No-frills neighborhood hangout hosting live bands & drag shows in a quirky vintage space.
This was such a fun and lively place. We were there this past Friday for their drag show. We were in town for a wedding. Every one was so kind. This is a very lively place. Great food and good drinks! I recommend the Philly, fries, jalapeño poppers, the sampler so you can try everything 😋 All of their food is really good! We will definitely be back! Side note: they do not have the Nachos anymore 😔
We visited the Odd during AVF Fest following recommendation from a friend and had a great time. The venue wasn't too busy but had a great vibe and felt well suited to rock and punk acts. Drink options were massive, including soft drinks, and between acts we tried the cheesesteaks which were shockingly good for $13 bar food. Wandering around after sets, it is absolutely worth enjoying the sheer craziness of the decor which quickly cemented this as our favourite local venue, to the extent we even grabbed one of their t-shirts. Definitely hoping to make it back for more gigs here, but there was also a great range of other events being advertised which makes it a great space. Also, don't forget to enjoy the murals and street art on the way out - they're great!
Easily our favorite bar during our trip to Asheville. Had a great time with great drinks and met great people. Loved the taxidermy, oddities, and general decor here. Recommend to anyone who's into the goth/punk/alt/metal scene. Loved the experience of trying their "The Blood of My Enemies" drink - cocktail out of a human skull. Super cool place. Will definitely go back any time we're in Asheville.
Holy hell this is my favorite place forever. I just GOT MARRIED & had my reception at The Odd! So my experience may be different than a quick visit but I PROMISE you will love this place. Tamy and every single person I had the pleasure of dealing with throughout my wedding planning was a total dream team. THE FOOD AND DRINKS - to DIE for! Like literally the best ever. No one could stop talking about it. Everyone is so beyond kind and welcoming and I felt so happy just stepping foot into The Odd. Cheers to MANY more visits throughout our years. This place will hold a special spot in my heart forever. Okay I’m getting mushy - but - just go. It’s all around the neatest place with the most AMAZING staff ever.
Loved it. Wish I could have stayed longer and watch a show here. Wife brought me here because I am an odd one indeed. Felt right at home . It was like I was back in my first apartment. Great food. Great atmosphere. Don't stay after dark or the vampires will suck your blood...
