About Hogshead Wolverhampton
Hogshead is a Social Pub & Kitchen craft-beer-and-cocktail bar at 186 Stafford Street in Wolverhampton city centre (WV1 1NA). It runs a regular open-mic night (hosted by Plugged Inn Events) from 8pm — listings show it on Tuesdays, 20:00–23:30, with all styles and abilities welcome. The pub provides a PA, vocal mics, a guitar and a cajon, plus free drinks for performers and free entry with happy-hour pricing all night. Beyond the open mic, the weekend brings live music on Fridays and a DJ on Saturdays, with a Thursday-night Speedquiz at 8pm. The kitchen runs burgers, tapas and hand-stretched pizzas, there's an extensive gin range and craft-beer line-up, and the venue is dog-friendly with a beer garden. A relaxed grassroots stop rather than a ticketed band room.
