Dang so good! I drop into this spot every time I'm in Asheville. It's a must go to if you want the best Cortado in town. It's right on the river so it has a beautiful setting. The baristas really know what they're doing on a pro level.

Cute little shop. Loved the riverside seating. Saw a mom and baby deer across the river. We got three different drinks. Two were great. One (the barista special) wasn't our top pick but was unique and appreciated. The breakfast sandwich (egg and cheese biscuit) was premade and then warmed which threw me off BUT it was really good. The biscuit had cheese and herbs in it. A lovely surprise. The bagel we ordered was fluffy and toasted nicely. A great end to our trip.

Cesspool of Cinnamon, I believe my latte was called....OUTSTANDING. One of the best lattes that I have ever consumed. It was orchestrated perfectly. Just enough sweetness, cinnamon was the star, creamy oat milk & a great pulled shot of espresso. I can't wait until my next visit!! Great location as well...aside from the treatment plant (I've smelled worse).

5***** for this river location near to our Airbnb in Woodfin. A delightful riverside spot with some chairs here & there, some tables, folks with dogs. Very laid back. even in the mid summer heat, it was pleasant enough to spend time outside here. Tiny indoor space not really room to dwell other than a narrow counter area if I remember correctly.I had the same thing every day for the duration of our week long stay, the Diablo...so memorable ! And I almost never ever buy coffee out(unless on vacation) and typically stick with a plain drip coffee..This was amazing, filling & addictive. If you are in the area, totally worth a trip. ** we didn't find out until our final day, but there is a stamp reward card..and we were 5 people who made a bunch of trips..either way, all agreed a wonderful find.

Loving this river location. High five is a solid local choice in the asheville area. It has become a local staple as they have a few locations now. This one might be a new fav. Situated amongst the river in a little bit, this spot is delightful. There are other art spaces nearby and a shared bathroom. The high five shop has some simple breakfast options such as muffins, scones and Sammie's. Their coffee is great. I got an oat milk latte and it was pretty expensive but creamy and delish. They also have kombucha, soda water, beer and non alcoholic options. Cute!The staff were friendly and engaging. Plenty of space to wait inside and sit outdoors. Might be challenging in winter but they do have parking for a speedy visit too.

Great coffee such a chill vibe. Beautiful location. I would always go here. I wish the coffee was hotter. I like drinking steaming hot drinks.

Perfect spot for coffee on a weekend morning, or a nice place to hang out and get some work done if you're a local. It's a weird area, so we ended up parking at the Woodfin Park down the road and walking the short trail to the shop. Cool little location directly on the river in a small shed. Filled with merch and coffee making equipment, they cram it into this spot. All the offerings you come to expect from a coffee shop and more / large unique espresso drink menu as well as drip and tea offerings. They've got a few food options too but didn't get any so can't speak to that. Great original specials menu, we got a cinnamon latte and tried a golden milk. Everything we had was made well and not overly flavored. The real draw of this spot is the riverfront though, even if that's not rare in Asheville. We spent a morning hanging out in some Adirondacks right on the water, and seating isn't really lacking so you've got a pretty good chance of grabbing a good spot for a drink or two. Perfect coffee joint - we'll be back.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting High Five coffee at Camp Riverside, and I must say, it's a hidden gem worth discovering! Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this cozy coffee shop is located right on the beautiful French Broad River.The coffee served here is exceptional, made with Counter Coffee which is some of the best I've ever had. And the bagels, oh my goodness! They're freshly baked and paired perfectly with the coffee. It's a perfect spot to unplug and enjoy a relaxing cup of coffee while taking in the scenic views of the river.What sets this coffee shop apart from others is the friendly and mellow staff. They make you feel right at home as soon as you step through the door. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with plenty of seating options to choose from either inside or outside, though it was designed to encourage sitting outside. Overall, I highly recommend High Five coffee at Camp Riverside to anyone looking for a peaceful coffee spot away from the city noise. Whether you're a coffee connoisseur or just looking for a relaxing spot to unwind, this hidden gem has something for everyone. Don't hesitate to stop by and experience the magic for yourself!

Delicious coffee, beautiful location, and excellent service Their seasonal "Maple Salted Latte" was perfect. The coffee was complemented, not drowned out, by the flavor. Not too sweet, not too salty, and a hint of maple.

Amazing coffee and beautiful location to enjoy it! The inside was super cozy and although there was only one barista working, the wait was minimal and the drink was amazing! I got a PSL, and it was perfect for the chilly morning next to the river.
