I don’t typically come to this part of Portland or karaoke bars but my husband is a huge fan of the Shining and so we had to come. I enjoyed it so much more than I expected! The bartender was so kind and friendly. I enjoyed my margarita and there’s plenty to do here if you don’t come for karaoke. My husband really liked all of the small details connected to the shining.

Saturday night bar tender was great! Such a lovely soul. The guy running karaoke however wasn’t. He had an attitude to songs he didn’t like, and would make comments to the room after people were done singing. He did this to my friend for singing a rock song. We was there for my friends birthday mind you. The guy wouldn’t play songs he didn’t like and would keep moving songs down the list. I waited 4 hours and never got to sing.. But the same group of guys were able to sing songs on repeat? And they were too trashed to even remember the words? And When they wasn’t singing, the karaoke guy was? So this place left a bad taste in my mouth.

Honestly I haven't found a good karaoke spot in Portland, I wouldn't say this one is good either, but it's better. I like that the people there were fun and it felt like a house party more than karaoke, so it's not so scary to sing in front of people. The host is a great hype man, he's super engaging and the overall environment is really fun in that drunk karaoke type of way. I think it could be better if the mics and speakers were turned down. It's a tiny place, and the volume level was honestly dangerous for your hearing threshold and that's super harsh and damaging to the sound equipment in general. The second recommendation I would make is allowing everyone to sing their song before having a hierarchy to the line. It took over an hour for anyone outside a specific party to sing their first song, while folks within their party were singing back to back. There was a lot of screaming into the mics, while the volume was turned up, so we left after 1 song. My ears are actually still ringing.

Great spot with good people working behind the bar. Usually someone screaming in the mic and a blaring sign that reads KARAOKE out front. Comfortable and confident space themed after The Shining with all the decor centered around the film, including a giant typewriter right when you enter. Great KJs and solid drinks.

My friends and I enjoyed coming here every week. My friends like to get drinks and I cannot drink alcohol because of my health condition. So I order sodas. I am a paying customer. Yet the bartender named Tristan said to me when I was ordering my soda, that I cannot participate in karaoke without drinking alcohol. And I said I can’t drink alcohol and he said I couldn’t participate then. I felt really uncomfortable after that because he didn’t even try to understand why I wasn’t drinking alcohol and completely disregarded that I was still a paying customer who just wanted to hang with his friends. It’s very disappointing and makes you uncomfortable knowing they are observing you and judging you while you’re there. Lost consistent customers.

We came into this Shinning theme bar not sure what to expect, but hoping for karaoke at least. What we found was a fun bar to have amazing drinks and an extensive playlist band/theatre kids would live for. It’s a great place to belt out some tunes then sit back and enjoy great drinks. Thanks Jessie for an amazing time in Oregon. Next time I visit, I’ll be sure to stop back in. -Karina from STL

Jorge the bartender is the only reason for more than one star. He is phenomenal and deserves a raise. Not only was the bartender Tristan beyond pushy by making us order a certain amount of drinks per song he was just downright unfriendly the last time I visited. I was a weekly customer but because of him I will not be returning

Great bar and Tristan is an amazing bartender as well as kj as he kept drinks going while being attentive to customers. Great song selection and i will definitely be back

Came here for an event - overall fun but the staff seemed a little disorganized and overwhelmed. I seemed to be bothering them every time I ordered another beverage. The space is also not my favorite - it is hard to really see the TV screens and be part of the group - almost as if the karaoke is an after-thought. Drinks are standard Portland pricing - but for more of a dive bar atmosphere. I am not sure I'd come back soon.

Fun bar with some awesome Shining related decorations and unique cocktails. They also have a great karaoke system, the employees were great, and their service was fast.

Place had amazing atmosphere to it decorated in the shining not the biggest bar but fun and cozy super fast service friendly definitely would recommend checking out just to see the place

Amazing! Awesome owners! Awesome Jell-O shots! Lexi and Tristan are the shit. Awesome theme

Got one of the specialty shots on a Saturday night (Pineapple Upside Down Cake). Drink was great and service was on point. Loved getting the couple of free karaoke tokens with the drink (and watching others as well)

Had a great time doing karaoke with friends here. The bartender was cool and nice, the vibes were spooky and fun (check out the bathrooms...) and the karaoke crowd was all super fun people. Didn't try the food. The cocktails were all pretty standard.

Fook your stupid karaoke app, go back to the paper slips this is bull ish, I spent way too long trying to get the app and use it just for it to not work.

You don't come here for cocktails or cheap drinks. Because they don't have good cocktails and their drinks are pricey. It's a small karaoke dive. The service is good and the atmosphere is small and noisy. Maybe drop in sing a song and grab a drink. Not really made to be an all night hangout. If you really wanted a small divey bar for karaoke, it's nice.

Came for a private birthday, and it was awesome!!! The service was top notch and prices were fair. Lots of beer and booze choices and who doesn't love a bit of karaoke!

This is the worst most overpriced bar in Portland. They only serve hot dogs and they take an hour so don't bother with food either. 9 bucks for a canned cider and 15 bucks for the most watered down cocktails. And the bar smells bad too. Just a bad experience all around.

The most amazing karaoke bar In Portland Oregon, please feel free to go check it out . Also the drinks are cold and the staff is amazing !!!
