Our Story
ALLEY KATS isn't trying to be anything other than what it is — a no-nonsense tavern where the drinks are made with care, the beer is always cold, and the people walking through the door are treated like regulars from day one.
Situated on Hemlock Street in the heart of Waynesville, we've built a space where the mountain town energy meets good old-fashioned hospitality. Whether you're grabbing a quick pint after work or settling in for a long evening with friends, this is your spot.
What We Serve
From classic old fashioneds to house signatures you won't find anywhere else in town. Made fresh, shaken with intention.
Rotating taps featuring local Asheville brews and national favorites. Always cold, always fresh — and we change the taps regularly.
A curated selection of wines and premium spirits to complement the cocktails or stand on their own. Ask about our rotating features.
Full drink menu available at the bar. Ask your server about seasonal specials and local partnerships.
The Experience
Local musicians on select evenings. Acoustic sets, blues nights, and the occasional surprise.
We support local breweries, distilleries, and artists. You'll see their work on our walls.
Dress code? None. Vibe? Relaxed. Come as you are — we've got your seat waiting.
