Great food and atmosphere
Food was very good! New menu very nice;however over an hour wait to get food once at table not good!
We took of town visitors and we all loved it. Food was great and the service was best ever. Tables well placed in relation to the booths and everyone felt completely safe.
The best burger ever. Great flavor and cooked perfectly. The pickle was very sour. Everything is made on the grounds.
Overall a great experience, our server was top notch.
The server was very nice. The food was good, portions are more on the small side, or maybe just smaller than what most places serve. But very satisfied.
Fifth visit. Spacing nicely done. Food was good to excellent. Had a very attentive waiter. Noise wasn’t too bad. Definitely recommend it to everyone
We always enjoy dining at the Stable Cafe.
The service is always great and the meals are delicious!
Food was good but not quite up to par for price. To be expected at a tourist spot I suppose. A good option when visiting g Biltmore, however.
Meatloaf was delicious. Everything was great. Save room for dessert.
The food and service was excellent, we will be returning!
This was an interesting place to eat—Imagining the previous usage. Good food and service. A bit noisy.
It was very cold and drafty inside, but everything else was excellent
The servers were very busy. They tried to get guests in and out as quickly as possible. The food was made in advance and warmed up when served. It was reasonably priced though.
We had never taken the kids to Biltmore Estate, so we decided to include the Stable Cafe as part of their inaugural visit and it did not disappoint. All four of us enjoyed our meals - and shared tastes around the table so that everyone was able to try a little of everything. Our server was outstanding - at the ready whenever we needed anything, but never intrusive. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone visiting the Estate.
Best restaurant at Biltmore. Food, drinks, service, pricing and setting all good
Wonderful experience! The food and service were excellent!!
Atmosphere was awesome. Super family friendly. Service was great. While the food itself was delicious, I do wish there were a few more menu options.
Great atmosphere and Whit was a great waiter. Can’t wait to go back.
This was the perfect place for lunch following the tour of the Biltmore! The Stable Cafe is near the tour exit. Reservations are highly recommended!! We made our reservation several weeks ahead of time and there were only two time slots still available. The place was full when we ate at 11:30am. The service was quick and the staff was great. My peach sangria and barbecue pork sandwich were very tasty.
Our 1st time dining at the Stable since COVID19, one year ago. It was great to be back.
We loved our experience. Whit did a wonderful job serving us. He is professional, polite and attended to our needs without interrupting our meal.
Best waitress
Food was delicious for our Easter Sunday
This had the best meal and atmosphere of all the Biltmore restaurants.
Wonderful service in an unique venue. Great food, too
Great place to eat lunch while at the Biltmore. Service was incredibly fast. HIGHLY recommend making reservations beforehand. Also, when you exit the main dining room, take the stairs to the bathrooms upstairs where you can enjoy looking over the open railing to the dining hall below as well as look out the windows.
Food is good and is priced exactly to level of quality, so the value seems pretty spot on. Generous portions in the kids menu—we got a meal each for our 2, 4, and 7 year olds, and probably had a meal and a half leftover between the three of them. I highly recommend the steak salad.
So much fun eating in a horse stable! From the moment we were greeted at the door to our server, everyone was amazing!!! Food was delish! We enjoy different dining experiences and this is one restaurant that would definitely Win, Place or Show!!!
The service is excellent. The location is beautiful and is kids friendly
What a hoot to realize the very space where we were eating our lunch was also the same exact stall the horses ate theirs. Food was delicious and if you want a unique place - this is it!!
When spending a day at the Biltmore, the Stable Cafe is our favorite lunch option. The food is delicious, there are lots of gluten free options, the ambiance is unique and it is right next to the house. It is a nice way to sit down and take a break between touring the house and the gardens. We especially love the pimento cheese dip and barbecue sandwich. Their gluten free bread is the best we’ve ever eaten at a restaurant.
Great food options and exceptional service .
Excellent service and really good food. Apple cake dessert was awesome.
Busy place
Seated at a very drafty and cold table . Waiter did not move us as we asked ...
convenient location after visiting the Biltmore estate .
Food was very good! We had the pimento cheese dip. I would definitely recommend that and the collard greens.
Simple, amazing food served with a smile. Our family loved it!!
We eat there every time we visit Biltmore and it never lets us down. Couldn’t ask for better food and atmosphere. The staff members are spectacular, inviting and they make you feel at home.
Paula was excellent!
We took our daughter and son-in-law for birthday lunches. We love this place. We will, hopefully, go back again and again. This day the inside temperature was so cold that we had to be moved to a table with sun beaming through the window. The food was outstanding, as always, but the service was somewhat slow. The prices were good for such an attraction. We would definitely recommend it if you visit the house and grounds for a tour.
Food was phenomenal southern cooking! Came out very fast. Servers were very attentive and nice.
Our server Paula was excellent, very professional, cordial, and accommodating!
