Can I Buy a Gift Card for Jack of the Wood Pub?
Updated
Yes. Jack of the Wood Pub sells gift cards, and the site presents them as a gift for people who enjoy great food, craft beers, live music, and a cozy pub atmosphere. The purchase path is the "Buy Gift Cards" option on jackofthewood.com.
What the Gift Card Covers
A gift card is positioned as a general present for the pub experience rather than a single item. According to the site, it suits lovers of:
- Great food
- Craft beers
- Live music
- Cozy pub ambiance
That framing matters if you are buying for someone who has not been to Jack of the Wood before. The pub describes itself as one of downtown Asheville's oldest and coziest pubs, established in 1997, with a selection of whiskeys, 18 rotating taps of local and international craft brews, and an award-winning menu of comfort food and elevated pub fare.
How to Buy One
- Go to jackofthewood.com.
- Find the "Gift Cards" section on the page.
- Select the "Buy Gift Cards" option to start the purchase.
The site does not list gift card amounts, delivery options, or expiration terms in the available material, so check those details on the purchase page before you buy.
Why It Works as an Asheville Gift
The pub markets the gift card as something that "embodies the spirit of Asheville." If the recipient already likes live music, that angle is concrete: Jack of the Wood says it was voted Asheville's #1 Bar for Live Music and runs a regular weekly schedule, including:
| Event | When |
|---|---|
| Old-Time Jam | Wednesdays at 5pm |
| Drew Matulich's Bluegrass Jam | Thursdays at 7pm, open jam at 9:30pm |
| Headline bands | Fridays & Saturdays at 9pm |
| Nobody's Darling String Band | Saturdays 4–6pm |
| The Bluegrass Boys | Sundays noon–2pm |
| Traditional Irish music sessions | Sunday afternoons & evenings |
A gift card lets the recipient pick a night that fits their schedule instead of committing to a specific show.
Good to Know Before You Buy
- The gift card is for the pub generally, so it can go toward food, drinks, or a night out with music.
- Some events have a cover charge — for example, one listed Friday show had a $10 cover at the door. A gift card does not necessarily cover that, so confirm with the pub if that matters to you.
- The site does not state whether gift cards can be used for cover charges, merchandise, or only food and drink. Ask before relying on it for a specific purpose.
If you want a gift tied to a specific visit, pair the card with a note about one of the weekly jams, like the Thursday bluegrass jam, so the recipient has a ready-made plan.
