Smokehouse – River
Serving up Deliciousness
12 Bones River is housed in a renovated warehouse in the River Arts District, where 12 Bones first made a name for itself. Enjoy the best BBQ and Brews in all of Asheville while taking time to admire the graffiti murals on our outdoor patios. Don’t forget to leave a message on the walls of the dining room to remember your visit. Our proximity to the French Broad River greenway and multiple art studios offers more than your standard dining experience.

What's Cookin'
We make everything from scratch. Our meats are smoked long & slow over select hardwoods, oak and cherry. We don’t believe there’s only one right style of barbecue and we’re not big on rules. You’ll find our recipes draw inspiration from all over the South (and sometimes the North), from old family favorites to new ones we’ve just whipped up. We believe in simple ingredients & lots of care in preparation make the best food. Some things on the menu change daily… if you can’t live without a rib flavor you had 2 weeks ago then holler, we’ll make it again if you make enough of a fuss!
