This was an absolute blast. Tons of fun. I was blown away with how versatile and improvisational the 3 performers were, all of them constantly switching instruments and roles. Drinks were great, and the music kept me there long enough to take down 4 of the buckets. They were all good. Drinks made very well. Talent like this was amazing to enjoy, and is definitely somewhere I have to go again when I return to this city.

This place is my favorite bar, ever! The show that was put on was the best I have seen. There was like 5 people and they could play a ton of instruments and sing. Like I cant explain how awesome this place was, you need to go see it! Im not sure how often the show is performed, like every night or just on the weekend. But totally worth it.There is a $5 cover charge but again worth it! Drinks are decently priced and the bartender was heavy handed last night just go, you wont be disappointed.

This is the best option on fourth street for a night out with good live music and drinks for the value. There was one female singer who was amazing and kept the crowd going all night. There were four performers rotating piano, guitar, and singing. The bartenders give a double pour for a single price. A fun place with a good crowd.

Every year we attend a company function and every year it isnt a complete trip without stopping in at Howl at the end of a long conference day. Staff is always very prompt and stays on top of drinks even when the place is packed and of course the musicians are always great. Definitely something to experience if you dont have one where you are from and are traveling to the Louisville area.

Our experience at Howl At The Moon was great this evening! It was just another date night at a new spot, but it turned out to be such fun! We absolutely loved the drink menu but the musicians were phenomenal!!! I could not believe how diverse they were in the genres of music and each one could play multiple instruments!Our waitress was adorable! Very beautiful, personable and inviting! She wasn’t pushy when it came time to order drinks & she was knowledgeable in the spirits.There were high & low tables available as well as the bar. Everyone just seemed to have a great time. The band was interactive! A few birthdays, a few bridal parties were present. I really enjoyed being able to request music to be played.All in all, this was a great time! A great location! Great drink prices & great service!

This place has a lot of potential however sound quality is very poor and takes away from the experience. Volume of the pianos needs to be higher to truly enjoy the experience and the music needs to more piano focused with less emphasis on the drums and the guitar. I was expecting a piano duel bar, not just another band.

Friendly service at the bar and table. The music was a good mix of genres and the crowd was up dancing and having a great time. A good place for a night or with friends.

First night there we had a blast drinking and dancing. Second night there was a private party for the company we work for. Wait staff did an excellent job of making sure the drinks were always full.

Lots of fun and the piano players and singers where awesome!!! Love there bucket drinks!! A little pricey but it had top self liquor so well worth it. You can share it with friends or drink it all your self. You will get really drunk off the one we got which was called the ADIOS MOFO!!! 64OZ of great liquor!!

This place is a hoot! The crowd is as much the entertainment as the musicians. The drinks are reasonably priced and the service is outstanding. Be prepared its not a quiet little piano bar - this is a high energy, loud, crowd active experience. A wonderful place for a night out with friends.

Our waitress Bernadette was amazing. So friendly and on top of everything. We absolutely loved John Ellis on the mic! Hes truly a spectacular talent. There was another preformer whos name we missed but she rocked the mic and the dance floor. Such a fun time.

Its hard to not have a good time here. The energetic and talented performers really connect with the audience. Cocktails are a little pricey especially since there is a cover but that might explain why I saw so many buckets of beer. But you cant put a price tag on fun.

Went here as part of my friends bachelor party and booked some tables in advance. I accidentally booked too many tables but Carol did a great job sorting it out and the value of the package was great. Pianists were very talented and we all had a great time. Definitely recommend stopping by if youre in town.

This is my favorite spot in downtown Louisville and I always go when we’re in town. It’s always a blast and the performers are ridiculously talented. Wasn’t super thrilled with the $10 cover charge (didn’t have that last time I had been) especially when you are not likely to get a table and have to stand all night.

Review №23

Absolutely TALENTED group of artists. Able to sing and play any song requested. My grandpa is still taking about how much fun he had. Great selection of drinks at fair prices. Clothing is casual to cocktail. Dancing option (not many were dancing when I was there in a weekday).

The musicians are so talented and have a great stage presence. They make the songs and whole experience lots of fun! They can play just about anything you throw at them and they each can play multiple instruments. What a fun place!

Depends on the night. Ive been there when it was packed and crazy and had a blast. Other nites it was dead early and at prime time a couple tables of tour bussers were the only other patrons. Call ahead and ask if they have seating for 30. If they say yes without hesitation, might want to go elsewhere that night.

The musicians are great. But the servers and manager are racist. For example, when I was trying to politely leave a feedback, the server told me, “I am not interested in your feedback.” When I contacted the manager he said “I can not discipline my employees here”. He didn’t even acknowledge, forget apologizing. In my busy day job as a doctor, I do my best to save lives without a hint of discrimination. When I come out to unwind at this place, I am humiliated due to color of my skin. This is so heartbreaking.

Loved it! There are literal buckets of drinks. Plus piano battles! I even won a free drink ticket for dancing out like I was Tina Turner! If you are looking to relax with a drink, be entertained, or go a little wild.... this is the place!

If youre looking for talented and interactive live entertainment then Howl At The Moon is the place for you. Band is very receptive to the audiences energy and requests, and theyll play anything. Staff is all very friendly and seem happy to be there. Drinks may be a bit pricey but youre really paying for the enjoyment of being at this clean, fun, and rockin bar. Really cant say enough about the entertainment.

Review №34

If I could rate a zero I would. I was asked to leave because a friend fell and hurt her knee. We had two drinks (because it’s a bar) but we were not “drunk” as they called us. I was told I’m “entitled.” That bouncer does not know me and that couldn’t be further from the truth. I asked to talk to a manager but a manager never came. This is the worst place to go in Louisville where they not only insult their customers, but have total lack of concern.

We had one of the best times of our lives. Weve been to a lot of drinking establishments and never have saw so many talented musicians. I highly recommend that you stop in here for a good time.

This place was so much fun. Music was very wide ranging and the musicians were amazingly talented and entertaining. Music ran the gamut from 50s to rap to rock to obscure classics. We plan to spend our second evening in Louisville here. Best night out my wife and I have had in a long time.

The music was great, but the establishment reminded me of an oversized dive bar. The musicians are better off somewhere else. They got a lot of talent they are wasting there.

Review №42

I have never had so much fun at a bar before! Howl at the Moon is so much more than just a bar though. It is literally half bar/half concert. We made table reservations. Totally worth it. Our server Frankie was Ah-mazing!! We loved her. We never had an empty drink. The entertainers were SO FREAKING AWESOME!! I could not believe the level of talent those people had. From Beyonce to Charlie Daniels Band they could do it all!! Outstanding!! I could seriously go on and on and on! I will be back!! No doubt!! So much fun. We visited on Friday October 25 2019.

Review №43

Cool place! It was pretty sparse as most of downtown is. I would give it 5 stars if the drinks werent as expensive. It wasnt anything crazy but still felt on the expensive side. The 2 pianists were incredible! Our group had a blast! And the drummer was unbelievable!! Anyways, we are headed back in the day or 2! Great time

My husband has explained to me that regulars shouting tunelessly along with the able musicians is business as usual at a piano bar. So I guess I need to quit thinking of it as a chamber of horrors.

I wish they sold food. Great for our bachelorette party, but we had to leave and come back for food. They took care of everything else and my group has a blast. They even made me a fancy virgin drink (on the house!) Because I was the pregnant DD. The musicians were hilarious and extremely talented. Loved it.

Review №63

This is NOT dueling pianos. This is really going somewhere to see live music. These people are talented musicians, but there is very limited audience participation. I have been to piano bars billed as such across the country and this is NOT what it is billed outside. If they change their format and decide to focus less on a performance style and more on the crowd, it will be a lot more fun for everyone (and they will make exponentially more money). The drinks were WAAAAY too expensive and we knew the format was bad when we were leaving after two hours and no one was outside on a Saturday night. This was a holiday weekend. Change the format! Drop drink prices! This should not be karaoke-ish for your musicians. You have one guy who interacts with the audience and has personality. Keep him. He is great! Also, our server was great, but that wasnt enough to drive us up to 2 stars. This piano bar is not worth your time.

What a riot!! The musicians amazed me with all of their musical knowledge. I requested a song they didnt know, they went in the back and learned it in 15 minutes!! Super lively bar, good drinks and good staff. Overall my favorite bar, and we spent hours in there just because it was so fun. Will return on my next trip!

It was a fun atmosphere, our server was great and fun. Drinks were awesome as well, we got the bachelorette package, but my only issue is that they didnt call the bride to the stage like the package said. It was a real downer and it was the only issue we had. If I had known that they werent going to call her to the stage, I would have picked a different package.

This is the place to be for live music. And its not just pianos. There are multiple instruments in action at Howl at the moon. Plus they take requests, so come prepared with the songs that will liven up the room and energize the crowd! Its always fun when your song gets played.
