Chorus Karaoke: Half-Price Rooms and Drinks, Sun–Thu 5–7pm
Chorus Karaoke takes 50% off its private karaoke rooms and its drinks from 5 to 7pm, Sunday to Thursday. It’s on the third floor at 25 W 32nd St in Koreatown, and doors open at 5pm, so the discount runs from the first minute.
The verdict: this is one of the better ways to sing in Midtown without a painful bill, because the half-off hits the room rate and the bar tab at the same time. Most happy hours only touch drinks. The catch is the clock. Two hours is short for a group that wants to settle in, and Friday and Saturday get nothing; those nights belong to the live DJs and a 4:30am close.
The Happy Hour
- When: Sunday to Thursday, 5–7pm.
- Rooms: 50% off every private room, from the Standard Room to the VIP Room.
- Drinks: 50% off at the bar and the lounge: cocktails, beer, bottles and soju, poured at the lounge bar or delivered to your room.
- For scale: the regular list has Jameson and Jack Daniel’s at $10 a shot and $15 a glass, and soju at $20.
