We’re taking dinner on the road tonight! 🚗🍽️

Kaye’s will be closed for dinner service this evening while our crew takes care of an off-site event.

But don’t worry, we’ll be back bright and early tomorrow for our Saturday Breakfast Buffet from 8 AM to 2 PM! 🥓🍳🥞

Come hungry, y’all! We’ll take care of the rest! ❤️

🍂 It’s fall in the High Country!

And if you’re coming up to peep at the leaves, make sure Kaye’s is part of the plan.

After all, the leaves aren’t the only High Country tradition worth making the trip for. 😉

Come see us for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and if you’re here for the weekend, you definitely don’t want to miss our Saturday Breakfast Buffet or Sunday Brunch.

Beautiful leaves. Mountain air. Really good food.

Sounds like a pretty great fall day to us. 🍁

Come on by, y’all. We’ll be here!

Two years ago, Helene changed our little corner of the mountains in ways none of us could have imagined.

Today, we’re especially grateful. Grateful to be here. Grateful for the people who showed up for one another. Grateful for every person who helped us clean up, rebuild, reopen and find our way forward.

We also know that, two years later, not everyone’s recovery is complete. Today we remember what was lost, recognize how far our High Country communities have come and keep those still rebuilding in our thoughts and prayers.

From our family to all of you, thank you for being part of the strength that brought this community back. ❤️

🇺🇸 Labor Day calls for a little extra breakfast! 🇺🇸

Tomorrow we’re giving the grill a workout so you don’t have to. 😄 Join us for our special Labor Day Breakfast Buffet — come hungry and leave the cooking (and the dishes!) to us.

🥞 Labor Day Breakfast Buffet
📅 Monday, September 7
🍳 Breakfast & Lunch: 8am–2pm
🥪 Our regular lunch menu will also be available as usual.

Because the best way to celebrate not working is letting someone else make breakfast. 😉❤️🤍💙

Quick heads-up, friends! 💛

We’ll be closed for dinner tonight as our team heads offsite for a special event.

And don’t forget, Friday dinner is 5 to 8 p.m.! 🍽️

Thanks for understanding, and we’ll see you soon!

Best of the Best. Again. 🏆❤️

Well… y’all did it again.

Kaye’s By The River has been named Best of the Best in Avery County for 2026 - and in Four Categories!!

1. Best Bruch Place
2. Best Buffet
3. Best Vegetarian Restaurant
4. Best Gluten-Free Restaurant

We could tell you how proud we are of the award, but honestly, the part that means the most is you.

Our customers, friends, neighbors and this amazing community continue to show up for us, cheer us on, and make Kaye’s part of your lives. And for that, we are incredibly grateful.

Eight years of Best of the Best awards is pretty special. We couldn’t have done it without you.

So from our family to yours… thank you. ❤️

Now come celebrate with us. We’ll save you a seat!

The Big Dig is officially DONE! 🎉

The cones are gone.
The digging is done.
And best of all… the parking lot is BACK! 🙌

Kaye’s is open as usual, and there’s no construction obstacle course required to get to your breakfast, lunch or favorite Kaye’s meal. 😉

Thanks for putting up with us while we got things fixed. We appreciate your patience!

Now come on by. We’ll see you in the parking lot!

08/15/2026

NEW! And yes… we’re pretty excited about this one. 😍

Say hello to our Cinnamon Berry Rolls!

Warm cinnamon, sweet berry filling, and a creamy cream cheese frosting… basically everything you want in a breakfast roll and absolutely nothing you need to share. 😉

They’re piping hot and ready, so come by Kaye’s and treat yourself.

Because sometimes breakfast needs a little extra frosting.

🚧 A Little Parking Lot Heads-Up!

Kaye’s is OPEN and ready to see you!

We’re doing a little repair work on the main parking lot, so if things look a bit more “construction zone” than usual, don’t worry. We haven’t gone anywhere.

Additional parking is available across the street while the work is underway.

The drain system work will resume next Tuesday after we close at 2 PM and is expected to be completed by Wednesday.

Thanks for your patience while we get things fixed up!

Come on in. We’ll save you a seat. 💙
