FamFam Private Room Karaoke

I came here with a group of 10 a few months ago and had an amazing time. But the owners are not accommodating to large groups. PRO TIP: if you want an event for more than 15 people - make separate reservations groups of ~10 ahead of time. You can commingle once there.

We were hosting an event for 25 people (planned months in advance). Per website, $10/hour/person. But if you tell them all 25 people are together, they will gauge you. We ended up paying $250/hour for their “room rental rate” - and ALL being in the same exact room that 10 of us enjoyed. Per website, this large room is for 16-20 ppl “depending on how much you love each other.” In other words - it’s a real tight fit. So why did a group of 25 get forced into this small room, only to result in half the group not being able to participate? (i.e they literally didn’t fit in the room and we took turns standing in the hallway)

We asked several times for two smaller rooms throughout the booking process - but they wanted even more money for that! There was no negotiating the logic of “if we are paying for 25 people, shouldn’t we have space for 25 people in the room(s) we’re renting”?

They knew this was an engagement party to celebrate a destined bride and groom. It was quite a bummer for what should have been such a special night - the first time our bridesmaids and groomsmen got to meet each other!

It would have been much easier and much more enjoyable if we booked as a party of 10 and a party of 15 separately, and gotten two rooms. Their “special rates” for large parties are not special at all. Just stay under the 20-person limit and quietly book through the quirky text system - you’ll save money and have a better time.

Alas, as much as I like small local businesses, I felt the owners had no interest in making our night special- they just wanted to cram us in one space, charge for the headcount even though the headcount couldn’t participate, and rent more rooms to others. Back to Buford Highway for me.
