K2 Karaoke Nightclub in Manchester

Came here today with a large group and a few of us weren't drinking alcohol, we were assured that 2 soft drinks each were included in the price of the karaoke however where it came to the end of our session we had to pay for all the soft drinks. Not ideal customer service.

The venue is nice and staff are nice, but they had almost no songs, literally 90% of well known multiple number 1 hit artists I searched they had no songs from at all, I think they had about 1/5 the selection of the next best karaoke place I've been to (of dozens), plus the program for searching for songs and artists was severely janky and broken, causing constant issues, and you can't even search in Japanese (no Japanese OSK) meaning you can't access most of the Japanese songs in their catalogue at all, and can't search or display romaji. Borderline unusable system and severe lack of songs spoiled what could've been really fun karaoke. The staff tried to help and were nice but there's only so much they can do with the system being what it was

We’d booked an hour but didn’t have that amount of time to sing as -we were shown to our room late (they should provide a buffer/swap over period in between bookings) -there was a technical issue with the sound (this should all be checked in that buffer time and made sure the systems are ready to use by your allocated and booked time) -the singing was abruptly stopped by a server coming in mid song to pause the singing and take payment for our drinks (no receipt was offered so we couldn’t check if the bill was correct. Also, just take the payment at the end!) -twice servers came in the room to say we had 20 mins then 10 mins left. This shaved around 7-10 mins off our singing time (that’s 11-16%of the time) which isn’t insignificant. There is a 5% service charge added to the booking, and a further 10% service charge added to any drinks you order to the room. The music choice is ok. Some of the 2024 songs aren’t available but there is enough to make sure everyone can sing something. The room was air conditioned, which was great. The tablet/screen that you use to choose the songs was big enough and easy enough to be used. Room seemed clean too. Note: the venue isn’t accessible. The rooms are up many flights of stairs and the lift was not offered to use and was not working.

Casey was so amazing love her so much

It was a blast from start and didn't actually want it to finish tbh😂

Small, dingy and needs renovations, old equipment However had a great time

Came here with my friend on Friday and absolutely loved it! I'm already planning another visit with a larger group of friends. Liked the fact we could order drinks and food straight to our booth and a large selection of songs to choose from. Unfortunately, there were a few that we wanted to sing that weren't available, but we soon found ones to replace them.

order food and took like 40 minutes to come which was a flop because we literally only ordered chips and nuggets, the servers were nice though! song selection could be better but was still more than enough to have a great time. bouncers were HILARIOUS. overall karaoke was AMAZING would recommend!!

Room service for drinks and food. Comfortable, clean space. Would’ve been good to have a bigger music selection but we found enough to keep us happy for 2 hours!

Great place for a private karaoke room. You can order drinks from your room on a tablet device and they magically appear. Don't book 1 hour. It's not long enough and you don't get any bar tab from the money you put in. Just book 2. To be honest we usually book two 2 hour slots cause sometimes 2 hours is still not enough :D.

Generally, it was a good experience but the sofa in the room I used is dilapidated and they do not have much Gospel songs options. K2 Karaoke need to incorporate more Gospel songs in their system.

Felt like the place has gone down hill from the last time I went, some of the songs have disappeared, the fries tasted soapy, far to expensive for the experience we had.

Was a very fun seamless night thanks to their great service and song selection! All the customer service assistants were very friendly and helpful, particularly Martyna! Would love to come back some time!

K2 is the best place for karaoke I have found in the uk, the staff was very attentive and ensured that we had a great time! Special thanks to Louisa on the reception who made our night extra special, the room was really big and the drinks came quickly, at the end of our session we even extended by an hour because we enjoyed ourselves so much

For a group of 9 the room was very small we ordered drinks straight away and they came 10 minutes before the end of our hour was up. Not well organised but a fun night

Really good fun. Karaoke machines are a little bit glitchy but the staff are super helpful. Finding Western/rock music is a bit challenging as the machines are geared towards kpop but that is likely a big plus for many people.

i came in the other week and had the most amazing time with my friends on my hen do. casey is exceptional. she was very helpful and accommodating. i would highly reccomend visiting k2 to antibody who is looking for a mint karaoke experience

Place is an absolute mess. Charge 5£ for entry, no till no receipt. Ordered beer came over to the stage to regester for karaoke song. Came back to see my friends being roughtly and with no explenation kicked out by a very rood bouncer. Then just told to go. Never again.

We didn't eat but the atmosphere and service was perfect for kareoke !

Very accommodating and friendly staff, will definitely come back again. Had a great time ☺️

honestly best experience we’ve ever done. come with people your close and comfortable with and go for it!!! we could have stayed all just

Drinks took a while to come which by the end we still had plenty left and wasn't allowed to extend our time so we wasted a lot. One of us asked for a bottle of water which the server told us would cost £8, disgusted by the price we then asked for just a tap water which never even came. Although there is a good amount of songs to choose from we found there also is a lot of songs not on the list.

The staff were extremely friendly, Phil was especially wonderful. The cocktails were to die for and the food was lovely. The music variety could be better but all in all cannot complain. Will definitely be coming back soon!

Great fun, good value and great for groups

Love it! Great service and well priced drinks 🫶

If you want somewhere to have a laugh, let loose and do it care free; here is the place. The service is quick yet thorough, fairly priced and bags of fun. Take your girls, or guys, get drunk or stay sober. This is the place for your nights.

Loved the whole experience, the staff were so lovely, the drinks were really good and the atmosphere of karaoke booths were perfect. 6 definitely come again!

Had a great time with my group of 6 for a hen do. Thanks Jeff and team!

Casey was fantastic, such a good host and helped us feel comfortable 💕

Always have a great time here! Our go to Karaoke bar!

Door staff are bullies , absolutely awful. Place I'd bet money most positive reviews are fakes they will not be receiving my money again I'd recommend avoiding this pace

Incredibly expensive for a smelly average experience .

Hello I'm ASKING do you have russian songs or not? can you add them if not? I haven’t been here yet, but I’m planning to book a room, if you don’t have Russian songs then I’ll choose something else, so PLEASE TELL ME DO YOU HAVE RUSSIAN SONGS OR NOT??????

Very disappointed by everything here. Wouldn’t come back or recommend to anyone. Very difficult to communicate with staff and felt pushed out. We paid so much money to come to this karaoke venue, we were put into a tiny room when so many other larger rooms were free. Extra bottles of alcohol were added to the bill too. Avoid at all costs

We had an amazing time doing Karaoke, we'll 100% be back! Service was so fast once ordered using the pad and the staff were super friendly! Thanks for having us!

Don’t work here everybody on one hand was loveley to work with however one lady at the bar, no matter how hard I worked or polite I was whenever I would go over just to collect drinks or ask something she would say “what?!” In an annoyed way like I was a disturbance but didn’t act that way towards other people, I feel like my feelings and concerns were disregarded at this job, aside from this I can tell other people had great experiences so I am still greatful

Lots of fun here again I live the little booths Definitely recommended!

Best friend and I came here for a good time and in our own space we definitely did. The women working there seriously had a problem with us though, from us calling up to query, to entering, to us being there. Really snappy tones and passive aggressive demeanour. Honestly no people skills at all, you'd think we were the worst people on Earth, we were neither drunk nor rude, so I can only conclude they just didn't like us because we're men having fun. Respect to the security man though. What a decent bloke, he seemed like he has to deal with them a lot. Also can the tracks be updated or what? There's like two metal bands on there and the rest is a school disco playlist.

Loved this place haha such fun!

Strange dodgy WiFi and machines. Fun as hell though. Some of the tracks have random Chinese 80s music videos.

Best place to end a night out. Reasonably priced, a great deal on drinks when you book a room and a great private atmosphere.

amazing service from the lovely Casey, food, drinks and interior was absolutely stunning and well worth a go. will definitely be going back, sorry to anyone who heard me belt Girls Aloud x

Alot of stairs and quite pricey but enjoyed it

This place is just fun as all hell.

We called earlier asking if we had to book and they said they weren’t busy. The doorman refused us entry none of us were drunk or intoxicated but he said it was bookings only. I asked if they were busy and he said no. Seems like they just wanted to turn away business which is actually so stupid. Great job to the doorman for losing out on money.

Luke was amazing and really helpful, made our experience great

It's quite expensive, but one of the only places in the North with good karaoke - especially if you want authentic machines. The place is usually quite busy and it can feel quite disorganised, and be careful what you book in terms of how many drinks are included in the price, how long you have etc. But as long as you book carefully, it can be a really fun experience!

We came here lastnight as a party of three. Me and my friends love it here, its loads of fun and plenty of choices in music. One of the main things that made it for us was the main bouncer on the door. I didn't catch his name but he was so welcoming and polite it made us feel safe. It's quite rare to get nice bouncers these days and we felt it was worthy of a review because it made such a different to our night. The downfall was the food and toilets. The fries have way to much salt on we couldn't eat them and the toilets where not up to standard for cleaning at all. We had a few other people from other parties saying the same thing. I didn't want to actually go in them which is not what you want when your out. Overall a great place with great staff but need a few adjustments.

Visited on Friday night and from the start to end was an amazing night the fat bald doorman was polite and made us feel very safe. The receptionist was great the dark haired girl. The ginger waitress was class to. Hopefully make a visit again soon

The staff is so wonderful! Food & drinks are delicious as well, great ambiance and overall lovely experience.

This is my favourite place to go for karaoke in Manchester! Always have a fantastic night!

Terrible choice of songs. We’re in Manchester bot no Smiths, no Stone Roses, limited Oasis, joy Division and New Order No Killers either . Absolute garbage

Amazing experience great for parties, lovely staff

Great place to go if you've had a few drinks and in the party mood.

Great place to scream your lungs out! Did not try the food here however there was a nice smell lingering around. The service was good as expected and the karaoke tech has improved here. This place is definitely fun and the individual boxes are great in size for small to medium groups of people. The only downside was the toilets, with dry puke in urinals.

We entered the premises to be told by the security guy “you’ll have to go back outside until half past”. We informed him that our booking was at quarter past, he said show me your email. Showed him the booking confirmation, he said not that (we didn’t have anything else). He radio’d up to reception and said is there a booking for quarter past. Confirmed yes, so he said right go up. No apology for the way he refused us entry and spoke to us so we made a comment on his behalf saying sorry girls, I was wrong to which he turned around and said you’re not coming in now. Really really bad customer service!

Casey has been the best on the bar! Quick and friendly service every time we’ve been as me and my partners are regulars… Love the whole vibe of K2 and the service. Everyone is always amazing and lovely but Casey tops it off. Always quick with the drinks and food. Best waitress I’ve seen and so sweet to speak to. Love k2 always, my go to place for karaoke for sure.

Jeff was a legend. Great hosts. Great times. I will be back.

Jeff was so nice introducing us to the place had the time of my life. Didn’t even want to go out cos I’m going through a breakup and they really brought us up

Paid around £20 each for drinks and karaoke between 5 of us, very cheap and good range of songs, would recommend

Always fun, the staff are great!

Karaoke at a great price during happy hours. £12 pp with two alcoholic drinks for 2hours. Amazing service from the staff. Only downside is the song selections are quite limited…

We had a fantastic night celebrating my birthday. We are booking again for another birthday celebration at the end of April.

Predatory place that will add extra charges on to the bill hoping you don’t notice

Overpriced and predatory business practice. We were also told it 'would be rare' for them to not have a song but the choice was actually extremely limited.

Drinks are very very expensive. Which on top of the booking we had to pay for made the night very expensive. Service was quick and helpful though at end of night offered little in way of us continuing.

Went here with a friend at 5pm (when it opened) and was quite nervous because of past reviews, but oh my gosh it was amazing! Very polite staff (we were served by the same man for everything and he was lovely), came in just to tell us we had about 5 minutes and to deliver food. Got free drinks too! Such a variety of songs from musicals, Disney, western music, kpop, jpop everything! You'll find something you'll like there. The quality of the rooms are amazing with changing LED lights ! Ours was only a 2 person booth, but was still a fairly big room. We just moved the table closer to the TV and we had some dancing room! Quality of the mics and speakers are so good too, I'd recommend K2 to anyone who loves a good time (and it probably would be just as good to go solo!) A brilliant 2 hours spent and very cheap!

All I can say is that this place is amazing! Went with a group for a birthday celebration and had the best time. Everyone sang a song or two, the choice available is very good, something for even the most reluctant of singers. The staff looked after us really well, drinks flowing all evening! Our booth was great, just the right size for our group. For my first night out in Manchester I had the best time thank you K2. (You don't get your ID scanned they just check it and your bag. The bouncers are all lovely and just doing their job).

My friends and I we celebrate our friends birthday, we were a group of 20 people. The only thing I didn't like, is the feeling of being RUSH OUT the room because there were another booking coming in. I think two hours may sound enough but in reality, you spend one hour accustom to the place, figure out what people is eating and drinking, and the SYSTEM, figure out how it works to play the KARAOKe, you need time to learn how to use it. For what we paid for the room we should have been allowed at least three hours minimum.

Horrible experience Bouncers treated me AWFULLY. Disgusting and hateful behaviour. Very upsetting We cancelled our booking and left

Had a great time here what a laugh

Great place to sing the night away!

Came as Hen Party. They were very accommodating when changing the time of arrival on the day (multiple times!) Had a great time inside, lots of song choices. The food was disappointing, small portions and not everything was available. After ordering, and not all the food came so we had to go see what was going on-only then they told us they didn’t have it so we would have to choose something else. Other than the food, the atmosphere and experience was good!

Booked for 12.15, Sunday 3rd March. Turned up after a night out on Saturday 2nd March to be laughed at about how we'd booked 'for the Sunday night'. They had no sympathy for their own strange rule where they bent the rules of time, then lied to us about a solution. Don't live in Manchester and was excited for karaoke, so gutted and disappointed is an understatement. Don't make the same mistake as us - past midnight bookings still count as the same day ... for some bizarre reason.

Great karaoke place! You book a room just for you so it gives you a private karaoke experience. Delicious drinks. Friendly staff.

Felt dodgy as hell. Felt really uneasy

Nice asian style karaoke place. Happy hour comes with 2 drinks for 2 hours. Very busy on Saturday during CNY but service was still up to speed. Their songs are updated quite regularly with Mandarin, Cantonese, English and Kpop songs (probably other languages as well I didn’t look)

Saturday night. Night before Chinese new year. It was crazy in here. We waited 45 mins before we got into our room to then be told we are in the wrong room and need to move. Moved into another room and there were no mics. They said they'd refund us 50%. It was a bit crazy. We had fun in the end but no mics... Thankfully we have a laugh anywhere but I'd think twice about going again.

K2 Karaoke is amazing, fast service and clean rooms. We had a slight issue with our order but SJ fixed the issue as soon as we brought it to his attention, couldn’t have asked for a better server! I recommend this place, it does get busy on Saturdays and sometimes you have to wait in a q for a while but it’s worth it !! 10/10 thank you SJ!

Great selection of songs, beautifully decorated room, we accidently booked the wrong date but they accommodated us regardless. Security in door made us feel welcome and the person on the desk was really friendly and had a laugh with us

Amazingly better than I thought, lovely vibe and staff were perfectly understanding and 100% recommend

Will not be booking there again. Got it all wrong from the start and then continued to be useless.

Good karaoke equipment and rooms for various group sizes. Confusing pricing structure, requested to see a price list multiple times but was never provided. This is a legal requirement when serving alcohol. Would be better to have the option pay on entry, rather than running up a bill blindly which put a dampner on the evening. Would not return or recommend.

Had a great time, twenty friends and family, not one decent singer, but still fantastic.

amazing atmosphere and very accommodating without a booking!

Great selection of songs! Definitely be back for karaoke.

Gone down hill! Rapidly! Visited last week, had a brilliant time and so I decided to re-book for my birthday (tonight). There were 3 of us in total. When we arrived the door security staff were professional and polite and confirmed our booking. Told us to go to level 3 - lifts were out of action. At the reception they were pretty slow and we were kept waiting. Eventually we were taken to our booth on the next floor and it was freezing cold. There was no heating and the air conditioning unit wasn’t switched on. Sticky floors and people can see into the rooms - quite off putting when people keep looking into the rooms as they pass. The music wasn’t at the correct volume and could hear neighbouring booths. We asked two members of staff if they could put the heating on, they both said yes but there was no heating on! Good job it was cold outside so we had our woolly hats and scarfs!!! We also paid for an hour but got kicked out after 54 mins. I know it’s only 6 mins but we paid for the hour. They can in and said we had 10 mins left when in actual fact we had 15 and then again 6 mins before the time was up we were told our time was up. Such a shame won’t be visiting or recommending anymore.

The venue was fine but LOTS of steps to climb as the karaoke rooms are at least three storeys from the entrance. Don't tempt the climb after too much alcohol! The karaoke machine was set to only play Cantonese music but they came and reset it after 10minutes of Beatles played by oriental 'would be' singers but eventually found normal music. Not many decent artists on display. No Blondie, and many other regular popstar options available so hard to choose much of the music on the machine. Was still a good time had by all and the service wasn't too bad, just ensure you order drinks etc as large and include everybody as service was slow, 20mins for delivery. The corridors on each level is a warren so don't wander too much as you'll soon get lost. Nobody ordered food so can't add any comments but we had all been to Chinatown beforehand so nobody was hungry. Don't think we'll have a repeat karaoke at this venue but will definitely do it again but at a more upmarket venue sometime.

We went for happy hour and received two free drinks. Had a great time

Rude staff - Will just waltz in and interrupt your time and song with no respect for the time your paying for. The rooms are not at all private or soundproof. Would not recommend or go back unfortunately.

Good experience. Place needs some TLC. Floors incredibly sticky and decor coming undone. The tablet was slightly slow and not very streamlined. Doors need not the transparent panel, as it takes away privacy and is unpleasant to see disorderly people looking through the door or trying to stick their heads in. The room is also not soundproofed, but once the music is on, it doesn't make a difference. Overall, it was a fun group activity. P.S. lift was out of order, and the place is on the 3rd floor, so it's definitely not accessible.

the 3 bouncers at the door were extremely rude, as soon as we got in their intimidating attitude was really off putting. They asked for ID which one out of my 2 friends did not have, they told us due to company policy and that we weren’t allowed in. We were very understanding of this and were not being argumentative at all. But their behaviour was very uncomforting and they were allowing all the other people behind us in without asking for ID or if they had a booking. I found this quite bias as we were singled out and my friend without ID was being asked personal questions, which I didn’t understand because we came to a conclusion that we were leaving. Overall, I don’t rate this place. Customer service makes a large difference

So much fun! Drinks are pricey but as expected. Worth a late night visit!

Expensive with lots of hidden service charges, taxes, etc...but probably the best karoke place in Manchester and I would recommend!

Brilliant. Came as a group of 8 and the money which we put down ended up with us having a large tan with the bar. 18 shots 16 bottles of beer and 4 ciders all with the money we paid just to enter. Boothed karaoke, comfy seating, tv with lyrics all very fun! Perfect for team bonding, friendly gatherings, starting the night even date night or girls night! Staff are polite. Please note booths are upstairs 2 levels but there is a lift if accessibility is needed. The rooms may be a little tight for a wheelchair? But you’d be able to get in the room and if necessary move to the seating. We did not have any food unsure this was available?

Very pricey drinks and experience. Small servings of food which consists of deep fried "Chinese" mix. Dirty - sticky floor inside the booth. It's so warm inside that it feels like a sauna. Karaoke floor located at the top of giant staircase and no smoking area other than outside. Good selection of songs though and it has a vibe of East Asian karaoke place.

Horrific costumer service from the start. Extremely rude staff who were very patronising. Extortionate prices for the hour, and they don’t even properly give you an hour, they literally start it as you pay. Definitely overpriced and overrated so I would deffo go somewhere else next time. One member of staff even told me to hold the door. Took the fun out of it really. And the drinks were well beyond normal prices and for the selection not worth the money. The rooms were cramped and at times the microphones didn’t work.

Expensive and middling. There's always a queue to get in and check in, and bouncers can have attitudes anywhere from saintly to rude. Lifts only work sporadically; if you're a wheelchair user or need a lift, it's better to call beforehand to make sure it's actually working as it can be three or more flights of stairs up to the actual booths. We had to wait 15 minutes after getting in for staff to convince the previous booking to leave, meaning I didn't get the full slot I'd paid for. The drinks tablet wasn't working and we had to send people out hunt down busy staff several times to get our drinks. The song tablet would only let us search by artist rather than song title, which wasn't the end of the world, but was annoying. Inside the booth, the leather seat was ripped. I paid the Christmas auto-grat, but it felt cheeky when we'd gotten into the booth 15 minutes after the start of the booking time, had to chase staff down all night, and then were kicked out at the end of our booking on the dot. It was also incredibly hot up there. Do not wear long sleeves!!!! Staff are run off their feet but are still polite and professional; I commend them for their patience in herding drunk people, but also think on busy weekends there should just be more staff in general. (I don't blame the folks working for this; I imagine it comes from higher up in the business.) I don't blame them for adhering to policy, but it was certainly a mess.

Place was really clean and fun. Good music library and service was really good. The rooms were private and enough space to enjoy with friends. They were very accommodating even though some of out party memeber dropped out. The price is really good. Food selection was small but what was had was good quality. I would come here again and would recommend to others. Had a really fun night.

Went for a work due, very good food selection and drinks , service was a bit slow. But it's been Very easy to book through email, had to book a month in advance since we were a big group of 12 people.recommended
