Step into the Jazz Age as The Great Gatsby comes to Belk Theater at Blumenthal Arts Center October 13-18. Located just one block from the theater and offering complimentary parking, The Asbury is the perfect place to enjoy dinner before the show.
Our themed three-course pre-show dinner menu celebrates the glamour of the roaring twenties, with dishes like Dapper Deviled Eggs, Gilded Beef, Flapper’s Fancy Lemon Bars and much more. The special menu is available nightly 5-6:15 p.m. for just $45 per person.
And there’s a little Jazz Age history right here at The Asbury: our home, The Dunhill Hotel, opened its doors in 1929, making it a fitting place to raise a glass to the era that inspired Gatsby. Park with us, then after dinner, take a short walk to Belk Theater for the show; complimentary parking in the Fifth Third Bank garage (behind the hotel) is available to all Asbury diners.
Want to make a night of it? The Dunhill Hotel offers a special rate for Blumenthal ticket holders.
