HIDDEN GEM ALERT!!!!! My partner and I were in the area to catch a show at rough trade and were looking for a happy hour. This one exceeded expectations with drink and food selection and quality. The chicken tenders were so good, and the onion rings definitely fulfilled a months-long craving! They also had about a dozen varieties of white claw, including a lot of flavors most bars don't typically have. Loved to watch random people perform karaoke too. Excited to come back!

Came for the 50% drinks and food happy hour! M-F 1-7pm. It was dead when we came at 3pm but picked up around 5pm. The bartender Aaron was really nice and fun to chat with. We got 4 cocktails and the wings-- all 50% off. We were going to leave after 2 cocktails and bar hop but Aaron made it a fun spot to hang out. Cool, eclectic, fun spot for drinks or karaoke or both. Love that they had a box of free vintage records outside! Only giving 4 stars instead of 5 because although they were strong (great value), the cocktails, although good, weren't the best I've ever had (but at 50% off they were a great value; no complaints).

Went to RPM Underground with a small work group. Elevated Dive Bar with great rooms, decent food and unbeatable prices! During happy hour--early afternoon until 7pm on a weeknight--all was 50% off. Group of 10 people with food non alcoholic drinks was approx $250!

Fantastic experience -- booked a room at RPM for a 30th bday with a group of 30 and it was a great experience. From checking out the place to booking/ logistics, Raj was very helpful & transparent about all pricing. When we got to the event, Kristen took care of our room and WOW we were blown away. She was so calm, and helpful, and had an incredible attitude. What a fantastic spot to host an event! We will be back

I came here on a Thursday night with coworkers! It was a lot of fun. You have to enter down the stairs. We had a private room. A server comes to your room to introduce themselves and get drink orders. The bathrooms are unisex and there are multiple stalls with open sinks. They had a lot of songs to choose from! There are 2 booklets and you can also scan a QR code. Service is bad, so there is wifi.

Bad air conditioner that's why my colleagues left .  The bar was empty.

My colleagues and I kept coming back here because of its convenient location from our work. HOWEVER! Do not come here in the summer . !!! They have a VERY weak air-conditioner. We have complained to the bartenders to increase the AC but they said it's not really strong enough. The 2 ceiling fans at the bar area can not be rotate either. Last week, we rented a big room and same problem. It was soooo hot ! We complained and the bartender said that's ALL THERE IS. Same thing happened last summer of 2024. I think the owner should be notified about the issue. The bartenders were sweaty and uncomfortable too. But they can't do anything.

Karaoke room

A great karaoke lounge, bar, and record store. Drinks can be delivered directly to the lounge or purchased at the bar. There are many rooms and they also offer karaoke at the bar. The decor was interesting- lots of comic and figurine themes. Service was good and had a great time.

This karaoke spot is cool, and super unique. Love the vinyl shop upstairs and the cool decor downstairs. Vintage magazines and memorabilia fill the halls and rooms. Each room having its own aesthetic. They also offer open karaoke at the bar. The staff were cool. They offer 85,000 songs; majority being on their website and some in the book. Finding songs on the website is a bit wonky. Ordered some food, which was surprisingly good (except the cheese for the cheese fries). Overall a really great experience.

4.5 STARS Date: Monday, May 6th, 2024 Time: around 12:15am Party of: 7 What: Karaoke of course! *Oban 14: neat ($22) *Hendricks ($18): Cocktail ($2) *Bulleit Rye ($18): Cocktail ($2) *Jameson: neat ($15) *Karaoke: Song ($3) x8 My group LOVES karaoke. In fact, at home, we would always end the night at a karaoke bar. When one of the boys realized there was one right by his hotel, we all decided to stop by. I think there was only one other group of two when we got here, so we more or less had the space to ourselves. They have a fairly good selection of songs. Not the most comprehensive, but I think there may have been other books we didn't see? But the normal songs we always sing were there - What Do You Mean, Ribbon in the Sky, I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing, etc. It had been a while since my group got together for karaoke, so it was nice finding a spot to sing our hearts out. And not really having to wait for songs was awesome! Great spot to get your song on. Especially on a chill Sunday night. REVIEW #3411

Are you 18+?

My friends and I are 18, would we be able to get in?

Hello! Thank you for reaching RPM! Unfortunately, we are strictly a 21 and over establishment.

What is the dress code and if there isn't one, how are most people dressing?

I've been to this location 3 different times. First thing i want to say is the entry here can be…read moredeceiving and the elevator to go up is old and small. But once upstairs it's so nice. The first time i came here, my cousin rented a room for karaoke for her bday and we brought bottles and ate before coming. It was about 8 of us. It's very affordable and we even got some more drinks in the lobby after. The second time my friend wanted to come for her birthday we had a much smaller room as it was only 5 of us. Same good experience your rent per person per hour and it's very affordable. The last time i came was for my bachelorette party. I didn't want the traditional vibes i wanted a night out with the girls and my cousin booked a party bus and time here. We got a huge room upstairs as it was more than 12 of us and we had a great time singing 80-90s and early 2000s music esp boy bands which are my favorite. The staff here is nice and friendly and everything is very clean except the restroom. Restroom is small and a bit dingy, def needs an upgrade but otherwise, clean. I would def come back for a girls night out or celebration. It's my fave karaoke location for sure

Planned a little going away party for a coworker. They enjoy Karaoke and Gagopa was perfect. Make…read morereservations. I made reservations 1 month in advance for a Saturday night session. Super easy to do online. It's BYO Beer, Food, Drinks, Cakes, etc. they have plastic cutlery and plats available. They also provide you with a tub of ice. It's $12 per person per hour. We had so much fun that we extended an hour and they were able to accommodate that. They also sell some beverages if you want but it's more cost friendly to bring your own. They also give a discount if you pay cash but they do accept card or cash as payment. It is located in middle of K-town. It is easy to miss and the elevator is tiny (no more than 5 people at a time) or stairs. They also card everyone to ensure you're above 21yo so don't forget your ID.
