The Howlin' Wolf in Glasgow City

Good beer, good live music. Great atmosphere. Not just a standard DJ in a pub. Good live music.

The service was good, but i have to wait for a burger for more than a 1:30. And the burger, i can make it home better in 10 minutes

Sunday jam sessions are legendary.!!! 👌

Open late brunch, lunch, snacks, evening meal. Really good vibe. Recommend the tacos ❤️💯

Brilliant blues club with good drinks. Had a group of 7 people there and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Excellent music with some incredibly talented people. If you are a lover of music it's got to be on your list to visit.

I loved it ☺️ perfect for drinking pints

A burrito as good as any Mexican restaurant, and the beers are really good too. Later on, a crackin blues band. We had a great night. Thanks

I visited on a quiet Wednesday evening but the service was perfect and gumbo was amazing. Definitely recommend.

Great atmosphere! Live blues music everynight is so lovely to find here in Glasgow. Can't wait to visit more

Tremendous music, felt like it was banger after banger. Nice atmosphere too. Unfortunately didn’t try the food!

Really great atmosphere inside, excellent DJ. Ruined by the guy on the door that was consistently rude and offensive to people coming in when I was going out to smoke.

6 of us for most of the afternoon/ evening. Booth was a wee bit cramped but we managed. Burgers were really good, in particular the crispy bacon. The main thing though was the service, staff were excellent without any long waits for drinks and served quickly throughout.

We had a work Christmas Day out yesterday and had such a great time. The food was amazing, drinks were great and the staff were so lovely. 20 of us all agree we’ll definitely be back.

Great bar, open late with live music!

A great bar with super Blues music and great beer/cocktails! The staff were super friendly - thank you 😊 Xxx

Amazing live music, great service , fab cocktails

Lures you in with food until 2am but actually stops serving at 11pm. Expensive drinks and empty atmosphere. Don't recommend.

Seven pounds for a bottle of beer😡

We arrived on a very wet and cold October afternoon - at that point we were the only people in ( live music is in the evenings) We instantly loved the look/feel of the place and decided to have a beer and a seat, After a great couple of hours, some fantastic music, several Fab-U-Lous cocktails and bowls of the best and hottest fries I've ever had, we left, a very happy pair of visitors. Do yourself a huge favour - just go here?

The noise in here was horrendous and this was before the live band started (who were great). In a group of 10, we could hardly hear each other speak and left after we ate. Otherwise it's a well laid out space, bar staff were lovely, the live band were excellent... Just beyond loud.

Nice retreat and respite in the centre of town. The only time I wouldn’t go there is if you are looking for quiet. Music is always pretty loud.

Great staff for a fun night of delta blues. Recommend highly.

The best blues venue in Glasgow. Great bands and atmosphere. Sadly, food is not the best.

Great venue for live blues. Food is great. Drinks selection is great. Best espresso martini in town.

Tucked away downstairs, great music, nice drinks and tasty snacks. It wasn't very busy but it was lunchtime. The only disappointment was the toilets which weren't great.

Great to go for food drinks and live music at night, open till 3am

Went in one night and was disappointed with the food, think it might have been an off night in the kitchen. Sent and message saying I was disappointed. Promptly got a drinks and food voucher to come back. Went back and totally different food. Both times the service and atmosphere was great. So glad the food match up this time. Many thanks to our waitress and waiter who went over and beyond to ensure out next visit was fab. Thanks guys, great customer service. 👍

Great live music, friendly staff, good selection of drinks and late night/early morning food menu *****

Great Live music, friendly staff and reasonably priced drinks. Didn't get to try the food this time!

Wall to wall creepy drunk old men. Avoid if with women.

Great hidden bar. Great beers and music! Amazing place for late night drinks and food. Kitchen open till 2 am!

Ash was great with the service. She kept checking on us and we not felt pressured.

Cool atmosphere and a great spot for live music. Beer is a little pricey.

We went to the Howlin Wolf before heading to the Pavilion Theatre for a show, the food was pretty good and served quickly. They have a good range of beers and the decor is nice.

As an American traveling through Glasgow, this place is off the chart. Service is amazing and the food is lovely. Quite different from what I'd find at home, but there's a powerful amount of soul behind it. Definitely check this place out even if it's just for a drink!

Great blues bar with excellent live music. The selection of beers is OK, they have a few beers from the Drygate brewery and of course from Tennent's. Food is no bad as well, good pub grub! One annoyance is tables always being reserved, I prefer the traditional approach that if you've been sitting at a table all day then it's yours.

Brilliant wee place to go Especially if you like the blues. Unfortunately never had food , but the staff are friendly good atmosphere 😎

Recommended by the hotel staff we were staying in, we opted to come here as we love live music.. Drinking local beer, listening to live music, we had a great night. A must for anyone visiting Glasgow.

We were in Glasgow for the weekend, and Howlin' Wolf did not disappoint. We initially turned up first time for just a couple of drinks (which to be honest are on the more expensive side but you get great atmosphere with it). We later turned up to have food, the service was lovely, we asked them to keep an eye out for a free table near the front as we ended up seated at the back which they kindly obliged. The drinks options are excellent, and their cocktails are solid. We didn't get to see live music on this visit but from previous visits the music has always been phenomenal. I really do rate this place.

An awesome pub with live music. Very festive with friendly people .

Ive been coming here for a few years, lovely bar, with great live music and open till 3am. The price of a Tennents is not too bad. If there was a music venue on Bath st worth visiting, it'd be this one!!

We did eat in the rear area of the Howlin' Wolf, our choice as it was a bit more private and we kind of had this area to ourselves in our little booth. The staff were amazing with dietary needs etc. and bent over backwards to cater for us. My Boogie Chicken burger with haggis levelled me. The Dirty South was made especially with no mayo or onions and hit the spot. The music was fantastic. So glad the Meat Bar had rude awful staff, if they didn't we would not have found the Howlin' Wolf. We are telling everyone to come here, we are definitely coming back for a live music night. Thank you to the young lady who served us, an absolute joy.

As an avid bar goer, I must say, that was one of the best pisses I've ever taken in a bar! Exquisite urinals! Brilliant service!

I played live here on Saturday night with my band Bison Hip and it was a fantastic night. Great bar, great staff, and the crowd were amazing. Would definitely play here again

Great bar and the band Bison Hip were tremendous, the service at the bar was great for such a busy place, didn't eat there but the food looked good. Will give that a go next time 🙂

I went in for a couple of drinks but loved the live bands so went back a few times

Fantastic blues bar. Staff are amazing. Attentive but not intrusive. Bang on!

Great spot, good people, strong service, and goes late.

I didn't have food so can't rate it, but the venue is fantastic with great live music and great atmosphere

Good vibes, friendly staff. Tasty beer.

Fantastic atmosphere , great staff, and brilliant live music !

Hands down the best live blues bar in town!

We had a very enjoyable meal here on father's day food was excellent service also we enjoyed a wheat beer would recommend the Howlin Wolf 🐺, my son had the ribs I had a all day breakfast which I had been looking forward to all week, definitely will go back.

Great menu. Great location. Great service.

This is a great bar! The drinks were flowing, and the chicken wings were amazing! The place was pretty busy, but we were able to grab a table quickly, and our food order came out quick for as busy as they were. This is the only bar with a late night kitchen. All the other bars were open late, but their kitchen closed at 8. If you're looking for a late night bite, The Bowling Wolf is the place to go!

Ribs you've never seen this, just incredible

Love it here. Every time we get to Glasgow we try to get here. Live music. Good food and drinks. Really great atmosphere

Great food, great music, great beers, couldn't ask for a better place to grab a drink or three.

Didn't have any food there, so I didn't rank that. The drinks were reasonably priced, and I met some friendly folks in my time there.

Best place in Glasgow for live music lovers

We loved this place for his atmosphere, if you love Blues Music and beer this is the place for you, also there's Live Music every day. The food is nothing special but that's definitely not the reason why you come to this place. Very recommended for a fantastic night out.

Fantastic atmosphere, blues and rock music, normal prices for the area

Just came in for the Sunday night rock'n'blues jam session, which was an outstanding performance. Cool musicians, great atmosphere and good selection of beers. A must visit on a Sunday night!!!

Had a great night in here. Live music, amazing atmosphere. It was mobbed, and quite rightly. Great venue. Will be back.

Excellent atmosphere and service

Good food, spacious layout and the best blues venue in Glasgow, but don't look too happy on arrival. The door staff may assume your drunk even if you've just finished work.

First time visit to this busy bar and restaurant with friendly staff. Food was very generous in portion size and the dishes we had were really tasty. Water provided for the table without having to ge asked for which I liked. Good drinks menu too.

Thursday night and 3 Card Trick leaves little to go elsewhere for.. Nice 7 mountains IPA too

There's always a great atmosphere in here, whether it's 4pm and you're the only people in there, or at midnight when it's packed out, along with great music you don't hear anywhere else. Please don't change it.

Visiting from Aberdeen, stumbled upon this place, everything from the door staff to the bar service was incredible, extremely attentive, the band was amazing and the crowd was involved so much it created such a great vibe, even including the recent gig of tenacious D into the set, this is why other cities in Scotland have so much to offer in terms of entertainment!

Decent late night bar with live music on until midnight

Rarely seen such a powerful lady as here leading the jam session. Please keep it up, great club, beer and guests 🍺 Will certainly come back here 👍

Music is phenomenal. Love Blue Milk. More please!

First time at the wolf and had a good time. We ate there and the food was good. It also had gluten free options a plenty. Great atmosphere with good music. Staff were very helpful.

Dear Goddess! This was a sensation. Glasgow has a fantastic crowd of musicians and artists, and nowhere else has it been as apparent than the howlin wolf. Charlie, if you are reading this you are a pure enchantress. I could have stayed all night.

Good atmosphere, was busy at 6ish with groups of people, couples and families. Went through to the back of the building to eat which was also busy. Food okay, service was quite slow tho, maybe everyone was ordering at the same time. Ribs were very good but chicken burger nothing special.

Great little bar for the vibe and service,food and of course welll stocked bar and helpful crew. Enjoyed the last set of a live band,and yes conversation limited due to the noise level but to be expected in such a close venue. Benn before and will be back. Many thanks to all the crew❤️🙏

Fantastic. Great music and vibes. We stopped by and they heard we were from Tennessee in the US and played Tennessee waltz for us. Really made our glasgow trip a great one.

Good spot but the front bar is far far too loud. Can barely hear yourself think let alone anyone you’re with. Had to leave early because of it, not sure when I’ll be back

In for a few drinks - busy place but staff were great and service quick, know what they are doing behind the bar. Unexpectedly one of the best pints of Guinness I’ve ever had which was a real bonus! Could do a lot worse than this place, worth a visit. Thanks.

Amazing wee find, food outstanding especially vegetarian nut burger, atmosphere and music is 1st class, felt right at home, great vibe. A jewel is Glasgow's crown. Found my place in Glasgow, will definitely be back.

Fab wee space, cosy while also feeling stylish. The live music was amazing, good prices for drinks, good range of drinks on tap. Yeah, I reccomend!

What a great find. Great atmosphere. We went on Friday night. There was a band from 7.30 until 9. Their first set was fantastic. The second was a bit bizarre. Female singer joined them for a couple of songs and then it just fell apart. She went off to get her pic taken. The band finished early. Real shame as they were really good. Spoiled the evening a wee bit. Such a shame as this is a great place. The staff were friendly. The food was great. Definitely will try again!

Have to say the staff are so friendly and accommodating Elijah was the nicest guy couldn’t do enough for us one if the girls helped me decide about food as I was only wanting a snack she suggested the chicken wings which were delicious great chouce great choice of beers drinks band was amazing we had a great time

Visited here a number of times during a week-long stay in Glasgow. My timetable was such that I was not going to be able to get out for a beer and food until past 2230 each night so this place was suggested as ticking the boxes. So - A superb atmosphere with some excellent Live music (sometimes until 0200). Food Served until 0200 and a great selection of beers, including locally brewed. All in all a superb venue. Certainly will go back!

Very friendly atmosphere. Sorry did not have anything to eat therefore, cannot comment. However, the dishes did look very appetising.

Lovely atmosphere, great music and good food, but the reason for the review is the staff, who made us feel welcome and cared for. Felt like a really nicely held and safe space as well as a great spot to spend our first evening in the city. Thanks so much for looking after us 😘

We visited for the first time on Valentine’s day for an anniversary celebration… and WOW! we were so impressed, the food was delicious and they accommodated my GF partner brilliantly. The atmosphere is cozy but lively and we had some of the best cocktails i’ve ever had. Last but certainly not least was the service, every single member of staff we had the pleasure of coming across were so lovely. Our server Iona was top class, so attentive, funny and sweet, if i could give more than 5 stars I would!! Thank you for a brilliant evening, we will definitely be back!

One of the best atmospheres in Glasgow, great music/bands, food lovely and staff are brilliant 👏

Great music. Funky crowd. Perfect position in the heart of the nighlife.

Food very tasty and lots of choice. Missing some of order which was sorted out. Nice seats and great big space. Would go back ☺️

I liked this place the service from the staff was really good

Fantastic little place we stumbled into after Celtic Connections at the Pavilion. Really great cocktails, decent diverse beers on tap (Brewgooder, Drygate, Heverlee) and some great chips and good seats... but the best bit is the Sundays Blues Jam, some absolutely great playing and singing 👌 Totally coming back !!

Cool vibe n food service by tandon is also good

On last visits:Great food, drinks and atmosphere what more can you ask for. Visit today: omg!! £25.25 for 4 drinks, when I checked they said they were run of the mill. Funny went to maltmans, Same round was £14. Getting greedy I felt won't be in a hurry to return.

faith is the nicest bartender i’ve ever met 🙏🙏 the other bartender toni said i was the coolest person she’d ever met! overall great experience 👍

Probably the best ‘after work’ bar in the city. Fantastic atmosphere and music; great selection of drinks and their food is delicious. Well worth a visit

Always a good atmosphere, open till late, big yst cosy
