This place is the definition of the "hole in the wall". Much like "Joe's Generic Bar" of Austin, Tx…read morein the late 80's (situated next to the Hollywood Favorite "Black Cat Cafe"), Even Odds is a relic in time, a Southern Rock and Roll "Junkers" classic that you might be afraid to enter (if you don't understand Southern Culture and down home junkin). You can get you some southern comfort from Patty serving the bar if you are able, or consider some bar food that delivers on the ol' cliche "comfort food". On one night I visited, the spirit was hospitable, as if if southern hospitality (long dead in Atlanta) greeted me like a friend of years ago & not seen in a generation. Partly the blaring southern rock in the bare rafters above, partly the cigarette smoke from a Molly Hatchett concert years ago ringing freedom in your ears in an age when responsibility was truly owned, and smoking a personal responsibility (I am not a smoker) - reminding me of a smoky concert hall with Danny Joe Brown or Phil McCormack jamming to the sounds of his own backstreet band. And you can jam out. Hook your smartphone up to the bluetooth connection to the sound system and you are now the bar's dj. But be forewarned, the crowd around you will make sure to critique your selection of music. I selected Blackfoot's Highway Song which was visibly applauded followed by some Nugent and then the Allman brothers. The service was not fast but it was hospitable. Don't come here if your clock is not set to "Lake time" as the atmosphere is totally laid back. I selected the rueben from the menu and it was delish- only somewhat foiled by wafting cigarette smoke. Needless to say, don't come here if you have a problem with that as you will be miserable. BUT, if you want to experience a trip back in time to a place where Ronnie Van Zant could suddenly appear out of time at the bar, or Greg Allman, or Danny Joe Brown ; if you have some nostalgic memories of smoky bars and pool halls on 6th Street in Austin Tx, good food and good people (There's good people in Alabama), this may be the place for you.

The food quality is spotty and service was slow. Some may be fine with it, but the dense smoke is a…read moremajor turn off. The seating layout is not great. There were a lot of promises of renovating and bringing more amenities to the venue. They never materialized to any real degree.
