I normally come here when my friends invite me. It's a nice location and I do like their rooftop. They have a dance floor and it's usually packed on the weekends. I normally enjoy drinking scotch neat to have fun. Unfortunately they do not serve drinks in a glass which is best for scotch and instead they serve it in a plastic cup. I do understand that they do it to prevent glasses breaking with people getting drunk or bumping into each other. However, I go to other places and they always serve such drinks to me in a proper glass. So that's the only thing that hurts me when I come here.

I have only been here twice and have been very impressed with not only the service but the drinks as well. I just learned they are closing 08-07-2022 (per Facebook page). I'm sure this place opened early 2022. It is located on the 2nd floor of the former Hopcat location. They are owned by the same owners of the Merryweather located on Lydia Street in Schnitzelburg. I had really high hopes for this place and it saddens me they are closing along with many other great Louisville businesses. My favorite drink here has been the adult version of the Icee', and favorite shot is a the Disco shot. Staff has always been wonderful both times I have been here. If anyone is reading this please see them 08-05-08/07/2022. This will be another great Louisville location gone sadly.

What on earth happened to this bar?!? Music used to be good but now it’s a dj screaming the instructions to the Macarena
Mike Stewart
Bar was fine, music was fine, prices are fine. Would recommend.Sound system on outdoor patio is really terrible. It rattles like it's broken, the volume control is a painful roller coaster, the bass is broken so the treble screeches into your soul.Really a good experience except for the speakers outside

Beyond hip and cool, the place reeks of tight skinny jeans and funky mustaches. The HIT is one helluva cocktail.

First off, can we acknowledge what an absolutely awesome name this is for a bar? A lot of bars and restaurants just pick an adjective and an animal and call it a day. In someone else's hands, the old HopCat building may have been reborn as "The Decadent Lemur" or "The Pretentious Tapir"; mercifully, we got "The Wiggle Room" instead. Anyway, this is the best new Highlands bar in a long, long time. The retro-futuristic design is a real treat and the music is just as eclectic. The overall feel could be described as fully-realized, versatile and distinct. This is not a place that's just trying to cynically chase hipster clout, be "the new Highlands Tap Room" or anything of that nature. Let's focus in on the "versatile" part. The Wiggle Room has a projector screen for films, a selection of well-maintained pinball machines, a dance floor with disco ball, a rock-solid taplist and a fabulous top-floor patio, among other amenities. That variety is nothing to scoff at, yet The Wiggle Room doesn't break the bank: drink prices are fair and the happy hour deals are downright excellent. Even when events are going on, the cover charges aren't obscene by any means. The staff is friendly and informative about specials and events, which further bolsters the passion project feel of this place. Whether you're looking for a welcoming atmosphere, value, or just the chance to feel like Jimmy T. from "WarioWare" for a night, you can't do much better than The Wiggle Room.

Wiggle Room is by far one of my favorite watering holes in Louisville. From the drinks, to the staff, to the vibes, the Wiggle Room never misses. One of my favorite things is that they play random movies during the day/early evening or when there's not an event that night. (It's easier for this non-sportsball-loving gal to strike up a conversation with other people glued to the screen.) The drinks are for real, there's a lot of vegan options (both drinks & snacks). You won't find a friendlier, more no-nonsense staff than here at the Wiggle Room. Well, maybe at the Merryweather but I think we all know why that is, *wink wink* I've only been here a handful of times when it's really bumpin' on the weekends. I tend to stop by during the week. Thursdays are my favorite because they have a DJ that plays your music videos of choice, depending on the theme. I highly recommend checking this spot out. It's unmissable. (And I didn't even mention the amazing second story patio.)

A nice, newer bar/ club with a hip but retro vibe. Most nights they have a theme going on which makes it fun. Happy hr is from 5-7, and on Thursdays thru have $1 beer all day.
Probably Louisville’s coolest patio. Pinball, good music, lots of booze and beer options.

Atrocious music and even worse serving staff. The staff is often rude and could care less about the customers well-being. Saturday nights USED to be diverse and includes music for everyone but now it’s just trash mashups with no personal attachment. Boring, dull, and uneventful.Also, increasing your price. Thanks.

There are some things I like about this place. However, why should I go to the Wiggle Room for a sub par Negroni at $10 a pop, when I can go get a better Negroni for $6 at either the Taproom or Kaiju?

The bar was awesome, great music and great vibe and even had the march madness games on. However in the middle of a game they decided to turn the TV's to HBO max and boondocks... they had no reason other than a bartender wanted it... that's just kinda weird in my book

Ambiance, vibe, mood everything is 10/10. this is the kind of dance bar Bardstown road needs. the only downfall is that it takes at minimum 25-35 minutes to get a drink.
The place is nice
