Montford Rooftop Bar Marks 10 Years

Aug 12, 2026 12:39PM ● By WNC Business
The Montford Rooftop Bar, Asheville's longest running rooftop bar, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. Lining up with its milestone, the rooftop bar returned to its local producers roots earlier this year by doubling down on local spirits and ingredients with a thoroughly refreshed menu

Located on the eighth floor of DoubleTree by Hilton Asheville Downtown, The Montford helped usher in Asheville's rooftop dining scene nearly a decade ago. Since day one, the bar has built its menus around local farmers, breweries, distilleries and artisans, a philosophy first established by founding chef Philip Bollhoefer, now Vice President of Food & Beverage for Parks Hospitality. Today, that commitment continues under the leadership of Bollhoefer along with Chef & F&B Director Heather Hickman and Bar Manager Joel Abshier. 

Guests are invited to raise a glass during a one night celebration on Thursday, August 27, featuring anniversary pricing, local spirits-focused cocktails and specials, live music and a sunset toast.
