4.3 / 5.0(1,436 reviews)
Awesome venue for live music. Really a great experience. Nachos were below average... I like my cheese hot. Wings were excellent, Pizza tasty, and service was prompt and friendly. Absolutely worth an evening in Manila if you like music. Visited on a Friday night and had the best time! Various bands perform throughout the night which are all incredibly entertaining. Lots of great covers and they also take song requests. The service was quick and the food menu has quite a few options. Definitely worth visiting!! Great food and awesome entertainment. The patrons that enter after 12pm are drunk and disruptive so leave early

Been here many times great bands. Very good service & always a good night. I haven't been here for a while now , but nothing has changed. In my opinion if it counts for anything it is the best place for live music in the Philippines. The bands are always good and the atmosphere is buzzing. The majority of the customers are Filipinos. Just wanting a few beers and a good time. Should you want to eat as well the food is very good. Kitchens are spotlessly clean. CR also clean and with an attendant. 23 Dec 23. Another great night spent at the Cowboy grill. Their bands are always good.

The performing bands that night are good and lively. The establishment was well air-conditioned. Clean restroom. And they have a designated smoking area.
