Bring this bar back, hands down better than any other bar in Cardiff. Great chips, cheap beer, and great entertainment!

Mark the Gm was outstanding, Charlotte gave outstanding service and Tony was humble and on point, the performance in bar was brilliant and tolerant of even me a straight Englishman! Amazing thanks

This place stopped selling food a long time ago when the deli closed and had a food standard hygene rating of only 2 out of 5 . Opening hours stopped being 10am a very long time ago turned to 4pm .
A few weeks ago the lease on this establishment ran out and taken over by the owner of the building who also owns Kings and Pulse . The place closed and is presently under a major refurbishment . No idea when it is to reopen but rumoured it will be a 3 story bar / club . I wish it every success .

This weekend I was celebrating my 40th birthday and my friend suggested we go to wow bar. The atmosphere was electric here especially with the drag queen's up on stage who make the place and its lovely to see everyone mixed and free to be who you are without judgement. The only downside is there is not much seating. When you are there you want to experience the music and atmosphere but instead I ended up standing outside with my drink and leaving because it was raining and nowhere to sit down inside
Ridiculous you're loosing custom by this

Recently visited with friends to celebrate 2 birthdays. the 4 'Drag' acts we saw were brilliant, involving all the audience. Well worth a visit ( be prepared for strong language and inuendos)

I stopped here for a few beers whilst in Cardiff the staff were friendly and polite and the bar was clean and tidy although I didn't see any of the DJ'S playing there were plenty of adverts for shows and discos all round the bar area

We visit WOW quite often and love most of the drag queens. We've been there a few times when Gypsy Divine is there. I've noticed that all she does is insult people, she's not even funny!. Last night my son met us in there and it took a lot for him to come out as he suffers with anxiety. The drag queen made fun of what he was wearing. I could see it really embarrassed and upset him. While I was there he called a woman fat and a man ugly.
I understand some drag queens can say cutting remarks, but they're usually funny as well, and I've seen a few. Miss Jackson is my favourite.
This one is just a horrible nasty piece of work. And she/he should think that what they say can actually damage a person's self-esteem and confidence and is actually bullying!
We won't be coming back while that drag queen is there!

WOW closed in Churchill way a year ago , has relocated to Windsor place in what used to be Buffalos bar Diagonally opposite Wetherspoons city central bar just off queen street. Did lunchtime food when they reopened but no longer and does not open until around 5pm ….As and when pubs are allowed to reopen after C-19. Sorry for very out of date reply For events as and when it reopens they have a website.
