How karaoke room hire works
- Pick a session. Rooms run in two-hour slots at 5:45pm, 8pm & 10:15pm (Sat also 3:30pm). Want longer? Book two slots back to back.
- Tell us how many. Rooms take 2 to 20 people. We match you to a room that fits, so a group of six is never rattling around a room built for twenty.
- Hold it with a card. There is no hire fee. Your card is authorised for the minimum spend and nothing is taken unless you cancel late or do not show.
- Spend it on drinks. Everyone in your group can buy their own drinks at the bar or from the room screen. Mention the booking name and it all counts.
Karaoke room minimum spend
Every room is hired on a minimum spend on drinks rather than a fee, so the money goes on the night out rather than the room. The minimum depends on the day and the size of your group. Prices are per room, for a two-hour session.
| 2-hour session | Up to 8 guests | 9 or more |
|---|---|---|
| Tuesday & Wednesday | £100 | £150 |
| Thursday to Saturday | £150 | £200 |
| December | £200 | £250–£300 |
Food from SMOK'D can be ordered to the room but does not count towards the minimum. Prices come straight from our booking system, so what you see when you book is what applies on the night.
Karaoke for every occasion
Birthday karaoke in London Bridge. Book the big room, pin the birthday playlist and let the bar do the rest. Groups that want a base for the whole night can add a free table in the bar for before and after.
Hen party karaoke. Pair a private room with our two-hour cocktail masterclass for the full hen package. Hens go free for cocktail classes with groups of ten or more.
Work drinks and team nights. A karaoke room breaks the ice faster than any away-day. For bigger teams, book two rooms side by side or ask about hiring an area of the bar.
Just because it's Tuesday. Midweek sessions carry the lowest minimum spend of the week and the rooms are easiest to get. Perfect for a small group who want the room to themselves.
Christmas karaoke. December is the busiest month for the rooms and has its own rates. See the Christmas party page and book early.
