  • Historical shopping center filled with local boutiques, craft goods, art galleries, and lifestyle services. Its 1920s-style architecture & large, iconic glass ceiling offer a truly unique shopping experience, rain or shine. One of the first indoor shopping malls in the world, the Grove Arcade was built by E.W. Grove, the same entrepreneur who built the Grove Park Inn. 

    Makers Market - Grove Arcade's south end is home to Makers Market, an outdoor market that features a rotating selection of some of Asheville's finest artisans and artists. 

    Restaurant Row - The restaurants on Grove Arcade's east end make up Restaurant Row, offering everything from Southern comfort cuisine, to wine bars, to grab-and-go casual bites. Live music on the weekends.
