“ Come on down, this is a place where you have different woalks of life, cultures, and, ethnicities, but everybody is family e ery stranger. I love the vibe karaoke was on wed and the dj is real nice, and had a plether of song from various genres ”
“ High end, members only club. All entrants are vetted and have passed background checks, and the performers are of the highest tier. Last night, in just one evening, I understood the true meaning of Yeah! by Usher, learned what the Fox Says, and found myself thrust against a Rock and a Hard Place, only to emerge as a better version of myself. I cannot thank Uncle Fester enough for this experience ”
“ Had a great time here this past Saturday. This was the only place I could find around Columbia to have karaoke on a Saturday night. The singers were all personable and fun (and a few were really good), and the DJ (Harry) did a great job and kept a clean rotation. If it is your first time there, the bartender explained to me that they can't serve you hard liquor based on their license as a private club. So, I just had beer instead. Next time I'm in town I'll be back for sure. ”
“ This place does not serve food. However, it is a wonderful place to meet friends and to listen to local artists perform. Sunday is an open mic for music, songs, poetry, & comedy. Fun place and everyone is welcome. ”
“ I come here just about every Friday and Saturday and I absolutely love Haley and miss leigh. They always take care of us and make sure we have a great time. Best bartenders in the city. ”
“ Brandon is sweet and attentive, Greg did a phenomenal job getting us checked in for the show, and the space was clean. Definitely a must in Columbia! It did surprise me that the only food available were chips that night; not sure why that was. Regardless, it's a great venue! ”
“ Had a great time singing karaoke here on Friday and Saturday. Everyone was very personable. Bartenders Lee and Hailey make great drinks! No problems here at all! 10/10 recommend if you are in Columbia. No food, just chips. It is a private club, therefore, your first time here you have to have beer/wine to make sure you can respect the place. I love it! ”
