." - MATADOR_NETWORK

"This mahogany-adorned, copper ceilinged 1920s-era building is the only cocktail bar in Five Points and thus exudes the calm refuge that only a sequestered, warmly lit neighborhood bar can offer. Take your time with the menu, which centers on classic and reimagined renditions of Old Fashioneds, negronis, and gin and tonics — plus a special drinks-for-two service (complete with accouterment) for the Japanese highball, Manhattan, and Havana. Most days of the week, visitors may enjoy plenty of elbow room at the bar — but on Monday night the weekly jazz band performance transforms the space into a packed, standing-room-only nightclub." - Laura Hackett
