When we are in town, this is our required stop for breakfast! I’m partial to the Smoky Mountain Brook - smoked trout spread is yummy on a requested gluten free biscuit. I can’t attest to celiac safety as I’m only gluten sensitive, but it works for me. I like to eat the biscuit open face and save half the biscuit to slather on one or more of their fruit jams.
Anything Appalachai is awesome! The Chocolate Chai recipe is truly inspired!
There’s outdoor seating, a kid’s korner with toys & books. It can get busy but worth the wait in line.
I have visited this place a couple of times both by myself and with my non-vegan nieces and nephews and I love it here. A very friendly team who are kind and considerate. My nieces and nephews love the place even though they are super picky and not vegan. My favorite options are the apple fritter, the maple donut, and the donut holes which are gluten free. Just an all around great place, please give them a try!
Oooh this is a fantastic spot!! If you're not stopping by Cousins Cuban while visiting wnc you are most definitely missing out!! Menu is mostly all gluten free, the table hot sauce is super delicious and really should be bottled and sold, all the dishes were top notch and coffee was great too. Highly highly recommend!!
Pure and Proper has redefined what an elevated dining experience can be. From the moment you walk in, you’re not just a guest—you’re part of something special. The cocktail program is masterful—creative, balanced, and delivered with both precision and flair. The Negroni was a standout, but every drink on the menu is crafted with the same elevated attention to detail.
The food? Impeccable. The arugula salad was crisp and bright, the mussels layered with flavor and served with gluten free bread or sourdough, and the pork chop and pork belly were pure comfort, elevated to fine dining. The Brussels sprouts are not to be missed. And the chocolate flourless cake? A decadent finish that sealed the evening with delight.
But what truly sets Pure and Proper apart is the spirit of the place. The owner’s infectious enthusiasm radiates through design and decor and the staff, whose camaraderie adds a heartfelt, human dimension to the experience. It’s rare to find a restaurant where excellence feels so personal.
We’ll be returning often—not just for the food, but for the feeling. This isn’t just a great restaurant. It’s a place you want to be part of.
Would give a 3.5 if I could. Was just okay. Appreciated the fact that their crepes were gluten free but after ordering wished they offered a non gluten free option as they were just okay. Cheese tamale had about 2 quarter sized drops of cheese. Soup was good but overpriced. Pinot was good.
The food was fantastic, and the staff was very knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations. We showed up for lunch and got one breakfast taco (Migas) and 2 for lunch, Kirb Service and the Morita. Highly recommend stopping in for a bite any time of day if you’re roaming around Black Mountain. They have gluten free and vegetarian options marked on the menu as well. Oh, they have adult beverages too.
Fantastic spot for lunch! They have a seasonal menu with lots of options for vegan/vegetarian, gluten free and other allergies. The space is beautifully decorated and the patio is wonderful. Our Waiter was knowledgeable and very attentive.
Great people, great purpose. The prices are fair and the food is decent. Have yet to try any drinks, and have heard good things of the chai tea but less so of the coffee, mostly by locals. Appreciate the gluten free and other dietary options they have, the bread is store brought bread but other than that.
