This place is EXCELLENT. I love Larry's Beans they use and i love knowing i'm contributing to a Fair Trade company (larry's beans). Oh and i love the staff at the Drip, they are amazing. Hey Sean!! Miss Black Mountain and the best coffee in the world.

Love this place... love Black Mtn and can't come without going to the Dripolater... after coming from upstate SC for 8+ years, I've about earned a free coffee with my stamp card! Wish I could come more. Quaint, 'coffee shop-esque', friendly staff... perfect small town /village coffee shop.

Slightly Below Average: I am tired of everyone in Asheville saying that this is one of the city's best coffee houses (which was said before it's second location opened in Asheville proper). It is not terrible, but it also isn't really good either. I have been four times, twice to the Black Mountain location and twice to the new Asheville one. The Black Mountain one has a good atmosphere, at least it feels a bit like an independant coffee shop but the Asheville one is a little too sterilized and Starbucks-like to catch my fancy. As far as the coffee the espresso has been overextracted on both occasions I have had it, the coffee (the one time I had it) was astringent, and they on a separate occasion messed up my girlfriend's italian soda. I am not looking to 'pan' the place it just isn't that great. Is there worse, certainly...would I rather go here than a Starbucks, any day...but is it Asheville's best, no. If it is the best, this town needs more coffee shops.
