mother bakery & cafe south slope

I loved this place! It is definitely more of an upscale place so the prices are higher but the food and drink were fantastic. The space is so open and fresh and it’s not too loud or quiet. This would be a great first date spot. The servers are very attentive! I will definitely be going back. It’s a great place to stay a while.

We came for dinner and everything exceeded expectations. Seems most people come for brunch / lunch but we say the menu for dinner looked really interesting and it did not disappoint. Started with the house baked focaccia with ramp butter - delicious. Next had the snap and snow pea salad with straciatella, prosciutto and mint which was so refreshing and then finished with the grilled shrimp with grits. Nice size shrimp and creamy grits - what else can you can ask for? Service was attentive and well paced. Highly recommend for a nice dinner on the south slope and would love to return for brunch or dinner again.

If I had the money, I'd attempt to go into business with the owners and bring this amazing delicious food, service, and their unique style to Greenville SC. I cannot wait to go back here for breakfast. The food was incredible. TRY THE QUICHE! The toasts were also wonderful. The only thing I noticed that was 'bad' was that their barista was over steaming the milk for lattes. We were not affected. Seriously, I'm considering going to Ashville for a day trip just to eat here again soon.

Cozy little spot with indoor and outdoor tables, outstanding breads and thoughtful, well-crafted cuisine. This is comfort food, elevated and served with panache. Having seen French omelettes on cooking shows, I’d wanted to try a restaurant version and this was the first I’d come across. Mother’s rendering was exquisite; I can now discern that the other omelettes in my life, while not without merit and good intentions, have been Seikos. This, my friends, was a Cartier.

Stopped in to Mother for the first time and I was blown away. Such an Asheville staple. The vibe is relaxed, yet sophisticated. Staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating. Food is absolutely delicious and unlike any other place I have dined at. I ordered the BLT and I can honestly say it was the best bagel and sandwich I have ever had. Definitely worth the stop!

Genuinely one of my favorite restaurant experiences. The food was incredible and is reasonably priced for amazing quality. Everything came out quick and very fresh. Everything we ordered was the best version of that food we've ever had. You can tell everyone who works there enjoys being there and cares about what they do and the food they make. Everyone was so kind and welcoming and funny. Laid back environment. Everything was extremely clean and well maintained and cared for. Me and my friends had a great time and will gladly come back.

Absolutely incredible dining experience. The owner was so hospitable and present. We had lots of laughs with the staff. I was told upon arrival the Lamb burger would change my life, and the statement held up.

You are glorious Mother. Fantastic coffee. Stunning desserts that were decadent and thoughtfully curated. Super dog friendly service and a great range of local treats.
