    I love this venue. Pleasantly surprised for my first concert there. Looking forward to the next one. Thank you for a great Josh Radins concert!

    Had a blast. Got there shortly after the doors opened, and grabbed two good seats at the bar. It is one of those where a billion pennies are urethaned into the bar top. Pretty neat. The venue has limited seating, so depending upon your show, you may wish to time your arrival accordingly. M^3 (the 3 gals behind the bar all had names beginning with M) were great. Super friendly, and able to assist my wife with her fruity beverage choice. Recommend sitting on the left side upon entering, as there is an overhead wall which affects sound quality according to a fellow who had moved from the right side.

    An amazing venue with a really nice space for attending intimate concerts. The space is rocking with the music, and lots of seating along with dance space. We had an amazing time listening to Native American EDM, which turned into a mini-rave! Really good prices and clean bathrooms that were kept stocked, some nice drinks and great staff will keep us coming back!

    This is the best bar in Bellingham HANDS DOWN! There are so many great shows that happen here and the environment is unmatched compared to anywhere else in this town. I am so thankful that we have the Wild Buffalo in Bellingham and I will continue to support this business as much as I can. P.S. there are too many amazing people who work here to mention but I will try to mention as many as possible: Bryan, Jody, Zubeid, Zack, Joey you guys are awesome. Please support this business, it makes Bellingham a better place.

    The buff is cheap and often has great artists. But unfortunately the security has a vendetta against women. Multiple times I have been in the bathroom and have been accosted in the stall by security personnel. Each time this has made me very uncomfortable and feel vulnerable in my experience there. I wish to go out and have a fun and liberating experience, only to be harassed by the male security guards in the BATHROOM of all places.

    Went to see one of my favorite bands here, the great part is that you really get to be up close with the venue, but the drinks are a little pricey. However more over and all around I highly prefer it to any of the other similar places in Bellingham as far as the night life goes. They really have some great artists come through too ..

    Keep it weird! The buff has a small intimate vibe for those who want to dance feet from the stage! Great for jam bands and funky electronic music.

    This place always has the best shoes and performances. Sometimes can be a long wait for a drink, so bring your friends to chat with while you wait! I love that they have a coat check here for just a buck or two.

  • 4/5 C.ell (. 6 months ago on Google
    Great venue, basically a hidden gem out in the open. Good atmosphere, good audio/visual, bar and seating. Good area, though parking can be a little tough. Good size.

  • 4/5 Ryan M. 8 months ago on Google
    Place was great. Staff was super cool. Drinks were so-so, but not bad for a concert venue.

  • 5/5 Danielle W. 5 months ago on Google
    One of my favorite venues across the country. And last night really sealed the deal. The staff and security were thoughtful and quick to help make sure I was safe after I told someone working behind the bar that there was a guy being creepy and how he kept trying to touch me inappropriately. The staff genuinely cares about the venue being a safe place!!! Plus, the sound is always perfect. AND the service from the door, to the bar, to the coat check is top notch.

    Been to two bands at this venue. Each time had an awesome time. No pictures from the first on this phone. But last band is photographed. A number of drinks were ordered all were tasty. It is spendy but the staff were all very nice.

  • 5/5 Nick M. 5 years ago on Google
    Small venue which is really cool because you get up close and personal with the artists. I saw The Wailers band here in September and it was a great experience. Tons of college kids and older generation. Everyone was dancing and having fun it was a good time. The drinks aren't too pricey either considering it is a concert venue.

    Nightwave is so much fun. If you enjoy 80's music, you should come to the Buff when Nightwave is in town

  • 5/5 Terry S. 4 years ago on Google
    We had a Sold Out Rock Show at at the Wild Buffalo House. The Owners and Staff cared for our Fans with great courtesy and respect. Great place to Rock and Roll

  • 4/5 Jessica Y. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the rare, still affordable places to go and see a show. Various dj's of various styles, bands from way back, and bands from now. Usually there's something one can dance to.

  • 5/5 Mitch W. 1 year ago on Google
    Meat Puppets and Mudhoney. Great double bill. Great rock venue. For those in LA, think Molly Malone's live room only double the width, higher ceilings oh, really good PA system and the bar is in the same location!

  • 5/5 Charles M. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing and courteous staff with great bartenders with cold drinks. Some bartenders even seem to know/practice a little bit of sign language which is much appreciated from the hard of hearing and perfect for a loud venue. Electric decorations and spacious area for small spot but definitely worth the visit.
