I tried a clever deal: 2 artisan cocktails for £18, available Sunday through Friday. Plus, the smoked pineapple Mezcal fizz was a highlight, thanks to the dash of chilli-salt rim plus soda. You can also choose from berry-infused gins or citrus vodka with herbal accents.

At Nelly Foleys, karaoke runs seven nights a week, and the mic is always open for brave singers. The atmosphere here is loud and fun-filled, with visitors contributing to the high energy. Sometimes, it’s like a mini nightclub on peak days.
You can also keep the drinks flowing with their budget-friendly pints and beers before 5:00 PM. However, if you prefer a steadier and calmer vibe, consider going earlier in the evening when the soundtrack (and crowd!) is still warming up.

Its placement on Great Charlotte Street puts it in a convenient city-centre spot, making it ideal for nights out or pre-event gatherings. If you prefer a quieter visit (for drinks and chat), aim for early in the opening hours.

The Grapes is actually a piece of music history with lively karaoke nights to match. We started by checking out the spot where The Beatles themselves used to hang out after gigs at the Cavern Club.
Inside, a marked table indicates where they sat, and photos and memorabilia celebrate their connection to the pub. Then, we dove into karaoke. Friday afternoons here are relaxed and calm, while Saturday nights cranked up the energy with live music and a full-on party.
| Pro Tip: Spin The Grapes’ vinyl jukebox (Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club) and choose from 70 classic 7-inch records, because every coin you use goes to charity. Pick a track and feel good knowing you’ve made a small difference. |

Kabin sits smack-bang in the heart of Liverpool’s legendary nightlife. Basically, you can stumble in and dance out (talk about convenience!).
We love the multi-activity bar set-up. There’s a private karaoke room for your inner pop star, a retro arcade, and an interactive darts lane. We booked one of Kabin’s karaoke rooms for a night out, and it was an absolute hit.
And because Kabin knows how to keep the fun flowing, their menu features expertly crafted cocktails and a self-pour wall. Yes, you can literally pour your own pint of draught beer or cider like a bar pro you’ve always wanted to be.
| Pro Tip: While you sing your heart out, be sure to have a few good drinks to enjoy as well. Kabin’s Happy Hour is a deal that gives you 2 cocktails for only £8! |

Roxy Ball Room is anything but ordinary. The walls are adorned with street art murals and plush booths, all of which are lined near the stage. The huge lyric screen here makes it easier for the crowds to sing along (even the shy ones).
And the drinks? Just as fun. I tried their “Sweet Child O’ Mine”, a wild mix of raspberry rum and bubblegum syrup. It was probably one of the highlights of the night as I continued belting out tunes from the ‘90s.
| Pro Tip: Take advantage of Roxy Ball Room’s “Epic Drinks Game Combo” while you have your karaoke sesh. Enjoy £4 pints, such as Estrella or large house wine, on Sundays to Thursdays until 6:00 PM. |

Visiting Woody’s Sports & Karaoke Bar is like walking into an ultimate party den. The place is decked out with glowing neon lights and walls plastered with posters. It kind of feels like being backstage at a concert.

My friend and I visited PINS Social Club, and it was a full-on entertainment venue. Their private karaoke booth allowed us to have a little jam session away from the main bar’s hustle.
We ordered food from Goldie’s Slice Shop and proceeded to entertain ourselves while waiting for our turn on the mic. There were bowling lanes, pool tables, and many more.
Another cool twist is their rooftop bar called “The Roof”, where you can chill after a karaoke session. It sits right above the main venue with its BBQ space and cocktail-serving bar.
| Pro Tip: Join PINS’ Social Club for their “Spare Time Social” (Monday to Thursday, 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM) and enjoy 2 cocktails for £15. You can even mix and match any cocktails you like. |
