I ordered a round here for my friends and gave the bartender $40 on a $24 check. After a minute or two of waiting for my change, I reminded the bartender that I was expecting some $ back(I had to yell slightly because of the band). He went on serving other patrons so I tried getting his attention again. 5 seconds later I was asked to leave because "no one yells at the bar!"... No questions asked. I quickly realized why I had avoided 4th St. Live for the longest time. Literally every other bar district in the city is better, so don't waste your time. Avoid this tourist dump that will apparently kick you out and steal your money in the process.

After our evening at Louisville Palace Theater we wanted more entertainment before heading to our hotel. While we were shocked that they are charging $10/person cover charge we decided to enter (at 845p) as we always enjoyed this venue. Older Couple infront of us decided not to pay and left. Since place was semi dead, seating was available, which was great, Courtney our server was top notch and the drinks didn't disappoint. My wife & I had great night here. Thank you. Shout out to the entertainment staff, did a great job singing ACDC, our late friend Harold favorite band.

Great atmosphere. Good drinks. Great service. The entire band is awesome and very talented all are multi-talented playing instruments. I had a very fun time. If you're down on 4th Street it's a great place to go.

Another fun time at Howl at the Moon. Been to a few of these in various cities and this one was nice because it was nowhere near as busy as the others while still being busy enough to have a good time. Recommend checking out if you like like music and drinking too much

Our favorite place to hang out, even if it is 6 hours from home. Howl at the Moon never disappoints. Can’t wait for our next trip.

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.

If you're looking for a night out with great music and drinks, Howl at the Moon is the place to be. This awesome piano bar is definitely one of my favorites, with a fantastic atmosphere and reasonable prices on drinks. The highlight of Howl at the Moon is definitely the live piano music. The pianists are incredibly talented and know how to get the crowd going. You can request your favorite songs and sing along with your friends. It's the perfect spot for a celebration or a fun night out with friends. The staff at Howl at the Moon are also very friendly and welcoming. They go out of their way to make sure you have a great experience, from recommending drinks to taking requests for songs. The prices on drinks are also very fair, which is always a plus. The only downside to Howl at the Moon is the limited seating. If you're planning to go on a busy night, you might have to stand for a while before a table becomes available. However, once you find a spot, it's definitely worth the wait. Overall, I would highly recommend Howl at the Moon to anyone looking for a fun night out with great music and drinks. The piano bar is awesome, the staff is nice and welcoming, and the prices are very reasonable. Just be prepared to stand for a bit if it's a busy night!

If you go here, do NOT leave an open tab! I went here on 8/18 and ordered 3 buckets, ~$32 a piece. I was told initially by a bartender as I was ordering that if I don’t close my tab before I leave, it will be automatically closed at the end of the night with 20% gratuity. I was completely fine with this and didn’t bother closing out when I left… until I looked at my card statement the following Monday and saw a charge for $318. Emailed the bar and spoke with the GM who said that a zero was “accidentally” placed on the end of the tip changing it from $21 to $210… GM was quick to fix the issue which was nice, but I don’t see how whoever closed my tab accidentally gave themselves over 100% tip when it was supposed to be 20%.

Such an amazing night. We were in town for a landscape show and they were handing out tickets for free cover while the 4th street concert was going on. Once the concert ended we went in. They had an amazing girl playing the piano most of the night. Drinks are reasonably priced. Great for the 20’s to 40’s crowd. Small space, but very personable. Wish we had one of these in Canada. Such a wonderful environment & concept.

$10 per person cover charge. Not many places to sit in the bar had to sit on the patio where the beggers kept coming up and asking for money. The pianos were great though.

Mildly infuriated. Went to the bar and ordered a Jack and Coke. Bartender said "No problem" and started making it. I noticed he was pouring the soda from a blue bottle. When he brought it over I said "That's not Coke". He took my card and said "No we use Pepsi here". So does every bartender there just think it's ok to make a drink that's close enough to what someone orders? I don't like Pepsi, so essentially I ended up buying a drink I didn't even order or want. He didn't even seem concerned with it, didn't even pause to take my card and charge me for it. Even McDonald's will tell you they don't serve Pepsi when you order it. Nice to know the standards for your bar staff are lower than that.

Piano players were competent singers and players, but there was no much connection with the audience. Kind of felt like they were playing the songs rather than performing. There was little dialog or repartee between the “dueling” piano players.

Great drink selections and friendly staff. The musicians the night we were there were incredibly talented. All rotated between pianos, guitars, drums, vocals, and more. Incredible entertainment.

Most of the dueling piano performers are very talented. We snagged a table so it was comfortable and good people watching. The energy is high, expect to be dancing and yelling "what?" to whoever you're there with.

Attended New Years Eve Party, the music/entertainment was great, it made the night. The included food and beverage was just ok, I was definitely not really impressed with that part of our evening.

We ALWAYS have a great time at Howl at the Moon! Go have a bucket drink with your friends and sing and dance the night away. Donate a few bucks and say something special on the mirrors.

Excellent bartenders, kind and courteous servers, n the patrons make the atmosphere friendly. The band playing was awesome. The one female singer can really sing and the rest of the band was pretty awesome themselves. Will definitely go back next time I'm in Louisville

We were so happy to find this place while in Kentucky! We love it so much we went for 3 nights straight! The atmosphere is amazing with the extremely talented musicians! The service and staff was beyond wonderful! I 100% suggest visiting if you are in or around the area!!!

We had a wonderful time! Could not have been more fun. Our reservations got us a wonderful table and the entertainers were simply great!!

Reserved a table for my son's 21st birthday. We had the best time. Staff is great the band was awesome. So engaging With Their audience. Everyone there made his day special for him. Thank you all so very much.

Such a fun experience! We sang soo much and the entertainment was amazing! Great voices, great musicians, and the drinks were delicious 😋 A must to start or end to your night out in downtown Louisville 😀

It’s a pretty fun experience if you want both karaoke and live music vibes. Drinks are reasonably priced, about $6 for a 16oz beer. My only problem was the cover. $20 per person?? I know we were there on a Saturday night, but basically we felt like we had to stay there because the cover was so damn high. It really ruins the atmosphere of 4th Street Live when every individual bar charges a cover, and I think that’s why it’s not really popular anymore.

Great atmosphere and friendly atmosphere! Drinks were priced well and I loved the 86oz drink!

Talent was good. No where to sit. They were reserving tables but Noone was sitting at them.

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 can't explain how awesome this place was, you need to go see it! I'm 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 won't be disappointed.

Fun night out with my co worker's

Fun place. Good music. Reasonable drink prices

We loved the place even tho it wasn’t buzzing but the atmosphere was still great and the drinks and band super good.

Whoa boy...we had such a fun night at Howl the Moon! The musicians were so much fun and incredibly talented! The drinks were super yummy and the service was great! We might move to Louisville just so we can hang out here more!

Not a review but a question. I’m coming from Cincinnati and taking a trip to Louisville this weekend and would like to stop by here. My only concern is that I recently turned 21 and just got my ID flipped and was given a temporary paper license until my new one comes in the mail. Will this be an acceptable form of ID? Just don’t want to make the long trip if I’m going to get turned down.

So much fun! Live music and lots of laughs. The Bar service was great. They were busy but we didn't wait. It was a great time!

John (Jon?) the bartender at the back bar was amazing and had great information on how to best enjoy our vacation in Louisville. Music was great and awesome drink selection. Definitely will be back!

Super fun atmosphere. Suppeeer crowded tho, which is to be expected. We went on a Sunday evening around 10. We just hung around to hear a song or two, so I can't really comment on the food or service!

10/10 would recommend. Loved the music all the drinks were amazing. Staff was very friendly and took care of us. I felt very safe with the entire staff. Got to meet guests without feeling uncomfortable. Great place!

My fiance and I had a great time. music was good . Good place to kick back and have a drink with live music.

We LOVE this place! It's dueling pianos with a full band of musicians that rotate around and can play a wide array of instruments and can literally play any song you request!- IT'S AMAZING! Our server was very attentive and really sweet! It's just a blast and has become our favorite place and we can't wait to go back tonight❤️

My wife and I with 2 friends had an amazing time on January 13,2023 for my wife's birthday. We made a table reservation with Libby, so helpful. The musicians were fantastic, got to talk with a few of them what great people. They young ladies that played everything, sang, and played the fiddle is so talented, please let her try out for the voice or American idol. What a great show.

Not having the side bar open was super inconvenient. We brought a large group and the security was giving us a hard time with the cover for no reason. The live band was mediocre. We went to come back on Thursday, realized it was the same band and turned around to go to PBR.

Love this place..pours were pretty decent and the crowd was awesome.

My wife and I have done New Years Eve at a different location every year since we met. Never have we had so much fun. Howl At The Moon will be our spot from here on out. Everything was fantastic. The food, drinks music and party were all over the top. The talent of the band members was unbelievable. See ya next year!

Went to both the Fiday and Saturday evening shows. Glad we gave them another shot, as the sound was not tuned well on Friday, to the point where the voices of those with a higher pitch almost drove us out of there (think nails on a chalkboard). Luckily the sound was tuned with less tenor and more bass on Saturday. Overall, both shows were good, but no one performer really stood out as amazing like at some other piano bars. Don't get me wrong...everyone was trying hard and they were all good, and there were definitely some stand-out moments (Get Low on Friday) . I will say that their fiddle player does the best (and fastest) rendition of Devil Went Down to Georgia that I've ver heard...she was on fire both nights.

The entry fee was $10 per person or $50 for everybody even though there were 10 of us. That seemed strange, but the musicians were very talented and we had a good time.

Had such a great time! Went to Howl for our girls trip one night while we were in town and it was absolutely amazing. We got the rail seating which was such a great deal for those who wanted to seat and have our stuff safe. Our waitress was so attentive and patient with us throughout the night. The musicians were so talented and the whole night was just fantastic
