Laif Karaoke Club & Restoran "Monroe" — Restaurant in Tallinn

I would have put 1*, however, the karaoke rised it a bit. What was good: karaoke staff. Although it was quite a long queue to sing, people who worked in karaoke section were good and professional. What was bad: cocktails. After my friends ordered two cocktails, none of them tasted alcohol (I am a certified bartender having over 7 years of experience and know by heart how all ordered cocktails should taste and how much of all ingredients should there be). The waitress said we could come to see whether the alcohol was added or not the next day (which is ridiculous because in all professional places they would apologise , take those full cocktails and make new ones with customers seeing how they were prepared). I was said that I could buy new ones and pay for the bad ones too (nonsense). Moreover, I can say undoubtedly that the glasses were not cooled down and the proportion of the ingredients were a bit weird in them. I got a glass of white wine in a warm glass. Alcohol-free cocktails were too sugary (that mojito was a pain to drink, you need to put less syrup). For the price of the cocktails the garnish could be muuuch better. Another thing what was really bad: cloak room. You cannot actually take your coat to go and smoke outside. When we asked what would they do if the weather was -20C, it was said that they would have given tiny blankets for the outdoors. Weird. And cold. Doesn't make sense.

By the end of this, the bouncer inside(!) started slightly kicking us because there were people coming and he wanted us to leave faster. Overall, I would have visited this place only for karaoke. Wouldn't recommend anything else there. (Plus be prepared for singing and paying for songs, also for paying 8€ to go to the karaoke zone. One song costs 3€).

An update from March 2020: If you are wearing warm jacket (no matter how expensive it is, but if it looks as a normal coat to wear at +2C) and Nike airs, with strick trousers and a shirt, be prepared to not even be allowed to come inside and sing karaoke. Yesterday we were simply turned around and the bouncer said to me directly that my outfit doesn't meet this CLUBS' criteria. Looking at the waiters over there previous time, tipsy international tourists I think that was quite ridiculous to say. Will be contacting the owner...

5/5 – Fun Vibes, Great Food, and Endless Entertainment!

Had such a fun night at this karaoke bar and club! The energy was amazing – music, lights, and good vibes all around. The karaoke setup was top-notch, with a wide song selection and a super lively crowd that made singing even more fun.

I was also surprised by how many food options they had! I ordered pasta, and it was genuinely delicious – perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Whether you’re craving something light or a full meal, there’s definitely something for everyone on the menu.

It’s the perfect spot if you’re looking for a fun night out with friends, good food, and lots of laughs. Definitely...

Shameful attitude, I was with my colleagues and I asked before entering if karaoke was available and the answer was YES.

Once inside, we ordered the drinks and we asked for the Karaoke, that magically became NOT AVAILABLE.

After a very kind request from my side, I was told that it was possible to sing at the Karaoke o ly if we paid FIVE EUROS per each song.

They will never see me or anybody from my company at Laif, avoid this place...
