I called to book a slot for a date a month away and was told to book on-line. When I attempted to do this the system crashed and I had to re-submit the details. I then get a call, a few hours later, from the manager asking why I had not shown up for my booking!!! I was then told that my booking was process for the same day and not for my birthday a month away as requested!! The manager refused to change the booking and charged me the full price for a missed session!!! He appears to enjoy the sound of his own voice and skirts around issues without actually answering any questions – as per other reviews – VERY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE – DO NOT BOTHER.

Please don't go to Karaoke Box! It's really terrible! We actually wanted to go elsewhere but couldn't get any availability and this was the only place with rooms available at such short notice. Now I know why. The room was hot and horribly stuffy, the machine broke down twice and the cocktails at Karaoke Box didn't taste very strong either.

Last night I gatecrashed (with permision) a night at Karaoke Box with the ladies of a well known fashion magazine. All I can say is: fantastic bloody night. The staff were really friendly (even putting up with some serious dancing-on-the-sofa action and spilt wine on the floor). There were loads of fun songs, drinks were brought to the room really quickly and the rooms were air conditioned (essential at a Karaoke venue). I can assure others will have a fun time.



It's not super glitzy (but then if you are after Lost in Translation style karaoke, then expect to pay the 400 pounds an evening prices that users in Japan are used to!).



You'll have lots of fun here - it's reasonable on cost, and you'll leave with a smile as all our group did. Well done Karaoke Box!

I totally agree with the review below - Karaoke Box Dai Chan ia a real karaoke experience for real people. I've always found the staff really helpful, maybe the other comments below are more to do with the customer's attitude rather than the Karaokoe Box Dai Chan staff.

Karaoke Box Dai Chan is an excellent fun night out for a few mates or even just a couple of you. Hiring the rooms is very reasonable and whilst it is not as pleasing on the eye as rivals like Lucky Voice it has a certain charm in its down-at-heel appearance.


Certainly you'll feel much better getting a bit tipsy and raucous here than elsewhere. They have nice, friendly staff who don't rush you out in the middle of your final big number also help the evening along. Karaoke Box Dai Chan is really good fun.

Karaoke Box Dai Chan is London's best-kept secret, possibly because the storefront sign is in Japanese only. Although it's a fantastic, unique end to any evening, it's an evening in itself - just you and your friends in your own room, lots of drink and countless songs to choose from on the touch-screen system.


The staff are great (real people - not the servile lackies some reviewers here would evidently prefer) and are always there when you want them. I've been before, and I'll be going there again. What's not to love? Long live the Karaoke Box Dai Chan.

I just phoned to try to book a room on Friday at Karaoke Box Dai Chan. The guy on reception/bookings is rude and obnoxious and has zero customer service skills. I agree with the last comment that all he wanted was to take the booking/credit card details and not explain the pricing. I asked a simple question and couldn't get a straight answer. This gives a very poor impression Karaoke Box Dai Chan. I shan’t bother going.

Karaoke Box Dai Chan is a cheap and generally fun karaoke place, but the staff are the rudest people I have ever met in my life. The guy in reception at Karaoke Box Dai Chan is really patronising and just wants you to give your credit card details as quickly as possible.



When you get in they take their time and keep trying to get you to buy drinks, then remind you to leave soon even before your time has ended! Despite this we did enjoy ourselves.
