Continue with GoogleA better night out than the group chat is going to produce.
Every Thursday: bars worth the trip, rooftops that are not just a view and an overpriced cocktail, happy hours that are genuinely cheap, and meetups where showing up alone is normal.

One email. The night is already planned.
A Friday better than the group chat
Thursday the email picks the night. Friday at 6 you are at a taproom with one friend, then a listening room at 9 with four, because the email said get there before the opener and you listened. Saturday you sleep. Sunday you end up at the early show and stay for the second set. Nobody argued about where to go.
How a room gets in
Not clubs and bottle service. Here is the bar:
- Happy hour times and covers verified the week we send. Showing up at 7:05 for a 7:00 deal is on us if it happens.
- Every pick says what the room is like: loud, seated, dive, date.
- At least one pick a week works solo. Showing up alone is normal here.
- Non-alcoholic menus flagged. No pay-to-play, ever.
Into something else too? Add it.
Check as many as you want. It is still one email on Thursday.
Before you hand over your email
Is this all clubs and bottle service?
No. Most of it is bars, rooftops, happy hours, and smaller rooms. If a pick is an expensive night, we say so and give you the price.
I am in my 30s or 40s. Is this for me?
Yes. We note the general vibe and crowd on every pick so you are not walking into something that is not your scene.
I do not drink. Anything for me?
Yes — we flag places with real non-alcoholic menus and events that are not built around drinking. It is a growing share of what we cover.
Are the meetups yours or other people’s?
Both. We list what is happening around Asheville, and we are starting our own subscriber meetups as the list grows.
How often will you email?
Once a week, Thursday — in time to plan the weekend.
This Friday can be better than the last one.
One email, every Thursday. Free.
Free forever. One click to leave. We would rather you go than ignore us.
