The Wicked Wolf

Stepping into The Wicked Wolf is like being whisked back in time to the roaring 1920s. The bar's ambiance immediately sets the tone for a night of intrigue and glamour. The dim lighting, jazz music, Salsa dancing on every first Friday of the month and vintage décor create an atmosphere that's both intimate and exhilarating. The drink menu is a delightful mix of classic cocktails and modern twists. The staff at The Wicked Wolf are attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience with their friendly and engaging service. If you were looking for a place to make your regular spot, you've found it here.

Chill whimsical fairy tale themed spot. Good service, and the bartender makes a solid drink. Great ambiance, live music Thursday through Saturday. $10 old fashioneds on monday, but mine was closer to 14. Bartender didn't ask what whisky I wanted, just fixed me one with Old Forester (well) and charged me $13. When the guy next to me ordered one, the barkeep asked him what kind of old fashioned he wanted and what whisky... nice place though and they have some interesting house cocktails. Definitely worth a peek.

October 2023: The 2nd Monday of the month is crafts and cocktails night from 6:00-9:00 PM! My friend and I have been planning to meet up at Wicked Wolf for a few months and we finally made it happen. I love the vintage-esque velvet sofas and chairs. We also had the privilege of previewing the new 2nd floor patio and event room. So cool! My friend had The Jack Albert and we both had the Mexican Firing Squad, which I enjoyed very much. It has a great combination of flavors. I asked the bartender (Christian) to go easy on the sweetness and it tasted great. Although they don't serve food, they have an arrangement with the BBQ place next door and Happy Thai down the street for free delivery. I'm looking forward to returning for another Crafts and Cocktails night in the coming months. Update: 11/01/2024 My friend and I had the privilege of going to the Wicked Wolf on opening day of their Tea Time. They're open for Tea Time Tuesday - Saturday during the day (until 4:00 PM). The tea menu has a lot of variety and the pots are very reasonably priced. We had the Summit Blueberry blend. It was so good. We both added some honey to our cups for the first round, but didn't really need it so we skipped the honey on the 2nd round. We also ordered the Charcuterie and some cucumber sandwiches. Both were delicious. The tea cups were adorable and the interior decor is so cute and beautifully unique and dramatic! I loved seeing all the red fabric flowers against the green mural.. We spoke with the owner and her partner before they left. Such a nice couple!

Absolutely exquisite cocktails and exceptional service. Connor walked me through the entire menu and helped me find the cocktails that suited my tastes and made me feel at home. I’m so excited to have a cocktail bar to explore and learn and try such specially curated drinks. 20/10 recommend. The espresso martini is the best I’ve ever had, the Hephaestus (with tequila) was so delicious as well.

Great atmosphere, great service. Flavorful drinks! The Karaoke crew is amazing and welcoming.

A hidden gem for the poetically inclined. I was among poetic legends last week. Caught a great performance and got to see some fellow spoken word artists. This place is the spot if you wanna get a drink alone or with a friend. Come check out some poetry or get a drink. You wont regret it.

So glad I found this place! It has so much character, a great gathering place to lounge and have a good time with friends. Amazing ambiance with intricate details in the decor that make it fun to look at. The bartenders were all great, they know their stuff and make delicious cocktails. Can’t wait to go back.

We just had one of those amazing serendipitous experiences that only happen once in a while. I signed up for a “Valentine’s brunch in September” + concert at the Wicked Wolf, mostly because Quinn was supposed to be busy and I was looking for something interesting to do solo. Turns out he was available, so we kicked off our anniversary week with a phenomenal brunch , amazing drinks, and a Romanian violinist and pianist concert. The food was to die for, cooked for us by chef Melissa Ramsay #experiencesaudade, the bartender created some drink just for me with Cynar and Bourbon, and the whole experience was one that we will cherish for a long time. Thea and George, owners of the Wicked Wolf, were the perfect hosts. The move to Long Beach has been so far a positive one, but we are still looking for things, places, and experiences that make us feel at home, and today was a beautiful reminder that we can belong to a wonderful community.
