"Distilling is still something of a new art in B.C. thanks to its antiquated, post-prohibition booze laws, which only got a refresh in 2013. Odd Society joined the first wave of new distilleries, and it has remained a must-visit and one of the most consistent producers of craft spirits, including gin, vodka, vermouth, and whisky. Check out the cute cocktail lounge at their East Van distillery, located in a converted motorbike garage, and road-test a few spirits before heading out to explore the many neighboring breweries of “Yeast Van.”" - Nikki Bayley

"Featuring small-batch craft spirits made with locally sourced ingredients, Odd Society is a local craft distillery nestled in the Port District of East Vancouver. The space is beautiful to say the least. And then there are the cocktails, which are second to none—you can actually taste the devotion to their craft in every sip. They also offer tasting flights so you can taste all their spirits before committing to a cocktail. If you’re into design, the branding is also bang-on. The vodka packaging in particular is one of my favs." - WoodType

"Locals Spirits Shine at Odd Society Tucked away in East Van’s brewery district, Odd Society make some of the city’s most interesting small batch spirits, such as their truly mouth watering Bittersweet Vermouth and their popular Crème de Cassis made with local blackcurrents. From Thursday to Sunday, they also have one of the city’s talented bartenders at the helm, mixing up a range of tasty cocktail treats using their own spirits. Definitely worth the trip across town, and you can pick up a bottle to take home."

My partner and I love Odd Society, and have visited for many celebrations. Their cocktail menu is creative and they often have tasty specials, featuring their brands of different spirits. Keep in mind that their food menu is limited, but the drinks are well worth the night out. This is a gem spot in our neighbourhood.

Very cosy bar area, especially on the leather seats. Tastefully decorated with Dim lights. I sat down sipping my whiskey flight, comfortably numb. Very friendly waitress who provided great recommendations.

Funky space and decent cocktails but wasn’t “wowed”. They have a happy hour til 6pm with $11 cocktails.

What a cool place! Stopped in here this evening and got the “comfy seats” to enjoy a whiskey flight while my friends each had a cocktail. We loved the decor, the casual background music, the knowledge of the servers and the drinks were fantastic. 🤩

My girlfriend and I stumbled upon this place yesterday. From the moment we walked in we were mesmerized. The ambiance, the decor, the music and the menu were all very well curated. We sat at the bar and had both Mia and Jules serving us. Both were incredibly kind and knowledgeable, giving us recommendations and chatting about the various events and tours they offer. We both ordered two cocktails each, and neither one disappointed. They were full bodied, creative and very tasty. I will absolutely be returning. Thanks Odd Society!

Both a great craft distillery and a creative world class bar, Odd Society makes for a wonderful way to spend time. It is only a short Uber from downtown Vancouver and well worth the trip. The cocktails are imaginative and flavourful, with complex well integrated flavours that highlight the spirits from this pioneering craft distillery.

I went there for part of a bachelor’s night and it was a perfect spot for spirits. There’s a good amount of seating considering it’s a smaller distillery and the atmosphere inside is bright macabre, I guess another word would be pleasantly odd. The drinks themselves are amazing. Between the cocktails to the whiskey and other spirits, no other place IMO beats it. The prices for the house brand spirits too are fantastic. I highly recommend going here, there’s great finger food here too featuring small batch ingredients from local artisans.

A fabulous experience in a quirky setting. I tried the tasting flight of 3 plus a cocktail named Oil Slick. The olives in a jar were a nice touch. Reasonable prices too, considering the high quality.
