Jankara Karaoke — Restaurant in Melbourne

It’s one of the only open karaoke bars open, but they close early all the time. I was given trouble for preventing them going home at 11:30 PM, after being denied entry when they closed at 10 PM the week before. Location and bar staff are great, but the big guy (who brags about being there 12 years), makes it his mission to make you feel unwelcome. First visit he got verbally upset after we chose universal songs that all our international group could all enjoy, he took our drinks before finishing them, and shut the bar down early after we paid for more songs. He also denied the second microphone being broken, despite it clearly not working. The second night, he threatened me after adjusting the cables to avoid interference. Even after apologizing repeatedly (after fixing both cables), the guy still threatened to remove me for vandalism while saying my friends were faking it and lip syncing. THIS IS KARAOKE, LET THE PEOPLE SING HOW THEY WANT! However after two nights and many hours, this is the first time I saw two microphones working at once (you’re welcome). I even apologized to the square head once more and he just demonized me. Upon our group being escorted out at 11:30 for ruining his night by playing one more song, he still said I was welcome back, yet just gave me the finger and other sexual derogatory hand signals. Must avoid unless you’re desperate. This place would fall apart if it wasn’t for the innocent Japanese bartender who openly admits her work abuse! At least the breakfast is good, so my...

I recently spent an evening at Jankara Karaoke Bar and it was an absolute blast! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a vibrant atmosphere that set the tone for a fun night. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making sure everyone felt at home.

The song selection was impressive, covering everything from classic hits to the latest chart-toppers. Whether you're a seasoned performer or just looking to have some fun with friends, there's something for everyone. The sound system was top-notch, and the acoustics were perfect, making even the shyest singers sound great!

The drinks were reasonably priced and expertly mixed, with a wide variety of options to choose from. I particularly enjoyed their signature cocktails, which added a unique twist to the night. The bar snacks were also a hit, providing just the right amount of fuel to keep the party going.

One of the highlights of the night was the lively crowd. Everyone was there to have a good time, and the positive energy was contagious. It was easy to join in on the fun, whether singing along from the crowd or taking the stage yourself. The vibe was relaxed and inclusive, making it a perfect spot for both large groups and solo adventurers.

Overall, Jankara delivered an unforgettable karaoke experience. Whether you're looking for a night of laughs, great music, or just a chance to let loose, this is the place to be. I can't...

Ripped off drink prices from what it said on the list!! But expensive in any case,but this place has gone downhill fast!! No professionalism as staff were meant to co-ordinate songs in order of people coming"first in best served"but that didn't happen & was waiting hours when others who came & went didn't have to & then people left when their songs came up. So disappointing. Especially when went 1 night & couldn't get in as there was a long queue & the place was full when security should've been there getting people out who'd been there longer so others can also have their turn without having to wait forever - not get in as they then shut.Need to have more recent songs in the books as they don't have many & haven't added newer songs into either.Other reviews about being dirty is too true!! The tiolets & sticky table if you lucky as other to es the floors &/or seats unclean too which when you're dressed up to go out & namely had a shower prior...
