Ben’s Vietnamese & Chinese
Woolloongabba
Let’s start from the top. If you don’t know about Ben’s Vietnamese & Chinese, which rock have you been hiding under, and are you ready for the time of your life? This iconic establishment sits loud and proud in the heart of Woolloongabba and heralds moreish Vietnamese and Chinese dishes with vibes of the best sort. A sizable restaurant with room for plenty of friends, book a table for your next birthday bash, girls get-together, or hen dinner party, and you’ll be belting out ‘Life Is A Highway’ before you know it. The extensive song list will take your breath away with genres, decades and songs from artists of all kinds. Even better – it’s BYO wine. Perfect for those who need a little liquid courage.
Fat Louie’s
Brisbane City
Whether you’ve been or not, Fat Louie’s is a well-known contender in the karaoke world. Whether it’s a special occasion or a mid-week antic, book a private room at Fat Louie’s with your best pals, and you’re heading towards a night to remember. Sit on the comfy couches and then party like it’s 1999 as disco balls light up the room while you sing tunes from the ‘70s and beyond.
Music City
Brisbane City
Mic up because Music City will be your new local after one visit. With a private booth that can fit up to 14 of your closest friends and a songbook of your dreams, even your most shy pals will get involved. With an updated catalogue of songs every month, you’ll be singing the hottest hits and the most recent bops at Music City. The best part? They’re BYO!
Holey Moley
Fortitude Valley
Nothing beats a good old sing-a-long with your best pals. Whether you’re hitting the high notes or reaching ones only dogs can hear, sing with confidence in one of Holey Moley’s private rooms. With a full bar next door and caddy service all night, you only have to worry about finding the Troy to your Gabriella. Go on rockstars – you’ve got this!
Cloud 8 Karaoke
Upper Mount Gravatt
We all love a themed night, and Cloud 8 Karaoke does too. With 14 rooms, each fitted out in a different theme such as the Paris-inspired room with a private bar, a projector screen, and 4 professional speakers, or the Las Vegas room decked out in neon lights, you can party with up to 40 of your nearest and dearest. And the cherry on top? They offer BYO food and drink!
Blute’s Bar
Fortitude Valley
Slinging Brisbane’s best burgers and all-around good vibes is Fortitude Valley’s resident party pub, Blute’s Bar. From 7pm, five days a week, sit and sip with pals on the comfy leather couches while you get serenaded by those brave enough to take to the stage. With an impressive fourteen taps at the bar, wine, and cocktails, this has ‘Friends’ coffee shop potential written all over it.
Lost Souls Karaoke
Fortitude Valley
If you love Netherworld, then you’ll love Lost Souls. With six themed rooms big enough for up to 16 friends, grab a bite to eat and play some games before you step into the Lost Souls Lair and sing like your life depends on it. You can sing among the bone-yard in the Boneyard Ballads Room or travel down an acid trip of a jaunty musical swap in the King Cane Toad Room. No matter which path you take, you’ll have a positively ghastly time.
