A restaurant is another dinner and a film is two hours of sitting quietly side by side. A date in a karaoke room is something else: the two of you alone in a closed room, no audience, singing your songs, going off-key and laughing about it together. It is also a date you can book the same day, because weekday evenings usually have space.
Why it works for two
Nobody outside
the room is soundproofed and closed. Sing at full volume even when it does not come out well.
Your lighting
soft for a slow song, colourful for a hit. You control it from the room.
Your soundtrack
any song with a karaoke version on YouTube, from your wedding song to the silly ones you both know by heart.
Wine and dessert from home
bring what you like, free. There is a fridge. Soft drinks and kosher snacks are also sold on site.
What it costs for a couple
Per person per hour: 55 ILS for the first hour, 45 for the second, 35 for the third, 25 for the fourth. One hour for two: 110 ILS. Two hours: 200 ILS. Three hours: 270 ILS. No deposit, pay on site, and you can add half an hour if the night is going well. The full table is on the price list.
Ideas for the evening
- A surprise playlist - a song from the first date, the wedding song, one only the two of you know. Queue them on the tablet in the room.
- At least one duet - there are several wireless microphones, so nobody has to share.
- Dessert halfway - pause for fifteen minutes, wine and cake, then carry on.
- End on a slow one - lights down. Then one photo to remember it by.
When to come
Weekday evenings, Sunday to Wednesday 18:00 to 00:00, are the quietest and can usually be booked the same day. Thursday is open until 01:00. On Saturday night we open about two hours after Shabbat ends, and booking a few days ahead is wise. We are at 3 Shatner Street, Givat Shaul, about a 5-minute drive from the city entrance, with free private parking, so the night does not start with a search for a spot.
