“I'm picky who I do business with. I've been a customer with Denny's for over a decade and it's the only pawn shop I will do business with. I'm familiar with all the pawn shops in WNC and Denny's is by far the best. The staff greets customers by name, asks about how you've been, and genuinely put an effort into building relationships with community members. Good prices, loyalty points, great customer service...the whole deal.”
“This place is amazing. I’ve gotten a tattoo here and several piercings. Greg is an amazing piercer and has great bedside manner. He is super kind and professional. All of the staff here are awesome, and I 100% recommend Empire for any tattoo or piercing!”

“Love Fox and Beaux and couldn't recommend visiting them and working specifically with Amberly. Amberly is the only artist in town I have bought my forever pieces from. She worked with my husband to design my engagement ring and worked with me to design a custom bolo for my him to wear on our wedding day. Both of which turned out better than I could've imagined. I have also purchased my favorite ring and an iconic dino-bone cuff from her. All four of these are heirloom pieces that I will treasure forever! If you are looking to design something custom or find a perfect forever-piece, Amberly is your girl!”
“Small husband and wife owned gem store. The wife was extremely knowledgeable about gems and her husband will cut any gems you find if there big enough. They had a nice selection of cut and polished stones”
“Located in the ever so cool River Arts District, Zen Ink boasts a collection of diverse and talented artists. The space is clean, hip, and friendly. The retail shop has all sorts of crystals, oddities, clothing, and jewlery. Highly recommend any artist here. Nic has done one of my tattoos, and I absolutely love it.”
“I liked this place so much. The staff was helpful and friendly. They had some really fun and cute stickers and we got some neat artwork also. This seems mostly like a souvenir shop but I think they have something for locals and tourists alike. Stop in you'll find something fun.”
“Annette was such a delight when I came in today! She helped me find some replacement yellow gold backs for my stud earrings. I got home and they fit great, but was assured that I could return them if necessary. Annette gave me a great deal and I would highly recommend Saslow’s for all your jewelry needs.”
“The women at Embellish are some of the sweetest business owners I’ve ever met! I have a great time chatting with them each time I go in to browse (which almost always turns into purchase).I started shopping here before I even lived in Asheville and I can’t recommend their shop enough. A majority of my jewelry has come from their shop and even the earrings I wore for my rehearsal dinner and wedding came from here! Our wedding colors were terracotta and mauve and I couldn’t have found a better pair of earrings than these. All of their pieces are so unique but also functional to wear as everyday pieces. Embellish has also become my go-to place for gifts as they have something for everyone!”
“The employees were super nice and fun to talk to, but never pushed anything on us like salespeople often do. The store has a wide variety of items and I grabbed a few gifts, in addition to a couple of things just for myself. This is a great store if you're not looking for anything in particular, but are in need of some good gift ideas!”
“Nestor was amazing and helped us throughout the entire process. He was able to help us design and produce my dream ring. Reeds was able to provide exactly what I wanted, when other jewelers denied my requests. After shopping around we determined that reeds prices were just as great as their customer service. We are grateful for all of Nestor’s hard work and look forward to working with him in the future.”
“Such a neat little store. So many fun trinkets and paintings, jewelry, etc. Fun to browse and treat yourself to a gift of maybe someone in your life deserves a little something.”
“I went for a consultation in order to get info before my daughter and I came in for piercings. Alan was extremely knowledgeable and polite. He was very easy to talk to, explained everything I needed to know, and created an overall great experience. I had only come in for info, but actually left with a nasal piercing. He was very professional with the piercing and there was almost no pain. The jewelry selection was incredible! Lots of things to choose from with different design styles as well as price points. I will definitely be going there again with my daughter, even though we live in the Knoxville, TN area. It is worth the drive!!”
“We stopped in to have Whit evaluate a few pieces of jewelry. He was very friendly and entertaining as he evaluated our pieces. We were very impressed with his knowledge and honesty letting us know which pieces we were gold and which were not. He honestly explained his pricing and we left feeling very happy to have found him and will definitely be back!”
“I had my engagement ring band redone due to it wearing thin. Spicer Greene made the process easy and it was ready in 2 weeks during the holidays. I will definetly being using them again for any of my jewelry needs.”
“Such pretty and delicate jewelry. When planning my trip to Ashville, I saw this shop online. I made a point to check it out and was not disappointed. A bit of a confusing area, but if I found it, so can you. It's upstairs at River Station. Purchased 3 pieces, and they're beautiful. Great prices too.”
“Without hesitation DC Creasman is best place in town to get jewelry repaired! They do an excellent job with great care, at a fair price with good turnaround time.I highly appreciate what they’ve been able to fix and alter for me, including converting my late grandmothers antique screw-back earrings into posts so that I can use & appreciate a treasured heirloom.”
“We stopped in a few weekends ago just to look and ended up having the absolute best experience purchasing an engagement ring. Ashley helped us that day and she was an absolute joy to work with. She explained all of our options and was patient as we tried rings on and made our choice. She helped us through the financing options and even spoke with the onsite jeweler in order to have our ring ready for pickup the same day! Then the final above and beyond moment was when we walked back into the store to pick up the ring and she presented it to us on a flower bouquet! It was our anniversary weekend and Ashley, along with the rest of the Jared employees, made it one that we won’t forget!”
“To say that I'm thrilled is an understatement! Andy and the team at Marthaler have now designed several custom pieces for me. The first being these two beautiful bands, they took my vision and made it an amazing reality. After 27 years of marriage I wanted to make use of my husband's gold wedding band and my original wedding band. My husband has switched to silicone rings so I asked Marthaler to use the gold to make a ring for me and they did it and did it so perfectly. They are now fixing the prongs on my engagement ring and making another custom ring and I cannot wait to see the results! Their design process is great and they will print a 3D print for you so you can see it before it's done. They are also wonderful people, I highly recommend visiting their showroom.”
“Love love love this store! All things handmade from all over the world. We visit every time we pass through Asheville. Can't wait to visit the Nashville store”
“Amazing customer service and a great business to support! I liquidated some precious metals and had a wonderful experience. The percentage they took was minimal and I feel good supporting a wholesome family business!”
“I'm very thankful for Laughter jewelry! I moved to Asheville from Florida in 2020 and all of my silver and gold jewelry was a mess. All of my watches needed batteries. They restored everything back to beautiful and were wonderful to work with. I enjoyed going into the store and browsing through the gorgeous diamonds. Very impressed”
“Purchase unique earrings and gorgeous Stephanie Ellis stack of rings. They shipped them quickly and are absolutely unique and lovely. No pressure and very supportive of the time it took for me to make a decision. Really love the shop and Marty.”

“Emma was the absolute best! She made a very special night for a friend and I and turned what could have been ruined plans into a special experience as another place id booked messed up some things. Happens but I'm glad it did as Emma was just amazing. Great instructor, kind but direct in feedback. She made sure you walked away with a quality piece and experience”
“Fantastic store. We stopped by on a trip to the mountains. It was unlike most antique stores we have been in. Everything was well presented and they had various things for every interest. I thought the prices were great. Staff were beyond friendly, and they had a coffee shop connected to it, what!? Can't wait to return on our next trip.”
“Jonathan helped us and he was very kind and informative. He went above and beyond and I appreciated that very much. Others inside the store could learn a few things about being kind from him, the manager wasn’t as kind and was rude to other employees.”
“Super cute little spot downtown. As I was walking, I noticed there are actually two locations on opposite ends. The workers were super kind of seems engaged in their own conversation. It was still very welcoming spot tho. I love the organization and the content of the store. Very classy, but it ranges from affordable too expensive. Seems like a great spot to get a gift. They have candles and jewelry/accessories and coding. Lots of little Asheville trinkets Apparently checking on Yelp gets to 25% off earrings which is super cool”
“This is a very cool place!! I wasn't sure what I would think of it the first time I went in, but it way exceeded my expectations! It is a consignment shop and the merchandise they have is very high quality. It would be easy to spend an entire day looking at all the things they have. It isn't a big place, but it is full of interesting and unique items. They have some of the best quality antiques as well as some newer things. This is probably my favorite consignment/thrift/antique store of all. The staff are incredibly nice. They also sell true farm fresh eggs. Great place, and I will be back many more times.”
“Best consignment store I've both shopped and consigned with. Curated consignment has high end brand names and staff is very knowledgeable. The boutique is well laid out and easy to shop. Also, it's super clean. No cheap scented candles.”
“I searched and searched for the Mystery Machine shoes by Irregular Choice and finally found them, however, the timing was not ideal. I was between paychecks and do not use credit cards so I had already spent my budgeted allowance for clothing/shoes. I called and spoke to Renee. She offered a solution so I was able to purchase them when I got paid again. I also prefer to support small business and highly recommend purchasing from them!”
