Private Dining in Asheville with Flexible Menus
Food and drinks are often what guests remember most about an event, so we built our private dining program in Asheville with flexibility in mind.
Our kitchen offers multiple menu options designed to suit different styles of events. Hosts can choose from plated dinners, ideal for seated reception dinners or more formal gatherings, or buffet-style service that works well for social events, networking receptions, and larger group celebrations. Menus can be tailored to match the tone of the event, whether it is an elegant rehearsal dinner, a company holiday party, or a lively birthday celebration.
The bar program is equally adaptable. Fitz and the Wolfe features a strong cocktail identity, and private events can incorporate several service styles depending on the occasion. Options typically include hosted bars, drink tickets, or curated cocktail selections. Our team can also design beverage packages that highlight craft cocktails, mocktails, and draft beer selections that complement the event menu.
The goal is simple. Make sure the food, drinks, and service style fit the gathering, not the other way around.
Event Spaces at in Downtown Asheville
One of the biggest advantages of hosting an event at Fitz and the Wolfe is the variety of spaces available. Each room has its own atmosphere, making it easy to match the setting to the type of event you are planning. Groups can reserve individual rooms or combine multiple spaces for larger events or full venue experiences.
The Showroom
The Showroom is the centerpiece of Fitz and the Wolfe and serves as our primary performance and event space. It is bold, colorful, and designed around live music and entertainment. This space works well for corporate receptions, networking events, company celebrations, and private parties where guests want energy and movement.
The Showroom includes a stage, professional sound system, and flexible floor layout. It can accommodate seated dinners, cocktail receptions, presentations, or live entertainment depending on the format of the event. For groups looking to add a memorable atmosphere to a Downtown Asheville event, this space sets the tone.
The Den
For a more relaxed environment, The Den offers a cozy, nostalgic setting filled with vintage charm and games. This space feels like a stylish lounge where guests can settle in and stay awhile.
The Den works particularly well for smaller gatherings, cocktail receptions, birthday parties, and casual corporate meetups. Guests often use the space as a social hub during larger events as well, giving people a place to mingle, play games, and relax between activities happening in the Showroom.
Because it connects naturally with the rest of the venue, The Den is a great addition when combining spaces for larger private events.
The Palm Room
Hidden within Fitz and the Wolfe is The Palm Room, a tropical speakeasy with late night vibes. It is intimate, atmospheric, and ideal for gatherings that benefit from a more curated setting.
This room is popular for private cocktail parties, rehearsal dinners, VIP receptions, and smaller corporate gatherings. The Palm Room has its own personality and works beautifully for events that prioritize conversation, music, and crafted cocktails.
When paired with the Showroom or The Den, it also functions well as a private lounge or breakout space during larger events.
Flexible Space for Asheville Events
One of the most unique aspects of Fitz and the Wolfe is the ability to combine spaces for customized event layouts.
Some groups reserve the Showroom for presentations or entertainment while using The Den for casual networking. Others host a private dinner in the Palm Room before opening the Showroom for a reception. Full venue buyouts allow events to flow naturally between all three spaces, creating a layered experience for guests.
This flexibility makes Fitz and the Wolfe a strong fit for many types of Downtown Asheville events, including:
- Corporate meetings and business presentations
- Networking receptions and company celebrations
- Birthday parties and social gatherings
- Rehearsal dinners and wedding welcome parties
- Holiday parties and milestone celebrations
The space can be configured to match the size, energy, and style of the event.
