The Ludlow Garage was a famed music venue located in the eclectic Clifton neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. Before being converted into a concert venue, the club was a city auto repair garage.

In the 1970s the venue hosted concerts by many prominent touring acts including The Allman Brothers Band, The Grateful Dead, Santana, as well as local acts such as Bitter Blood Street Theater. The Allman Brother's 1970 live album Live at Ludlow Garage: 1970 was recorded at the club.

Cincinnati city council member Jim Tarbell was proprietor of the garage from the late 1960s until its closing in 1971. Although no longer a concert venue, the garage still stands and currently houses a restaurant and bicycle shop.
