Fitz and the Wolfe is a cocktail and music venue shaped by the spirit of improvisation, storytelling, and the kind of nights that feel too good to end.
Located in downtown Asheville, we’re inspired by the boldness of live music, the romance of literature, and the golden age of socialites who knew how to make an entrance and an impression.
Here, every night brings a new soundtrack. Jazz, swing, honky-tonk, and sometimes things a little more esoteric—if it moves people, we book it. The music fills the space like a second heartbeat, sometimes rowdy, sometimes intimate, always memorable. It’s not background noise. It’s the reason you’re here.
Our cocktails are crafted with the same care as the setlist. Inventive but unpretentious, classic with a twist, always tuned to the tone of the room. Whether you’re starting your evening or stretching it into the early hours, the drink in your hand should feel like part of the story. And when hunger hits, the kitchen keeps pace with a lineup built for the night crowd. Think specialty dogs, smash burgers, and salty, satisfying snacks that play well with a second round.
The venue unfolds like a novel in three parts. One space hums with energy and celebration, built for the bold and the social. Another invites you to slip away for a quiet game or a deeper conversation. And one remains a little hidden, layered in tropical shadows and low light, waiting to be discovered.
Fitz and the Wolfe isn’t just a place to go out. It’s where scenes are set, characters collide, and the night takes shape one moment at a time.
With multiple flexible spaces to choose from, Fitz and the Wolfe is built for gatherings of all kinds. Whether you’re planning a social celebration or a polished corporate event, we can accommodate groups of 4 to 400. Our plated and banquet-style menus offer plenty of options to match the mood and make your event memorable.
Our menus are made for late nights and long stories, featuring inventive cocktails, cold beer, and comfort food like specialty dogs, smash burgers, and shareable snacks that always hit the spot. Hosting something private? We offer a range of plated and buffet-style menus tailored for events of all kinds.
We’re proud to be partnered with our neighbors at Haywood Park Hotel, a boutique stay that honors the building’s roots as Asheville’s iconic Bon Marché department store. With oversized suites and timeless style, it’s the perfect place for your guests to land after a night at Fitz and the Wolfe. Room blocks are available for events, so your afterparty doesn’t have to end at the exit.
