In Short – Professionals, students and tourists join the piano players and waitresses in letting their hair down each evening at the Houston outpost of this national bar. Shots are a popular menu item and black-clad waitresses and a full bar keep the libations coming. The banter between the musicians and staff are part of the show and guests are likely to get to know their neighbors through the course of the evening. –

Like hanging out with a bunch of friends
by elliott30 at Citysearch
The house band is truly incredible and I was blown away with how talented each member of the band was. The songs are played to perfection! They're all funny and are great at making the atmosphere friendly and care-free. The bartenders are very good at working quickly and you don't have to wait long to get a drink like most bars. The only problem that stands out for me was the $7 cover charge. Overall, a great evening out with friends.
- Pros: Amazing band, great drinks, friendly atmosphere
- Cons: Crowded, Shortage of seats, Expensive cover charge

High Energy, Very Interactive, Great Music, Great Crowd
by SHOWMEHOUSTONTX at Citysearch
The versatility of the musicians, the welcoming staff and all of the wonderful people I continue to meet keep me intrigued with HOWL. I just can't get enough of the place. This is always a very interactive experience ....a great place to spend an entire evening. I find myself not wanting to go anywhere else (although I have tried other places, I've just not found another place that "rings my bell").
- Pros: Musical talent is awesome, Staff is very attentive
- Cons: Needs more room for more people

Boring, Rude, Awful
by behallman at Citysearch
I was told this was a cool place and when I got there there was a $7 cover charge, bothered me a bit. Then the drinks were awful and watery. Then when we tried to move 2 small pub tables together for our large party one guy told us we needed to separate so that staff can move between them then a fat staff member told us we needed to completely move them cause he couldn't get through them. Not my problem...2 different rules. I also put in a song request for Journey Don't Stop Believing and on the request I put that it was my friends Birthday and placed a nice tip on it for it to get played. The announcers said no cause they did not feel like singing that song any other song by Journey they said. Total waste of time for me and I soon left. The most expensive boring night I have ever had. Don't waste your time, please!
- Pros: None
- Cons: Drinks, Parking, Music, Staff, Everything
