Auction House Food and Drink Hall opens: What to know
ASHEVILLE - Fletcher's highly anticipated food oasis and watering hole is now open.
On April 25, Auction House Food & Drink Hall, by KO Restaurant Group, opened at 29 Fanning Bridge Road in Fletcher.
KO Restaurant Group’s Sarah and Paul Klaassen and Michael Olbrantz designed Auction House as a two-story eatery and drinkery with five original counter service concepts Auction House Wine Bar (or A.H. Wine Bar), KO Burger, Fish Camp 25, Mercado Cantina and Blue Collar Bourbon.
“You get bored doing the same thing every day but if you have multiple things going on, there’s always some fun you can have,” Sarah Klaassen told Citizen Times. “Today we’re going to have fun with these tacos, tomorrow we’re going to focus on the smash burgers.”
On the ground level, order casual bites like KO Burger’s retro-style griddle burgers, all-beef hotdogs and battered fries, and Fish Camp 25’s fish and chips, hushpuppies and po-boys.
Unwind at Blue Collar Bourbon, a full-service bar pouring cocktails, draft beer and a wide selection of bourbons including premium labels.
On the second floor, diners will find Yucatan-inspired fare from tacos to tortas and a full-service bar specializing in high-end tequila and mezcal.
Auction House Wine Bar’s menu features an extensive list of wines, frosé ― frozen rosé ― and mimosas.
Auction House, named after the specialty auction house that formerly inhabited the historic building, constructed in 1948, offers 6,600 square feet of interior space with ADA-compliant ramps to both level and on-site parking.
A beer garden extends the guest experience with games, ample seating and an outdoor stage for concerts, movie screenings and more.
The first live music performance is scheduled for 6-9 p.m. May 2. Music is planned to occur Thursday-Sunday, weekly.
