Double D's Coffee and Desserts

Located at 41 Biltmore Avenue in Downtown Asheville, Double D’s offers coffee drinks, smoothies, and baked goods seven days per week. Upper deck and adjacent/patio seating are available, and specialty beverages rotate seasonally.
It’s a coffee bus! Need I say more?
Beyond the (admittedly alluring) novelty of ordering/consuming coffee in a converted double-decker bus, Double D’s offers a respectable selection of quality beverages. The flavored lattes and mochas (my wife is partial to the chili-spiced, and I will vouch for the lavender honey) fare best, and the baristas are efficient. For those in the midst of exploring downtown, the convenient location is another perk (pun not intended).
That said, there are a few drawbacks to making this your brew stop. First, the business is cash only. Next, should you arrive during a busy time, waiting in line can be an uncomfortable experience: the bus does not offer much in the way of aisle width or headroom.

Should you happen to have a few bills in your pocket and arrive at an off-peak time, Double D’s is well worth a visit. Under other circumstances, a more conventional cafĂ© may be a safer bet.
