The Dripolator Coffeehouse

I discovered this fantastic little shop while driving back to Asheville from Blue Ridge Parkway. It’s a cozy coffee shop with a charming vintage atmosphere. The coffee was rich and creamy, and the pastries were simply outstanding. We tried a cheesecake brownie that was to die for—definitely a reason to return! The staff was prompt and friendly as well.

Honestly, this was one of the best lattes I've had in quite some time. The spinach quiche was tasty, but the caramel apple cheesecake was simply outstanding.

Oh my goodness! What a delightful little coffee shop! A friend recommended The Dripolator, and I’m absolutely in love. The exterior of the building is bursting with character, and I adore the visible stone additions that have been added over the years. Inside, the atmosphere is so cozy and inviting, filled with greenery and soft lighting that makes you want to settle in and tackle all that online work you’ve been putting off due to a lack of inspiration. I tried the tea cake, cherry tart, and apple cheesecake bread, paired with a beautiful golden milk latte, and everything tasted homemade and full of love. I plan to stop by here every time I pass through Black Mountain. It’s officially my new tradition!

Lovely, proper coffee shop. Great coffee, good pastries (the cinnamon bun was yummy), tasty Chai tea latte and general good vibes with cool vintage furniture and decor. A nice spot for sure.

One of the best mocha frappes I?ve had. Especially since it has ice cream in it. We came back two mornings in a row. The blue berry strudel is delicious and so is the chocolate croissant. If your wanting a strong cup of coffee to start your day the coldbrew maybe the wake up call you need.
