The Well-bred Bakery Café​ In Biltmore Village

Had lunch at The Well-bred Bakery and Cafe at Biltmore village the other day. When I say the sandwiches my boyfriend and I ordered were good, I mean life changing good. We both had the curry chicken sandwich. My side was a Greek cucumber salad and his side was a kale salad. Dessert was key lime pie! Everything I put in my mouth from that cafe was amazing. I can't recommend this place enough.

Well-Bred has a brunch and lunch menu which, while limited, offers an excellent taste experience. We had the quiche and a sandwich special; both were delicious. Be warned. Their desserts are extremely tempting, and taste every bit as good as they look. Parking: Parking availability depends on the cowd each day. We parked two blocks and walked but it is a very pleasant walk.

We've been going here for years. Large desserts and baked goods that are delicious and visually appealing. The wife loves the mountain éclair and espresso roulade. I recommend the tomato gouda quiche and Swedish creme. The outdoor dining area is nice when the weather allows. The one negative is that parking is a . If you arrive early in the day there will be empty spots along the roads but when activity ramps up those cramped little Asheville streets get packed with cars and the limited free parking fills up. Plan ahead. They have multiple locations so if you're up for a little drive I would recommend the Weaverville location for its calmer area.

I'm going to start by explaining that I always enjoy going to the Biltmore, and the service and quality is usually amazing. Enough so that we're passholders for several years now. I had my niece with me this time. We ate at the Village Social, which was new for me. She ordered Mac n Cheese, and a fruit cup. This was the fruit cup. Canned mandarin oranges and a few green grapes. The mac was literally kraft mac, including the powdery clumps that you just can't ever get rid. Don't dumb down your food for kids. They have complex palettes as well. And parents don't appreciate paying for mediocre meals for their kids.

We stopped by for lunch while vacationing in the area and fell in love with this bakery. I had the chicken salad on a croissant with a watermelon and feta salad with fresh basil and a watermelon lemonade. All of it was delicious, everyhting was fresh and perfectly prepared. Highly recommend!
