The Odd - Asheville

Very cute medium sized niche bar that has become a pillar of west asheville nightlife, counter-culture and LGBTQ+ safety.

Here's a local's honest opinion and perspective of the Odd. I have lived here 9 years, my experience across the board is that if the waitstaff recognize you, you receive amazing service, a great attitude and the Sunday ****** Mary's they are locally known for will be amazing. If they don't recognize you, service is substandard, attitude is horrible (you are invisible) and you certainly will NOT get the Sunday ****** Mary that they have been voted best of. It's been interesting to watch over the years who recognizes me and who doesn't. The only exception is the food, always good, always great service and treat everyone equally. It may be their niche to only cater to locals, however what good is that if they don't recognize you? I have tried hard to support this locally owned bar but after my last experience with an out of town guest, I will never go back nor take any of my out of town visitors.

Fun place with good folks, good drinks, hot food, karaoke night, a no judgement feel with a unique vibe!

Love this place and the drag shows. All the performances and performers are truly authentic and artistic.

We 've called multiple times (during business hours) today to find out information about the show tonight. The first time the call was answered, the lady was rude, didn 't know the answer to our question, and was absolutely unwilling to ask someone that might know. The next time the phone was answered, the person said hello and then sat the phone down and walked away. How does anyone find out information that is not on the website??
