"The Deal: 50% Off All Drinks, Food, And Karaoke (Only In the Public Bar And Front Rooms) This bar has 17 themed karaoke rooms, including one that’s all about the Avengers and another called “Sunset Blvd” with LA sleaze vibes. If you don’t get a private room, there’s a large industrial-looking public space with two bars and an in-house vinyl shop. They also do live comedy from time to time." - bryan kim, kenny yang, will hartman
"RPM is a very large venue that feels like a funhouse with 18 private karaoke rooms, an in-house vinyl shop, and two large bars. Their half-off weekday happy hour is six hours long, and it covers everything, from food and drinks to karaoke." - bryan kim, neha talreja
"You’re never too old to have a themed birthday party at one of the 18 themed karaoke rooms at RPM Underground—just decide whether you want Marvel madness in the Avengers room or LA sleaze in the Sunset Blvd. room. The huge venue also hosts comedy, an in-house vinyl shop, and two bars." - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, sonal shah, tiffany yannetta
"Starts At: $50/hour for up to 5 people Sure, “off-key Katy Perry” is kind of a theme, but these themed karaoke rooms are on another level. Located under RPM’s record store in Midtown, the basement bar has 18 private rooms for 5-30 people. Check out old comic books between shots in the Avengers room, or the antique radio collection in the Radio Room. There’s even a Queens Plaza room with a full wall of NYC license plates. Thanks to the music heads upstairs, the songbook is robust, and that strong Thor-themed cocktail will give you all the juice you need to attempt a Whitney note with unearned confidence. They also have an unlimited Karaoke Brunch for $39, which includes 90 minutes of tunes, unlimited drinks, and one brunch entree." - bryan kim, neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick
"Capacity: 40 RPM Underground takes private karaoke rooms and turns them all the way up with themes like The Avengers and Sunset Blvd. Most regular rooms have a capacity of 5 to 12, but parties with up to 40 people can rent one of the larger rooms with diner, fashion, and Marilyn Monroe themes. We fully endorse adults having comic-book themed birthday parties, especially when the party favors are so much better than those plastic goodie bags from Party City." - Nikko Duren, Bryan Kim, Neha Talreja
