Coyote Ugly Saloon in Cardiff

Come in with my partner around 8ish loved it but got told too come back after 9.30,10 where its busy we came bk after 12 and the bouncers well I say no more saying u had a private function witch I know u didn't as we was in before they started,it felt like if ya face didn't fit u don't get in and I was really looking forward 2 it Haswell gutted but 1st time when we got in the girls where amazing, think u need 2 look ya bouncers as bad rep them

Greeted by Faith and then Charlotte…Great customer service, professional, exceptional sense of humour and very welcoming. I recommend everyone comes here to experience the atmosphere and excitement. A++++++++

Amazing and I very best night club in Cardiff

Unacceptable and rude bouncers. When approaching another bouncer on the door (to ask who would I contact to complain) , I was immediately given stinking stares and rude attitudes. Your door staff are giving you an awful reputation.

i was in the bar last saturday for my friends birthday, it was our first time in cardiff so we didn’t know what to expect. we were very excited to visit as we had heard great things and had an incredible night apart from one experience i had at the bar. i waited 30 mins in the line with my friend for a drink and as i got up to the bar i asked politely for my drink of choice and the young girl looked at me and said no. me confused asked why and if there was possibly none of that specific drink left so i tried ordering something different. she said no again, i was very confused and she stared at me and in a very patronising tone said just the word water whilst making the letter W with her hands. i understand if they refuse service from people extremely drunk however i wasn’t anywhere near that level and it left me feeling very bad, confused and uncomfortable. i just think it was extremely unprofessional and should never have happened!!!

This bar has a fun gimmick and good service from eager staff which normally would be a fun night out, unfortunately I feel forced to write this review after a bad experience. I don't like to go out on town often but came here with some work friends for a celebration and had a good time. When we were leaving I heard one of the doormen make transphobic comments about my appearance to his friends and saw them smirking, which upset me for the rest of the night, I was too flustered to confront them, but they where 2 or 3 viking wannabe guys, though that describes most people doing that job. To be fair hink doormen are supplied by a 3rd party company so it's not like these guys will always be there, but saw on the internet that there'd been a pretty high profile incident here in the past, so maybe the bar doesn't vet the companies well? Though It's not like marginalised people I know are particularly trusting of them anyway. I do know LGBTQ friends who love this place so felt conflicted about writing this review, but I think I've got to help people keep safe.

great atmosphere staff lovely food yesterday at brunch was shocking waited ages and it was burnt pizza i have pics discussing

It's absolutely AWFUL. DO NOT GO IN for the afternoon drinks n food deal we have been here 40 mins no service at all what a joke rubbish by all means go in at normal times whatever

I preordered a table with 2 bottles of Prosecco and 2 pitchers of cocktails. Upon arrival, we were shown to a dirty table upstairs that other people were occupying. The lady said she would get rid of the other people, but didn’t even clean it. We were then handed two pitchers of cocktails - which was half our order and told to ask for the 2 bottles of Prosecco when we were ready. 2/3 of the way through drinking the cocktails, I asked the bar staff if I could have my Prosecco. The lady behind the bar (different to the one who originally took us to the table) said she would speak to someone. Half an hour later, we still hadn’t had the Prosecco, so then I asked again and I was told that we had already received our order… which I corrected her on and explained we hadn’t had the Prosecco yet. She said she would speak to someone. Another half an hour went by, the girl came to talk to the bar lady, but totally ignored me when I tried speaking to her, she eventually turned to me, I explained we hadn’t had the Prosecco yet and she said that we hadn’t finished our cocktails. I said that we had finished the cocktails and she argued that it doesn’t look like we had, I said “well we have and we want the Prosecco that I’ve paid for”. She then said she was taking the remaining cocktails away because we couldn’t have the Prosecco unless we had finished. This didn’t make any sense as it isn’t a bottomless brunch, it was pre paid alcohol and if I had gone to the bar there an then, I would have got the Prosecco. She then snatched away any last remaining drinks that people were still finishing off (and had been paid for), and disappeared. People were quite frustrated by this time, as we had been waiting for a long time and the way she removed our drinks was inappropriate and rude. At this point, I asked for the manager. In total we had been waiting for the prosecco for over an hour at this point. The manager came and she said she would “sort it out”. When I returned from the bathroom approx 10 minutes later, I was met with being taken outside by two huge security guards, which is ridiculous as I am a 5 ft 3 girl, all while Hannah - whom we had terrible service from, was hysterically laughing. Whilst in the corridor, they told me to hand over my phone to them, when I questioned this, they said that it was because I had taken a photo of a member of staff in a public place and they were calling the police because it was illegal. This was laughable and completely made up, not to mention that it isn’t even illegal to take a photo in a public place like dozens of ppl have done previously. I refused to hand over my phone (because it’s my personal property, they are strangers and by this point, their erratic behaviour and lack of providing my paid for bottles of Prosecco was concerning). I was then ejected without explanation of why we didn’t receive our bottles of Prosecco for over an hour. The service was absolutely diabolical, the girl was really lazy, obnoxious and rude. None of us were intoxicated or behaving badly. We had prepaid in good faith that we would receive the goods, service and in a timely manner. All in all, I would recommend that you don’t step foot in the place and certainly don’t pre pay for drinks. If you do have to go there, make sure you don’t bump into the girl in the photo, she isn’t great at her job.

Went for a quick bite to eat before watching the rugby . Ordered a pizza it was edible after I had taken all the burt pepperoni off. I did complain but was left with a manager with very bad attitude. No communication skills what so ever. If I hadn't been in a rush I would have sent it back. But I was very disappointed with the attitude of the manager.

Very lousy reception from the bouncers, to be avoided

The bar is good however the doormen/security agency they employ is atrocious. Unprofessional and unacceptable. Excess force, have witnessed them taking customers to the floor for absolutely no reason, escorting customers out for absolutely no reason other than from what I can see jealousy of male customers talking to female customers... Absolutely appalling. A new security agency is needed.

Je kiffe les soirées de ce genre, on s'est vachement amusé avec mes amis. Une super soirée entre kiwis à renouveller de plus belle

No one in there, we arrived going to order food & drink for 15 people and was told they wouldn’t serve us as we were intoxicated.. staff obvs wanted a quiet night!

Georgia was amazing made our night, made us feel like vips and really made the experience amazing, I would come back just to see her such a welcoming person, if going highly recommend u speak to Georgia amazing that’s all I can say

Can't beat a night out in Coyote Ugly! Great bar with awesome music, especially the rock genre they play from time to time. Food is great as well! Phil is my favourite.

Coyote Ugly is an absolute gem in the heart of the city. The moment you step in, you are enveloped in an atmosphere that is nothing short of magical. But what truly sets Coyote Ugly apart is the women who dance on the bar. These talented ladies are more than just dancers, they are performers who bring the bar to life with their energy and charisma. They make you want to get up and join them in their celebration of freedom and female empowerment. The ambiance at Coyote Ugly is electric, with a perfect blend of music, laughter, and good vibes. The girls are not only talented but also incredibly friendly, making you feel like part of their extended family from the moment you walk in. And let's not forget about the food! The chicken wings at Coyote Ugly are a must-try. Juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, they are a true delight for your taste buds. Pair them with one of the cocktails for a culinary experience that will leave you wanting more. What sets Coyote Ugly apart is its commitment to creating a safe space for women. It's not just a bar, it's a sanctuary where women can be themselves, express themselves, and feel empowered. Other ladies are welcome to join in the fun and dance on the bar, creating a sense of camaraderie and sisterhood that is truly special. If you're looking for a place that combines great drinks, amazing atmosphere, talented performers, delicious food, and a commitment to female empowerment, look no further than Coyote Ugly, Cardiff. It deserves to be celebrated and experienced by everyone!

Absolutely incredible place the atmosphere is amazing couldn't imagine spending a Saturday night anywhere else

I love this bar! I always feel welcomed the moment I walk through the door! Good priced drinks and delicious food! Not to mention the staff! So friendly and ready to help you with everything

Love this place!! Staff are so friendly and outgoing, I got invited up onto the bar and me and all my friends got to dance with them. Love the atmosphere and how it’s all about empowering women!

Came for bottomless brunch, our server was wonderful and super cheery, but clearly more staff were needed. We waited ages for our first round of drinks - so much so that we went to the bar to actually buy some which were made there and then in front of us, even though we had bottomless drinks for 90 mins. The pizzas were not good at all.

Well can only give a 1 star would give 0 if I could as I got refused entry due to being on my own. The bouncer Insisted all tho I thought he was joking, that no entry was aloud as I was just 1 person. Absolute disgrace I saw they showed live sports and wanted to watch it on TV but apparently this isn't allowed AS I WAS ON MY OWN? I would like a very good explanation as to the actions of why I was refused entry.

Fantastic place to socialise and to get a drink before and after the big game.

Didn't have any food but looked amazing didn't catch anyone's name but service was amazing atmosphere was brilliant next level experience. Loved it if I lived closer I'd come again. Thank u for a great night

For young people and that's it. There are girls dancing on the bar 🍸... 🧐🤨to see £5 entry

Not my cup of tea but could see the appeal to some poeple. I was terrified that they was going to kick my drink over me when I was getting served.

What a shambles, we arrived early an was seated, but then moved to two separate smaller booths which was not suitable,my friend then had to get the barrels to make extra seating for us, I went to the bar to get drinks considering there was only a few people there it took at least ten minutes to get served as most of the staff was talking an sorting paper work out among themselves, we were booked in for half two for bottomless brunch an then received my 1st drink at five to three, and the first cocktails didn't come till a bit later, all I can say they need to organise it better, there was one young lady who was serving a different table who was fabulous I only wish I took her name, the lady who was serving us had a attitude, will never go there again.

We wanted to visit Coyote Ugly in Cardiff. I've got very nice memories with film Coyote Ugly and wanted how it looked inside. Unfortunately after I came to security guys they were very unkind. I asked them if we could come in (3 girls 2 guys). I heard I couldn't come single. I pointed we are in group, and I asked why they are not let come in singles if they were empty. In this moment they started to be more unfriendly then before. They said I was rude but my only rudnes was this question ( I don't think it was really rude). They didn't let us come in because of my question. I don't understand that, but it question for there supervisors what attitude for customers they've got.

I visit Cardiff for a night out maybe once every couple of years when seeing family in Wales, have been to Coyote Ugly a few times now and I must say the energy and vibe here is always great, friendly security team and we always seem to get served pretty quickly. Love it!

Wow what a great night! Went here with a large group and the atmosphere was amazing. Molly and our servers, Jas and Georgia, were fantastic and really made sure we were looked after. The place was buzzing and the team was very inclusive bringing the party alive. We even got on the bar for the coyote routine. Definitely worth a visit and our party will return.

Fantastic night was had by our 20 plus group on Friday 19th Jan for a 60th birthday celebration. Molly was amazing 👏 and server's Georia and Jas kept the drinks and food coming!! Plenty for everyone. Also encouraged everyone to learn dance to routines.......best night ever!! Thank you....would definitely recommend 👌

Spent Friday night here with a large group for a special birthday . The manager Molly was absolutely fabulous ensuring we all Had a good night . Our servers were Jas and Georgia - spot on with drinks and pizza flow . Music and atmosphere was spot on One of the best nights I’ve had . Even learnt a new complicated dance routine that we performed on the bar . Some may say they thought we were professional performers !!!!! 100% recommend for a great night out

Georgia our server was amazing constantly asking if we needed anymore drinks/food absolutely fabulous day had by all!

Georgia was lovely at the front door! So welcoming and funny. Need more staff like her! Amazing drinks and music too!!

Georgia is great, give a pay rise! She’s been absolutely brilliant the last couple of days! Georgia has been incredibly friendly and gone above and beyond she’s very charming and fun and was part of the reason we returned Good banter, charming and knows how to sell, just a sick person Great time for my first experience! Made even better with great banter and great service by all! Specially Georgia! Lovely lady and thanks to her game of Jenga we made some amazing friends and memories that will last a life time! Thank you for taking such good care of us! We’ve had an amazing time! She need a big raise!!

Bottomless brunch very fairly priced.

Georgia was absolutely amazing. Every time we asked for her service she was there. So attentive would 100% recommend. Lots of love 🤍

Went here for the festival bottomless brunch had a fantastic time the drag artist was brilliant 2nd time we been here now. and our waitress I believe her name was Charlotte or Chantelle amazing she was so friendly can’t wait to come again thanks for a brilliant day

Went here in November and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, the atmosphere was electric, great prices and overall a good night out. However, returned back Sunday 17th December 2023 after our first experience and I was horrified. The woman at the bar was utterly rude threatening to ‘throw hands’ having a tantrum at her grown age, and was very rude. I never managed to get her name, but she was wearing ripped tights and a short skirt. We returned our empty glasses out of respect to the bar to save the employees a job but when we did we got looked up and down as if we were some terminal disease. In addition, the first time we visited my friend & I got harassed by an older man and nearly spiked but nobody seemed to notice around us. There was no bouncers or any ‘security’ at the door, it was a free for all.

Approached this place with my staff from work,(first club so we’re all still sober) the following conversation with the doorman happened *doorman*-how many mate? *me* 6 **doorman**men or woman *me* men *doorman* sorry mate we want woman in it’s like a c**k fest in there. Make of that what you will but given the marketing angle of the place it’s not surprising, make hay whilst the sun shines because places like this with staff like that have a short shelf life…first impressions last eh. Terrible

Love that place alway an amazing atmosphere!👍👍👍

What an amazing venue and incredible staff. Openreach had their Christmas party here the weekend just gone and what can I say…..IT WAS AWESOME. Molly and her staff couldn’t have put on a better event for us, all the effort that went in to organise this was nothing short of incredible. Thank you so much for making it such a great evening!!

Absolutely outstanding service from Georgia all afternoon. We didn't want for anything. She was spot on throughout the whole experience and cannot fault her at all. Humble and polite, a real credit to your team. It was my first visit and I would definitely visit again after such a wonderful experience 😊

I can't understand why the boys can't dance in the bar

We went for bottomless brunch, really good vibe but the drinks were unbelievably slow. It was meant to be bottomless brunch and we had 3 drinks in 90 mins. We ordered drinks when we had our next one but despite this we still had to...

service was awful, took 90 minutes for 3 drinks to be served. our server was lovely however our male friend was not allowed on stage despite multiple women dancing very provocatively. discrimination if you ask me 👹

Accidentally ended up here after too much beer!

I had such an amazing time with my best friends and the best server ever and it was amazing and i’m so happy.

They need one of these in Wrexham

Great place, staff are all super friendly, would definitely recommend! Molly & her team are great

Couldn’t recommend this place enough!! Me and my friends come here for a night out in Cardiff often and the staff and atmosphere are amazing every time. A special shout out to the manager Molly who goes above and beyond. Thank you molly and team coyote xxx

Amazing night out in Cardiff!! Great music, atmosphere, food and drinks and the manager Molly was very helpful!! I will definitely be going again, yeehawww🤠

Best night out in Cardiff! Me and my friends recently visited for a night out, It was nice to see the manager of a bar on the door and actually making guests feel welcome! all of the staff are lovely and very attentive! we felt...

Brunch was Amazing value for money. Molly was really attentive and helpful. Girls put on a fab Show and buzzing atmosphere definitely recommend!

Great place, staff are super friendly. Fun and cool vibe! We had a great night. Molly and her team were lovely, very helpful

The best night out in Cardiff!! The staff were so friendly and attentive and the food and drinks were delicious and well priced!! Molly the manager really looked after us, 100% recommend!!

Me and my friends love this place, we go all the time, all the staff are super friendly and helpful and it’s always the best time. The manager is credit to the place!!

had an amazing night here never been before molly and her team were faultless and amazing and will definatly go there again

Best night out in Cardiff! Me and my friends recently visited for a night out, It was nice to see the manager of a bar on the door and actually making guests feel welcome! all of the staff are lovely and very attentive! we felt very safe and happy here! 10/10 would recommend!

Molly the manager was really helpful and attentive. Great show and atmosphere

They let transwomen dance on the bar! Yet the sign clearly states NO MEN on the bar! Bit of a joke this, letting men steal a space from a WOMAN like me who was waiting to have a dance! Kick timothy the trans vestite off the bar so women can have our own fun for once! Will not be going again!

Popped in here for a drink while on a hen night, I ordered a bacardi and diet coke. I have to say that it wasn't drinkable! My neice had a jack and coke, that was the same. I'm not sure what mixers they use on tap but they are foul. It's the only common thing in both our drinks and they both had the same foul tang to them! If you're ordering a short ask for a can, stay away from the pump soft drinks. The atmosphere here was great though

Last time I came here a year ago it wasnt the nicesthowever I thought I would try it again and this time it was a great atmosphere and friendly staff.

I've done many bottomless brunches in Cardiff and I have to say Coyote Ugly is by far the best! It's much more affordable than any of the others (some charging up to £70pp) at only £25pp on a Saturday and includes bottomless prosecco or beers...

Saturday night is always good in here

Kaitlyn was such an amazing bartender. She was funny and helped us with acquiring our light up cowboy hats! We we will definitely be back soon!!

Great place, was there for the football but will definitely seek it out again when I have more time.

The place is Great, the most beautiful, polite kind and helpful waitress Imy have made me welcomed like Royalty there!!

Absolutely loved the vibe at this place. So great for a night out with good music. Also fantastic for hen do's ! I would of loved more of the choreographed dancing.

What kind of a bar doesn’t have ice… 🙄

Went here for my 18th absolutely loved it, will be returning again and again and again

Hats of to the girls who give a good show and make it just like the movies ! Was a little bit crowded for me but if you want busy and lots of uni students letting there hair down ! This place is for you

Popped in for 1 and ended up having 4 good night with mates

Tried to get in and the security said I had ‘crossed a line’ but I was not very drunk. They made me feel so embarrassed and small in front of my friends to the point of tears. I was so upset the rest of evening despite several strangers telling I seemed okay and not intoxicated. Disappointed by the door staff and upset that they mortified in front of my friends with no real explanation. The girls working said I would get in no problem and then men mortified me

It did exactly what it said at the entrance. Great atmosphere, good service, and food. It didn't fail to give me a smile on my face and a spring in my step. Really enjoyed it.

Caitlin was fantastic. It was my partner's birthday and she had a free shot which she loved. Thanks so much for you custom.

It is a great place if you don’t take too much notice of the little things such as the cleanliness and the some of the other patrons there for all the wrong reasons (can come across as quite seedy) but generally a great venue for a semi lively beer or two on a weekend all ages welcome attracting a varied crowd of both women and men.

What. A. Place. First time in Cardiff, so my friend took me to Coyote Ugly as my initiation. It’s bloody brilliant. In-credible women dancing up on the bar, welcoming absolutely any women up to join them that wanted to. Bartenders are on it and never...

I don’t often leave reviews but as a 30 year old still trying to enjoy a night out in cardiff I have to comment on how fantastic this bar is. Not only are all the girls fantastic and you NEVER have to wait longer than...

Could have been a little quicker bringing the drinks over, but a great atmosphere. Would highly recommend....

Amazing service and bartending 5 star for all amazing service from sem for bartending and too raiiven for the amazing food and cooking excellent job from both off them they deserve the credit

Bella la location ma sono stato infastidito da alcuni avventori per tutto il tempo della mia permanenza. Son dovuto uscire per poterli evitare.

We booked bottomless brunch for our friend's 40th birthday. We were there from 2.30 and only had our first drink by 3. We waited until 3.45 for pizza so couldn't have any extra even if we wanted to because it finished at 4. Every table...

Wow, don’t know where to start! Our first visit and it didn’t disappoint. Gigi and the Coyotes were fabulous, we had a ball. On top of the great entertainment we had the Bottomless brunch with bottomless pizza for £25 each (amazing value for money). The...

Worst coyote ugly in the UK!!! No country music played and all the so called dancers can't dance.

Absolutely one of the best evenings I have ever had. The staff here are amazing from the stunning Girls dancing/signing/severing all the way to the door staff. Great banter and well worth a visit. Please don’t forget to offer to buy the staff a drink...

Went on a hen afternoon,booked a 2 hrs slot,pizza and drinks package,well worth the money. Staff amazing. Absolutely enjoyed every minute.definitely recommend. I am coeliac and they accommodated with gluten free pizza to which was the nicest I've tasted.

So much fun! What a great experience and the customer service from Mia was next to none. She went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our time. Will definitely be back!!

Lovely staff so much fun! All you can eat pizza and drinks!! Thanks Mia, lovely staff. Drag queen was amazing

We went for the bottomless brunch and it was so much fun. Our server, Ambre, was amazing and super lovely. The pizzas were really delicious and they were constantly asking if we needed any more drinks or food. Would highly recommend! Also Gigi Spot was...

We had a truly excellent evening out my partner and I. We were greeted and served by a truly exceptional woman named Jess. The only thing more spectacular than her personality was her hair. She most definitely made sure we were well parched and entertained...

Unacceptable!! I can’t complain about any individual member of staff or the service they provided. My issue is with a set of rules that should not exist today! A close friend of mine went to escort another of our friends up to dance on the bar when ALL guests were invited. One was allowed, the other was not! The only discerning characteristic, one was male the other female! The rule is that no “men” are allowed on the bar!! In an establishment that claims to be safe and inclusive for all, the notion of dismissing an individual on the basis that they “look male” is abhorrent. Multiple members of staff came forward and apologised but reiterated that they agreed the rule was wrong but couldn’t change it! Whilst this might be true, the fault lies with whomever makes the rules! As far as I can see, they either change the rules or they should close their doors immediately. Please be clear, if you attend this venue, you must be prepared to transport yourself back to the 1950s. Proceed with extreme caution!!

A great night out and a rest atmosphere. Staff are friendly and personable and smiley. Drinks are reasonably priced and just a great laugh.

Went for a relaxing drink after watching welsh rugby

Turned up without a reservation for the bottomless brunch, they gave us a table and we had drinks but no food (although pizza looked good!). Drinks were a little pricey and could have Ben better quality, staff made this place, super fun and laughed all...

Went to coyote ugly Cardiff for the bottomless brunch as a weekend away without the kids. Mia our sever couldn’t have been more helpful. Made sure me and my partner was comfortable as he is in a wheelchair. Made sure we had suitable seating arrangements....

Amazing night out! Everyone on the bar was absolutely awesome. It was one hell of a night, Abygale is by far the best out there! Or atleast she was when I went there. Definitely needs some recognition for that! I will be back here soon...

Absolute banger of a night superb staff especially abigayle who served us all night 10/10 the atmosphere is amazing best place to go for drinks and a good time

The place itself is really nice, I really enjoyed it inside. The bouncers however, are so aggresive. They have far to much power, and use it against anyone with any sort of opinion. He literally screamed in my face and threw me out, as I...

Would recommend this bottomless brunch. Great choice of drinks, lovely pizza and Mia our waitress was awesome!
