It took me over 3.5 years to come here, which is funny to me, as I am a very regular concertgoer. I…read moream super happy that Club Cafe reopened under new ownership, as that opportunity may have been otherwise not possible. Walking in here, I was immediately surprised by how small and intimate this venue is. There are a few places to sit here, but it is mostly standing room only. No matter where you are, you are likely no more than 15 feet from the stage. Just a heads up -- there is a slight step when you enter into the venue, so step up and/or over it. I tripped on the slight angled step of the door and slightly stumbled into the venue. There are a lot of local acts that perform here -- many that I am not aware of, and so that may have been what kept me from coming here in the past. I happened to come here for a national act, Ondara, of whom I was actually surprised to see performing in such a small venue. I would definitely come back here again for the right performer/band. The acoustics are wonderful.

Coming from Orlando, this venue is so much better than what we have. I wanted to transport Stage AE…read moreto Orlando so we can actually have decent bands come through again. Getting through security was smooth and simple. I love the outside area to step away from the music or grab a drink away from the crowds. Of course drinks will be expensive, it's downtown, this is why you grab a drink somewhere beforehand, there's plenty of spots. I absolutely loved being able to stand basically level to the stage. Being height challenged, I appreciate being able to actually see for once! I love Stage AE and will most likely travel back if Orlando continues to have terrible music venues!

The space is huge which includes the dedicated patio seating. They have a variety of fun games to play inside and some TV's. I tried a few of the IPA's and I was very satisfied to the complexity of the beer. I live in the West Coast so it was nice to try a different version of an IPA. They also offer cocktails if beer isn't your thing. The staff on both visits were polite and helpful.

It's already warm and funky from body heat and they want you to cover your face while you can still smell the craft beer on your neighbors breath And the sound lol - ever been inside of a tin can with the loudest possible volume? It's goofy to me - wear a mask but damage your ears all you like ( thanks for the free ear plugs though ) Invest in some sound dampening panels or something... sheesh

Order a beer and you will be fine- if you like beer. We reserved 6 tables and our server Katie was awesome! More band vibe than dueling piano, but still a fun time, just don't expect to drink real drink. Only downfall to this place is the bartenders they don't know how to mix drinks!

I decided to give Howl at the Moon a visit when I was in Pittsburgh for one night and checking out a few downtown spots on a Friday. I've previously been to the location they have in Chicago, so I knew that they're fun for hanging out and enjoying some live music. There was a decent crowd but still plenty of room at the bar for flagging down a bartender and ordering a drink. I appreciated that the space inside was very spacious and the bar both centrally located but also a bit towards the back, leaving plenty of room between it and the stage for the music/bands. The drinks are your standard well drinks and draft beers mostly, but they do the job and are a good price. Looking for a spot in downtown Pittsburgh with great vibes for hanging out and having fun with some drinks and music? I definitely recommend Howl at the Moon!
