I had a lovely time here! It was very fun - bartenders were friendly, drinks were well made and reasonably priced. Karaoke was a blast!

Awesome all inclusive neighborhood bar that is the Uptown Cheers equivalent for those of us that live near by. They make everyone feel welcome, loyal to those loyal to them and will make every effort to ensure a fun, safe and enjoyable time is had by all.

Came in because I saw a sign that says they sell 6packs of beer to go. I went in and didn't know which beers to choose so the bartender helped me pick a nice variety of beers and I was not dissapointed. He was even nice enough to let me know that I can get a 6pack from a liquor store for half the price if I was willing to walk 10 minutes away but I told him I was in a rush and left him a decent tip for being so kind and helpful.

The owner Jen is AMAZING! You can tell she really cares about her bar and her customers. I love an owner that's as involved as Jen. 10/10 would recommend!

Low key type of bar. I visited on a Sunday night, and I can honestly only give it a review for that specific time of the week. Not a bad place to grab a drink with a friend, or a date. Quite and cozy.

Great neighborhood bar. Good specials on some days of the week and they have karaoke nights often. I like that is open late and has a low key vibe.

Best late bar in the neighborhood. They also sell beers to go which is nice when you don’t feel like walking a ways to get late night beer for the house.

T.J. is awesome! Atmosphere is amazing. Don't ask stupid questions or but on a pretentious persona and you will enjoy this upscale city limit delight.

Fun time singing and be silly and I loved that I could order food to be delivered right to my table in a timely manner from a third party. Such a smart idea. Save money on staff, kitchen appliances wear and tear, labor... Just hire a third party to deliver good bar food in a timely and technologically professional manner.The venue was clean, the staff was very nice, and the karaoke guy was super nice and fun too. I don't normally like karaoke but this place was great and I'd do it again!

Sells six packs of domestics until closing. Perfect for industry people like me that don't get off until after liquor stores have closed. Is pretty popular for bar patrons so there's almost always a crowd. Staff is bucking but always friendly! Great karaoke!

Nice place. Very clean bathrooms. Good beer selection. Seems like a really good place to get warmed up before you head to the Aragon Ballroom for a show.

Cool little spot right off the Lawrence L station. Good selection of liquors and sometimes they have live music. Thank goodness it's not a cash only bar

Ahhhhh! Karaoke hunty! This my go to spot. Dj is fkn awesome and has some great skills on te mic too. He will find a song even if it's not in the book , if he can't he may reccomend something else by same artist. Cozy, dimly lit ( for the shy folks) but it really gets cracking after midnight on the weekends. Very supportive crowd. Cheap drinks, def my fav.

Funky little neighborhood place worthy of a stop after any show at the Aragon or Riviera. We ended up doing shots with one of the bands.

This amazing lounge has the BEST karaoke in CHITOWN, hands down !! They have ALL the songs ~ new & old !! The atmosphere, the staff, and the vibes are pitch perfect for a night out with your girls, after a corporate softball game, to unwind and have an epic night. ❤?????????

Amazing STAPLE of the neighborhood. If you go to a show at any of the three theaters, I imagine you will visit here. Karoke, modern drink selection. A good time.

Love this place! Has a local neighborhood feel. You'll see the same friends and new faces week after week. With karaoke, live bands, and other exciting events there's always something going on at Uptown Lounge! Come alone or bring your party. You'll have fun either way!

A good place to relax and have a drink or two. They have great specials throughout the week along with karaoke nights. And you don't want to miss the burlesque show when it comes through!

Decent place to hangout with friends for drinks. Karaoke was enjoyable and fun. Drinks are reasonable. The only con for me is no food. Could be a great after work hangout if they had at least some small bites/plate options. However, I do think they allow you to order/bring food.
