However, Replay Karaoke in particular had outstanding customer service by Allan and his team who not only made the night reach its climax but also gave my friends and I a slice of social comfort and peace. Normally I shop from bar to bar but due to this one particular experience I am now looking forward to my immediate return to enjoy the night once again. Thank you Allan and your team for being such great hosts.

I guess it does stand out a bit, being an Irish Pub and all that, but there really wasn't anything about this place that did anything to actually grab my attention, or even my imagination. Sure, they had a couple of decent beers, and the staff were okay, but it really isn't one of those pubs that I'd visit again.

Hidden just off the main street of Marrickville up a few flights of stairs you walk in to a awesome bar with the roof painted with a huge Kama sutra mural and tin roof tiles and leather lounges. Licensed to 3am with great wines and boutique beers on tap.

Jazz hands... What an eclectic, eccentric and too cool for…read moreyou, place this is. LazyBones is about as underground as you can get on the second level. It's a Jazz club with live acts every night, its a bar lounge. It's sophisticated dark and intimate. " Once you're inside Step back", says the purple haired door mistress with the voice activated LED t shirt, "and look up". Apparently painted by a famous Sydney artist, there is a huge mural on the ceiling. The place was pumping on Friday night. Jimmy Vargas and Mia Mortal (say it slowly... ) Vargas like a Brian Ferry look-a-like is apparently a self titled 'Croonoir' from San Francisco's cabaret. Mia Mortal has been sashaying the burlesque scene for the past 25 years. The show was a stunner. The Owner Craig was at the door when we walked in, he told us he'd moved up from Melbourne, and had been running clubs like Lazybones for years. He said "If it's not underground, I'm not interested" I liked his Moxie, and I had to concur. The hipster scene seems finally on it's knees with the clientele here being an over 30s crowd. I admit, I felt very relaxed. I even saw a member of a well known Sydney rock band here. If you want to stay ahead of the game? Say Hello to sophisticated class! Lazybones you're doing it right. $10 on the door gets you entry. Wine and Beer are priced reasonably, cocktails at $18 seemed a little pricey, but it looked like top shelf liquor. The menu, while I didnt try it, featured "Bunny Chow" with pick your own topping for around $12 as I recall. There were also Samosas and curries. It's very loud on a Friday night, Adults only. Good for date night or a chilled out trip into sin alley.

Probably one of the best karaoke places I've been to in Chinatown so far. The equipment is very new…read more(touchscreen for selecting songs, and nice LCD screens including a big one in the main area), and easy to use (even for people who don't read Chinese) and has a good collection of songs. Best time to go is during the week (not Friday/Saturday nights) because its only $5 per person per hour. Though if I could change something to make this place better, I'd probably waive the $50 cash only deposit (especially if no-one drinks anything)

This was my first time at a Karaoke Bar and I was puuuuumped. However we were introduced with some…read morebad news when we got to the front of the bar. There wasn't a free room till 1AM. That was almost an hour and a half wait. We thought it'd be fine to wait it out if we got drinks and chilled. We entered. The placed was decked out and bumping for sure. Very spacious, very modern. I loved it. I felt like I was in Rush Hour 2. Got a shot. 10 bucks. Ouch. But standard I assume. Didn't take card cause they had a minimum. Ugh. There was a common area for everyone to observe whoever it was's turn to sing. To even get a chance for that, was another hour wait. Friends didn't like their pina coladas. Bathrooms were dope and beautiful. Took some bathroom selfies, not gonna lie. Left soon after we took our shots. Gotta plan ahead of time before coming here. Don't go on a whim like we did unless you wanna be disappointed.

Of course many people have probably never even heard of this place. Most people walk by without…read moreeven realising it exists. You hardly notice it, but there is a sign right there for everyone to see. At least then, the owners are doing something right. Most people hear about The Secret Cafe via word of mouth. The place mostly resembles a karaoke joint, cafe and kids club mixed in one. Once you exit this dodgy looking elevator you enter a main room which is radically different. On one wall there's a shelf full of board games and lounges where yes, you can actually play while you have your regular mocha latte. There are seven individually themed rooms which you can book out by the hour. It costs about $5 per person, per hour but you'll be able to keep yourself busy with the Nintendo wii, Playstation, Xbox, depending on which room you choose. However, some of the rooms have a minimum number of people you need to pay for - it doesn't work on a first come, first serve basis. The touch screen ordering system makes everything hassle-free to order from your room, while you lounge around and kick ass at Tekken.

The Pickled Possum. Could you get a more ocker name? I'm sure the alliteration was merely…read morecoincidental. The Possum has been a Military Road mainstay for years. It's a late-night karaoke joint, the place to go when all other places to go are shut and you're too drunk to go home or know better. It's packed with a motley crew of young and old, mainly old, and the damn place bangs. The husband and wife team behind the bar (at least I think it's a husband and wife team) are slow as molasses and scoop ice into your drink from a small esky atop the bar. It works. You don't come here to pick up, look good, or do anything other than caterwaul on the stage to shitty '80s power ballads and bad '90s RnB while the crowd in front of you sways put of time and spills beer on each other. Never go away, Pickled Possum. There is quite literally no other lace like you and never will be.

Their song list sits on 2 pieces of old A4 paper so expect to hear the same songs over and over again. The sound system is horrendous so you won't hear anyone's voices unless you're 2 metres from the stage. The 'DJ' who has english as a 3rd or 4th language is without charisma. Also as a bar it only serves bottled beer and if you're there first they won't let you sing until your group has bought enough drinks. Try anywhere else.
