Catering
The Biltmore has always been known for culinary excellence, with gardens that have been carefully pruned to produce the finest and freshest ingredients for creating memorable meals. Each of the estate’s 15 dining facilities, parlors and cafes sources ingredients from the estate’s grounds, creating a true farm-to-table experience for diners. The on-site catering team can create custom menus that range from light bites to gourmet multicourse meals, paired with wines from grapes grown and blended on the estate. The culinary team also works with off-site vendors to acquire the freshest local ingredients, including farmstead cheese, grass-fed pork and mountain trout. Alcohol is available.
Before and After Events
Groups have numerous entertainment options while attending meetings or events at the Biltmore.

From guided hikes and private wine tastings to days spent luxuriating at the spa or riding horseback through the hills, there is never a dull moment at the Biltmore.
