Delightful coffee shop! i have been here twice. the espresso is very strong, which is how i like it. they have cute merchandise, and a really nice indoor outdoor feel. basically open air so you don’t have to worry about covid. staff is friendly. no almond milk, but they have oat and macadamia milk. i would recommend it!

Such a cute cafe! They were really nice, and the space is lovely. Highly recommend the chai latte and their turnovers. Definitely worth a stop!

Great place if you are a coffee connoisseur, a lot of attention to detail while prepping the coffee with weighted outputs.

Honestly, if it’s a Saturday and you seem different from everyone else in any way, you won’t feel welcome. I was sitting here 20 minutes waiting for a “for-here” order that was forgotten about when everyone else around me was getting what they paid for. I regret not getting a receipt, but it was crowded and noisy and I felt I didn’t have time to enter my phone number because I’m autistic and I was experiencing sensory overload. I get that it’s busy today but I trusted them to at least not forget about people’s orders, even if there is a delay. It’s a small thing at the end of the day, but as an autistic person I felt extremely ostracized and I will not be coming back. Think what you want about me but this has been my experience. I’ve been here a few times before and had great experiences, but I feel ignored and let down today.

What first hits you when you drive/walk up to Farewell is the excellent build out. You get strong Mediterranean vibes that start melting any tension you may be feeling. Once you walk into the cafe, youre greeted by a friendly barista ready to help you get a nice beverage. I had an ice coffee, black with no sugar, and it was excellent. My fiance had an ice matcha that she said was fantastic as well. The ambience was so nice, we just took our time enjoying the space. Highly recommend.

My new favorite place in Asheville! So cozy ! A lot of natural light which I am crazy about 😅🤍 and this oatmilk latte is amazing! Thank you!

Adorable shop. Nice workers. Had to park a little ways away. Mocha was great and in a real cup. Wish they had a few more pastry item options but might have just been a busy day.

Oh my goodness that was the most delicious bread + olive oil I’ve ever had! I never thought I’d say that about a coffee shop. And the ceramic cups/plates were just adorable.

Beautiful environment. Great selection of tasty bevs & bites. Local art on the walls. Planted potted in local pottery (hello, Ali Ruby Ceramics!). And purchases are cupped & plated on special dishware.

The guy that takes you order seemed like I was bothering him to order. No pastry, no food. The coffee was bitter and unless you want to be treated rudely, I would pick any of the dozens of coffee shops in Asheville. Will not come again. The name Farewell makes sense now. It’s a one and done place to visit.

Tried some delicious natural wines with friends and shot an underberg. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and really yummy products.

So happy we found this spot! Absolutely hands down the best coffee in town. Owner and staff have always been super friendly and welcoming. Atmosphere is airy and pleasant. Inside and outside seating available. We’ve become regulars, and I can’t recommend this place enough :)

A trip to Farewell is a study in the absurdity of *mask mandates*. I was in two Asheville businesses this a.m. without a mask, no problem, but the counter ladies at Farewell were insistent that I wear a mask to order coffee.I offered to step outside to the patio to order. No can do. Then I pointed out that patrons sitting at tables less than two feet apart were not wearing masks. I was told that it was okay to sit and drink your coffee without a mask.🧐I then offered to sit down and let her take my order. Nope. I gave Farewell every opportunity to serve me and still comply with a supposed mask mandate, and they refused.Essentially they were happy to sell me coffee as long as I paid even the most cursory homage to the mandate. What this should tell you about covid mandates is that they are about control, not your health. Stop complying, folks

Had the Tulsi Trinity herbal tea because Im not allowed any caffeine right now. It was incredibly delicious and refreshing. The outdoor seating is so nice and staff is friendly. Definitely recommend!

My go-to spot for coffee and light bites when I can make it out. Farewell is the perfect spot to have coffee, tea, beer, wine.. these folks do it right. Go here.

Great coffee and great location. My favorite coffee shop in Asheville!

Lovely experience. The gluten free fruit and nut bar was yummy and the honey rose cappuccino delightful. Outdoor seating was wonderful.

The coffee here is just fantastic. I just got the drip brew and it alone blew me away. So rich and flavorful. Gogogo.

Cute little spot for coffee. It was difficult finding parking but there was great outdoor seating and they had a bowl of water down for dogs. I was disappointed that they didnt have any chai but the green tea was lovely. Theres also plenty of inside tables for reading and working.Update: I found out from local friends that they have AMAZING chai but only make one batch per day. Ill have to visit earlier in the morning to try it!

Loved this spot. Had a wonderful iced latte and a delicious salted chocolate chip cookie. Great little assortment of pastries. Menu is simple and straight forward. Friendly staff - even ran my phone out to my car (in the cold!) when I left it behind. Will definitely be back!

Nice coffee and baked goods

This is true craft coffee place. Awesome beans and great service. They know what they are doing unlike so many wannabe craft coffee places.

Excellent cafe - top notch bean and barristas who know how to pour a perfect latte. Superb local baked goods... And wine!Very nice layout inside and out with beautiful plants on display for sale.

This place is very nice looking, tho it’s so small, I bumped into the person sitting at the counter and the person sitting at a table at the same time, when I was going to the bathroom. I am very skinny btw.The large mocha was $6 and it was came in small 10oz? cup and I didn’t taste any chocolate. The coffee was very good tho. Croissant was so hard I almost broke a tooth. Even after I warmed it up, I realized, it wasn’t just cold or old, it wasn’t really baked through well enough. I am writing this review because I’ve spent over $14 on these two items plus tip and I am so disappointed

A properly good black iced coffee, that doesnt need sugar and milk like other so-called coffee shops.Also, the dog treats made my two dogs exceedingly happy, so some good magic there too.

Hands down Best coffee shop in Asheville. I had quit drinking coffee for a number of years in favor of tea, but came here to get coffee with my wife over winter, and haven’t turned back since. They source coffee from the best roasters around the country and always keep things fresh and interesting.

Farewell has an amazing atmosphere, aesthetic, and great coffee! Highly recommend if youre on the south slope.

Solid, consistently good cappuccino. Reminds me a bit of a cross between Blue Bottle and a local spot called Eightfold in LA.Worth a stop if you want a good espresso based drink.

Overpriced tourist trap with pristine, wonderful, quality craft brewed coffee. $6 day old danish. Internet requires signup and account of you don’t use Twitter.

Fantastic coffee AND excellent selection of plants! At amazing prices.

Great coffee, food & service. Nice to have a coffee shop on South Slope.

My reaction to seeing a sign along the sidewalk that advertises Coffee, Wine, Plants? Bout it. And that combination was very prevalent when you enter the Farewell coffee shop. They have a great barista bar and all over the shop are little green plants for sale. It makes it feel like a calm jungle inside while you sip on your drink. I enjoyed a small coffee with a splash of almond milk which was a perfect late afternoon pick me up as I transitioned from Bhramari to Burial. Looking forward to coming back the next time I’m in town

Friendly baristas but its a bit too pricey and Bougetastic. It isnt very local feeling.

Maybe the best coffee in town.

We ordered capuccinos and there were just fine but they do not have good selection of pastries or food

Great service, great location and yummy reasonable priced food. My coffee drinking friends said the coffee was excellent. Definitely returning. Hope the kitchen reopens soon.

Loved the atmosphere and bean water, 10/10 recommend. Cake donut was also excellent.

Best vibe in town, great coffee, and friendly staff!

Cute place offering good coffee

Cool coffee shop that also has what Id consider uncommon or exotic plants at reasonable prices

Best coffee shop in Asheville. Great vibe. Great space. Friendly staff. Closest you can get to big city level style and quality.

Love their cappuccino! Very friendly people as well😊

Several patrons without masks sitting inside their small shop chatting over coffee. As with any indoors dining right, this place is a hazard. Cant comment on the coffee since I did not go in. 2 stars only because they have a large open window on the side. People diagnosed with COVID are twice as likely to have dined in at a restaurant. Their location could easily be curbside service too.

Best cappuccino I have ever had. We just passed through on vacation, but I wish we had this place back home. I would go there every day!

The Trustafarian Hipster Caffeine HQ for AVL.You will not find a better cafe.Great coffee, Great baristas.

Great coffee and service.

Great spot. Beautiful space, great staff & owner, great drinks, diverse menu.

We came here on a beautiful winter Sunday afternoon. I trust this place to grow into a beautiful escape to the present. Our espresso was delicious and glass of wine was refreshing even on a chilly evening. Enjoy.

My family loves this place!! Great spot and a great change of pace in AVL. The team at farewell are awesome and the wine is a hidden gem!

Plant-filled sunny coffee shop with great coffee and great vibes. Also has a natural wine menu

Solid 3rd wave coffee bar: knowledgable staff, thoughtfully curated espresso drinks & I believe their coffee is Fair trade (not cant confirm because they have guest roasters). Anyway, worth a visit! or two or three!

It was great coffee and a nice space. Staff was friendly and I will go again.

Always pleasant! Clean, bright, airy and relaxing space, reliably good coffee. Kitty print on cups, 5 ⭐️!

Definitely a must stop if you love coffee. Oh, and their muffins are amazing too. Did you know you can buy plants in there?

Sweetest staff. I love the iced latte. It is my #1 coffee shop. Love yall!

The coffee was amazing, brewed to prefection. The staff is really helpful, knowledgeable, and sweet.

My bridesmaids and I stopped by for some coffee and the baristas were so incredibly kind! Not only did they make us delicious coffee, but they also gave us recommendations for other places and things to do around Asheville - we loved them all! The shop itself was so clean, full of gorgeous plants, respectful all COVID procedures, and overall such a neat little spot. Will definitely visit again the next time I’m in Asheville!

Latte with macadamia nut milk was superb!

Good vibes. Outside is dog friendly. Chill place. Will be back.

Some of the best iced coffee I’ve ever had! Super awesome staff and a beautiful space :)

Tasty beans, kind staff, great ambiance and plenty of indoor and outdoors seating.

What a lovely coffee shop! It’s so bright and cheerful inside when th sunlight and plants. The service is super friendly. Very local vibe. We shared an ENORMOUS chocolate scone and a great Dirty Chai. So good!

Our go-to spot for great coffee and food and an awesome atmosphere.

Such a cute atmosphere and amazing house made syrups!!

UPDATED REVIEW: I appreciate the owners response and it makes total sense. 5 star coffee shop ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. This was also one of the first coffee shops to reopen not long after the pandemic temporarily closed everything down. They set the example of safe social distancing and upgraded protection to staff and customer 💚☮️👨🏾‍🍳👩🏾‍🌾ORIGINAL REVIEW: I was teetering on 4 or 5 stars because this place is a solid 4.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟The Rose Honey Latte is one of the best lattes I’ve ever had, anywhere 🌹 ☕️. The disappointment comes in I guess they only offer one size coffee because though I brought my own mug, it wasn’t filled up all the way. I understand some places leave room, but for me to make a comment about it shows it was noticeably not filled (I’d say probably only like 75% filled, maybe a little more). The biscuit was amazing and fresh, another great thing about this spot is they get fresh baked goods from local places like The Rhu.It isn’t that big and when I came a group was having a meeting so it was loud and crowded. They have tables and a bar with 2 stools so you can watch your drink being made 🥰. Not a lot of parking but it may have been because of the group there. Prices were excellent, compared to nearby coffee shops I was expecting to pay a few dollars more for what I got! 😃Decor is gorgeous and the staff is really friendly. It’s in a good location, easy to walk to if downtown since it’s right across the street from Greenman Brewery 💚Next time I think I’ll ask if I can pay extra to get my mug filled all the way, it would be nice if they offered a “top-off” fee for those who bring their own mugs. If this happens then I can easily say this is a 5 star coffee shop 😊.

This little gem in Asheville is awesome. They served me the best Cafe Mocha I have had to date. Great job!!

Great friednly service and great spot to people watch.

They serve rotating coffees on drip from various roasters around the country and it’s THE. BEST. Drip Coffee I’ve ever experienced. Espresso selection also rotates out often and they serve some small baked goods that are always exciting and healthy (ish) haha.Nice clean vibe that’s a little different than the rest of downtown AVL.***edit. After living here for a year and being married to a local, I can confidently say farewell is the only coffee shop I need in Asheville.

A great spot for good coffee and great service!

Everything I want in a local spot - specialty coffee, natural wine, excellent lighting/atmosphere, and kind baristas. A really nice addition to downtown Asheville. :)

Great coffee

Large 16 oz To Go cups for tea would be nice

Best cappuccino ever! Thank you☕️

Great people, great space and a welcomed addition to The South Slope. Stop in for a drink and a bite!

Great coffee and friendly service! Will make a consistent staple on my way to work.

Hidden gem in the middle of downtown.

The best espresso in Asheville!

Gods work.

Trendy, cute, & good coffee!

Love this!!
