Asheville Welcomes Back Favorite Hangouts: Sovereign Remedies and Walmart
Asheville, get ready to roll out the red carpet for some exciting openings in town! After a challenging time for many businesses, some beloved spots are making their grand comebacks. If you’re looking for a great excuse to step out, mark your calendars! The Sovereign Remedies cocktail bar is set to unveil a brand-new chapter in its story on March 21, right on vibrant Market Street. This stylish cocktail haven is coming back under new management, featuring a team of familiar faces who are eager to treat you to creative concoctions and delightful atmosphere.
Grand Reopening Festivities Await
Grab your friends and join the festivities for Sovereign Remedies! The grand reopening event kicks off at 4 p.m. and runs until 10 p.m. on Friday. It’s the perfect chance to sample some refreshed drink menus, enjoy live music, and reconnect with your favorite bartenders. With an energetic vibe and a lineup of refreshing cocktails, it’s an event you won’t want to miss!
Before you head outdoors, though, be aware of some serious fire risks present in the western Carolinas at the moment. An extreme fire danger alert is in effect, and local officials strongly advise against any outdoor burning. On top of that, be mindful of the Air Quality Action Day currently in place due to poor air quality from wildfire smoke. It’s a good idea to stay inside if you can, especially if you have health conditions affected by smoke exposure.
The Comeback of Walmart: A Boost for the Community
Ribbon-Cutting and Community Spirit
This reopening comes with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and will also highlight a special grant presentation to the MANNA FoodBank, ensuring that even amid struggles, the spirit of community support continues to thrive. Initially, the store will offer general merchandise, with items ranging from clothes and electronics to toys and non-refrigerated grocery products. Customers looking for fresh groceries will have to exercise a little more patience, as full operations are expected to commence later in the spring.
Exciting New Dining Options
As the community lifts its spirits, there’s even more to celebrate with the news that the beloved restaurant Chai Pani has reopened at a new, larger location at 32 Banks Avenue. After bidding farewell to its previous spot on Battery Park Avenue last May, the new digs span over 8,000 square feet, allowing for a much larger customer base and event space compared to the old location.
This successful transition is yet another sign of growth for Asheville’s rich culinary scene, with Chai Pani serving up its vibrant and delicious offerings to many more eager diners. So whether you’re looking to sip a refreshing cocktail, tackle the shopping list with Walmart’s reopening, or indulge in some exquisite Indian street food at Chai Pani, Asheville is truly bouncing back!
As we embrace these exciting milestones, let’s remember to support our local businesses while ensuring we stay safe and healthy amidst the lingering environmental concerns. Here’s to a bright future ahead in Asheville!
