The Grove Arcade is an iconic historic building in the heart of downtown Asheville, NC.

First opened in 1929, it’s now the home to a variety of boutique shops.

I like passing by just to admire the architecture.

My favorite place to stop in is the Battery Park Book Exchange and Champagne Bar.

my 4 top reasons to love this place (in no particular order):

1 – they serve champagne

2 – they have thousands of books

3 – you can sip champagne while perusing those thousands of books!

4 – they allow dogs

Needless to say, if you’re a champagne/book/animal lover like me, it’s quite easy to get lost there for a few hours!

Tell me– do books and champagne make you as happy as they make me?!
