Always a good time at Mad Myrna’s!! Great service, food & drinks! Been to 3 shows and never been disappointed. If you haven’t been there it’s a must go and see for yourself. Place has been remodeled (looks so nice). If no show go for the food and drinks the food portions are so huge and drinks are great!!!

Hubs and I went Myrna’s with another couple last Saturday night. So much fun! Good food, great drinks and the music at the show (Jesus Christ Superstar) was amazing! It’s always a fun night at Myrna’s.

Some friends and I watched the Diva Variety show, which I definitely recommend to anyone looking for a wild night. None of us knew what to expect when we attended and we were really overwhelmed by how loud everything was. The venue did have earplugs when we asked but by the time we had them, I was so overwhelmed that it didn’t help. We ended up leaving early but I do want to give Myrna’s one more chance to see if I can handle it.Overall Mad Myrna’s has a lively atmosphere, a strong pour, and talented performers. I recommend the bar and shows only if you like loud bright places or prepare ahead of time with earplugs.Edit 2 weeks later, change from 4 stars to 2:The more I recall my experience at Myrna’s the more violated I feel. I felt heckled for tips and it took me off guard that everything was so sexual. I just wish I had warning. I felt violated so many times. I also didn’t like that the costs weren’t upfront. As someone who has to budget outings, I wish the tips were just added into the table reservation. I was already weirded out that it was $20 for the table without taxes and fees, then $5 each to get in, then ofc we spent at least $30 each on drinks… not counting tips…. I also didn’t know the show was interactive and it made me feel uncomfortable because I even chose a table at the back. Although the security people seemed very nice, the bartenders were rude and didn’t even try to interact with anyone. Also the drag performers were encouraging people to drink and that made me uncomfortable because what about people practicing sobriety? I felt like this experience was closer to a strip club…. And I feel violated because that wasn’t advertised… also at one point the drag performers made fun of someone’s makeup and I didn’t like that. The audience and performers were also mostly white which felt weird. The drinks were also very over priced…. More club vibes than bar vibes,,. And so so loud. I don’t think I can’t handle going back… I feel uncomfortable just thinking about it… I was so excited to have a safe space in anchorage but mad Myrna’s is not for me.

I came here a couple of days ago and was met by some of the rudest staff I have ever encountered. On top of it all the food and atmosphere were so subpar its truly astounding how people still come here.

Had a great time at Rocky Horror and one other show before that. Great place to meet friends for a drink or dinner and see a show. The food really is great and service is excellent, can't wait to visit again.

Everything is amazing. The drag performers are so above and beyond talented and the bar staff does a phenomenal job with drinks. The food always tastes amazing and Tanya at the door is always pleasant and cheery. I love it there

TRASH!! GARBAGE!! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!It's so sad that this little blip on the map village only has 2 gay bars. Let me tell you why The Raven beats this dump by a very long shot...This place has $20 mocktales, they are super stingy with the alcohol but will not hesitate to overcharge you and they hate on their own community. LGBTQIA+ DOESNT EXIST HERE, EVERYTHING IS CENTERED AROUND THE SELF CENTERED DRAG SCENE!! That's why they look at you in disgust if you aren't dressed in drag. That right there should tell ya it's a place that's full of people that hate themselves and project that hate onto their patrons and others!Don't bother going to the weekly drag show. It's literally a tired, repetitive bore!! Just boys wrapped in hotel duvets literally BEGGING for tips on their hands and knees to a song of their choosing ??. Quite sad honestly. It's almost like visiting the homeless encampment down the street.They also like to kick people out for no reason. I literally was halfway thru my second beer and just tipped the bartender $20, that's more than the 2 beers I paid for! I have a very high tolerance for alcohol but they insisted and said I was being "drunk and belligerent" but just keep in mind I went by myself for some drinks, hubby stood home. He wasnt feeling well and nobody in this village has been friendly or inviting toward us anyway since we got here. So how could I be drunk and belligerent if I have nobody to talk to??? I was floored!! Lol When I called them from home to ask why again, they couldn't answer me with a legit reason, just kept passing the phone around. So I gave them a reason to 86 me for good. I can't stand people that hate on everyone else because they hate themselves.All in all, you aren't missing anything here. Like at all! Just a sad dumpster fire they call an "everyone's welcome safe environment". I'm surprised they don't choke everytime they say that phrase being that it's a TOTAL LIEDietary restrictions: I'm sure they tamper with the food in disgusting ways in that filthy kitchen. They don't use gloves or hairnets ALSO take their aprons to the restrooms with them. Seen the cooks on there a few times n none EVER washed their hands. I heard them tell other workers that they "are serving drunks, so they won't notice", but I did boys!

My friends and I came to this place to celebrate a birthday and have fun. It was my first time here and let me say not a good experience. First we wait in line to get stamped in and the girl with a green hoodie that says pink on it was rude. She didn’t smile or say anything just put her hand out for our money. We were there for the drag show and only had about four drinks within the three hours we were there. As well as food. We got waffle fries, pizza and cauliflower wings. As soon as we were done eating my friend thought she needed to get sick so we go to the bathroom and wait for her. She ended up being fine and not getting sick, but a girl with a black binnie on and acne scars on her face waited for her to come out and kicked all of us out for no reason. The big bodyguard or whatever you want to call him was useless and rude. He got three people to come block my other friend who is barley 100 pounds from coming inside to check on me because it was taking a while for me to close my bill. They also tried blocking my wife for no reason. My friend who was feeling sick from the food needed some water and they weren’t helpful with that either. I’ve worked in service and this is just horrible. Obviously it’s a problem here because there are multiple complaints. Something needs to change. Im originally from Arizona and have been to multiple gay bars. This one is by far the worst I’ve ever gone to and overpriced.
