The Bar/Lounge at The Inn on Biltmore Estate

"To eat here, you do need to be a guest at the Inn, be visiting the estate for the day, or be a season passholder, but other than meeting those requirements you can dine like a baron or baroness for not much more than you'd pay at one of Asheville's better restaurants"

"The hotel's distinguished character extends to its dining venues — The Dining Room and the Library Lounge"

"Beyond the two concierge desks is the inviting estate-harvested-oak-paneled Library Lounge, where formal tea and casual meals are served fireside amid plush seating, a grand piano, oil paintings and a few books"
