Pete's Dueling Piano Bar

Had an absolutely amazing time at Pete’s! We spent the evening singing, dancing, and laughing our hearts out. Such a fantastic place to hang out with friends and enjoy lively piano music 🎶 — definitely a night to remember! 🥳🎶

I took my coworkers from out of town and we had such a blast! Kyle, Mark, Nathan, and Sam were such amazing performers. Additionally, they let my coworker play the drums for two songs, which made our evening extra special. Thank you, so much! It would be great if you could show lyrics on the big screen for some of the more popular songs. I’ll bet more of the audience with sing-along if we knew the lyrics to the songs.

What a show!!! I reserved a table ahead of time knowing on a Saturday night it would be BUSY! It was $67 after tax for a four top and you have waitress service. We ordered food, it was mediocre at best but it’s a bar to drink and sing not to eat a Michelin star meal at. I’ll give it a pass. The drinks were decent, got the Tub and it was so much fun. It was pretty full of ice and the drink was weak but again I didn’t go for that. We were there almost 5 hours and the house was alive and so much fun. The musicians were incredibly talented and really put their personailities into what they were playing. If you don’t know it is a request only play around and that made it so much better than a set list! If you are thinking to go, eat out before, reserve a table, drink a couple ahead of time and get your singing voice ready!

What a fantastic experience! The energy was fun and lively, and we were highly entertained from start to finish. Loved the diverse music selection. There was truly something for everyone. Be prepared for laughs and a great night out. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a high-energy experience!

Couldn’t love this place more. My husband works security here part-time. The GM Maggie is nothing short of incredible. We had our engagement party here last year and love to come just hang out with friends. Highly recommend!

I ordered a total of 2 drinks here which came out to $37 (btw they weren’t even doubles or anything crazy). The music was okay but not my vibe. Would not come back or recommend unless you want to be ripped off.

Although smaller than expected, we had an absolute blast. We did not have reservations but the bouncer kept an eye out for us and found us seats not too long after being there. They even provided us the LED glow sticks. Drinks were reasonably priced for the entertainment. We did not have any food there, as we ate across the street beforehand. We will definitely go back and make reservations next time.

I had such an amazing time to say the least! There were incredibly talented people performing and they kept the audience engaged throughout the entire show!

Tons of fun, love how they get the crowd involved. I was worried that since the crowd picked all the music that it might not be the best choices, but everyone was lively and involved and willing participants, so hopefully you come on the right night with the right people. Also getting drinks was super easy. The waitress was attentive and somehow always showed up when we needed her most

3/5 stars for two reasons The music is great but if you tip cash for your songs - it's no guarantee they play them and if they do it's not for a WHILE. The shots are great directly from the bar but if you're at a table and order them - they're premade and not cold or good. Also my bf got roofied here :(

We came here on NYE and LOVED it! Bouncers were quick and kept the numbers at a comfortable place. It was packed but the bartenders were awesome and the pianists put on a show! We didn't buy a table but had standing room only- which was easy because it kept you close to the bar. The singers are insanely engaging and the atmosphere is fun and laid back. They always get people onstage and the entire place was dancing. Can't wait for our next visit!

(Ryan Reynolds voiceover) The vibe is happenin' fantastic music is goin' down in Frisco tonight! The Not Smashed to Peaches was the perfect mocktail! Love those peaches! Wanna shake that tree. The Tropical Red Bull the perfect pick me up! The energy was out of this world fun! So much frolicking fun behind the mics and pianos! Hoorah! The service was super fast and friendly! My oh my! So Frisco! Would come back again and drag a bigger group next time! Woohoo!

This is not an upscale place by any means. The chairs are very uncomfortable if you're sitting there for hours. The performers need to have a female so we can hear more girl songs. Sam has the best voice, and it's not bad to look at.

We loved Pete's Dueling Piano Bar when it was in Addison. The parking was horrible but the atmosphere was so much fun. Now that it moved to Frisco, I don't believe it has the same pizzazz. We've been there twice and the audience is low in numbers and not as LOUD as it was in Addison. On the bright side, we could always get a good seat. Drinks are alright, food is okay, pianists are always amazing. You do have to pay 50% more in Frisco but that makes sense.

My wife and I went here for the first time on a date. It's fun, it's loud, the performers are not just musicians, they are comedians and improvers. Pete's gives special attention to Bachelorette parties so there were three on the night I visited. It's also popular for birthdays. Be prepared for some raunchiness! Unfortunately for the entire venue, which is quite large, only one single-stall bathroom was available, unisex. In a bar, this is just not okay. There are two single-stall bathrooms installed, one was out of order (even two is not enough). The bathroom was gross. Cover here is $15 per person so be prepared for that. Lastly, there are at least 4 different performers. We loved the first two performers but an hour later they were switched with two others who simply weren't funny. We left soon after that.

We went on a Saturday night, had a party of 10 with reservations made a few weeks in advance. We had a great table, and had amazing service. I have been to over 10 dueling piano bars around the US and this is top notch! Absolutely an amazing time. You must have reservations or will not have the same experience. The people who have given bad reviews showed up with no reservations expecting to get a good seat.... You can't do that at a popular place like this! The standing room only area for those with no reservations is small and you have to fight the bar for a drink. I can see why people complain, but it's the wrong way to visit this venue.

I went to Pete's for years when they were in Addison. Every time we had out of town guests thats where we would take them. We loved it. They were accommodating and always fantastic customer service. We live in Frisco and were excited when they moved closer to us. 5 minutes away actually from our home. However, We have been there a handful of time since the move, bringing our friends and out of town guests and having work gatherings and birthdays there. The experience EVERY TIME has been less than desirable since the move. At first I justified a new place, people, and getting all their ducks in a row, and working out the kinks, but it never got better. No matter how much we pay or what VIP seats we requested and paid for, we still got stuck off to the side 3 rows back. So I started paying more for better seats, but since my parties were bigger 8-12 they still stuck us off to the side. Their response was its like playing Tetris and we have a big party and we have to accommodate everyone and there is no where to put us. Uh? So why didnt I just pay the $15 per head instead of $50/$100? Same treatment. I have brought this to their attention in person and they are rude and dismissive. Lastly, ever since they started taking venmo or mobile song requests we havent heard our requests at all. We pay cash with the little paper requests sheets. We used to always get our song played and it was personalized. The last 2 times we went, not one song from our entire group was played. That is alot of money and no return. All venmo requests are getting played. The place we loved to go and bring our friends to enjoy an evening or special occasion is terrible since the move. We have tried to give it 2nd chances, 3rd chances etc.. doesn't get better. Its always a rude and a whatever attitude. I would love to be able to continue to go and enjoy but the customer service and vibe is way different. Not worth the money.

Such a fun night to be had here!! As a woman, feeling safe at a bar is my number one priority. and Pete's is incredibly safe with numerous staff on hand. The drinks are awesome, very strong, and the bartenders are so sweet. The music is wonderful and if you come here with some friends on a saturday night, i'm positive you'll have one of the best experiences ever.

Went here for a birthday, and the service was fantastic, even though the waitress had multiple tables, she was beyond attentive! The environment was great as well, would come back for sure!

Been here twice with the wife and will be coming here again and again. Why? Because it's just F'ing fun!

We were here for a friends 50th birthday. This was my first time at this Pete's. Extremely disappointed. Drink cost are ridiculous. $14 and up. Beer 6.50 for btl. Food is OK. Pizza needs to be baked where the crust is crispy not soggy. We were stuck in the back where you can't see anything. There's a sitting area right behind us with no reserve sign however we couldn't stand there as we were told it was reserved. This place really sucked and I would never step foot in this place again. IM DONE...

This place was so much fun! Came here on a Friday night around 9:30 pm and it was packed! We were standing for a good 30 minutes and until I asked a waitress if she could find an empty table for us and luckily she did! Sometimes empty tables are hard to see in between so many people so ask your waitstaff to be sure! It didn't seem like there was a enough waitstaff for the amount of people there, so I always had to go to the bar if I wanted a drink which I didn't mind too much. Unfortunately, I wasn't a big fan of the two different drinks I had. But the pianists were amazing! Make sure to add a nice tip to your song requests if you want it played quicker!

Your face will hurt from smiling and singing all night! Reserve seats because it's always packed & standing room only

We came on a Wednesday and it was pretty empty which we didn't mind at all! Bartenders were nice and the pianist were all fun ! Bring your cash to make sure you can tip them to get your song heard ! Only major downfall is no food! But they do allow you to bring in your own food or they'll order you a pizza from downstairs .

So fun! There's nothing like singing along to your favorites with a large group of strangers. Perfect for bachelorettes, birthdays or just a night out with the girls.

Went to Pete's this past Saturday. The entertainment was a 4 star however the venue gets 1 star fir the following: Too crowded, standing room only with people little touching you like a can of sardines. Not sure what the caricature is but it was crowded. Restrooms: 2, one person, restrooms, that are male/female restrooms! As a grown woman the last thing I want is to go into a restroom that men have urinated all over the seat and floor. It was gross! Sad, we paid a cover to purchase a $7 beer and use a nasty male/female restroom

Service was poor if you don't have a table and reservations. Show was how it's always been - entertainment is awesome. Good is improved over the last location. What makes no sense is that the waiters make their money off of serving / and they just wouldn't.

daisy the server was outstanding. made for a perfect evening. Would highly recommended to others.

This location is ridiculous. I loved the Addison location where it felt like everyone was included. Here you have to reserve and even if there are extra chairs they are taken away from you. Completely ridiculous especially since it's been 100 degrees outside/ ITS TEXAS. Take care of your people better.

while I maintain my prior five star review, I wanted to provide some info some may find helpful. I came down with Covid (not severe, as I had been fully boosted) four days after visiting this place, and am almost certain I caught it here. Do I blame them? no - I knew the risk I was taking in an atmosphere which could not be a better environment for airborne virus transmission (hundreds of people crammed into an enclosed poorly-ventilated room singing at the top of their lungs). But I provide this info to any who might not realize the risk and who do not wish to take that risk. It would be great if these bars had a better mechanism of ventilation. hard to envision what that might be, but the fact of the matter is these places unfortunately provide the perfect transmission environments.

Love this place! Couldn't recommend it more for any kind of party or special occasion. They play and sing anything and everything. My group had SO much fun and I hope to go again.

First time I've been to a place like this. I would have enjoyed it much better if the music was a little lower or I had remembered to bring earplugs.

Went Saturday. Piano team. 5 stars. Place was happening. Great/nice staff. Would go back. My requests got played. Only complaint was the Jell-O shots in syringes. Our group Spend about $250 for them but after 6 myself do not feel any alcohol effects nor tasted anything in them. . I drink maybe once every 4 months and not a heavy person. Does not take much to feel something. After 6 felt nothing. Would skip the jello. But will be back. Had fun.

Nice spot to hangout , live music we went last minute so it wasn't packed but before that we can see the line wrapped around! Bartender was really nice .

Great music and Frida provided awesome service. Must visit if you are in the area. Great time!

Make sure you get a reservation before you go. We got there when they opened, got charged a cover and were told after paying the cover that we could get on a list for a table and it was standing room only. They took our phone number (we were number 3 on the list), charged us $75 for 4 beers and two crappy cocktails and never called us about a table. There are much better Piano bar options in Dallas. Louie, Louie's in Deep Ellum comes to mind.

Frida has been amazing tonight! We are from out of town and she showed us a good time!! Thank you!

I had so much fun at Pete's!! Our server Sylvia was fun, energetic and informative. The drink she suggested for my taste was perfect! The show was great and it was nice to have a server that carried the same vibe. Would definitely come back and recommend!!

I always enjoy coming to Pete's , I request Sylvia each time, she is such a joy to be around! her bubbly personality makes our day! i recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun bar!

Love this place! I used to go to it when it was located in Addison and this was my first time going since it reopened in Frisco! The performers are always awesome. I just wish it was a little bit bigger on the inside because it definitely gets crowded and there's not many places to stand without feeling like you're in the way. Lots of specialty drink options here as well - I always gets reeled into the Jell-O shots

We had a blast at this place. Yes, it's insanely crowded, there's only standing room most of the time, and the restrooms are gross, but it is fun! Ladies: don't wear uncomfortable heel's because you may actually be standing the whole time!

Let me just say if you plan on going here, you need to make reservations. Thank God we did. The only problem is these tables are so small they should not sit more than three people at a table. We literally had to eat our food on our lap because there wasn't enough room for our food and drinks. The entertainment was awesome. The service was very slow. By the time we got our second drink, we were sober from the first. I know they're still working out the kinks. My nachos were awesome but my friends food was cold. Our server was very nice but they didn't have near enough servers working. So I would suggest you make reservations at least two months in advance, and only have three people per table. When you order your food and drink get there early so you can order everything before it gets busy. I would order several drinks because it will take forever to get your third period. The entertainment, though was awesome. The girl that sings is so talented. Not only does sing, she plays the drums and the guitar. We loved the entertainment!!

Here's a great place for parites - small, large, birthday, or otherwise. We rented the whole place and brought in about 75 people. We could have easily added 30 to 40 more. Seating was fine for our size group, but might get a little cramped at full capacity. They have a small menu, but this is mainly a drinking bar. We catered food in as part of our package and made use of their bar which is nicely stocked with premium liquors. The performers are the real draw here. They're experienced pros and play the crowd really well. If you sit near the stage someone in your party will likely get pulled into the action. Smoking outside the door on the back balcony.

Come with cash in hand! Pete's Dueling Piano Bar is a typical piano bar, where the musicians take requests for songs, but actually spend most of their time bringing people up on stage for funny stunts. Given this approach, it's the type of thing you do as a part of a birthday party, or bachelorette party, or when friends are in town. It's also great if you want to go "out" but not go to a club dancing. But - it's NOT the type of thing you'd go and do every weekend, because it would get really old, really quick. We showed up on Friday night around 9pm. There is a valet out front that is a $5 charge - be sure you don't spend all your cash on song requests! A quick jaunt up some stairs (that smelled horrible, by the way) led us to the entrance of Pete's. There was no line at all when we arrived, so we paid our $10 fee and ventured inside. By the time we arrived, all tables & chairs were taken, but we were happy enough lingering at one of the two bar areas, as they were completely empty. It gave us plenty of room for dancing or talking. Plus, we were able to get a drink as soon as we wanted - the bartenders were not busy at all. The tables & chairs, which require reservations, looked tiny tiny and totally crammed in together. The music itself was pretty good, with most songs being played pop songs or 90s hits. I didn't see many people requesting songs, but this is one of my favorite parts of going to a piano bar. I wrote two songs on a slip of paper and, in an effort to ensure one of the two songs was played, paired it with a $10 bill. I couldn't even make it to the stage as tables & chairs were blocking the path, but one of the piano players came and grabbed my request. We waited about an hour and a half to two hours and neither song was ever played. That's disappointing. Drinks were pricey, but the bartenders were really friendly and fast. I wish they had draft beer, or at least more beer options. It was pretty limited. I couldn't help ordering one of the Schooners to share. We got the Planter's Punch, and it was good but very sweet! I was pleased with my duck to take home. Admittedly: I am a die-hard fan of Howl at the Moon, and I think they do the dueling piano gig much better than Pete's. At Pete's it felt like every other song was another opportunity to bring folks up on stage for some sort of embarrassment. I think HATM musicians play more of a variety, and I prefer the focus on request-taking. I also like that most HATMs have a dance floor, Pete's does not. However, since there's no Howl at the Moons in the Dallas area, Pete's is a great choice to fill the piano bar void. I'll probably be back with out-of-town friends in tow. I'd also like to come back on a weeknight to see how the scene is different with less bachelorettes and birthdays. It's a worthwhile way to spend an evening - just be prepared to spend a nice chunk of your entertainment budget for the month!

This bar has a lively, fun, and interactive atmosphere. Tons of seating (not that you will need one) and two bars flanking the main stage of rotating musicians singing your favorite songs and it's all audience requests. I will say the drinks were a little more than I wanted to pay, it is very loud so be prepared, and the bathrooms have a line throughout the night but that's all to be expected. Overall, a great and unique experience in Addison.

I was visiting from California and finally decided to go out to check out the night life in Addison. I was not disappointed! This place is one of the best piano bars I have been too. The musicians are amazing and the engagement with the audience is exceptional. I enjoyed e every bit and was sad to leave around 12, since we planned to go to another place, the night was still young! The place got crowded but had enough space to move around. People don't really stand up and dance, it's not that kind of place so it was ok. Our server was very polite and professional. Since they come and get the order, you don't have to walk around. They had huge Jell-O shots, it was a shot and I was impressed lol 4 stars because the menu wasn't very impressive. Few items mostly pizza. The drinks barely had alcohol. One of my friends drinks literally tasted like juice. Also, the drink prices were not high considering it only having that much alcohol. Little disappointing!!

I've been here twice and never been disappointed. There's a $10 cover fee, which is understandable, but birthdays are free of cover for that person. When you first enter, you can hear the crowd be very engaged and the pianists know how to hype the crowd up very well. You sometimes see another side of people or even yourself after a few laughs and drinks. Definitely would recommend and have a little patience for a table. Looking forward to be back!

Went here with a group to celebrate a birthday. Visited the co-ed bathroom when I got there, which was within an hour of them opening and the bathroom was dirty . Walls are tiled but not washed down . Gross. No excuse for why a bathroom should look like this . It doesn't make sense to have co-ed bathrooms unless you have bathroom attendants to maintain it. So obviously, off to a bad start! On my way back to the table, I stopped at the bar to get a drink. The bar tender in the middle section had the personality of the wooden bar top! No smile, no thank you. And I saw him using his fingers to add the garnishes to drinks! Needless to say, I got a drink without any garnishes! Entertainers were good, but not great. Seemed like their main focus is the tips from song requests. I expected better , frankly. I really didn't like how they made fun of people on stage . People don't pay to be insulted at their birthday party! Waitresses were good. Drinks were inconsistent. Some good, some weak Overall, I would not recommend this venue., which is a shame. It is in a great location and has so much potential.

Love, love, LOVEEE this place!! I came here for the first time on Saturday night and it is honestly one of my new favorite places. The music is great and the drinks are fantastic!! As soon as you walk into Pete's, there is just this glow of happiness in the room. I absolutely loved the energy. Now, I do recommend getting here early because this place gets packed QUICK. I got here around 8 and it was already difficult to find a seat. A really amazing part about this place is that the walls have chalkboards so that you can sign your name! I thought that was a unique and creative idea All of the songs that were played were super fun to sing along to and it's a great place to bring a date or bring friends.

This place is a lot of fun, best for groups. The performers are wildy talented and entertaining. Drinks are decent, and while they don't have a kitchen, they'll order pizza for you!

Such a friendly vibe! It's a nice area and the crew plays an array of genres. We had so much fun

I always have a fantastic time here and I have to say a large part of it is because of the staff! The bartenders and bouncers are super friendly and contribute to the fun atmosphere. The pianists and performers on stage do a great job of getting everyone involved. Whether you're an introvert or extrovert, you can't help but have a great time! There is a cover charge which I don't ever remember how much so just make sure to bring some cash. (I want to say it's like $10 but don't quote me) The drinks are fabulous here. If you have a group you can split a few fish bowl drinks or if that's not your style there's plenty of Jell-O shots circulating around. If you're feeling frisky you can even do a syringe shot. There's a photo booth if you want to document your night but you might not want to if you're in a drunkin stupor and get pulled up on stage. Trust me it happens! You may even do an embarrassing thing after working up some liquid courage and give a bouncer your number. Guilty! I highly recommend not doing that though... I'm pretty sure food is served here but as many times as I've been here I've never eaten here. The place itself is decently clean and same goes for the bathrooms. Like any other bar, be prepared to wait in line for the lady's room. 10/10 recommend having a good time here PS take an Uber, don't drink and drive.

Cover is $10 per person. We made a reservation online & it was confirmed via email the same day. The staff was smiling the prices were fair & the parking was plentiful. It was my wife & i's first time actually coming & listening to the music - we've always heard it in the neighboring hall while waiting to go into the Improv. The vibe was amazing. Everyone is singing along - genuinely having a good time. The age didn't matter - it was all a good time. Dress code is just presentable so you can come as the belle of the ball or as schmo jo from work. We had a waiter & when I find my receipt I will add his name because he was so kind. He assisted us with the very elaborate drink menu, gave us his drink preferences & helped us with the food options as well. We ordered the pork nachos - jalapeños on the side & they were really good. The menu is purely bar food - just know that. Order the Bangarang!! I will be returning!! Xo.

Amazing place... love it. Highly recommended. You have to go... great atmosphere, nice people love the dongers

YOUR OWN ADULT DISNEYWORLD Can you imagine finding the dark door leading up a golden staircase of magical wonders. What do you hear? What do you see? Pay your $10 coverage charge on the weekend and enter the kingdom of Sing Alongs and cocktails galore. On first impression, you see the cozy bar on the right entertaining with fun drinks, the vast audience congregating in the sea of wooden chairs and windows, and of course, the center stage dueling pianos. With the sounds of the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, top 40 songs, country, and more; there is music for everyone to sing along. It is a lot to take in, but it helps to set the stage in your head that you are in a modern times jazz bar. Sit and relax, sing your heart out, navigate the Conga line around the entire piano bar, and enjoy the good times, kid-at-heart Disney style. NOTE: Designated drivers can enjoy a complimentary Red Bull The DRINKS: DRINKS THAT SNEAK THE ALCOHOL INTO YOU Sour Diesel: DIESEL WITH A MUCH NEEDED KICK Unfortunately known as "The Sour D," the Sour Diesel offers fuel for outrageous laughs and joy for your night away from it all. It consists of Colorado High Vodka, Peach Schnapps, Pinnacle Whipped Vodka, and pineapple and cranberry juices. There is more than meets the eye with this electric lime-Kool Aid-esque cocktail as it offers sharp sweetness balanced out by the lightly bitter alcohol. A refreshingly mild sour kick tops off the cocktail, but just enough to keep your lips from puckering up. Very fruity and sugary, but helps to keep your face focused on the entertainment before you. Austin's Texas Tea: TEATIME JUST GOT BETTER Indistinguishable from sweet tea in appearance, but packs more of a punch in taste. Sharply sweet with the citrus scent and flavor from the Bacardi Limon Vodka. It also consists of tequila, orange liqueur, sours, and a coke floater. Well balanced and slightly acidic, this drink offers a refreshing Southern taste to your night of singing, jamming, and overall good time. The VERDICT: FAST SONGS AND FAST TIMES AT PETE'S DUELING PIANO BAR. Lets face it, no one wants to be alone with a bottle or drink of alcohol in their hands. Most of the time, we are singing in our drunken galore, but do not want a formal audience making us feel judged. Here at Pete's Dueling Piano Bar, you can have everything without the guilt. Singing at the top of your lungs will be met with boisterous joy and energy. Come as one, leave as a choir of merry times. When in doubt, definitely go for Austin's Texas Tea. When you want to try something with a little more zing, go for the Sour Diesel (I know you want to order the Sour D). Without a doubt, I will be back to Pete's Dueling Piano Bar and I anticipate it will be even better with each visit.

Love Pete's!!! Spent my 20th bday there last night, The bouncer Jesse is amazing and friendly! Best bar in Fort Worth!!!

My girlfriend and I went here for the first time last Saturday and will definitely come here again! I've heard about Pete's for a while and finally finally finally we went! First off, be prepared for a packed house. The place was completely full of people and there were no tables or chairs to sit at. We came in around 10PM , but there is plenty of room to stand in the back. No matter where you are in the bar, you'll have a good view of the stage and hear the pianists well! The pianists themselves were REALLY good. Not only did they play really well, but they were actually pretty good singers. They play most of the popular modern day songs and sometimes play some older songs too. I was impressed with how much audience participation there was and I loved it! If you have a friend you want to embarrass, tell them to get onto the stage! They take song requests and singing loud is ALWAYS encouraged. The drinks here weren't super expensive and the bartenders/waitresses were really nice and attentive. Try their signature syringe jello shots! Don't worry, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about when you see them. Overall, if you love music and singing, this is the place to go to. The fun atmosphere and great music outweighs how packed it is in there and the drinks are on point. This was our first time going to Pete's and will definitely not be our last! Drink on y'all!
